Bill O'Reilly Likes Vermont Again
Reported by Deborah - August 18, 2007 -
Residents of Vermont can breathe easy now after Bill O'Reilly said, "I like Vermont" while pleasantly ridiculing the state during the Ridiculous Items segment, 8/16/07. It seems all it took to change Bill's mind was some maple syrup and a pat on the back from Vermont Lieutenant Governor, Brian Dubie.
BOR opened with, " President Bush has visted 60 countries and 49 states" except for Vermont. There was a picture of Bush up with the snarky chyron "Still One Left". He admitted with a sly smile that he had been tough on Vermont because of their media and Jessica's Law but proclaimed as if surprised, "I like Vermont"
BOR happily shared that Vermont Lt. Governor, Brian Dubie paid him a visit adding that Dubie is " a pro-life Republican" and not only does Dubie support Jessica's Law, he also brought Bill some Maple Syrup. According to BOR this proves there is "diversity" in a state with Senators like Bernie Sanders and Patrick Leahy
Now everyone has permission to visit Vermont without guilt. We can marvel at the fall foliage, ski our favorite slopes and gorge on Ben & Jerry's ice cream. Best of all, Vermonters can once again hold their heads high with hope in their hearts because they know President Bush will finally pay them a visit.
