20071026_orielly_240x320.jpgHas anyone else been noticing that certain words are being thrown around again in the weirdest of ways? We keep hearing Ann Coulter talk about the “intolerant left” and now this:

Bill O’Reilly had a conversation with Dennis Miller, you know, in front of actual people, that kind of made our collective mouths drop open.

Of course he’s upset that J.K. Rowling outed an old gay wizard during an event at Carnegie Hall. We're all upset by it. We were really happy with our delusions that fictional characters don't think about other dudes that way. Here, now we present to you -- (via Dlisted) the actual transcript. Wow.

O’REILLY: Here’s — you can talk about this on your radio show tomorrow. There are millions of Americans who feel that the media and the educational system is trying to indoctrinate their children to a certain way of life, and that includes parity for homosexuals with heterosexuals. And that’s what this Rowling thing is all about, because she sells so many books. So many kids read it, that she comes out and says, “Oh, Dumbledore is gay, and that’s great.” And this — it’s another in the indoctrination thing. That’s what the belief system is among some Americans.

MILLER: I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think you can indoctrinate a kid into being gay. You might indoctrinate him into trying it once and him going, “I guess I’m not gay.”

O’REILLY: No, but tolerance. It’s — you know, he’s not going to be gay, but it’s tolerance of it.
