Texas hard rock band DROWNING POOL has taken exception to recent on-air remarks by Fox News commentator Bill O'Reilly that he and is one of only two "celebrities" to support the troops via the USO. The group said in a press release, "This is simply (and sadly, typically) absolutely false. A number of musical artists, actors and comedians have done troop tours via the USO, including DROWNING POOL, who have visited the troops and performed for them on three separate occasions. Additionally, the band have donated a portion of all of their U.S. tour revenues to the USO and to other causes that support the troops."

In response to the "false" allegations by Bill O'Reilly, DROWNING POOL has created a two-minute video message, which can be viewed below.

I laughed.

Never been a fan (though I still feel bad about them losing their first singer).

Bill O'Reilly caters to Deep South and Mid West Republicans who long for the Leave it to Beaver/Andy Griffith Show era. I give Bill's ticker another 10 years max.

Wow this is really weird, we just got Sky TV (which for Americans I guess is something like cable? I don't know that's just a word I hear on The Simpsons ;P) and I've been watching the Fox News Channel for the first time. Man this guy, I can't watch his show for more than 10 minutes before I feel like screaming at the TV, but hey guess that keeps people tuned in.
