Bill O'Reilly as a rapper? Hey, don't blame us, it's his idea-we just ran with it. In the Fox commentator's new children's book, Kids Are Americans Too: Your Rights to a Good, Safe, Fun Life, O'Reilly gets "jiggy with Ben Franklin and Tom Jefferson," waxing poetic about music downloading, whether cops can open school lockers, and if parents can force religion on their children. To wit: "Don't get mad.. Get your rights!..I'm tellin' ya now/Ya gotta know how!" Up next for O'Reilly: a remix with Cornel West. (Just kidding!)
