Just kidding. LOL. Your post is actually dead-on. To sum up: Bill O'Rielly is a hypocrite.
AND CAPTAIN OBVIOUS SPEEDS AWAY HAVING SAVED YET ANOTHER THINKING PERSON FROM HAVING TO ENGAGE YET ANOTHER CONSERVTAIVE IN AN UNECCESSARY AND TEDIOUS DEBATE!!!
(I really shouldn't put so much crack in my morning coffee.)
That is exactly right. In addition to his swipe at comedians, O'Reilly has also said anti-war movies, GE and Sheehan's words are responsible for soldiers' deaths. He's said rappers' lyrics are responsible for violence and crime.
Yet O'Reilly thinks that his words are not accountable. Just once I'd like to see a guest throw these accountability inconsistencies back in his face.
And if he still thinks his words played no part in the violence against Tiller, then O'Reilly needs to apologize to Sheehan, rappers, GE, DePalma, Cuban and many others for his claiming that they are accountable for their words.
Someone needs to call O'Reilly a hypocrite right to his face. Too bad FOX News doesn't have any liberals on staff that have the guts to call out O'Reilly on his double standards.
That doesn't happen. What a straw man argument, Bill.
That was not happening. Dr Tiller never took fetuses out of women's wombs for trivial reasons, so solely to get $5000 from those women. Also, a legal abortion is not an execution. An execution is of a living person. Fetuses are not people.
Why do you have to lie in order to try to sustain your position, Bill? Why do you change the definition of words, Bill? It's not murder, and Dr Tiller wasn't a baby killer.
If you were simply calling Timmer by the name others used, a reasonable person would have said, every time, that "of course Dr Tiller is NOT a baby killer. He's not killing anyone, since killing implies illegality and late term abortions are legal in Kansas, and he's not killing ANY babies."
But you didn't say that. You never said anything like that. So yeah, you WERE calling him "Tiller, the Baby Killer."
Because the way he's phrasing it, he thinks that ALL late-term abortions are evil, but then keeps making it look like it's only casual abortions that he has a problem with.
You can't have it both ways.
O'Reilly deceptively tries to use words that shore up his view but then has the gall to claim to Mary Sanchez of the Kansas City Star (see other MM video) that he doesn't use semantics. Give me a break.
It's crazy that he still opens his show with "you're about to enter the no spin zone" when he uses spin all the time. O'Reilly is such a fraud.
Goebbels would be jealous at the propaganda that O'Racist and Faux spews.
Proud, definitely.
You may not have pulled the trigger, Bill, but you handed the ammo to an assassin.
Including the one he asked seven times. O'Reilly just didn't care for the answer, because it made his question, and him, look stupid.
She did, even the really stupid ones. BilldO, however, closed the interview by completely cutting & running from Walsh's question, instead telling her that "he knows where she's coming from".What does that mean, BilldO?

Why do liberals go on his show? You can't "win" against this guy, and his septuagenarian audience will take their idiot opinions to the grave. Just let the guy fade away.
O'Reilly just wanted blood and a pound of flesh in asking Joan Walsh to appear. Frankly, she stood up better than I thought, but she knew she was going in as a sacrifice. I'm glad she stood up for her beliefs, as much as she was caving to O'Reilly's accusations. I don't think she went in looking to "win" as much as she was looking to get the last word.
I was actually talking to someone earlier about how I can't believe guys like him haven't stroked out yet from their rants.
What a comment considering virtually every aspect of life in some ways is based on popularity. Movies, TV, music, everyday businesses like restaurants etc , etc, etc. And how about elections, aren't they just another popualrity contest? You probably love to point out that obama won the election. But when the left gets their butt kicked in the news ratings , you conveniently ignore that. The fact is that if liberal talking heads had anything interesting to say they would do better. But they don't.
Bring back the fairness doctrine, we need to get on the air somehow!
Don't worry, they will.
It is interesting, though, that refusing to grant the right a near monopoly on speech over the PUBLIC AIR WAVES is considered by the poor, downtrodden dears as an unfair burden on them. How are they ever to win an argument on public policy if the OTHER SIDE is also given access? It infringes on their right to be the only voice heard, for God's sake!
Fauxliberal - when is your side going to grow a pair?
Easy, with your prophetic powers completely in tune, Allow me to do the honors: fairliberal, you are a moron!
Anyone who is serious about movies, music or food, runs from the popular.
This is what O'Reilly said and he has to live with it. Anybody who does not stop Tiller has blood on their hands as Sebelius does. This is the statement that he has to live with and should have thrown back in his face over and over again (just as he should the death mill comments and the rest). I know I have said this before but it needs repeating.
And you "fair"-liberal have to live with the fact that you not only excuse, but defend this behavior. Defend it even after a man was murdered in his own church. The is the human being that you have become in order to justify and defend and apologize for these people. You have sold your soul just as O'Reilly has. The idea of shame no longer even occurs to you.
We as a country must decide to push these people to the fringe where they belong - we can no longer afford to have O'Reilly, Beck, nor their defenders like "fair"-liberal to be considered anywhere near the mainstream just because it's funny to laugh at their ignorance and their obstinance. In this country, we do not advocate assassinations of people doing things that we WISH were illegal. That is now how this country works and this line of thought cannot be mainstream if we are to continue as a robust democratic republic.
If you disagree with a law - get enough votes to vote in the lawmakers and leaders to get the law changed. Do not advocate that "if the state of Kansas doesn't stop this man, then anybody who prevents that from happening has blood on their hands as the governor does right now, Governor Sebelius". And then act as if you have clean hands when that man is murdered. And do not defend the man who makes these statement and incites this activity by using ratings as your defense. That is truly disgusting. As if all things can be excused because two million people watch me every night. That is no justification for a man of integrity or honor. Unfortunately, O'Reilly and his defenders have neither.
what does obama winning the election have to do with bill oreilly?
im actually quite aware of the news ratings that oreilly memorizes and pats himself on the back for every single day. thats the problem... all the far right has are its high ratings on radio and cable news to be proud of. they certainly dont have anything to be proud of when running the country.
like the right has so much to talk about thats even halfway interesting? all they do is scare their listeners/viewers with fear mongering, propaganda and lies. hell, even people like oreilly throw in producer stalking to keep it exciting. they serve no useful purpose other than that, and many of their watchers are too blind to see it. god for bid you should do anything on fox news that has substance.
oh yeah, the great fairness doctrine. the evil liberal plan created to get rid of right wing radio guys, right? good one.
And I am still waiting to see you actually refute anything.
Who knows. Maybe O'Reilly is just taking a victory lap now that Dr. Tiller has been murdered in church before moving his crosshairs to someone new. Maybe he needs some time to come up with synonyms for killer, murderer, or butcher that rhyme with the family name of his next target. Or maybe he's just a gutless and morally bankrupt man with a TV show who decided he would attack Dr. Tiller -- a man who risked his life and finally gave his life because he believed he was helping women who otherwise might have sought dangerous ways to abort their pregnancies -- from the safety of a guarded TV studio.
If you're fishing for someone to say that O'Reilly went after Dr. Tiller because he performed many late term abortions, I'm afraid the reason no one is biting on the line is because that's hardly sufficient explanation. Dr. Tiller was actively and bravely helping women who exercised their legal right to decide whether or not to carry pregnancies to term, and protecting women whose healths were endangered. Dr. Tiller put the lives, legally protected freedoms, and healths of pregnant women above the lives of the fetuses they carried. And I think that's what really irked O'Reilly.
Go peddle your concern trolling somewhere where it will fall on open ears, like FreeRepublic. You know FreeRepublic, don't you? It's a site you claim as proof for your moronic arguments, and it's where the Holocaust museum murderer (who was a member) posted his criminal ideas because the other members were sympathetic to his insanity.
You'll fit right in there.
It will be good to hear your proof of your baseless claim (that is what MMFA likes to call opinions they don't agree with).
And by the way, if you had paid attention (which you obviously didn't )), I said we would all be waiting for your expert opinion.
So was it doctored, or are you just blowing smoke again?
You and your fellow reich-wing GOPig terrorists murder people you disagree with. Yeah, how so "genteel", you Anti-American terrorist.

J$, do you get off to O'Racist or Gibson first thing in the morning?

He never posed the questions 3x in this past fridays interview. In the clip above he edits it to give the appearance that he asked 3x and did not. I ask MMoA to bring this to everyone s attention.
Oh, right. None at all.
Such as O'Reilly's defense of himself here.
