      AGH! I think my head just exploded! Of course, I'm sure he also believes it is due to farting cows and sun spots ... but, hey, he's miles beyond James Inhofe anyway.

        No, he said he believed in it. He said "See, I do. I believe in it."

          When you refer to anyone that disagrees with you as a "teabagging hick", you make yourself look like a complete loser, Harley. You've made the decision not to debate, just cut someone off at the knees.

            Here's the deal. Why don't the two individuals who kneecapped Harley's post come here and justify their kneecapping instead of being drive-by bomb throwers?

            Seems to me the real losers are the bomb throwers, not Harley. Just saying.

              "kneecaped" Harley's post? Whoever "kneecapped" His post by giving him a thumbs down may have agreed with the content of his post but disagreed with the somewhat graphic, disparaging delivery, typical of Harley.

        Perhaps, but what I took from that clip is O'Reilly stating that "the Pope believes in global warming".

      This is strange, but there have been prior reports that reality has penetrated O'Reilly's armor from time to time. So, he believes in reality -- sometimes. Big deal.

      And, for whatever it's worth, it is sunspots -- or the lack of sunspots -- the reduced solar energy output -- that has accounted for the very slight appearance of cooling for the past decade or so. But still note that eight of the nine warmest years on record have occurred this century. Statistically, 1998 was an anomaly.

      You could tell the Queen of Hate,Laura Ingraham that poop stinks and she would say "Conservative poop dosen't stink no matter how big the pile.I am glad she has to spend some of the commercial time during her show begging for sponsors.What she sells people are not buying as much as they use to.But there is always a market for hate,hopefully a declining one.

      Man, I can't stand Laura Ingraham: another conservative who's a skeptic of global warning (even though there are endless amounts of evidence supporting the theory), yet at the same time is a fundamentalist loon (even though there has never been a shred of scientific evidence proving that God exists). Chris Rock was right about her.

        Bill couldn't care less what Rush thinks. The only thing Rush will get from Bill is the middle finger.

        MMFA had a piece months ago featuring O'Reilly trashing Rush and the other reichie talkers went nuts over it, especially Mark Levin.

      Wait so global warming doesn't exist its just that the temperature is going up...ok. And am I the only one that thinks it strange that America shouldn't cut down on pollution because China and India aren't going to do it so heck if its going to be bad then lets go all out and join with them.

      As if the fact of global warming has anything to do with "belief" anyway.

      Regardless, all this proves is that O'Reilly is only 99% moron.
