Bill O'Reilly Is a Boob
The other night an aquaintance of mine named Dave Kopel (pronounced Co-puhl) was on Bill O'Reilly's show. The topic was a recent sex-ed conference at a Boulder, Colorado high school. I've never been a fan of O'Reilly, but he was so wrong on this story, and so arrogant in his bluster, that I really enjoyed Dave making him look like an arrogant boob. Here's the link to the YouTube clip:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=aql3KPnDJwA BTW Bill... it's always nice when you know how to pronounce the name of your guest. And calling Dave Kopel a "secular progressive" is laughable. He's a highly spiritual man who probably fits the libertarian label more than anything else.

I saw this on the show. That Kopel guy made O'Reilly look like an idiot.

I was watching Countdown yesterday where O'Reilly hasn't apologized or corrected his story for his part in the slandering of Judge Murphy who received death threats and had his career ruined for alleging he said something about a rape victim that he never said. At least Olbermann apologized for the media.

An actual friend of mine (as opposed to an aquaintance) named Jim Geraghty was on O'Reilly's radio show during the 2004 election. They got into it about something or other, but at the end of the interview O'Reilly said something like, "I'll at least give you the last word, Jim." To this day I've never forgiven Jim for failing to reply, "That last word, Mr. O'Reilly... is falafel."

I guess I'm a poor excuse for a conservative since I don't know jack squat about the guy. I don't think I've seen more than 20 minutes of his show, and that's been with no sound on at the gym.

Seriously... you might check out my blog. I redesigned it a few weeks ago to focus on "nanny state" issues. It's no Reason Hit 'n' Run, but it might be somewhat up your alley.

Dola,
like Bucc - I'd be more interested if you were more Dick Armey and less Tom De Lay (not that I think you are the latter). If you don't mind my asking though - didn't you mention here that you were a speaker at one of those "Defense of marriage cuz gay people are ruining it rallies"? |

O'Reilly serves a purpose. He's a crusader, a much needed hammer for traditional values in a cess-pool of secular progressives like the bought-and-paid-for by George Soros lefties (MSNBC, NBC news, CBS news, N.Y. Times...).
O'Reilly is flawed, but he really does look out for kids. Jessica's Law is touted by him (rightly so) as his finest achievement. He is not always right, being wrong on supporting the failed immigration bill, but his ratings dwarf all other cable talking heads. Like O'Reilly says himself, there is a 'culture war' and he is out to 'win.' |

Jerry Springer used to get unreal ratings too....that's not saying much.
O'Reilly is a proven liar and gets caught often, up to and including his resume stating that he won the prestigious Peabody award of which he did not: http://www.buzzflash.com/interviews/...2_franken.html some of the "Lefty" references you touted above, have in fact, won Peabody awards. Be careful who you say is a crusader for your cause as their fall could damage that cause no matter how noble it is.... but who am I trying to tell, BW wont listen or respond to anything anyways. MO's rarely change and BW is steadfast. By the way, BW, There are many people who have "looked out for kids" that turned out to be scum, one of which was the head of the largest Evangelical organization in the country.

Bill O'RLY's role in the culture war is to shoot himself in the foot repeatedly and then trying to claim conscientious objector status.

Bill O'Reilly doesn't bother me most times, but when he gets all hot and bothered he loses objectivity rather easily. It's a pretty major flaw, but overall I still find him an interesting and sometimes insightful commentator.

I'm torn on what Olbermann does with regards to O'Reilly. I love when he goes after him because, in comparing smarts, O'Reilly doesn't even bring a knife to the gun fight. But it does make Olbermann seem a bit petty in his sniping. SI

Keith Olbermann has got to be the singular, most bought-and-paid for by George Soros (the anti-christ) talking head ever to appear on television. The strongest evidence for this is his ratings, he has none, hence this can be the only possible explanation for his continuing existence and survival on air. I don't think I have ever heard one original thought voiced by Mr. Olbermann, whose entire act appears to be as a Soro's meat puppet spouting every single possible far-left talking point without deviation...wrapped up of course in some really bad snarky schtick written for him by others to read off the teleprompter. I am, however, occassionally amused by Mr. Olbermann's obsessive fetish for two things: 1. Talking about Bill O'Reilly and 2. Pronouncing the President's last name as often as possible to beat the viewer over the head with the obvious double endentre of it. These seem to be the default bedrock of Mr. Olbermann's nightly telecasts and are always good for a few laughs at him, not his targets. |

Uhhh, Olberman is often the highest rated show on MSNBC.
Your obsession with George Soros is funny.

The ratings I've seen have either Mathews or Olberman as the top rated show depending on the day. Olberman may get a small rating compared to all of the shows on, but MSNBC would take a ratings hit if they replaced him.
I find it very funny how Soros has become this boogeyman. He's a rich guy that funds a lot of groups that he believes in. There are a number of those guys on the right, but because he's the most prominent funder of left leaning groups he's the anti-christ. This obsession with Soros is just another sign of how bankrupt the conservative movement has become.
