Stupid publicity to get people to watch is moronic show. I bet ratings have been dropping for him when people began to see that he is full of trash.

As a commentator, he can tell people to shut up as much as he wants. But I've never heard him refuse to answer a question. He's never been afraid to give his opinion and make an argument for why he is right.

This thread is just full of the spirit of Democracy...

Time to move to Uganda.
If he ever won I think I'd voluntarily have my citizenship revoked.
But yes, if that guy becomes President, I'm moving to Canada.

He walked out of an interview with NPR recently and refused to answer questions. Just like a whiny little chicken-sh!t. Oh yeah, he's not afraid.

A lot of them said that if Bush were to win. Like it or not the Liberals aren't any more tolerant than the Conservatives.

"Never said it. You can't find a transcript where I said it."

"The Mission Accomplished banner was simply acknowledging the USS Abraham Lincoln."


It's a tossup.

(Bush) Self righteous, lacks intellectual curiosity, history of substance abuse vs. (O'Reilly) self righteous, lacks intellectual curiosity, history of abusive language . . . tough choice.

O'Reilly looks for facts (evidence) that confirm his beliefs . . . in my book that makes him just as retarded as our current commander-in-chief.

what's wrong w/ the current democratic candidates? there's like 9 or 10, i'm sure there's ONE that isn't all that bad and that all of you who scrutinize the 10 can identify w/. Or would you rather have a democratic candidate that's really a republican? In that case, you can always vote for general clark.

Substitute "Hillary" for "O'Reilly" and you'd be saying the same thing you hypocrite.

Oh really? That's awfully impressive that you can see into the future and know what I would write... I don't know why you waste your time on these boards when you could make millions being a fortune teller.

Suggestion: the next time you call some one a hypocrite, you better have proof, not a hunch.

For all of those pondering ritual suicide or emigration to Zimbabwe, where was the outrage when Al Sharpton declared he was running for president?
Sharpton scares me much more than O'Reilly.......

There is nothing wrong with O'reilly and i think the quote in the first post is accurate. Most people dont know anything. And Bill O'reilly is far from right-winged as was stated watch his show he uses commen sense and facts to rach his conclusions

Um...didn't you declare Reagan the "greatest President of the 20th century" the other day? That pretty much tells me everything I need to know about you, Opie.

Well, Al Sharpton has a great sense of humor and even he knows he has NO CHANCE of being elected.

O'Reilly is a bully with a pulpit. Have you read Franken's book? The internet is full of stories about O'Reilly who thinks God gave him something special other than an open mouth and closed mind. Please, O'Reilly is the worst of the talk radio type screemers.... Here's an experiment for you. The next time you watch the Fox Cartoon Network turn the sound off and watch O'Reilly's face. His mother was Rosemary!!! :)

The last Dick I choose for President was Dick Nixon.

I don't want another Dick in office.

Good thing you judge people before you get to know them... this conversation pretty much tells me everything I need to know about you.

Obviously another who hasn't spent the time listenting to him.
Read all the stories you want on the internet. Read as much Al Franken as you want. It doesn't make you understand anything about him unless you actually take the time to listen.

You've obviously spent way too much time being brainwashed by the Communist News Network.

Well I have watched him a lot and when I watch the News it is usually Fox News and in my opinion over the last year or so he has seemed to lost his Objectivity and has become more of a Srceamer and a Red Ass. It does seem to me that he has really gotten full of himself which is a shame because when I first started to watch him I thought his show was about the only thing Fair and Balanced about the Fox News Network.

BTW the reason I prefer Fox is because they are so blatant about their bias and I find it extremely entertaining where as CNN for the most part is drab and boring.

Of course I don't think he would be any worse than the NeoCons Front man in the White House or the nondescript Democratic Candidates vying for their parties nomination
