BRING ON BILL (Kerry/Bill O'Reilly)
New York Post ^ | 10/08/04 | DON KAPLAN

Posted on 10/07/2004 11:45:13 PM PDT by kattracks

October 8, 2004 -- JOHN Kerry wants to meet Fox News Chan nel's Bill O'Reilly — on the air, in O'Reilly's "no spin zone."

"I'd love to do 'O'Reilly,' " Kerry tells the Oct. 24 issue of TV Guide. "I have no problem with that."

O'Reilly, who interviewed George W. Bush last week, has already extended a similar in vitation to Kerry, but when the maga zine told Kerry about O'Reilly's invite, he said no one in his cam paign told him about it.

"Oh, really? I wasn't aware of that. I like Bill O'Reilly. I think he does a terrific job. I think he's got a very good show."

Kerry said he'd consult his advisers about appearing on the high-rated Fox News Channel show before the Nov. 2 election.

"I'll ask my people what the schedule is. I don't know why I wouldn't. He's a fair interviewer in my judgment."

O'Reilly told The Associated Press he'd been trying for about two months to book Kerry. (Kerry said he was unaware of any invitation.)

O'Reilly said he sensed some internal debate within the Kerry campaign about whether that would be wise.

It would be a trip into hostile territory, at least as far as the audience is concerned.

O'Reilly wants that interview so bad he would agree to any conditions I'd bet. He, like most of the media stay awake at night dreaming of hosting the interview that swings a national election.

"I'd love to do 'O'Reilly,' " Kerry tells the Oct. 24 issue of TV Guide. Unfortunate choice of words, Sen. Kerry. Won't work well in flyover country, and would make your running mate jealous!

OK, just kidding, but it would be an interesting show to watch, Mr. Ego vs Senator Nuance!

Bill can ask him the hard questions, and Kerry can lie. It's a match made in spin heaven.

Get ready for Bills new "must have" factor gear. Barf bags.

If he will just ask him to sign form 180, it will all be worth it. Bring one out of his jacket pocket and hand him a pen.

the very idea that OReilly is BEGGING this traitor is disgusting in its own right.....I know why OReilly dogged the Swift Boat Vets, because he himself was a coward and doesnt want anyone to go digging up facts on his none service....thats all that is...you could tell the night he was on 60 minutes when he was asked about them, he was hiding something.....
This SOB is hated in the Liberal media.....if he thinks he is doing himself any favor by getting Kerry on his show, he really needs to check into the local nut house and take up residence....who is going to watch him, after this stunt?? not a real Republican thats for sure....

I just sent him an email, NOT THAT HE CARES OF COURSE, and told him what a nerve he has "begging" this traitor to come on his show and the gall to even LET him be ON NOW if he accepts....the very idea that anyone thinks we are stupid enuff to believe "Kerry had no idea he had been asked" is so insulting .. Kerry will lie about ANY LITTLE THING, this, the color of his skin, ANYTHING.....how in the HELL does ANYONE think this lying traitor SOB could lead our country...he is NOTHING, shallow, filled with whatever pablum is set for the day with Dem Talking points.....OReilly is going to have a show "AFTER" this election......he better remember that....

Al Franken has bet him a million bucks he can't prove he was from Levit Town, or something like that.

A million dollar bet from Al Franken? Has Bill responded to this? If he has, I haven't heard it.

As Gretta would say, "Wutzup withat?

Kerry has no intentions on going on the BOR show, but he is is pretending by saying that he might to dangle a carrot in front of BOR, so that BOR won't say anything negative about him. BOR is being used.

I suggest we Freep the deal by sending O'Reilly one marshmallow wrapped in a Form 180 with a yellow Post-it Note, inscribed "Fair and balanced--you make the choice."

Wouldn't that be a kick in the nuts?

Are there Forms 180 available for downloading on the Internet?

A most brilliant suggestion!

Have you sent this idea to O'Reilly?

It just could be put up or STFU time for the Senator in Absentia...

Right. We want the form 190 signed. And BOR, don't forget Theresa's tax returns. If she wants to be the trusted first lady then we should know of any holdings of hers that would influence our Senator Absentia's decisions.

Right, putting Kerry on a Fox program would give their campaign convulsions.

ABC, say what you will about BOR, he isn't "begging" Kerry. If anything he's been taunting him and his campaign people to come on the air with him. Challenging Kerry to come on his show is not begging.

BOR said on the air many times that if Kerry doesn't come on The Factor it'll cost him the election. (And no, I don't know what's been happening of late with BOR and the Swifties and/or the softness toward CBS. It has been sickening)
