O'Reilly Factor 4/21/08
O'Reilly Factor | 4/21/2008 | Self

Posted on 04/21/2008 5:37:43 PM PDT by dbacks

I just listened to 10 minutes of the most blatant lies I have ever heard. BO, stated that the oil companies were keeping the price of oil up by not building new refineries or looking for alternate sources of energy.

Both are lies on the face.

1) Oil companies and many other businesses have been trying to get permits to build for years but are not allowed.

2) Should one business look for another which would cost a fortune to the end of putting it out of business.

His answer to high gas prices is to boycott "BIG OIL". That ploy has been shown to be stupid by ALL leading economists for the past 2-3 years.

Could someone PLEASE transcribe the first 10 minutes of his show and put it on here? It is enough to make you puke.

The body lingo segment made me ill...when analyzing Barry’s gestures that were hardly presidential, Tanya said the crowd loved him because he seemed “so powerful.”

His ‘body language’ segment is the biggest single waste of video signaling on TV today. It contains less true content than the View or Opera. Even Katie Couric is better! Have you ever noticed all of the blond bombshells that support him are nothing but “YES broads?

FOX has truly gone to hell in the proverbial hand basquet!

O’Reilly is a boob who fancies himself a great thinker.

He pompously told Juan Williams that if Obama would call him he could give Obama the key to ridding him of his Wright/Ayers baggage.

What an idiot.

Nobody is going to get rid of Obama’s baggage. He won't even denounce those radicals in any way.

What's next, suggest Obama get a quickie divorce from his Marxist, harpy wife?

The trouble is not with his associates, but that those associations and his lame defense of them has unmasked him and exposed him as a doctrinaire, radical socialist.

I saw O’reilly’s spittle-flecked rant about “Big Oil” and LOL at it. He is truly ignorant about many subjects, but economics is probably his worst area. His whole show keeps appealing to a lower and lower common denominator, maybe he's afraid of olbermann, who has about 1/3 of his numbers. Whatever it is his “body language”, “culture quiz”, and other recent stuff is as childish as his penchant for using archaic words to look smart.

His screaming fit about the oil companies was something that would have been right at home on the farthest-left talkshows and websites. Juan Williams was right there agreeing with him on the next segment. I had hopes that Kinky Friedman would tell him to shove it, but Kink was too smart to play O's game.

Actually, did you catch Megyn Kelly get short with him tonight over the way he refused to let her make her point! I loved it, and Megyn, if you're lurking here, you're my dream-girl!

I’ve been saying here for YEARS that O’Reilly is a moron. He hasn’t a clue on how a business is run.

BTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Latest reports on gas mfg..
The oil refineries are now changing to summer fuels and, this is the time of the year they update their refineries with maintenance.

The oil Co’s. can of course cause delays in out put of gas mfg.

I can see no incentive for any oil cos. wanting to build more oil refineries’ unless we start drilling oil here in America.

Megyn is OK, I spoze but Martha MacCallum is a top notch beauty. Her mouth is just plain sexy. Woof!

Good grief... you guys are shooting BOR down pretty hard.

How about all the good things he has done?

He has broadened the audience for conservative radio and television shows.
He did an enormous amount of good after 9/11 when he held the charities feet to the fire making sure they did the right thing.
He brings a lot of issues to the forefront and keeps updating his audience on issues we feel are important.

If you don’t like him - TURN THE CHANNEL!

Keith Olbermann and Nancy Grace are on at the same time.
Watch them.

Now I see where you are coming from - I shall ignore all of your future posts.

You can't possibly see beyond their looks to see the quality of their contribution.

That is an incredibly sad and sexist viewpoint.

How would you like it if you were judged, not by the content of your work, but by your hairstyle?

Start thinking with the head on your shoulders.

And you are a blithering idiot.

The OP commented on Megyn Kelly's features, and I responded with my assessment of Martha. She is also a very good news reader.

And please, please ignore my posts. Are you one of the ugly feminists that embrace the feminist movement so you might have a tiny voice in society? I bet you look like Maddy Albright!

He's just repeated the same socialist tripe in his latest Townhall.com column. classic left wing conspiracy theory, with ample portions of envy, economic ignorance, and communism thrown in for good measure.

Ever since he was caught discussing loofas with his female employee, he's been attempting to make himself more popular by being stridently bipartisan. Unfortunately, in this country at this time "bipartisan" means "Democrat".

Memo to O'Reilly:

1. "Big Oil" is not owned by tycoons lighting their cigars with hundred dollar bills. It's owned mostly by mutual funds and pension funds. In other words, "the folks", saving for or trying to live in retirement.

2.Oil is a fungible commodity, freely traded on world markets. If evil business man "X" "gouges with an unwarranted high price, everyone will by from businessman "Y".

3. Sounding like a Democrat will not make them love you. They will still hate you.

DishNetwork's two cheaper packages offer CNBC or Fox News, not both. I dumped Fox in favor of Kudlow on CNBC and have not missed it for a moment.
