Did I just hear Bill O'Reilly correctly?

Posted on 06/23/2014 6:07:25 PM PDT by MacMattico

He said something along the lines of "I have been at odds with the right wing talk show guys at times, but it's very possible they've been right about President Obama all along." He's suppose to discuss this tomorrow. I know it's a teaser for tomorrow, but he's really never come out and said this w/ his ass-kissing-to- get- interviews with Obama technique of journalism.

This is hard for O’Reilly.. he’s always had a fondness for Obama.

Folks in the news business, especially the pundits and commentators are entertainers above all else. News and politics is just their genre, like stand up comedy, song and dance, card tricks. It's all an act and may not represent anything close to what they believe in private. The numbers of real conservatives on television today can probably counted on one hand, two at most.

I couldn’t tell you. I stopped watching that blowhard in 2004 when he said the Swift Boat Vets had no right to be heard.

Yep... and pumping the 'nativist' theme...

*PLONK* Ain't watched Fox News since.

he would never log on.

He went on air to proclaim FR a hate website on par with the usual liberal hate pits.

When the "examples" he used to prove his claim were shown to be erroneous, he refused to apologize.

That was one of the many nails in his coffin. His defense of Dan Rather has not been mentioned but will not be forgotten.

Interesting.

Just the other day, my wife - who isn’t really ‘political’ asked why no one has yet “gotten rid of his ass”. She then asked why Clinton could be impeached for screwing women while 0bama is screwing US while ruining the country, and no one is doing anything to remove him from office.

She isn’t quite what I would call a “low information voter”, but it was still intriguing to hear such talk coming from her.

We used to love FNC and obaxter. I even ordered one of his signed books to give to my husband for Father’s Day.

Then he interviewed rosie odonut and changed his mind about homosexuals... he realized that they are just normal people who want to get married and raise children like everyone else.

That’s when we stopped watching.

He’s a little late to the party. I dropped tv over two years ago. I was at someone’s house and saw some of Big Head Ted Baxter’s show. How the bleepity bleep did I ever watch that guy? He loves himself quite a lot.

he has been weak for a long time. Against the death penalty and he has been softballing the guest for years.

Please politely inform your wife that clinton wasn’t impeached for “scr3wing women”; he was impeached for lying under oath. :)

Ted Baxter wises up? What a joke. He’ll still be the same buffoon he’s always been

BOR is a moron.

He is a blowhard and I disagree with him on a lot of things, and always assumed he was one of these barely competent people who has nice hair that likes to be on TV. But I read not too long ago that he got a 1580 on his SAT (out of 1600), so I have to believe that he is pretty damn smart. In the same article, it said that Rush got 1550, which is easier to believe, but which is the opposite of the liberal caricature of him.

If Obama guard dog OReilly has been reading FR, he knows that he’s got to start covering his tracks.

I doubt the veracity of what you read. People who get 1580 on their SAT do not go to Marist College.

Did you ever hear his radio show?

BRUTAL!!!

Without a teleprompter, he was hopeless. “Um ... ahhh ... y’know ...” over and over. Somebody that awful behind a mic would not be allowed to read the P.A. announcements in an elementary school. He’d get “The Light” @ any open mic.

Radio is not as easy as it sounds. Ask Alec Baldwin. I have a feeling this creep Rogers is in for a comeuppance.

I read that Chuckie Schumer got 1600. If so, he cheated.

Bill O' Really didn't even know the MSM was totally on the left's team...until a few years ago.

Bill is so out of touch...it's not even a question.

I’m so old I remember when MTV played music, the Weather Channel showed the weather, the History Channel showed history — and Fox News offered a real alternative to the alphabet networks.

“I read that Chuckie Schumer got 1600.”

Apparently, that is true. High school valedictorian, Harvard College, Harvard Law. But leftists with those credentials are a dime a dozen, and prove that all of that doesn’t mean diddly.

William lost all respect when he answered a note from an elderly lady before the first election. His condescending remarks were uncalled for. When speaking it was apparent he was laughing at a fearful woman. She saw the creature for what he was and like many of us, she feared for her country. Tho the man is still watched, his words do not carry the weight they once did. Bill sucks when he should blow.
