O'Reilly is a conservative.
But he's a conservative with a job that requires him to follow a middle of the road "centrist" philosophy.
I think he's waiting for real blood to hit the water before swarming, but at the moment it is a "he said, they say" match.
O"Reilly is NOT a conservative.
"but at the moment it is a "he said, they say" match."
But in the "No Spin Zone" it is the Swift Boat Vets who are the bad guys.
"at the moment it is a "he said, they say" match."
Kerry could prove his side by releasing ALL his military records. Why doesn't he?
Anyone with any common sense knows the answer: that what's in those records would prove what the SwiftVets are saying, and thus would be much worse for Kerry, than the words of the Vets.
Does anyone really think, that if Kerry's records would DISPROVE the "allegations" of the SwiftVets he wouldn't release them?
O'Reilly wasn't born yesterday. Why isn't he calling for Kerry to release his records to prove his side?
Hardly!
I'll grant you that he is not a liberal, but he is certainly not a conservative.
What he is would be best described as a populist. He is a centrist populist who try's like hell to straddle the fences between the parties.
This way, he can go either way without anyone having a clue. This works for politicians and it seems to serve him well as a news talking head.
My guess, is that he voted for Gore, but will not vote for Kerry. But that is just my guess.
"O'Reilly is a conservative'.
Nah, the bloviator is a mugwump.
His mug on one side of the fence and his wump on the other.
Blessings, Bobo
Well if nothing else he's certainly moved away from his outright dismissal of the Swifties' claims a few nights ago.
He is NOT a conservative and HE HAS SAID THIS REPEATEDLY. He has said, point blank, "I am not a conservative".
