Always wondered about that guy. Now all we freepers know. Big disappointment.

Fox News Commentator Bill O'Reilly comes out with some surprising comments. He says he is pro-gun control, anti-death penalty, for civil unions and for gay adoption... And he won't necessarily vote for President Bush in November.

None of this surprises me, having heard about O'Reilly's hickeyfest on Michael Moore's voluminous butt.

Considering that I got two copies of O'Reilly's book a few years back, I won't have to worry about kindling for the fireplace this year.

He's auditioning for Dan Rather's job.(he only looks out for himself, Fox was just a stepping stone to the MSM).

I didn't need 60Minutes to tell me this - Mr. Bill has openly said all this on his show. It should be no surprise to anyone who watches him regularly at all.

[DAC22]

My friends, if true, this is a O'Reilly resume, No if ands or buts to take the dear departing Dan's job. O 'Reilly lowered himself to the point of total loathing in his pathetic attempt to move on up.

[TADSLOS]

Shouldn't be a big surprise, seeing how he continually emphasizes his big concern for looking out "for the folks". It has a certain lingering liberal smell to it.

[Patriot814]

In some ways this doesn't totally mean he has a liberal tilt, it could mean he wants to replace Dan Rathers or any opening and is trying to suck up. Which is stupid because if you've read "Weapons of Mass Distortion" it predicts fox news to be on top in everything by 2006.

SURPRISING???

To whom??

[Arkie2]

He shouldn't be a disappointment if you've watched him. I think he's angling for "respectability" among the media elite. He wants to be considered one of the big boys and that means adopting the liberal mindset. i gave up on him some time ago.

[ArmyBratCutie]

I think he thinks saying this kind of crap makes him "sassy".. hes as much a wussy as Kerry....he kissed Michael Moore and Alec Baldwins BUTT when they were on his show....he almost drooled on Alec Baldwin he was so impressed......
Laura Ingraham is right about him .. and Ann Coulter nailed his behind not long ago....
he can kiss my behinie too

I've said from the very begining, Bill is a populist, on alot of issues.

It just happens he personally doesn't like alot of liberals, not necessarily for ideological reasons, just personal ones.

People seem to confuse personal for political far to often. I've known liberals who hate other liberals because they are obnoxious, nasty, with wild paranoia streaks. Think Gephardt and Dean supporters. They were practically attacking each other in Iowa.

[sarasotarepublican]

He never fooled me for a moment. When he refused the SBV, I was furious. I haven't watched him since. Another liberal on Fox. It won't be long before Fox joins the ranks of CNN. I wonder what the ratio of conservatives to liberals is on Fox?

[Happy2BMe]

O'Reilly comes out of the (liberal) closet - ping.

[Torie]

O'Reilly is just spinning. That guy is so full of himself. Basically he wants ratings, which means being seemingly conservative, while having respectability in certain zip codes as being objective, because folks of a lower middle class Irish heritage tend to crave respectability among their peers (well the last bit is a bit of a mouthful, but I will say it anyway). I don't think the guy has any real beliefs which fit into this objective function.

Maybe he is a double agent. ;-)

[Dolphy]

I have disliked O'Reilly for a long time but I still take pleasure in his regular confirmations of my opinion. I wish the right would abandon him and let him sink.

[ServesURight]

Goodbye O'Loud Mouth, it was nice knowing you. Michael Savage called you out from the get-go. Now you can stop attacking him and the other "right-wingers" on radio and return back to your hole at Inside Edition.

[ditto h]

Oh ye of little faith..

[mconley22]

I can barely stand to watch O'Reilly. I wish that some other network would lure him away from FOX. It would be great to see Hannity and Colmes moved into Bill's slot and for FOX to pick up Dennis Miller. The Miller show has potential, but Dennis badly needs better writers and producers than the shoestring budget at CNBC provides.

[SaveTheChief]

For some time, I have determined that O'Reilly serves no one but himself. Anything he does, everything he says is for the advancement of his career.

He might have some interesting comments from time to time, but I would trust him as a source of information any more than I would trust Rather, Jennings, or Browkaw.
