O'Reilly Calls Contractors "Strung up in Falluja" Wannabes
My TV | 10/8/2004 | big_wannabe

Posted on 10/08/2004 1:21:29 PM PDT by big_wannabe

Those guys were real deal American warriors and this arrogant blowhard says this:

CMD SGT MAJ ERIC HANEY: "There is a tremendous number of wantabes."

O'REILLY (Cuts in): "Look at the guys who got strung up in Falluja. Ya know? I mean, right, I mean, you get these guys, and then they think that they're macho men, and all of a sudden they're hanging from a bridge."

http://www.military.com/NewsContent/0,13319,FL_vets_040204,00.html

"Two Army veterans and a former Navy SEAL were among four American contractors killed in Iraq, their bodies mutilated and dragged through the streets...Jerko 'Jerry' Zovko, 32, Michael Teague, 38, and Scott Helvenston, 38, died with another civilian Wednesday after they were hit by rocket-propelled grenades in a rebel ambush. The victims worked for Blackwater Security Consulting, one of five subsidiaries of Blackwater USA based in North Carolina."

A SEAL and three Army Rangers!!!

O'Reilly should apologise.

Fox should post the transcript WITH the apology.

O'Reilly's constant attempts to appear objective belie the fact that he gets it so wrong.

He called Kerry "A big gun guy" (totally incorrect, Kerry is the most anti-gun Candidate in history).

He pooh poohed the swift boat vets even after the Kerry campaign conceded Christmas in Cambodia.

And now he calls a Navy Seal and 3 Army Rangers "wannabes".

O'Reilly just lost another viewer.

O'Reilly is usually fairly clueless on most issues.

BO (bad oder) is slowly on the way out. He has acquired the arrogance of those he has been putting down over the years. This is why he is going down!!!!!!

He is just to arrogant to realize this.

I heard that last night and was disgusted.

The Blackwater contractors were locals and hung out at a place in VABEACH and they were far, far, far, from wannabe's.

O'Reilly is getting a Chrissie Matthews diction lesson apparently. Now, we have to watch and see if he begins to spit.

Once ans azz, always an azz. I heard alot about BO and looked forward to watching his show when I got cable. I watched 2 shows and that was enough to turn me off.

Thank you for providing the transcript which shows that your O'Reilly hatred got in the way of truth. It was CMD SGT MAJ HANEY that said that.

CMD SGT MAJ ERIC HANEY: "There is a tremendous number of wantabes."

Agreed. He goes around saying things like:

Imagine the Cheney/Edwards debate broadcast into the caves of the terrorists. Now which one do you think the terrorists would be afraid of.

He should be strung up.

O'Reilly's test on who to vote for for president:

Decide which one the terrorists want for president and then vote for the other one!

Krauthammer: 'Of Course the Terrorists Want Bush Defeated' The Washington Post ^ | Friday, October 8, 2004 | Charles Krauthammer

Posted on 10/08/2004 1:08:22 PM PDT by West Coast Conservative

Do the bad guys -- the terrorists in their Afghan caves and Iraqi redoubts -- want George Bush defeated in this election? Bush critics, among them the editors of the New York Times, have worked themselves into a lather over the mere suggestion that this might be so. A front-page "analysis" in The Post quoted several Republican variations of this theme -- such as Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage saying that the terrorists in Iraq "are trying to influence the election against President Bush" -- then noted that "[s]uch accusations . . . surfaced in the modern era during the McCarthy communist hunt."

Intimations of McCarthyism constitute a serious charge. But the charge is not remotely serious. Of course the terrorists want Bush defeated. How can anyone pretend otherwise?

Correct. I stopped watching o'reilly several weeks ago. He has become stale.

Remember, We made him and we can break him.Stop watching him! When the viewership is gone HE WILL BE GONE.
