Bill O'Reilly Exposes Coulter's Nonsense

Bill O'Reilly Exposes Coulter's Nonsense

For those of you who think I have nothing good to say about Bill O'Reilly, listen up. I was ready to applaud him last night during a rerun of a segment, previously unseen by me, with him and Ann Coulter about demonizing political opponents. Of course, the only demonizing under discussion was done by the left against the right.

O'Reilly started out the interview with a good question for Coulter. "Is there a difference between what you do and the attacks on Clarence Thomas and Condoleezza Rice?"

Not surprisingly, Coulter thought there was, and she had some idiotic reasoning to "prove" it.

"Liberals always find black conservatives incompetent," Coulter asserted with her usual mean-spirited smile. Apparently, she forgot about Colin Powell, whom I have yet to hear referred to as imcompetent by liberals, but why spoil a telegenic theory with an unflattering fact? Instead, she went on to say that liberals don't call white conservatives incompetent. One of her examples was Donald Rumsfeld, "the evil genius." I have never heard Rumsfeld referred to in those terms but, assuming she is correct (a big assumption when it comes to Coulter), it's quite remarkable how she has conveniently overlooked all the criticism of Rumsfeld, much of it criticizng his competence (over armor for the troops, not securing munitions, disbanding the Iraqi army, etc.). O'Reilly said skeptically that he thought the criticisms against Thomas and Rice had more to do with policy differences than racism.

But Coulter had some more hypocritical and contradictory venom to spew. Condi Rice "is far more qualified than the last two Secretaries of State." (Who's calling African-American Powell incompetent now?) Coulter continued, "How about Madeleine Albright? All she talked about were her brooches."

O'Reilly interrupted impatiently. "Oh, come on," he said. "She's a smart woman."

Coulter, on a roll now, went on to make her most self-incriminating statement yet. "She (Albright) got us into a pre-emptive attack solely for purposes of regime change based on misinformation."

Was that Albright only, not Condoleezza Rice, that Coulter was blaming for those kinds of missteps? Even by Coulter standards, that last statement was a whopper. Well, what's a little consistency and logic when you have a name to keep in the spotlight, books to sell, and provocative smiles to throw at every man within hair-tossing distance?

Memo to O'Reilly: I promise to cut out the loofah jokes if you will just once shout at Ann Coulter to just shut up.

It sounds like this writer is jealous of Annie. And for the record, despite Ann's great feminine look, she's still twice the man O'Reilly is.

Ann needs to consume a cheeseburger. How much hotter would she be 10 pounds heavier? She has that Karen Carpenter look.

O'Reilly is a twit. I have never considered him anything other than an entertainer and not a very good one.

Apparently he can't stand BOR, who is no conservative, any more than he can stand Ann Coulter. Unless you're an extreme Leftist - you can expect to be the butt of a lot of loofa jokes.

. . . and whom I have yet to hear referred to as "conservative" by conservatives.

Who is this person, Ellen? And why is she trying so hard to emulate Anne, all the while mimicking her style? Badly.

This incoherent hissy fit sounds right out of the Bevis and Butthead radio show, aka "Air America".

Powell was loved by the libs because he was a moderate and would be able to be the 'voice of reason' in the Bush cabinet.

And the libs do not call white conservatives incompetnet -- evil, vile, bible-thumpin', mean, vengful, misguided, feral, stupid, insensative, idiotic, homophobic, racist or dumb. But never incompetent -- thank goodness for small miracles, eh?

It's funny how liberals think Bill is a conservative. Right of center of some issues, yes. A leftwing weenie on many others. A vain blowhard from top to bottom, and predator of coworkers, apparently.

Author builds straw man in the case of Powell. She equates Republican with conservative and then attacks. The two do not compute; even Powell would describe himself as a "moderate." The reason this author does not attack Powell, is that he is not a conservative.

On the other hand, I love Anne's acerbic pen.

This statement by Ann is completely true, it refers to the Kosovo war.

I dont't always agree with O'Reilly. This statement is one of them.

LOL! "Ellen" must be pretty dense to miss the point there.

Nothing like the truth to enflame liberal emotions.

"O'Reilly interrupted impatiently. "Oh, come on," he said. "She's a smart woman."

Albright is a horse's ass. O'Reilly is a loudmouthed, pompous buffoon whose occasional voyages into the logical are eclipsed by his far more frequent trips into the absurd.

And anybody who criticizes my favorite gal can go ###%@^&@*!()
