Congressman Curt Weldon stiffs O'Reilly; banned from "The Factor" for life!
FOXNEWS | 6/20/2005 | The Factor with Bill O'Reilly

Posted on 06/20/2005 6:10:32 PM PDT by sinkspur

Congressman Curt Weldon, Republican, was scheduled to appear on "The Factor with Bill O'Reilly" after the bottom of the hour.

O'Reilly announced that he was not there, had not called as to why he wouldn't be there, and his staff was not answering their phones.

O'Reilly said he was only the second person in nine years to be a no-show. And, Weldon was booked at HIS REQUEST!

As a result, Weldon was banned from "The Factor" for life.

The topic for Weldon's appearance was to have been Terrorism and the treatment of prisoners at Guantanamo.

This is not a big deal in the whole general scheme of life, but it is interesting, given Weldon's recent offbeat escapades and freelance spying. He fancies himself a junior-CIA director, and his "Countdown to Terror" takes the CIA to task for ignoring his warning of a terrorist attack on a nuclear power plant in New Hampshire in 2004.

Why would a guy with a book not show up on the most watched cable talk show in America?

He was on Ron Insana this past weekend, hence my tagline.

Weldon is a minor league McCain, running his own foreign policy. The loosest of cannons and loves seeing his name in the paper.

Is O'Reilly's banned for life the same as the NBA's version?

O'Reilly stole that action from the detestable Imus.

O'Reilly might just be the most pompous of the many self impressed talk show hosts.

Years ago, WWF President Jack Tunney suspeneded referee Danny Davis for life, but he showed up back next week. Stipluations like that don't mean anything, really. :-)
