A lot of people are watching O'Reilly and this is a good way for the President to speak to the people -- the network channels don't even put him on, when he is making a major speech.

Because the "bloviator" has more cred than russet-head and is known by the left as a bulldog. It pisses off hildebeast and company that Bush will look the lion in the face, while her so-called husband would only sit for Chris Wallace... who is NOT known to be a hard hitting interview. Chris is also a well known dim.

Because Bill O'Reilly has the number one prime time cable show and beats CNN and MSNBC by a mile?

Might have something to do with it...by reaching out to millions of people 3 times a night versus reaching hundreds of thousands or in MSNBC's case...thousands.

Well, BOR does happen to have the highest rated show on any of the cable networks. It's not even close. Plus Fox is less hostile than BSMSNBC and CNN.

Because O'Reilly has MAJOR ratings and the alternative is CNN.
