I look for the right wing fall-out to overwhelm BOR.

I listened to BOR on the radio yesterday and he was speaking in support of hate crimes legislation. I found it humorous that almost every caller was telling him that it was a bad thing. I bet we won't see a poll on his website about hate crimes legislation support.

O’hReally is the Fox equivalent of little Chrissy Matthews, a joke with a poorly conceived punchline.

If B.O. isn’t careful, he’s likely to earn the irrelevance he so richly deserves.

Can you guys add the “s” I left off in the posting of the headline (and then in pasting the article) in “Attacks” - I don’t want anyone to be defending FR with a display of poor grammar :-)

The irony is BOR will make every effort to find ‘something’ today that he can trot out tonight to support his misguided statements from last night.

Everybody say hello to The Factor interns doing the work....(chuckle)

Hello, interns!

"O’Reilly needs a bogeyman on the right so he can pretend to posture in the middle; thus, his groundless, transparent attempts to equate FR with KOS."

EXACTLY! And that was a lousy thing to do to take a cheap shot at Free Republic so he can make himself look "fair and balanced."

That act was both unfair and imbalanced.

You wonder why he thinks he has to appease liberals when they have nothing but contempt for him.

When O’Reilly did his anti-Reagan blasts as an over-rated President, I realized that he was a blow-hard and out for his own ratings and the heck with the cause. So the fact that he kicks FReepers should come as no surprise.

He says and does a lot of good things, but no warm place in my heart for someone like him.

Thank you Melanie Morgan!

We need a list of the posts O'Reilly was talking about. As a matter of fact we demand a list. Then we will discuss it in public.

O’Reilly is irrelevant. He’s a showman and he’s putting on a show, that’s all.

I have more respect for guys Like Lou Dobbs who grab onto an important issue and don’t let go than I have for people like O’Reilly who jump on the daily trend.

FR is a forum. All forums have problems with internet cowboys who like to start range wars and say outrageous things. We have moderators who put out these fires. O’Reilly doesn’t have a clue about all this internet stuff; he just plays someone on TV that acts like he does.

Face it, FR used to be a LOT worse. As a matter of fact, a lot of old-timers left because we became too tame.

Thank you for posting this- I missed the segment, but saw it (was on phone and saw captions of TV)

The guy is just jealous because FR gets higher Alexis ratings than his POS website.

O'Reilly is in a perpetual state of agony due to his continued insistence on sitting on the pickets of the fence. The man is incapable of taking a stand on principle, rather he has to equivocate his position on Kos by demonizing somebody on the right, in this case us.

It's a free country though and if O'Reilly wants to go through life with his hemmorhoids impaled on that fence, the more power to him as long as he doesn't slander his betters and believe me when I say that there are many thousands of posters here at FR who would wipe the smirk off of Bill's face if he engaged in debate here.

Thank you Melanie for setting the record straight.

Thanks.

I sent an email asking politely for BOR to provide the documentation he kept referencing, but never showed, last night.

I’ll be on the road, driving to Texas tonight, so I won’t see it, but I’ll try to listen via XM.
