Geraldo Rivera Apologizes for Saying He'd Spit on Michelle Malkin

There was a moment a while back when Michelle was subbing for O’Reilly. She had one of those NOI fools on regarding the Imus incident, and the man called her a political prostitute. She didn’t skip a beat “You come on here and call me a whore? You call ME a whore? You sir, are the only WHORE on THIS set.” It was one of the most brilliant smack-downs I’ve ever seen.

Dear Jerry,all Michelle did was tell the TRUTH!Lib/Weasels(like yourself)just can’t stand THE TRUTH!!If you ever do ANYTHING untowards to Michelle,you will have to answer to ME!!!

I think the Emails to Fox news are hitting home. BOR gave Jerry a way out. They are both idiots.

Rivera desparately wants to transform the US into the United States of Mexico/Latin America.

Rivera has lived so long in his insulated, high tower gated world ... that he can't see the devastating effects that unbridled illegal immigration has had on American society.

I am certain that if there were waves and waves of .... say, Polish or Irish illegal immigrants -- Rivera would be screaming at the top of his lungs about the unfairness of it all.

Unfortunately, I missed Whorealdo's self-serving apology. That's not a surprise, because every time I see his face I change the channel, muy pronto.

Jerry and his handlers knew they may have gone over board.Their apology,I believe,comes from their knowing her next column might not be so kind.And more from there!The old saying,”Never go war without ammunition”.Mrs.Malkin has more ammo than all of their collective minds put together in a thimble.I do find it amusing that when Jerry Rivers comes on,countless FReepers flip him off.Myself included.Pun intended.

Do conservatives threaten to beat up, spit on, kill, choke liberals and I’m just missing it?

Conservatives are held to a higher standard. Fortunately, it's not difficult to have more integrity than liberals do.

[Bullish]

Yeah, what you said.

[eyedigress]

The funny part is when O’Reilly said more than once “Do You Apologise for saying that?” and then timed just right “You can see Geraldo right here on Fox News Blah, Blah Blah! It was a smack-down, and it was hilarious.

[Bullish]

There’s no one I’d rather hurl a chair at then Poopy Pants whorealdo.

"~ ~ ~And it seems that he is popping up on almost every FOX show nowdays as if FOX doesn’t really know what to do with him ~ ~ ~"

It does seem as if he is around all the time! Whenever I hear that voice -- sounding as if he is trying to sound official and serious --- I change channels.

Same when Shep comes on, or when Greta starts her interrogations. Fox -- are you listening?

Actually, I am pleased that Shep has made me change channels, as now I am a Glenn Beck devotee!

WELCOME TO FR!

We also switch channels when Geraldo appears. It is a main reason we now rarely watch O'Reilly.

From what I saw, this was a nonapology. He was laughing like it was a funny joke - his demeanor betrayed him. Obviously he was forced to say something.

[BenNighthumpCamel]

I have installed a “Low INtellect, Failed Lawyer, Can’t Even Keep A Decent Job In TV” Detector on my TV remote. It automatically changes channels when Whorealdo comes on.

[Cindy]

I agree.
It was a playground type apology.

[Dante3]

If Ann Coulter had said it about a liberal, MSM would have become hysterical.

[Mark was here]

Funny. If a white conservative threatened to spit on a dark-skinned woman, well, you *know* what the Left would think...

It wouldn't involve "thinking" more of a reacting to the outrage, in order to fully exploit it. Ask Imus.

[mad_as_he$$]

Good ole Jerry is so classy.

[mad_as_he$$]

10 yards, unnecessary roughness. But funnier than hell.
