What did you all think of the overwhelming bogus hype on the NObama "interview"? Bill and some (few) at Fox News were all a twitter.
The interview meant NOTHING. NObama was his typical self and O'Reilly was for some reason 'ecstatic about getting what I guess he thought was some big "scoop". But it wasn't anything but bogus hype. Fox news viewers don't want to see that Phoney Barack Hussein Obama! C'mon Fox News get a clue!!.
O'Reilley needs to get over himself, and over Dick Morris and he just need to go off camera and have a nice dinner.
Way too many cooks in the kitchen. McCain/Palin is at LEAST 15 points ahead in the polls. NObama is faltering BIG TIME. Wait until all the Independents come to McCain and all the evangelicals and Catholics. Great stuff. NObama will never be President. We all care far too much about our Country, and there are not enough dumb people to still be for NObama.
I did my wash during the BIG "O'Reilley" interview. Who gives a shiat?
I kept waiting for BOR to really challenge him - and in the end BO just got to keep spouting his usual talking points.
Far as I’m concerned BO slithered away unscathed.
Pushy Obama walked all over the mighty O’Reilly and wiped his feet on the carcass on the way out. And O’Reilly just sat there and took it. It was an embarrassment.

Ye it was a boring and meaningless interview.
I watch it only when its Miller time.The rest of the time is spent here on FR.
We stopped watching O’Reilly when we our smugo-meter finally broke. We used to watch him almost every night but wife cannot stand him now.
We switched to Glenn Beck who is entertaining and covers a wide variety of topics. He also has a good sense of humor and is not obsessed with himself. We really like him and accept that much of his sensationalism is entertainment.
O’Reilly claims he is looking out for the folks but it’s all about him. I watched the Obama interview and came away disappointed. I give him credit for asking a few tough questions but he let Obama avoid answering the tough ones and did little in the way of follow-up. Pretty sad for the “no-spin zone”.
When O'Reilly and Obama talked basketball, you knew right then and there that the interview was a sham. O'Reilly wants him back for ratings and tossed him softballs to ensure that possibility. Most nights we skip O'Reilly entirely and catch Glenn Beck instead. If O'Reilly was on the mark and serious about issues, he'd not be wasting one fourth of his show with his "culture quiz." It's a time filler/waster and any one of us could do the same for a heck of a lot less $$ than he's getting paid by Fox News.
If O had any journalistic integrity (as he claims) had any class (as he claims) or was looking our for us (as he claims) he would have told O to shove it where the sun don't shine.
Immediately after, gone on television and let his viewers know that Obama was so scared of tough questions, and having to explain his answers, he would only sit down for 30 minutes. That would have told people a great deal about Obama and O’Reilly too.
Not me. I've lost all interest in Lawyers for President. I don't want another slick-talking word parser leading this country. A quick Wiki search of Ronald Reagan didn't indicate a law degree. Screen Actor's Guild and some other stuff.
This country would be ten times better off if no lawyers had ever been elected and instead, citizens and statesmen- and that goes for the Senate too.
From Wiki:
John McCain-not a lawyer- U.S. Naval Academy
Kerry-Boston College Law School
George W. Bush-Not accepted to University of Texas Law School- got an MBA at Harvard.
Bill Clinton-Yale Law School
Hillary Clinton-Yale Law School (for the ugly)
Gerald Ford- Yale by way of Univeristy of Michigan Law School
LBJ- Georgetown Univeristy Law School, no mention of graduation.
Al Gore-Harvard- BA in Government (close, but no cookie)
John Edwards- a caught cheatin' lawyer- University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill- with 'honors'.
Joe Lieberman-Yale Law School
Sarah Palin-(I did't find 'lawyer, Yale, or Harvard, but here it is)
Palin attended Wasilla High School in Wasilla, Alaska, a city[9] located 29 miles (47 km) north of the port of Anchorage.
She was the head of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes chapter at the school, and the point guard and captain of the school's girls' basketball team. She helped the team win the Alaska small-school basketball championship in 1982, hitting a critical free throw in the last seconds of the game, despite having an ankle stress fracture. She earned the nickname "Sarah Barracuda" because of her intense play, and was the leader of the team prayer before games.[10]
In 1984, Palin won the Miss Wasilla Pageant,[11][12] then finished third (second runner-up) in the Miss Alaska pageant,[13][14] at which she won a college scholarship and the "Miss Congeniality" award.[15] Palin admits to trying marijuana as a youth, during the time Alaska had decriminalized possession, though she says she did not enjoy it.[16][17]
Palin spent her first college semester at Hawaii Pacific College, transferring in 1983 to North Idaho College and then to the University of Idaho. She attended Matanuska-Susitna College in Alaska for one term, returning to the University of Idaho to complete her Bachelor of Science degree in communications-journalism, graduating in 1987.[18][19]
In 1988, she worked as a sports reporter for KTUU-TV in Anchorage, Alaska,[20] and for the Mat-Su Valley Frontiersman as a sports reporter.[21] She also helped in her husbands commercial fishing family business.[22]
If anyone else sees the pattern here, please move to the head of the class.
Compare the O’Reilley-Obama “interview” with the Gibson-Palin interrogation.
O’Reilley might win the Powder Puff award for this charade.
I’m sure Chrissy Matthews’ leg wasn’t happy to see this flirt-fest being televised.
If BOR’s head gets any bigger it will explode. The guy is so full of himself and self important I can’t take listening to him any more. Having nobama on his show was so important to him that he was afraid to do an interview with any substance. I predicted before the ‘interview’ that BHO would be sending him chocolates and flowers afterward. I’m sure he did.
Barack Obama- graduate of Columbia University AND Harvard Law School. (double whammy!)
Joe Biden- graduated Syracuse University College of Law. (something I didn't know)...Biden suffered from stuttering through much of his childhood and into his twenties;[7] he overcame it via long hours spent reciting poetry in front of a mirror.[8]
"Mirror, mmmirror, on the wall, should Hillary be in my place this Fall?"
"Yes"
I can’t stand to watch O’Reilly for more than 3 or 4 seconds, but one big thing came out of this interview. Obama admitted that The Surge worked better than anyone could have ever dreamed, which opened up a huge window of opportunity for Team McCain to pounce.
I didn’t watch any of it because (a) I can’t stand O’Reilly, who’s a blowhard bag of wind in love with his own voice, and (b) I can’t stand the Obambi, who’s such a weasel I knew he’d be able to weasel around the blowhard bag of wind. So I figured it’d be a waste of time to watch two narcissists vie for the “I’m more wonderful and fantastic” spot.
If I were the interviewer and O interrupted me with “hup-hup-hup-hup-hup-hup” and reached his hand to silence me I’d throw him off stage. Big,tough O’Reilly is a pussy.
It was embarrassing and O'Reilly has been swooning over Obama ever since. Not as much of course as O'Reilly has been swooning over O'Reilly, but pretty close.
It reminded me a bit of how a young kid (O'Reilly) really wants the popular kid (Obama) in school (MSM world) to be his friend and the popular kid acts like he really is his friend and uses the young kid then kicks him to the side of the road. Then the young kid brags about how they are friends and how neat he is.
Want a real change in Washington? STOP ELECTING LAWYERS! That’s a step in the right direction.
Immediately after the first airing, Bill made it plain that he had no confidence that Obama would protect us from the terrorists.
What was up with Nobama constantly touching BOR’s knee? Is that a homo thing or what? Sounds like Larry Sinclair was right about Obama being a closet fudge packer.
