Letterman Reunites With 'Goon' O'Reilly

The Bill O'Reilly bus pulled up to the Ed Sullivan theater on Tuesday for another go-round with David Letterman, and as usual, things got prickly between the two opinionated gents. The 'Late Show' show host kicked off the interview by discussing O'Reilly's long and 'Inside Edition'-filled road from reporter in Scranton, PA to the king of cable news commentary at FOX News with 'The O'Reilly Factor.'

If I was Bill I would have been totally in David's face.

"Why do you call me a goon, David? You love me. You love that by having me on your show you can make money. You love that more than any minor annoyance I might be to you. You would have Limbaugh on in a heartbeat if you could get him. You love every cent I generate for you, why do you pretend not to like me? You should be breaking out the kneepads."

idiot O’Reilly claiming he’s the reason Rush’s ratings went up is like the rooster taking credit for the sunrise.

Yeah, O’Reilly wins but that’s like, well, “the special olympics or something”

Dave is a dunce.

Am I wrong or did BOR attribute much of Rush’s popularity due to BOR’s exit from talk radio? He said he gave Rush competition?

I always thought Rush cleaned his clock, five days a week, three hours a day.

No, that wasn't what BOR said, I heard what he said and it was that it was a good thing he was leaving talk radio because with all the free publicity the democrats were giving Rush no one would listen to The Factor now.... he was laughing at himself, not dissing Rush.

Is there anyone left on FR that isn't negative these days.

If I say, "No" does that prove I'm negative!?!?

BOR can be obnoxious, but I have to say that last nights show was pretty much “right on”. As well as hitting on Sean, he defended Palin, accusing the Dems of being so frightened of her that they were out to malign her. He offered $1,ooo to anyone starting a defense fund for her legal debts, stating that no way should she have to foot the entire debt. He had his usual jabs at Barack’s spending spree.

Once again, Letterman shows he wasn’t the class clown back in school...He was the class Asshole....and still is..and it’s the people who laughed at that class assholes crudities, insults, betrayals of secrets, and dirty tricks
that they played on their victims, who are the audeinces that cheer Letterman now.

Letterman continued on the Rush boat: "It just seems to me that he's too smart to believe what he's saying, and I feel the same way about you. You're too smart to believe what you're saying."

These are classic socialist argument tactics for which there is no rational defense, since they are not based in reason but intimidation.

I would pick O’Reilly over that idiot Letterman any day, but last night when O’Reilly refused to even repeat that Biden’s daughter was filmed snorting coke, and called her drug use a “set-up”, that pissed me off. She sucked up cocaine like a Hoover. How is that a “set-up”?

No, everybody’s negative. Nobody’s good, and even those that we should be sticking up for (but maybe doesn’t agree with us on everything 100 percent of the time, just 95 percent).....is evil. They need to be destroyed.

You noticed it too? I have attempted to be more positive but it is difficult because of the other negaboobs/LOLs.

I think everyone needs to see how the story plays out with Biden’s daughter. Everyone deserves the benefit of the doubt until the real truth comes out. I’m not saying that Biden’s daughter is innocent, but there is something that stinks about the story. BOR should have made you not pissed with his stance on Sarah Palin and Sean Penn, so overall you should feel non-pissed.

Sorry, marv, I just can’t help getting pissed when O’reilly covers up Bidens’ daughters’ cocaine use and even bleeps out any references to it. Who’s he trying to impress, the RATS? It won’t work.

Its almost sad to see the kind of buffoon Letterman has morphed into.. He was once somewhat entertaining, but I think he’s really got a severe mental/emotional disorder.(I had always heard about him being odd, a loner, etc) but in his old age, its just became painfully evident..

I never watch his show anymore but every once in a while I read these interviews or catch a clip of it the day after, and just shake my head.

Rush must sit back and laugh his ass off when he hears what Letterman says about him
