Re: Your on-air bashing of Free Republic
So, you think that because one poster on FR comments that a diabetic supreme court nominee might not live to a ripe old age that all 350,000 of us are insensitive right-wing loons?
Got news for you pal. The owner of Free Republic (namely me) is diabetic and I've already lost one leg due to this despicable disease and the other leg looks like it's ready to fall off any day now. My sister died of complications brought on by juvenile diabetes at the tender age 43. I've out-lived her in years, but I don't think I'll be signing on to any life term judgeships. And I sure as hell wouldn't wish this disease on anyone else.
Hey, what can I say. My political enemies make fun of the one-legged old gimp every day of the week. Good thing I'm not as sensitive as you about such nonsensical non-issues.
And if it's impossible for a minority to be racist, then it's impossible for a diabetic to be insensitive. /sarc
But, I do agree with you on one thing. We FReepers are a bunch of right-wing loons, bitterly clinging to our guns and religion. And proud of it you elitist gasbag!

i just got home. did i miss something?
O’reily is catering to the left wing nus more and more especially since he wrote his story of his life...he’s about as middle of the road as one can get larely. i think he’s afraid of saying the wrong thing in the new socialist regime to cover HIS ass...and leave the rest in the wings...it’s called being a deserter.
I have a question for Mr. Bill...
How LONG did you search FR to find that???
Or did you just pass it along WITHOUT CHECKING YOUR SOURCE????
JERK!
Thank you Jim. You have done more to benefit this country than BOR ever will. I quit watching him the last time he so unfairly slammed us.
You want it pithy Bill?
BOR is pompous, presumptuous, and pretentious.
Eff you, O’Reilly!
(I’m also a diabetic...)
WHO IS SPINNING NOW???? HUH?
right on Jim
right on the money. BOR probably isn’t worth listening to on the radio I wouldn;t know, but his TV show has become the pits to watch IMO
time for us to break out the flaming sporks
You tell him, Jim!
Bill,
You took issue with FreeRepublic in your segment tonight (5/26/2009) and used one post which was dispicable towards President Obama's Supreme Court nominee to paint the whole site and forum with a very broad brush.
There are over 300,000 registered uses at FreeRepublic. I have posted there for over 11 years myself, and although there are some posters who spout nonsense from time to time (show me a group of 300,000+ where there aren't), on the whole, the site represents a very patriotic, conservative, all-American bunch of people who want to be vigilant about defending and safe guarding their liberties.
For your information, the owner, Jim Robinson, a disabled vet, is suffering himself from diabetes and has already lost a leg to that disease. Your use of that post, while certainly unintended, was itself an insult to an individual who is also suffering from the disease, and who has honorably served this nation in defense of your and my liberty.
I believe you need to be fair and balanced and have Jim Robinson on your show to respond. To not at least attempt to do so would be demeritorious in the extreme.
Sincerely,
Jeff Head

HOOAH!
Wonder if he’ll have the guts to read that on-air! LOL!
Once upon a time in a Galaxy far, far away O’Reilly was a thoughtful and well modulated interviewer who rarely interrupted or raised his voice.
These last few years he is increasingly a self centered windbag ...
You tell ‘em, Jim.
Refreshed.
BOR's a POS, an SOB, and NQR in the head. ...and his show is CTD PDQ.

Nooooobody takes Ted Baxter seriously... or expects the Spanish Inquisition. LOL!
Just saw it. The FR comment was 23 minutes into the show if anyone watches a late-nite rerun.
Thank you for standing up for this community, Jim!!!
