O’Reilly will certainly have something on this tonight—he has been at war with Immelt, GE and NBC for some time now.

GE has been run by liberal NE frat boys the last 15 years or so. The management of GE has gone from some of the best in the world to a big fraternity party of capable only of back scratching and back stabbing. They are living only on past success.
