Fox News Host Bill O’Reilly apologized on Thursday night for calling the network’s liberal commentator Alan Colmes a liar earlier in the week for saying that President Barack Obama made specific suggestions to cut entitlement programs.

“Even though I’m sorry I said Alan was lying, I should not have used that word, I’m glad the exposition occurred,” O’Reilly said during his introductory monologue on the 8 p.m. show “Talking Points.” …

Why apologize to the human Iguana? “....which we call a rose. By any other name would smell as sweet” Paraphrase for Colmes: that which we would call a jackass by any other name would still be a jackass.

O’Reilly has a bad case of “I must always do the right thing..I must be “fair and balanced, I must be polite and respectful of everyone at all times,” blah, blah, blah.

O’Reilly has a temper and he does spout off when he can't take the leftist crap, but then the backs off and apologizes.

I can catch this type of act with Boehner and his tough guy/folds like a cheap suit routine. I had hoped O’Reilly had the stuff to say it and mean it, and not back down. He disappoints and I'm tired of being disappointed. He needs to take lessons from the Great One, Mark Levin. He says it and he means it and he doesn't take “nuthin’ back.

Not only is Colmes a liar, he’s a pathetic human being. And that’s being kind. I think the puke is an alien.

You know, I don’t know who I dislike the most, Colmes or O’Reilly. Colmes at least is honest about his ‘dishonest” position whereas O’Reilly is a phony, self-promoting asswipe.

When the left apologizes it's almost always: I am sorry you misunderstood what I said.

No, it's more like, "I'm sorry if what I said offended some people". What they are saying is, I meant every word that I said and you go jump in the lake if you don't like it.

His performance the next night with Kirsten Powers was disgusting and intellectual fraud. He’s a circus clown like Rachel Maddow as far as I’m concerned.
