POISON PENN PUZZLES BILL (O'Reilly Replies To Sean Penn Attack)

BILL O'Reilly says he's baffled by a Sean Penn interview in the upcoming issue of Talk magazine in which the bad-boy actor likens O'Reilly to Adolf Hitler and Osama bin Laden.

For one thing, O'Reilly has never met the actor, nor has he ever singled him out for scrutiny on his nightly Fox News Channel talk show, "The O'Reilly Factor."

[PJ-Comix]

O'Reilly said the actor now has a standing invitation to come on the show and discuss his gripes, although O'Reilly doubts Penn will ever appear.

That is correct. That cretin, Sean Penn, can dish it out but he can't take it. He probably knows that O'Reilly would ask him questions about how Penn likes to beat up on women. BTW, Howard Stern was really slamming Penn this morning.

Gee, what a deep well of intellectual thought. The one actor who could without question play both Beavis as well as Butthead.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Why does Bill O'Reilly even care? Sean Penn is a worthless has-been. His last movie was in 1998 (Hurlyburly) and it sucked. If he has a Hollywood job these days, he's a stepinfetchit for some director or writer.

[cinciphil]

You're denigrating "Bevis and Butthead"....he could play matthew sheperd

[Henrietta]

Wasn't Hitler a big fan of eugenics? Hey, Sean, you are not the kinda guy we want breeding -- outta the gene pool right now, before you piss in it.

[ozzymandus]

This is funny! I wonder who bothered to find out what a washed-up has-been like Mr. Madonna thinks anyway. Probably his press agent. Penn is a no-talent thug and will probably be living on the street in 5 years or less. Note that he still toes the RAT party line, however. Funny how all the lefties think O'Reilly is a conservative. he's probably more liberal than a lot of them.

What is it with America’s fascination of asking famous people their opinion on topics for which they have neither the training, nor the background to be experts.

Based upon this maybe Tiger Woods should be asked to solve all our problems.

"Hey, bud, what's your problem?" [INSERT STUPID STONER LAUGH HERE]

What the heck? Do you doubt the word of a guy whose most famous role is playing a guy who is stoned 24/7 (I'll bet he wasn't acting).

[anniegetyourgun]

"...appealing to "the lowest common denominator of people's impulses..."

Isn't this the case with Penn's movies?

Bill should not have Sean on his show. These Hollywood types seem to have a difficult time in the area of thoughtful discourse - especially when it's not in the script.

[Grampa Dave]

You posted, "Why does Bill O'Reilly even care? Sean Penn is a worthless has-been."

I would make this one modification on your statement, "Sean Penn is worthless! (He has never even been an been! He has been an obvious affirmative action hire by Follywood! He represents the no talent, very stupid and criminal white criminal trash for Follywood"

Penn has never had a lick of talent or skill at anything!

BTW, Howard Stern was really slamming Penn this morning.

What did he say?

[3catsanadog]

I read an article that I reached through a link on Drudge that Penn thought Stern made too many "poo poo jokes." I wonder if O'Reilly will make mention of Penn tonight. I'm sure Stern has a few choice things to say, but I can't bear to watch more than 10 seconds of that man.

O'Reilly is one of the good guys..rock on Bill O'Reilly..you rule.

[VRWC For Truth]

I bet Penn meant Rush Limbaugh, but his chemical imbalanced caused him to blurt out O'Reilly. Penn is one f'd up dude.

[tubebender]

So is this an admission that Sow Penn watches O'Reilly ?

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Really, somebody had to go out and seek what this worthless chowderhead actually thinks (if you can call it that). I'd rather take the time to find out what the dog thinks.

[Post Toasties]

"I'd like to trade O'Reilly for bin Laden, and then we can decide when he gets here."

I've got a better idea. Let's trade Penn for an Al Qaeda terrorist to be named later.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Yep. Sean is further proof that Hollywood can manufacture anybody to be a celebrity.

[billhilly]

What's the mystery? This gets him attention. Case (almost) closed, but for the fact that press agents get paid to do this.
