Steaming Mad Over 'Children and Sex' Book (transcript O'Reilly vrs Joycelyn Elders)

Fox News ^ | 4/09/02 | Fox transcript

[LarryLied]

BILL O'REILLY, HOST:In the Personal Story segment tonight, a controversial new book called Harmful to Minors. It comes out in May, and already some Americans are steaming mad, calling the book evil. That's because it says, among other things, that sex is not harmful to children. It is a vehicle for self-knowledge. And that the threat of pedophilia and molestation is exaggerated in America.

[the_Watchman]

. . . begin to feel themselves. That to me, that's sex. You know, sex is more than intercourse, outercourse. It's really about feeling good about your body.

Where was she when everybody, including some doctors who plainly sullied their own reputations, was trying to tell us the Bill Clinton was truthful about "not having sex"???

[goodnesswins]

Depends upon what the meaning of "sex" is.....(and, depends upon who is talking, Democrap or Republican.)

[ohioWfan]

I saw the interview. This woman is frightening!

She demonstrated the ultimate illogic, and convoluted reasoning of the amoral left. She didn't respond accurately to a thing O'Reilly said, refused to admit the obvious (that the book she wrote the preface for is hideously evil), and smiled all the while.

Satan is hard at work in this country, and Elders is the personification of the success he is achieving. We need to be in constant prayer for America to counter this evil from within.

[hole_n_one]

I just read the CNN transcript and it's wrong.......the word is ped-E-ophile.......just axe anyone

[goldstategop]

Bravo for Bill O'Reilly. He really nailed Clinton's sleazebag Surgeon General's hide to the wall. Now, reasonable people can differ on whether Jocelyn's Elders' advocacy of masturbation by adults as a sexual practice is harmdul or not. Where I and every one else on this forum and in this country, apart from Elders and the woman she wrote the foreword to the book for, is we have a total aversion to the sexual exploitation of children by adults. That is pedophilia. That is wrong. And that is EVIL. Its just too bad as someone as educated as Elders doesn't get it even after O'Reilly confronted her on it. Then again its probably fitting she's so obtuse and morally equivalent on sexuality, since she has all the ethics of William Jefferson Clinton.

[DoughtyOne]

If this woman isn't the poster child for why affirmative action isn't a good thing, I don't know who would be? This woman truly is dumber than a brick.

[friendly]

As a typical loyal Clinton vermin, Joycelyn Elders offers her profound insight into what constitutes sex.

Her accused rapist and serial sexual predator boss, the disbarred and impeached ex-president gave us similar wisdom.

[Maelstrom]

I give up...what planet IS she from?

[Bubba_Leroy]

It depends on what the meaning of "sex" is.

It also depends on what the meaning of "psychotic ignorant commie bitch" is.

[DoughtyOne]

Tune in later, I'll try to throw up the audio of this interview. This is something the left should be able to cherish in perpetuity. She's just another Hillary Clinton appointee along the lines of Janet Reamo.

[Anamensis]

And then she goes on to say "we relish our erotic attraction to children."

?????????????????

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(gag)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FlyVet]

ELDERS: You know, Bill, let me just say this. Nobody in the world feels that it's all right for adults to have sex with children,

So, she's never heard of NAMBLA? Dim bulb.....

[Reactionary]

Gosh, another brainless socialist in favor of child rape. How enlightened.

[Reactionary]

If Elders is an example of the "Talented Tenth," I can't wait to hear about the "Bottom Fifth."

[goldstategop]

You couldn't have rephrased my thoughts better. And what's REALLY disgusting, is that in another context it would strike one as absolutely hilarious, is liberals claim everything they do is for the children. I can't believe a lowlife like Elders thinks an adult sexually touching a child can be good for the children. Surely she hasn't heard of reputable studies that have demonstrated a proven link between childhood sexual abuse and children growing up to become molesters themselves? Isn't that reason enough not abuse a child's mind and body and to allow our children to grow up to be themselves with safe and happy childhoods? Yes, sexuality is rampant in the adult culture, but that's no reason to expose children to it. Elders' writing a foreword to such an EVIL book is simply additional evidence an M.D degree means doctors, like an authority, can sometimes be wrong. And this woman is simply, plainly wrong about the existence of a sexual attraction perforce between adults and children. It may well exist, but its still WRONG and moreover its ILLEGAL. Someone should explain the facts of life to Dr. Elders as O'Reilly's attempts to get them through seemed wasted on her.

[texlok]

ELDERS: We use our children to sell everything from toothpaste to houses.

I'll agree with that. We have a dead six year old in Colorado to prove that point. But that's about it.

[Captainpaintball]

Oh Lord, I pray that when Dr. Elders feels the need to do a little jostlin' she grab a cactus instead...

[F16Fighter]

Leave it to the Clintons to appoint atomic fallout mutants Jocelyn Elders as THE Surgeon General, and Janet Reno as Attorney General out of an entire country of 280 million citizens.

Is there any question that all these people have a common thread in that they are ALL obviously and clinically deeply disturbed?
