Boortz on FOX's O'Reilly tonight to debate the Georgia Prom.

[katz]

Boortz on The Factor "No Spin Zone". Boortz said that he was invited on the show to discuss the Georgia prom.

[katz]

YES> And I bet he knows when a FReep poll is done.

[NormsRevenge]

IN the Bay "Liebral infested" Area, KNEW 910 AM has him from 1 to 4 PM weekdays. I do Hannity from 12 to 1 PM on KSFO and then catch Neal and skip Dr. Laura on KSFO.

[katz]

Guess Boortz got the best of him.

[Humidston]

O'Reilly's little time has passed - it's high time to move on to the "Boortz Factor".

I'll SECOND that motion!!

[oceanview]

Roger Ailes should make a big move and get Rush for the show. No audience, just a single person forum show like OReilly has now. Done deal, #1 in the ratings for as long as he wants to do it.

[CaptainK]

On important point that the unctuous Lloyd Grove left out:
The charity event had a 1950's theme. Stealing hubcaps was a popular prank with 50's teenagers. Just watch "Happy Days". That was the point of Bill's lame joke. No racism was intended.

That said, I think Bill is really going overboard with this story. Cornell allows black students to have their own dorms. Cornell gets state and federal aid for grants. Why isn't he calling on President Bush or Governor Pataki to protest there? I'm sure they have nothing more important to do, just like the Governor of Georgia.

[katz]

I guess that is what O'Reilly believes. He isn't my master, but I like to see him debated. Since he cussed, I guess he lost it tonight.

[ErnBatavia]

I've been pretty disdainful of O'Reilly since he was out here in the desert a month and a half ago for a World Affairs Council gig - top students from the local skools got comped; he totally ignored them during the "mixer period".

Rudy Giuliani was on the ticket the week before, and that was a WHOLE different story. Maybe because he's a natural politician, and O'Reilly is just an aloof graduate of Inside Edition - Rudy worked the kids over and over and over. They loved him.

[I_be_tc]

Someone should have O'Reilly get with the Congressional Black Caucus and explain why that is allowed on our tax dime. Isn't this a private club in Washington, DC?

[Endeavor]

I thought Ms. King, the Governor's assistant, did a really good job of staying on point last night when O'Reilly was trying to cut her down to peanut size.

Tonight was really fun watching Boortz and Bill go at it.

I'd never heard of Neal, but he sure did tick off Billy. I thought we might get to see them rolling up their sleeves and going at it. Neal really rattled Bill.

That said, I think holding a private party and calling it a "White Prom" is ridiculous -- those who participated should be embarrassed and their parents should have never let them attend.

So much for treating people equally.

O'Reilly's just trying to capitalize on the sensationalism of the thing. He can be a bit much, can't he?! Well, he got his comeupance.

[Katya]

"Unless that is the way the kids at the school want it. Did that thought ever cross your mind?"

Uh....I'd say that was exactly what crossed my mind. In fact, I also thought that their lame parents probably supported this unique idea.

[katz]

Ping! I love this. I was only trying to bring attention to Boortz vs O'Reilly. I am for what is legally right. This wasn't a school event.

[Humidston]

When we lived in NY (1992-'93), I heard Prager on WABC and became an instant fan. That man has more logic in his little finger than most. Not to mention, I deeply admire his ethics. I love that man's opinions!

[Diddle E. Squat]

So if the kids want the Blacks to eat in a separate lunchroom and ride on the back of the bus, would that make it alright?

Sheesh.

[Katya]

"Would you prefer a governmentally enforced coercive integration? "

Been there, seen it....not pretty, it was called bussing.

I understand that there are natural divisions....but I guess I'm from a different cultural place. I've always mixed company freely, and would feel a loss at not having had so many different friends from all walks of life. I can't imagine having gone to school dances that were segregated, although I know this is part of America's history.
Look, don't start in using the Left's mantra "Don't Judge, be tolerant"....sorry, I'm judging this to be amazingly odd and a bit twisted in 2003.

[Apollo]

they must start grooming someone to replace him.

Can you say "Shephard Smith".

[TankerKC]

Sheesh yourself. The fact is that BOTH blacks and whites prefer do to their own thing at times. If that's what they want, why should anyone stop them?

Try to get beyond the "back of the bus" cliche.

[TankerKC]

You do know that when I say kids I mean both black and white kids, right? This seems silly to me, but there is a lot of "self segregation" here in Alabama.

[Diddle E. Squat]

The FReepers I know, including myself, said they would allow their kids to attend an all white prom.

I cannot believe that I just read that. How is that not supporting racial segregation? I'm all for the RIGHT of free association, but to exclude someone based on race is downright disgusting and something I would think all good Freepers would want no part of.

Please tell me that I misunderstood your comments.

[Roscoe]

See #60.

Good grief.
