O'Reilly was a speaker or something at some event,maybe at a high school....a group of Hispanics were part of the organized entertainment and they were late coming out to do their bit....O'Reilly cracked that maybe they're out in the parking lot stealing our hubcaps.

O'Reilly says people laughed.....he's been getting hammered for that slur.

I've heard bits and pieces about this comment here on the FR. Also Robert Reich brought up the hubcap comment when he was on the "Factor" last week. Funny how Bill didn't call him a S.O.B. Bill made no comment to what Reich said.

I do have to wonder if and/or what he said.

.......O'Reilly cracked.......

OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH...........NOW I remember what the hubcap incident was! Thanks!

Actually it always sounded to me that this was one of those off-the-cuff remarks like Perot's, "You people......", that can be viewed a couple of different ways depending on who you are.

Anyways...........KUDOS to Boortz. O'Reilly lost it and Boortz laughed and smiled his way through the whole thing.

Thanks for the explanation! That explains it all.... Bill's suffering from that "Mexican" racial slur and now he's trying to compensate for it by becoming the racial police.
