Fox News ^ | Sept. 9, 2008 | The O'Reilly Factor

Posted on 09/09/2008 8:07:14 PM PDT by Colquhoun

And there are certain things we've got to do. Our infrastructure — look what happened in Beijing. You go to the Olympics and these folks are building, and we've got sewer lines that are crumbling.

This quote is an excerpt from Bill O'Reilly's interview with Barack Obama Part 2. Why did Bill O'Reilly let Obama get away with saying this? Anyone ever heard of a Potemkin Village? I lived in Beijing for three years and no one with any knowledge of this Communist, Third World country would compare it with ours.

Everyone here knows me and they know how I’ve come down on O’Reilly for being soft... He was good and tough....’

Good job, Bill

Egads Obama is stupid. The Beijing building boom associated to the Olympics wasn't a Potemkin village--now that they've given up Communism in all but name and become fascist, the ChiComs have a real economy--but it was, drum roll please a building boom associated with the Olympics.

Every city that hosts the Olympics has a short-lived building boom. And, Barack: a lot of China still doesn't have running water or underground sewers, kinda like Kenya where your half-brother still lives in a hut.

Good grief. All of China is drowning in sewage and dying of pollution poisons.

Hey, Obama, you going to give us a Five Year Plan? Or maybe you can introduce the Four Year Plan, to match our elections cycles. I’m sure that Lenin, Stalin, and Mao would approve of that, at least until you do away with real elections.

On the whole I think O’Reilly is a bloviating blowhard, but ... he came down hard on Obama for William Ayers and his other communist pals ... and in plain English. It was a job well-done by Bill O’Reilly!

He’s still on the China line? A couple weeks have passed and no one’s told him (and apparently he’s too braindead to figure out himself) why we don’t do things like an authoritarian one-party state?

I was pretty impressed too—O’Reilly really called him on a lot. He was not awed by the Messiah.

Bill did a good job even though he let this go by, but Bill’s more awed by himself than Obama any day.

It’s hard to tell if he’s pouring the Kool-aid or drinking it.

Agreed. Obama came across as weak, and not very Presidential.
