LOL -- you ARE a troublemaker in a delightful way. One with ALL the facts.

Hey, you had some chart or something that you were going to pull out when O'Reilly said he was out of time. What was that going to be?

Alas, I had to work tonight. With luck, I'll watch you on the taping that I asked my Wife(Nicely)to record. If you hear a scream eminating fron the Rocky Mountains, you'll know I missed you.

But, upon reading these posts here and at the other thread, I could only guess that you once again did a wonderful job, Kevin. Bravo Zulu!

Excellent history of West Virginia as opposed to Virginia.

O'Reilly said, "Byrd is a southerner" and Kevin came back with the CORRECT history. West Viriginia separated from Virginia and joined the north. Byrd would never have been a "southern general" during the Civil War.

Kevin is right....it's highly inappropriate for KKK Byrd to appear in a southern officer uniform. It's historically inaccurate and, given his comments about NEVER fighting alongside a 'negro,' having Byrd in any uniform is offensive.

Good seeing you last night. I must admit I was disappointed that you weren't able to make a bigger deal out of Byrd's use of the n-word.

Just finished watching the show and you were great you old trouble maker you! So Byrd wouldn't come on the show? What a rat he is besides being a racist KKK lover. He even showed Byrd all dressed up as a racist! It was a good show.

I liked the first part too where The Jesse Jackson shakedown get together with Bush people at wall street was slammed but GOOD by O'Reilly and Innis and the elected republican couldn't even defend it without looking like a fool! But its good to pander to Jesse Jackson while ignoring their friends is what the republucan was saying.

Powell should not go. Ever! Lots of negative press on this one issue is coming. From O'Reilly that is for sure.

For reference here it is...

CNSNews.com) - Conservative critics of Jesse Jackson and his liberal political agenda are railing about what they see as a "terrible mistake" by two prominent Bush administration officials who have agreed to speak at Jackson's annual Wall Street fundraiser next week.

Some say the administration is being duped into participating in Jackson's event, while others say they're appalled by the participation of Bush administration officials.

Michael Powell, the Bush designated chairman of the Federal Communication Commission (FCC), and Roel Campos, the Bush appointed commissioner of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are both scheduled to appear Jan. 16 at Jackson's 6th annual Rainbow/PUSH Wall Street Project.

Powell is a Republican and the son of Secretary of State Colin Powell.

Fenimore Fisher, the deputy director of the Wall Street Project confirmed to CNSNews.com that Powell and Campos are going to appear at the awards luncheon.

Powell is scheduled to introduce NYSE chairman Richard Grasso and Campos will be a keynote speaker for the event titled "Necessities for Economic Stimulation & Parameters for Corporate Governance." The 2003 Wall Street Project is being billed as "Equity for All: Establishing the Economic Agenda for Growth" and runs from Jan. 14 -17.

Powell's office did not respond to four inquiries seeking comment, but Campos' office did confirm that the SEC commissioner would be speaking at the awards luncheon.

When asked whether the appearance of Campos at Jackson's event would amount to an endorsement of Jackson's politics, an official with the SEC who did not wish to be identified downplayed Campos' role as "very limited."

Jackson's detractors were quick to denounce the appearance of the two Bush administration officials.

Y'all DO know that Sheets Byrd was born in North Carolina. So of course Junior Edwards is gonna look up to him.

Wow, that's the first time I've ever heard O'Reilly cede a point to a guest!

Me too.

Kevin you were great. My husband and I enjoyed watching you last night. Keep up the good work.
