PostWed Jan 19, 2005 8:31 pm    Bill OReilly

Watching his show now, and he was ranting about the governer of california going against Rice about the war on terror. He actually said (loose quote):

'Is there anyone out there, anyone at all, who wants this person calling the shots in the war on terror?'

As I shouted yes at the screen, he told me that anyone sane wouldnt want her to.

Basically, he supports the Bush administration 100%. He supports the war on terror, and now hes ranting about far left liberals spending tons of money on trying to unseat Bush. He is a republican 100%.

Yes, sorry. Senator Boxer.

My point here being, that he isnt symathetic to the right side. At all.

He was discussing this "liberal rich guy" plot to overthrow the Bush cabinet. It was really funny, he was ranting on about how they wouldnt let go of the election results...Sounds so familiar.

Now hes talking about Bush winning by a massive margin. It was less than 1%. Literally amazing what this guy says.

And he keeps stressing the fact that Fox gets more ratings than CNN. As if that says anything. Hes said that at least 5 times now.

I cant stand him, but, to keep up with both sides of things, I watch him at least once a week. Hurts my brain it does.

The margin, I agree with you, it was one of the five smallest wins in history. Yet, though O'Reilly attacks liberals at times, the conservatives didn't take too well to comments of "Right Wing Nuts." And, I believe you mean "sympathetic to the left side." ... *ahem* Not that I'm trying to be critical. But the first time, it was my governor. Boxer needs to be bounced.

O'Reilly doesn't make anyone happy, entirely. Listen to Savage for a show or two, I guarentee mentioning of "The Leprechaun." Which isn't a fond nickname.

Yeah he supports it 100% even though he disagreed with things Bush did. Your math really sucks. He supports the war on Terror? So? There are Democrats who do too. Whats your point? I agree he is a Republican. Calling him a Democrat is mean. Let us not do that ok?

What? Yes he is....

If O'Reilly says something that means hes ranting. A Dem. says something "Intelligent debate". Yeah Gore was annoying with the election and not accepting his loss.

Now hes talking about Bush winning by a massive margin. It was less than 1%. Literally amazing what this guy says.

I don't think he was going by percentges. His point? BUSH WON.

And he keeps stressing the fact that Fox gets more ratings than CNN. As if that says anything. Hes said that at least 5 times now.

Hes just rubbing it in?

I cant stand him, but, to keep up with both sides of things, I watch him at least once a week. Hurts my brain it does.


I know how you feel. I used to watch the Bill Maher show on HBO. Take an advil before you watch. It helps with the stupidity that comes out of people's mouths.

No, RM keeps whining saying hes a left wing sympathizer. Im saying that couldnt be farther from the truth.

I meant to say left.

Anyways, OReilly is good at rubbing things in. Like the ratings, like the election. And you make yourself look really stupid when you say bush won. Everyone knows that. Youre pulling an OReilly there. I hate it when people say that over and over. Its so overkill. Dont mean to put that point across quite so harshly, but yeah.

...Republican? I'm even having a hard time calling myself a Republican by now. (NOT in the sense I lean left AT ALL, mind you) He's pretty well center, to me.

I dont see how you could possibly say that. Hes so damn right wing. All the things he says, there is no way he couldnt be right wing. There just isnt. The day I see him say anything left wing, is the day I fall over in my chair. Ive never seen it happen, and I dont think I ever will. Hes not in the center, hes quite right of the center.

Ok ok you're right. Hes like a Moderate type. He just has some right views. Why are you having trouble calling yourself Republican?

Getting sick of some of the things about the party...I would still vote Republican, only because I have to. I still don't like the way they're moving. A little moderate in some aspects, for my taste.

My gosh, no. I'm still for the promotion of values aspect. Just...having only two major parties is convuluted. Republican by voting-style (Because I have no choice), further conservative than many Republicans by personal values. That's all.

And, you know, O'Reilly repeteadly calls both Conservatives and Liberals names, does admonish that Iraq isn't not going well, and is an environmentalist. I thought he was liberal at one point. (No, Defiant, don't gasp or laugh or anything reminiscent of that...) It's just his talent.

LOL, more power to you man. I dream of a system where we had more than one option or the other. So silly that we only have two choices.

No, he does not, and no he is not. He is far from Republican! You just can't stand the fact that since he disagrees with you and Boxer and what Boxer did, therefore he's a Republican. Hasty generalizations if I ever saw one And he was right there.

Defiant wrote:

Exactly. He isn't sympathetic to the right side He's FAIR, actually. Often Liberal, often Conservative, right down in the middle, and fair. Watch him every night, if you will. Like last night, he was fair to both sides.

He was discussing this "liberal rich guy" plot to overthrow the Bush cabinet. It was really funny, he was ranting on about how they wouldnt let go of the election results...Sounds so familiar.

But true. He rants on things that he finds are morally wrong to both sides. I've seen him attack both sides, and be supportive of both sides. Sure, he's gone to far left, but not right.


Now hes talking about Bush winning by a massive margin. It was less than 1%. Literally amazing what this guy says.

Actually, no. He won the most amount of votes of ANY President, and DID win by a large margin. 3% IS a lot, you know.

And he keeps stressing the fact that Fox gets more ratings than CNN. As if that says anything. Hes said that at least 5 times now.

Why would he not? FOX is MUCH younger than CNN, and he has the right to show that FOX is beating out that outlet, but then again, you can't take that, can you?

I cant stand him, but, to keep up with both sides of things, I watch him at least once a week. Hurts my brain it does.

Exactly. He is an environmentalist, is not fond of Iraq now, etc.

1. Figured the first.
2. Sure, he's excited about ratings of the network, but he SHOULD be.
3. Rubbing in the election! You've got to be kidding me! Not ONCE--NOT ONCE--have I seen him rub it in for EITHER side! He was FAIR--TOO fair to the Dems in my opinion.

Why you little--- Right, yeah, agreed on the last point, but I'm for the GOP, 100% Unlike Bill.

Nope. He's to the center, he's fair, and he's becoming more and more Liberal, like FOX. It's disgusting.

Did you watch him last night? Guess not. He was ATTACKING the Bush administration! Hard on Iraq! Republican, right. And I�m Michael Moore.
