Typical leftwing name calling as seen on this forum:

Faux News
Bill O'liely
Rush Limpballs
Sarah Wailin
Wingnut

And if you look, you will find other examples (Rightwingthink).

I only reply in the language that those such as you can understand.

Oh, spare me. Like liberalism, conservative name calling has a long tradition.
And of course, to you, this makes it okay? Or do you continue it only so you will fit in with your bigoted buddies?

Pitiful.
Acknowledged or asserted?

I think his Fox persona is an act - one that is tailor made for Fox News viewers. He's the Alice Cooper of 24 hour cable news networks - probably can't wait until his show is over and he can become a normal person again.
Not unlike Steven Colbert.

What President Obama Can Teach Americas Kids | Parade.com


The Parade editor asked Bill:

"Why did you write the article? Given your audience and what your fans expect of you, why write something supporting Obama?"

"I don't agree with all of Obama's policies," O'Reilly said. "But I admire what he's done as a person. I came from poor circumstances and I'm impressed by how he lifted himself up. I think it's a good lesson, and children can learn from it. We should take positive examples wherever we find them."
You conveniently left out that he's also taken major hits from the radical left.

Only when he's conservative. when he says something good about Obama, he's taken his Fox right wing blinders off.

Isn't it astounding how when he agrees with one side he is to be respected, but if he disagrees he should be pillaried. Must be a measure of at least trying to find a balance.

I read the article and found a new respect for Bill O.

No, Stephen Colbert does a comedy show in which he plays a conservative. Bill O IS a conservative supposedly doing a fact-based news/opinion show. They are not the same.

I don't watch Bills show very often, and will never be able to forget his whole "war on Christmas" debacle, but he was on Rachel Ray's show recently and was pretty entertaining. It really makes me wonder how much of what he says he actually believes, or if it's an act for the $$.

If you add a laugh track to Bill O's show it would come darn close though!
