Bill-O is the epitome of the GOP's basic philosophy in life, which is I've got mine and screw the rest of you, and his Talking Points Memo this Tuesday was no exception to that rule.
O'Reilly did his best to push the latest talking point from our corporate media, distorting Bernie Sanders' economic proposals and pretending that they're going to cost $18 trillion above and beyond the money Americans are already paying for these services, and completely ignoring any of the savings or economic benefits derived from them, and for good measure he lumped Clinton right in with him as well, and decided that she must be a Socialist too.
O'Reilly might be surprised to find out that most Americans are "Socialists" when it comes to protecting Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security and our social safety nets, and not wanting to see their earned benefits slashed after years of paying their tax dollars into the system and assuming it would be there for them in their time of need or when they retire.
