1. 10 million at least... eom

[Bluebear]

2. Admission of a guilty falafel

[SheWhoMustBeObeyed]

3. Olbermann's gonna be heartbroken n/t

[0007]

24. So am I.

[AIJ Alom]

4. Republican ways of settling things. Nothing bad happened at all. Nothing.

[Az_lefty]

7. Yea, Republicans can cover up anything with enough $$$$

[underpants]

5. WOW I almost felafel my chair

Okay that is the second time I have used that joke

[Emboldened Chimp]

9. Haha...it's worth repeating.

:thumbsup:

[Wickerman]

15. my first time seeing

You must be the grandson of Henny Youngman.

a groaner that brings a chuckle.

[Ilsa]

20. Where are your underpants?

I miss them.

[lumberingbear]

33. I liked the underpants too!!! eom

[Peanut Gallery]

39. first time I've read it... LOL

[Catfight]

49. That's way too funny not to be used in the media! n/t

[Catfight]

50. That's way too funny not to be used in the media! n/t

[soupkitchen]

6. Changes name of show to No Spinsters Zone

Will no longer hire uptight female assistant producers

[Neshanic]

8. Well loofah me sideways! Oh the humanity...the tapes, lost forever.

[CookieD]

10. Well, he finally got her to SHUT UP. n/t

[Infomaniac]

11. O'Lielly ain't going to be able to keep his yap shut.

At some point, in the near future, O'Lielly will make some bone-headed statement about Ms. Mackris being out to get him or some such nonsense. He won't be able to resist putting his spin on this so I'm sure we haven't heard the last of f-gate.

[JPace]

19. "O'Lielly ain't going to be able to keep his yap shut."

He will shut up.....he has a wife and if he wants to keep
her he will want this story buried deep and soon.

[sphincter]

34. Would be interesting to see

what good ol' Buffalo Bill's missus take is on this whole ordeal. Wonder if he is turning falafel tricks at home as well.

[PROGRESSIVE1]

27. and then she can sue him again for slander!!!

[jdj]

51. not only that, but other women will be coming out of the woodwork

when they realize they missed a shot a millions of $$$$.

They won't have phone tapes like she did, so Fox won't settle or sue them. They won't have any recourse but to go to the media and sell their stories. O'Reilly will feign indignation, but shockingly, no libel suits will be filed.

[stevedeshazer]

12. Worst news I've heard all day in a good/bad news cycle

I wanted to hear the tapes. I wanted to hear BO'R defend his conduct.

Now, he writes a big check, goes on making shitloads of money spreading lies.

[Mandate My Ass]

13. What a putz

after hearing what was on those tapes, all I can say is the perv has no swerve.

[skordane]

14. No No No. Please No!!!!

The Horror! The Horror!

[Hatalles]

16. At least his guests will have something to throw back in his face...

... when he takes the "moral highground" on whatever issue.

[MADem]

21. Yeah, can you HEAR the comebacks??

Stuff a falafel in it, Bill!!!

[gardenista]

17. He will break the settlement agreement. Just wait.

I hope that baby is iron clad.

[JPace]

18. I'm so glad I don't have to listen to all the gritty details

of O'Reilly's sicko sexual fantasies in grinding
detail cranked out hourly day after day week after
week until I want to throw up.

Thank Goodness Ms. Mackris settled....I hope she got many
millions. She deserves it for putting up with Bill.

[Arugula Latte]

22. O'Reilly's going to have to go for the bargain vibrators now.

Poor Bill. This will set him back a few bucks. Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ...

[w4rma]

23. She destroyed the tapes to become a millionare. :( (nt)

[ramapo]

25. O'Reilley = Dirty Scum

I know somebody who worked for O'Reilley. He told me there was no doubt that O'Reilley was caught with his pants down, 100% guilty as charged.

As you might guess, O'Reilley is as obnoxious, rude, arrogant, and hypocritical in real life as he is on TV.

[KlatooBNikto]

26. O'reilly,Bennett,Gingrich, Jeb are going to form a Virtues Quartet

and tour the country handing out sex toys to teenagers telling them how that could wreck their lives, if they were found out!

On Edit: I almost forgot Neil and Jimmy Swaggart.And of course Maximum Leader and his dad talking pussy.

[delete_bush]

30. I've forgotten all about the pussy talk

is there any way to get this out there one more time before Tuesday? I doubt most voters know about this.

[KlatooBNikto]

35. We will need help from some DUers who are tech savvy.

[delete_bush]

37. I'd sure hate to find that

someone, for example, hacked Drudge's site with such an article.

Sidenote to Mr. Ashcroft/FBI: this was meant only as a joke. My respect for fair play, such as that exhibited by your glorious leader, would prohibit me from seriously advocating this. Seriously.

[happynewyear]

28. hide behind your guilt you freak

Everyone knows now O'Vibe and we shall not forget!

PIG!



:kick:

[pk_du]

32. Ahh....O'Leilly checking out his new Vibro...and wondering

..."where can I stick the third prong!"


Belated apologies to the squeemish ( but you should have known this thread was going to go in a bad direction?)

[telex54]

29. This stinks.

:thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown::thumbsdown:

[VegasWolf]

31. If O'Lielly had just used a phone sex line at 9.99 a minute, he would

have been better off. Maybe next time he will. is
there one for food used as a sexual relief device?

New Information Shows Bush Indecisive, Paranoid, Delusional

[camero]

36. "This matter has caused tremendous pain"

I guess so when you have a vibrator up your butt.

[goforit]

38. I guess he just can't take the heat!!!!

[Chimpanzee]

40. He's a Dick

[Erika]

41. How Hilarious! The No Spin Zone Just Spun Out of Control!

First Bennett, then Rush, and now O'Reilly.

[jdj]

52. How the mighty have fallen.

Glad I'm around to see it.

[Swamp Rat]

42. So, therefore O'Reilly admits he's a sexual pervert.

[monobrau]

43. News tonight spun it

Local newscaster said O'Rielly had denied the charges, which is incorrect. That's the beauty of it - he never denied it, just called it trash. It's worth it just to watch his groveling followers get shit on and still stand by their man.

[Tight_rope]

44. Fuck that...I want to know how much the bastard paid...

[sofa king]

45. He shoulda worked on his three point shot.

Okay, maybe I shouldn't have said that.

But it felt so good!

[Andrushka]

46. "Take this and SHUT UP!" Yeah, nice.

[Dem2theMax]

47. Poor Keith Olbermann. We should send him sympathy cards.

Did any of you see that he had pledges of up to $127,000 I think it was tonight, to help pay for the tapes? lol.

Maybe someone from DU could oh, say, make a tape for Keith. Anyone have some good recording equipment and a good sense of humor?
Betcha could get some air play on Countdown! :bounce:

[Bark Bark Bark]

48. We Still Have...

(1) TheSmokingGun.com (for details)
(2) Food-For-Sex Jokes Out The Yin-Yang (for calling the show)
(3) Parody Laws (for web animations)

Falafel-Ass only THINKS he's made the problem go away.

Call him to recommend Subway's Turkey Bacon and Ranch Wrap. It's a TIGHT wrap, baby. Oh, yeah.
