6. listening to the exOFranken show today
no mention of it so far

missed beginning of show, but heard him giving it to OReilly about upbringing

might have mentioned it before that

can't imagine he wouldn't have brought it up

speaking of OReilly, this is fun
http://www.mejeffdorchen.oblivio.com/moments/moment_oreilly.html

I was watching CSPAN one day. CSPAN is a network that finds out where something boring is happening and sends some kid out to set up a camera and leave it turned on. On this particular occasion the kid had left the CSPAN camera running during a booksellers' convention. And there happened to be a panel discussion. Here's the people that were on the panel: Al Franken, plugging his new book, "Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: a fair and balanced look at the right;" Molly Ivins, plugging her new book, whatever it is; and Bill O'Reilly, plugging his new book, "Why I Hate Poor People" or something.

And here's what Bill O'Reilly had to say: "Oh, come on, Al." He said it over and over. It meant absolutely nothing, but it certainly served to make me forget the name of Molly Ivins' book and anything anyone else had to say. That Bill O'Reilly sure can whine. He is a whining little bitch. "Oh, come on, Al. Oh, come on, Al. Oh, come on, Al." He's cruisin' for a bruisin', that Bill O'Reilly. So disgusted, he is, so indignant and fed up. He couldn't even engage in discussion, he could only whine: Oh, come on, Al.

I don't know why Al Franken didn't just tell him to shut the hell up. You can tell by Al's facial structure and stocky build that he has a huge, dangling sack of gonads, like a lion probably. So why did he wuss out? Why didn't he say, "'Oh, come on, Al, Oh, come on, Al,' is that all you can say, Bill? Are you a parrot, Bill? Are you a broken record, Bill? Or do you somehow consider 'Oh, come on, Al,' an intelligent contribution to the discussion here? If you think that by acting disgusted you somehow disprove my points, you're wrong. People aren't as stupid as you seem to believe, Bill. They're not going to accept your infantile theatrics in place of real content. My book is going to sell like hotcakes and keep W from winning a second term just like "Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot" kept Clinton in the White House in spite of the rightwing smear campaign and his own insatiable lust. And all your phony frustration isn't going to stop that from happening, you whiny conservative baby."

O'Reilly had this guy on his show, The O'Reilly Factor — I think this guy was Belgian, and he was trying to explain why the USA should support and participate in a world court that would try war criminals. The guy could barely get a word out without O'Reilly saying, "Oh, come on." The Belgian kept pressing his point but could even then barely get it across because he was laughing at what he took to be O'Reilly's comically overblown indignation.
