Freeper co-worker thinks O'Reilly was set up

[NewJeffCT]

Basically, he thinks this woman is trying to set O'Reilly up and that the restaurant guy that said she had a crush on O'Reilly proves it.

Is he barking up the wrong tree?

And, is O'Reilly married?

[goodboy]

1. married with kids...restaurant owner wants a piece of the action. nt

[Laf.La.Dem.]

2. Wrong tree

She was offered $2,000,000.00 to drop the charges - "set up":mad:

[NewJeffCT]

10. Not to defend my co-worker

But, I am guessing that he is thinking of it as a "jilted lover seeks revenge" type of thing. I'll try to talk to him again tomorrow. Maybe mention that O'Reilly admitted to something 'stupid' on his radio show...

[MADem]

3. Married with a PREGNANT WIFE

...and unless they have TAPE, they're definitely woofing up the wrong tree. I don't think they have a tape. Who covered this story? Murdoch's Post, that's who. See a pattern? Talk about a sleazebag, talk about a desperate move!

[bullimiami]

5. married with a preg wife and 2 little kids

and a bushel of pompous grandstanding.

i think they have recordings because of the specific quotes cited in the filing.

[AngryLizard]

6. Does anyone have a problem seeing

O'Reilly as a hypocritical sleazeball? 'Cause I don't. He looks just like a guy who would try to impress you with some deep idealogical/political point while taking non-subtle glances down your blouse.

He's also the type of idiot who says, "Prove to me I'm lying." And then people prove to him he's lying. His balls are bigger than his brain. I think we should start a countdown to when Fox starts to cut him loose. And then throw a party when it happens.

[Eloriel]

4. Set up HOW?

Either he did that stuff, or he didn't. I haven't heard of him denying it even once, anywhere, have you? Just complaining about being "a target" because he's so famous, dontchaknow.

Are you saying that your "freeper friend" thinks she MADE HIM DO IT? That it's all her fault (common narcissist/sociopathic perp distracting/take the offensive claim, btw)?

I repeat: either he did all that or he didn't. Unless he thinks she made him do it (unlikely to impossible), where exactly is the set up?

Edited to add: Not very many women are self-destructive enough to file false charges about sexual predators -- whether sexual harrassment, rape, etc. The firestorm they evoke by DARING to confront their assailants, almost always including the most vicious attacks on their credibility imaginable AND revelations about their past sexual history, takes a great deal of courage from women who actually have been wronged. Again, not many women go through that for FALSE charges.

Further, have you read the complaint? I haven't, but I have read snippets. She has numerous word-for-word quotations in there. It's not impossible to make that shit up, but it's unlikely, IMO.

[bullimiami]

8. does your freeper friend think clinton was set up too?

i thought not. and clinton had a consensual (although innapropriate) relationship with monica.

o'reilly is in a position of power and used his power to attempt to extort sexual favors. wrong and illegal.

[belle]

24. I don't think freepers understand the whole "consensual" concept, sadly.

These are people who learned everything they needed to know about relations with women from Ross Jeffries and Penthosue letters, after all...

[belle]

21. Yeah, really. What'd she do, hypnotize him into making lewd remarks?

Seduced him with her wily ways, no doubt. pooooooor Bill.

As for his non-denial denials: they're pretty damning. Something about (via his lawyer, no less) he didn't do anything that went so far as to break the law. mmmmHMMmm.

[Skittles]

7. please ask him how I would go about getting a guy to call me

and advise me he would like to use falafel on my pussy

[noiretextatique]

20. LMFAO....

:toast: too f'ng funny...

[CatWoman]

26. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

DITTO!!

:thumbsup:

[jdj]

32. yes, that does have that "so good it has to be legit."

ring about it. And the cadence of his speech in the quotes, the "uhs' and "you knows" you can just hear the asshole. When you paraphrase people, you leave out those kinds of things.

[deutsey]

9. Personal responsibility...ain't it great?

:eyes:

[0rganism]

11. Did she somehow sneak a vibrator into his anus, too?

How very clever.

[ret5hd]

13. whoop! there it is...whoop! there it is...(nt)

[jdj]

33. oh, yuck. Is that were it was?? in his o'hiney?

bleck for that visual image.

I never thought he'd put it up in there.

[johnnie]

12. O'Reily WAS setup

He set himself up by being an idiot. He admitted to what he did and said he was stupid.
This guy is really a nobody. He thought he was really a big time player in this world and it got the best of them. They get their asses kissed while they are shills for certain people and then they think that they really ARE important and they can get away with anything. He isn't a very smart individual and he did something that got him in trouble. He is no different than Rush. Just shills that are being used by the people with money and power and when it is said and done they will be on their own.

[NewJeffCT]

15. good point

Rush, O'Reilly, Hannity, etc are all just being used.

[porphyrian]

14. Stupid people are hard to work with. - n/t

[camero]

16. That's funny

Because O'Lielly called her. Some setup.

[ProfessorGAC]

17. But Clinton Wasn't, Right?

Yeah sure. Your coworker is a tree stump.
The Professor

[maveric]

18. Right! Any scandal to a RW/repug is always a set-up.

And Libruls are all hedonistic, philandering, goat fuckers, who cant keep it in their pants.

Denial and delusions.

[MADem]

23. At least they aren't in the habit of

shoving vibrators, that they NAME, up their nether regions! Because if they did, it would be a full page headline in every paper in America, no matter how minor the Democrat involved.

Say, anyone know what he named his little toy? Bill's Brain? Dildo Reilly? The Factor Packer?

[walldude]

35. The Factor Packer

now that was funny :D :D :D

[Robbie67]

19. Pre-emptive damage control

that way, when the case goes to court, O'Reilly can use the media and claim that the "stories" about the set-up are true

[noiretextatique]

22. well...if the restaurant guy said it

:shrug: it must be true

[Jane Austin]

25. Yeah, well I think Clinton was set up.

In the movie version of "The Hunting of the President" there is a statement to the effect that since Starr failed to get the Clintons on financial grounds, the only way they could get him would be through his weakness for women.

And . . . didn't Lewinsky work at the Pentagon?

Who sent her?

[WoodrowFan]

27. Lewinsky

no, she didn't work for the Pentagon, that was that bitch that turned her in, Linda Tripp. Lewinski was an intern, i.e., a volunteer. Normally they don't even get close to the oval office, but since the government was shut down for a few days, Lewinski and a few other interns were being used to keep the office running.

[Jane Austin]

28. Thanks.

I thought she was a Pentagon intern.

Where'd she meet Tripp?

[WoodrowFan]

29. at the WH

Tripp was assigned to do something at the White House. I don't remember what.,

[ArkDem]

30. Sounds like the Marion Barry defense.

[TheSubliminableKid]

31. "Da bitch set me up!" Guess who just got deposed? JOHN FUND!!!

John Fund was finally deposed yesterday in the matter of Morgan Pillsbury v. John H. Fund.

Ms. Pillsbury had Fund arrested a couple years back for beating her up (see http://www.americanpolitics.com/20020223Fund.html).

Anyone heard any rumblings about the Fund depo? I hope it was taped. It could provide even more eye-opening than the Mackris tapes (I'm sure they must, um, er, exist, if you can take a, um, hint).

[Liberal_Dog]

34. That's Pretty Predictable

Freepers believe that no conservative could ever do anything wrong.

[DavidFL]

36. I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before...

but this morning, O'Reilly's lawyer was all over the morning "news" shows claiming this woman was "extorting" him. My first question was why didn't O'Reilly go to the police then? Why didn't his lawyer? If someone I knew was trying to extort money from me I know I'd be going to the nearest police precinct to make a report. Or is there a reason that O'Reilly and his lawyer never did this? It seems to me a possible criminal prosecution would carry more leverage with an alleged extortionist than trying to prosecute a civil claim of extortion against them.

That said, I really wasn't suprised when I heard this suit come out because even though I'm not old agewise, I've known enough people to know that the biggest bloviators about morality and behavior are the ones who are the biggest freaks once they close their bedroom doors.

[NewJeffCT]

37. My guess

My guess is if somebody asks that question of O'Lielly's attorney, he will say that they did not want to go through the public spectacle that a case like this would cause. Just a guess.

Again, just playing devil's advocate here.

My Freeper co-worker isn't going to believe anything short of audio or video tape, and then still might claim the tapes were doctored if O'Reilly says that they were.

[King Coal]

38. What really makes me laugh is that he claimed

it was all politics. LOL. So how does "Fair and Balanced" play into that? I'm lovin' this story.

[Radio-Active]

39. Best outcome of this scandal:

I guess Kerry won't be appearing on O'Reilly's show after all.

[eauclaireliberal]

Freeper co-worker thinks O'Reilly was set up

He probably thinks that if you flap your arms really fast and furious, you can fly to the moon.
