1. Watching it right now on Channel 7 in Chicago.
He's already bloviating about Judeo-Christian philosophy. I don't know how much of it I can stand.

2. I am much more interested in how Oprah and the audience reacts
She is a known liberal, and from what I've seen, her audience tends towards the left.

Much more interesting would be seeing the raw, unedited videotape.

24. She's not that liberal.
Not when she helped der Gropenator get elected. I also didn't like her questioning of the Dixie Chicks.

If she doesn't smack down falafel boy, I'm done with her permanently.

I refuse to listen to that gasbag spew his garbage. :puke:

But would love to see the audience smack him down! :evilgrin:

4. To be quite honest, there's only been one self-proclaimed
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 09:24 AM by mohinoaklawnillinois
Faux News junkie that talked so far in the audience. She said that her daughter was the only one of her school friends that knew about "the Amish kids".

He's debating a white guy wearing a blue shirt right now about "freedom of speech" and O'Lielly is getting slammed big time. However a black man in the audience seems to be taking Billo's side.

It's getting interesting. Commercial break right now. Another RNC ad slamming Tammy Duckworth.

5. He's supposed to be on Letterman tonight too....
Edited on Fri Oct-27-06 09:37 AM by emdee
it has already been taped. Letterman talked about O'Reilly with disgust on last night's show.

My big question is: Did either of them bring up his sexual predator tapes?
He should NOT get away with being everyone else's moral judge while he has one of the worst woman-abusing potty mouths ever heard!

21. Tee hee. Apparently Dave calls him a bonehead to his face.
O'Shrilly's been whining to the media that Dave doesn't like him. :nopity:

6. To be really honest with you, I don't know how much more of
this I can stand watching. Whenever anyone in the audience gets up and tries to question Billo he goes off on them and dismisses them.

He's disgusting and I don't honestly know why Oprah is even doing this show.

See if you can sit through it, I'm finding it extremely difficult.

7. I hope she didn't cave under pressure....
he was constantly whining on his show that Oprah hadn't had him on but she has had liberal writers on. Someone asked him why he went on Letterman and his answer was to sell books.

11. Actually when Oprah opened the show, she asked him why he had
agreed to come on. His reply: I'll sell another 100,000 books. He's disgusting.

The last segment he was bloviating about the Gitmo detainees and how waterboarding works and after he was done the audience applauded what he said.

If the audience and the people who watch Oprah on a daily basis buy Billos BS about torturing people, I am really afraid for this country.

12. Did the audience receive a copy of the book?
Probably not - he wants every dime!

I'm going to watch but I'm sure that the clothespin on my nose will hurt badly. It will be on here around 4pm.

8. Don't watch. Let Oprahs ratings go in the toilet when she presents shit like this.
That will keep nut cases like him off the air.

10. Applause for torture?
Flipped the channel to peek in and hear Billo saying "dunking that guy to save 5,000 lives? I'm dunking all day long." ***APPLAUSE***

Oprah looked a bit shocked for a second at the audience reaction, smiled then broke for commercial.

9. Heh. Oprah after the show
I wonder if she's gonna work that gasbag over especially hard on her After the Show on Oxygen. :rofl:

I'd pay to see that. Oh, wait! I do!

Thanks, I'll look for it tonight when I get home.

13. Oh, one of his Christmas Soldiers is on
and she has a friend who is a "polar opposite" taking him to task...but the friend got cut off. Five more minutes and I'm done.

14. I saw a preview of this, Oprah was all over him like white on rice.
I think it must have been the same segment because I don't think Osama bin Reilly has ever been on Oprah before.

19. Yeah, it seems that some of the audience is finally getting
disgusted with his BS. But he's still not letting them ask their questions and being dismissive of anyone who doesn't agree with him.

I'll post again after the show is over. So far I'm not impressed with Oprah or the audience's reaction.

20. Maybe I'm reading it wrong, but Oprah seems to be holding
back. But now that it's over, I'm disappointed I missed a smackdown.

17. Know what would be cool?
It would be cool if Oprah's big giveaway looked like this:

"And we have a surprise for you, ladies. We're giving away Bill O'Reilly's internal organs!"

<Camera cuts to crowd rushing the stage and tearing BillO into little pieces>

23. Stephanie Miller said that the audience should get to throw Oprah's
Favorite Things at O'Reilly to show their displeasure! :rofl:

22. I'm sorry but that show was completely disappointing.
Oprah didn't or wouldn't stand up to Billo's BS especially about waterboarding or the ACLU.

The audience reaction to O'Lielly's diatribe about waterboarding sent a chill up my spine.

My God, what has this country become???

:cry: :cry: :cry:

25. I think his appearance will secure us the house wife/soccer mom vote
Seriously, did anyone catch the frightened look on Oprah's face as he goes on his tirades, yelling and screaming at people? He truly doesn't understand the format of daytime TV. I hope Oprah does a good job of associating slime like him with the assholes in office.
