Bill O'Reilly Continues His Whining Over Letterman

[sugapablo]

Bill O'Reilly, (a.k.a. "that ass") after being put in his place by of all people David Letterman, felt a terrible need to defend himself after the Late Show episode he appeared on.

On his radio show and his TV show, he continued to argue his side of the point, like a school boy, beaten bloody in a fight in the yard, trying to explain to his classmates how "he didn't hurt me".

Pathetic!

1. O'Lielly: Nanny, nanny, boo, boo.

Oh brother! What a turd he is!

2. Welcome to the DU sugapablo...

:hi:


(Just a friendly thought; do some digging & get better links.)

3. Christmas is over...

... and O'Really needs something new to whine about. No surprise there. If it weren't for the extreme lack of communists around, O'Really might become the next incarnation of McCarthy.

[HawkerHurricane]

7. Funny...

Lack of real communists didn't stop McCarthy...

[punpirate]

11. Good point...

... any enemy will do.

[HawkerHurricane]

17. Better point...

creating a enemy WHERE NONE EXISTS is typical of Reactionaries like O'Rielly and McCarthy.

[Swamp Rat]

18. You got that right!

[wtmusic]

27. Wow Swamp--you nailed the blotchy skin!

Nice work :thumbsup:

[punpirate]

25. Yeah, that, too...

... is appropriate. I've done so much research into that business that my head is swimming with it all. :) Here's just one instance of that: http://www.thebulletin.org/print.php?art_ofn=apr93cahn

What Anne Hessing Cahn outlines in the link above is just a variation on a theme which has been promoted by the right wing ever since the advent of the Committee on the Present Danger in 1949-50.

Cheers.

24. It's like the guy is actually trying to BECOME McCarthy. Even looks like

him, a little.

[punpirate]

26. Yeah, he's got that...

... jowly, dissipated alcoholic look to him, doesn't he?

[KharmaTrain]

4. Congrats To DU'ers...No One Really Bit On This One

Yeah...I admit it...I tuned in to see what O'Blowhard was going to say about his bitchslapping on Letterman. I wasn't disappointed. He whined and moaned how Letterman "never watched the show" and how poor Bill is so misunderstood and how he (using his "we" and "us" identifiers) was a "traditionalist" while Letterman didn't respect him or his right to free speech.

As I predicted, Letterman hasn't said boo about this thing...he got his amusement with O'Reilly and has moved along. Eagles don't fly with turkeys.

Now I hope O'Reilly picks a fight with Olbermann...and I'm sure Keith does as well.

10. Eagles don't fly with turkeys . . .

Eagles snatch turkeys and thin the herd (gaggle?) . . .

14. O'Really isn't that entertaining.

If he were, Dave would have an ongoing segment on his show devoted to him. Kind of a "Will He Float" thing.

[FreedomAngel82]

22. Like he supports free speech for Cindy Sheehan?

I thought so.

[pamela]

5. Did Letterman mention it last night?

I meant to watch it but I fell asleep. I've been wondering if he said anything about it.

23. You can see the video at

[ComerPerro]

6. Yeah, I caught part of the radio factor on the way home from work

and he was not only bitching and whining about Letterman, but got very angry at callers (angrier than normal) and completely flipped out when one caller reminded him that US Soldiers have killed innocent Iraqis.

At one point, Bill spouted out something like "We're not the ones just randomly killing innocent Iraqis. We aren't the ones setting off the carbombs! Its not like we're just bombing them and killing indiscriminately!"

Uhh... Bill... Remember shock and awe? We were bombing. A lot. And chances are we killed a lot of innocent people.

8. Anyone have a link to the video clip?

Seems to have disappeared from http://www.cbs.com/latenight/lateshow/#

12. So what DID O'Reilly say?

How about some sound bites?

[0007]

13. I love John Stewart, but I wish he could have been a little more

like David Letterman with O'Reilly.

This was the best I've seen in a long while. Of course Al Franken did hand O'Reilly his ass, but there was a way that Letterman put Billy O'Reilly down that was indeed amusing.

[Loonman]

15. What a big crybaby wussie

Bullies usually are.

[goodboy]

16. digging his grave with his tongue as usual,

welcome to DU.

[SammyBlue]

19. It's called saving face. Billy Boy needs to stay in his bubble.

When the prick comes out, he gets dicked!

[FreedomAngel82]

20. And here I thought he was macho

:eyes: What a loser.

[FreedomAngel82]

21. Oh and hi suga!
