1. This dude is in serious trouble re his analytical and deduction prowness
OReally has crossed the line many months ago, years even, but this clip confirms the worst of the GOPs efforts to brainwash our society....

They have UPPED the ANTE...but too late...weak hand bluffing with little chips(Bush had overspent his Political Capital) they continue the charade of being viable...

Bill the Pill is a poor choice for the Pubs to use...he preaches to the choir and hardly beyond that...too risky for the GOP to continue his use....counter productive actually...

3. Uh, no, Bill0. This country is not in deep trouble
just because someone who routinely called your lying ass out was elected to the Senate.

Can't even his most stupid viewers see what a paranoid narcissist this guy is?

15. I'm still trying to figure out
how something he wrote proves something he said. Aren't we back where we started from?

8. If only he'd starred in...
"Bedtime for Bonzo", then he'd have been qualified for public office.

11. If only he'd starred in...
If only Frankin were a shining example like Tom Delay or Michell Bachman, or Strom Thurman or Jesse Helms, or McCarthy. Our country isn't and wasn't in trouble with these fine examples of people qualified to hold office!

10. Of course the lies just keep spewing forth from Billo the clown.
He's gonna make it a nightly project to lie about Al Franken. His boss probably wrote the copy weeks in advance.

12. His "proof" has been completely debunked.
From MMA (of course):

http://mediamatters.org/research/200609220010

Page 96: O'Reilly falsely attacks Al Franken:

As Franken began speaking, I simply couldn't believe it. The guy told the audience that I was a pathological liar and had even lied about where I grew up. His presentation was based on a passage in his book. ... But far worse than Franken's deliberate lie about my upbringing was his reference to my mother. She has, tragically, been suffering from dementia for years and for that reason has round-the-clock supervision. Al Franken never talked with my mother or to anyone else who knows my background.

O'Reilly is referring to a passage from Franken's book, Lies and the Lying Liars Who Tell Them: A Fair and Balanced Look at the Right (Dutton, 2003), regarding O'Reilly's repeated claims that he grew up in Levittown, New York, a working-class Long Island town (Pages 73-74, hardcover). Franken, however, was not simply citing "a passage in his book." In Lies and the Lying Liars, Franken noted that O'Reilly's mother was cited in the Washington Post in December 2000 as saying that O'Reilly grew up in Westbury, New York -- a wealthier community a few miles away from Levittown. O'Reilly, in attacking Franken for making this claim without speaking to his mother, ignores the fact that Franken was citing a source that had, in fact, apparently spoken with O'Reilly's mother.

14. Okay, so
Franken questioned where he really grew up which made Bill0 really mad, and this is the reason the country is in "big trouble"?

The reason this country is in big trouble is because people like Bill O'Reilly are given huge platforms upon which to spew non-stop their lies and delusions.

13. Billo can't take Franken.
Franken is anything but the ineffectual loser or faux Dem that they favor on that network.

16. Did any one expect anything different?
O'Reilly offered nothing to support his case, other than to cite his own book. Since a FoxNews personality is intrinsically unreliable, I won't bother checking out what's there.

By the way, Billo, Rush Limbaugh really is a big, fat idiot. You, on the other hand, are a tall, skinny idiot.

17. Everyday's a sad day for me, when I have to see that Bill-O, Hannity, Beck, Limbaugh,
and Savage still have jobs.....

18. Let's see Bill-O Run...
He's from NY. You think he could beat Schumer or Clinton? I'd love to see him try! It would be fun to watch him self-destruct after getting crushed by a Dem!

19. So the "proof" is in his book
Well I'll just go get that book and check it out. But not before I pull all my toe nails off with my teeth first, then I'll go.
