O'Reilly wants to "burn down" Media Matters

[dancingme]

BillO was the guest on Philly's Michael Smerconish radio show this morning. When Smerconish asked about Media Matters, BillO said he wants to "go in there and burn down" the place.

He also said Al Frankin will never win the Senate seat.

1. He's just jealous because he couldn't even get elected to streetsweeper

2. Shaddup, Bill

The wonderful thing about such cowardly, incendiary remarks is that there's inevitably someone out there in the whacko world who will use O'Liely's words as inspiration.

3. Fascism R Us.

Blotch O Really goes tits up for the cabal without apology, doesn't he? His hatred and shitty rhetoric is the gasoline for the tempers of many pockets of curmudgeonly angry white guys all over the country.

4. Public threat of terrorist action, anyone?

Incitement to commit violence?


WHY THE BLOODY HELL IS O`REILLY NOT IN JAIL YET?

9. Yes, trying to get the podcast of today's show

10. My thoughts exactly

we know that the far right respond to calls of action that their fellow nut jobs like O'Lielly call out. When someone carries out one of these atrocities some of the right will say it was sad but there will also be a silent cheer that goes through the right-est fundy-est congregations.

11. IOKIYAR.

It's OK . . . If You're A Republican.

Being a Republican means you get carte blanche and never, ever EVER have to admit error or say you're sorry.

Republicans can threaten seated Democratic presidents (as Jesse Helms did with Bill Clinton) and not a slap on the wrist will be dealt.

Republicans can utter racial slurs on live news (Anne Coulter calling Helen Thomas an "old Arab") and still have a job.

Republicans can obliterate entire societies (no example needed.) for no other crime except being unfortunate enough to live on a substance America just can't seem to kick.

Republicans think nothing of shipping scores of jobs to foreign lands, displacing scores of workers here, and blaming workers for "not being prepared for the new economy". At the same time, they see nothing at all wrong with (and are the first to yelp "CLASS WARFARE!!" if you point it out) a CEO making 401 times what their average worker earns.

Because remember:

It's OK . . . if you're a republican.

14. So why don't our elected DEMs make an issue of it?

You have correctly identified the problem: violent terroristic threats regularly issued by RW media demagogues.

"Homeland Security" which operates to some degree under the auspices of a DEM controlled congress, colludes with the terrorists by ignoring the terroristic threats.


This phenomenon is recognized only in the blogosphere. So...where are our elected DEM representatives? It is their *responsibility* to see that Homeland Security is identifying and controlling sources of terrorism.

Regardless of its source and regardless of its target.

16. The Democrats, the "liberal" media... no one cares when neo-cons make terrorist threats

If a progressive commentator were to make identical comments, you can safely bet the farm that O`Lielly, Limpballs and the rest would be screaming LOUDLY to have that person dropped down an oubliette at Guantanamo.

[Smarmie Doofus]

17. Exactly. So where is congress? nt

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

5. And does he want to burn down the Met's dugout?

As I understood it, he was escorted out because he didn't have the right credentials--while Keith Olbermann was welcomed because HE is a sportscaster.....

[Hawaii Hiker]

6. To me, Bill O will ALWAYS be the bastard who

writes a book untitled "Culture Wars", this from a fuck up who had to settle a sexual harassment lawsuit in 2004!....Bill O is a loser, degenerate, & all around piece of garbage....

I wish people would ignore this ass completely, never watch his show...The only time I hear/see anything on him is on D.U. or on Countdown....

[ordinaryaveragegirl]

7. BillO just can't deal, can he?

It seems like everyone else already knows that he spews a bunch of lies...except for him. :eyes:

[BOSSHOG]

8. Media Matters and all their truth telling

its just horrible. Poor bill just shouldn't be subject to such an organization telling the truth day after day after day.

Great plug for Franken. Not too long ago limbaugh said Hillary Clinton would never run for the Senate.

[KharmaTrain]

12. I Hope David Brock Wrote Another Thank-You Letter To BillO

BillO goes after Franken for his "Lies and Lying Liars"...Franken wins in court, the book soars to the top of the best-sellers list.

BillO goes after Keith Olbermann who just does the obvious, exposes BillO for being the bullshit artist and hypocrite he is and the more BillO goes after him, the higher Keith's ratings rise....and gets BillO kicked out of Yankee Stadium.

He's gone after MoveOn...who just raised a wadload of campaign cash for the Maine senate race in less than 24 hours and is posed to make even bigger contributions next year.

Now he's doing David Brock a favor as every time he points out how "evil" MMFA is, the more people go over there and take a look for themselves. This also includes the beltway media elite who then end up making BillO look like a fool.

[Captain Hilts]

13. Can't says I blame him, they make him out to be a fool. Steph Miller shouldn't start her own car...

as she beats up O'Reilly every day.

[Atman]

15. And Glenn Becks' guests want to kill people...

Isn't it funny how when the RIGHT WING threaten to kill and commit acts of terror, it's always just HA HA HA, those liberals are too sensitive," but if a liberal so much as farts while mentioning a Republican, they call it a terrorist gas attack and want the offender removed from his job and sent to Gitmo?

[Swamp Rat]

18. I knew it! Bill O'Reilly is a member of Al-Qaeda!

Send O'Reilly to Guantanamo!

[Marr]

19. Well, I'd say that cinches it. Frankin's definitely going to win.

When Bill O'Reilly states a thing forcefully, you can bet he's 180 degrees wrong. Every time.

[Ishoutandscream2]

24. Yes, there should be joy in the Franken camp

I'd put my mortgage on Franken winning now. Billo would be a terrible handicapper.

[dancingme]

26. has he ever been correct about anything?

:think:

[Ganja Ninja]

20. They quote his blatherings back to him word for word and he ...

sounds like an asshole. That's what's got his panties in a knot.

[Faux pas]

21. Wouldn't that be considered a terrorist threat? Media Matters

needs to file a complaint.

[Nickster]

22. Ahh, just like Nixon wanting to burn down the Brookings Institute.

[Nikki Stone1]

27. Except Billy O's only got half a testicle.

:)

[BlooInBloo]

23. I would too, if I were BillO.

[Kerrytravelers]

25. Lil' Bill is just mad because he can't turn their mic off. Boo-hoo.
