O'Reilly: "I have more power than anybody other than the president"
"I have more power than anybody other than the president, in the sense that I can get things changed, quickly," he said. "I don't have to go through the legislative process; I don't have to do any of that. I can just bring it to the people, and say, look, this has gotta be dealt with."

2. The O'Loofa Dream
Boy, is this guy full of shit. The is the mentality of the average GOP millionaire. They are above everyone. The public is at their toes waiting for commands. After all, the little people don't know how to run things...

This kind of snarky entitlement needs to be smacked down hard. He needs to be ridiculed for those remarks.

4. The more they talk the less people like them...
he says he has all this power to get things done and the economy is in the crapper, so does this mean we have an ORealy economy?

26. In fairness...
...it produces so great a laugh that most people don't have mouths big enough to let it out safely, so for a few moments there it looked like the guffaws would make their own exit...

10. Reminds me of Stalin's reply when asked whether the Pope should
Edited on Tue Sep-20-11 01:15 AM by coalition_unwilling
be invited to the Yalta conference that would decide the fate of post-WW II Europe:

"How many divisions does the Pope command?"

Say what you will about him, Stalin had a kick-ass sense of humor :)

17. Maybe O'Riley is considering tossing his hat into the ring.
Don't forget, Reagan started out selling BORAX. True, O'Riley hasn't had any real-world political experience but in a post BUSH II era, why the hell should that make any difference? I mean, if they can put a chimpanzee in the White House and keep him there through eight of the arguably most dreadful years in American history, why not Billo?

19. I'm envisioning him drawing a face on his own dick, and then talking to it.
"Look, this has gotta be dealt with."


The guy kind of looks like a giant penis in a suit, anyway.
