For better or worse. O'Reilly may be leaning to our side...
..he's been bashing Bush a bit on his radio show lately and today said he is willing to give Kerry the "benefit of the benefit of the doubt."

OK, carry on.

1. I don't WANT O'Reilly on our side...

I want him to stay on the side that he has chosen and sucked up to and defended against all reason and common sense and I want him to go down flaming with them.

9. Screw him.....IMO
Edited on Tue May-18-04 04:15 PM by OneTwentyoFive
I could give a crap about that fucker. Oh wait...he's not a Repuke,he's an Independent. Yeah and I'm a GD Chinaman.

That ass PIMPED loud and hard for Bush's War. All of us were namby,pamby Commie Liberals that just sit around wringing our hands instead of kicking ass like Chimpboy. He didn't give a SHIT about the facts surrounding WMD,all he pimped for was the ratings game like the rest of them.

I could care less if that ass proclaimed tomorrow that he's now a Liberal. Fuck him.....

3. Not leaning to our side, reading the writing on the ratings wall.
The public seems hungery for something other than his Silly Spin Zone.

5. FOX Moderate

O'Reilly is what Fox calls a moderate. His job is to regail himself in the robes of "objectivity". The occasional barb at President Bush helps with that effect.

At the end of the day, O'Reilly will lash out against Kerry after he's "carefully weighed the evidence." After all, O'Reilly is the one who is "looking out for you."

I'm seriously not sure who has the bigger ego: Bill O'Reilly or George W Bush.

8. you may be right, but it has become more than an occasional barb
wingnuts are calling in pissed at what he's saying.

I'm not saying I'm a fan (far from it) but still, his tone is a little interesting...

13. Last night's spin zone
O'Reilly was interviewing Sy Hersch about his article, O'Reilly told him he had been used. Hersch laughed and shook his head and they cut away from him before he had a chance to respond. Then O'Reilly said Rumsfeld wasn't liked "there".

7. he also
"believes in global warming" and "is against the death penalty." those two things are what he claims make him a centrist and not a right wingnut (which he really is.) so now he can add a third thing, "i don't totally hate kerry."

11. No, just a hooker working the other side of the street
Blotchy just goes where the money is. Right now, there's money to be had in distancing himself from Bush. One phone call from Karl, or a blast fax from the RNC, and like a hooker dashing back to her pimp, Bill will be back looking out for the "little guys" in the White House.

12. Rat to sinking ship, "Write if you get work"
While I love to think of him piling on Chimpy, I don't want him on my side. Yech.

14. It's a feint. He's trying to buy credibility and "objectivity"
for a big propaganda push in the late summer/fall when it matters. Much the same reason gasoline prices are going up right now.

15. He's just a fair weather fan - want to be on the side of a winner
If Bush's numbers were to pick up, he'd be changing his tune.

20. I've heard Howard Stern's ratings are going through the roof
as he bashes Bush. That can't be ignored by a whore like O'Really. When your only ideology is how much money can fit in yer wallet, then its really no sweat to change horses midstream - Don't trust him - he swing with the polls.

21. Fuck O'Reichley. I DON'T want him.
It's alittle late for this Bushevik propgandists to come crying that he's really going to be "fair und balanzed" now.

As believable as Molotov coming and whispering to you that he's with you in the Resistance against Stalin and oh, could you share with him the names of your Cell Leaders?

Next you'll be asking me if I wish the aid of some ex-Nazis.
