Bill O'Reilly believes that if Kerry had responded early to the SBVT ads, the issue would have gone away within a week.
Somehow, I don't think you Swiftees would agree!

Ignore O'Reilly...he has lost a lot of us with his constant defending of Kerry...O'Reilly has not read the book, nor has he really bothered to look at all of the issues. O'Reilly won't touch the issue or thinks what happened in Vietnam is irrelevant...because he himself would not serve..so he is hoping it will go away. _________________ Born to raise a little hell! |

Bill O'Reilly does not give any thought to the internet, the fisking of all the lies and spin that essentially started to shame the major newspapers into covering the story. And then of course the drop in poll numbers--the real reason the newspapers and Kerry attacked. Everyone lauded Dean as some great internet campaigner. I'd say the Swift Boat Vets have done as good or better with donations in less time considering the opposition.
From what I saw the other day on O'Reilly, if it's not in Kerry's medal citation Bill won't pay it any mind, because if it's on paper it must be true. Never mind that that paper was created based on eyewitness testimony--testimony that is now being refuted by a numerically superior group of eyewitnesses! *climbs down from rant box* He just wants the Kerry interview. Just like he had to temper his criticism of Alec Baldwin--and even defend him at one point--to get that interview. And he'll do the same thing and praise Bush just to get that interview too. I'm steadily losing respect for him. |

I believe that if John F. Kennedy hadn't been assassinated, Richard Nixon would never have been elected President.
Guess what? Neither belief is relevant to history, or the present.

Bill lost my respect quite a few weeks ago...and until he apologizes to the swiftvets after they take Kerry down then, just maybe, then I will return. _________________ Born to raise a little hell! |

O'Reilly has his master's degrees and was a teacher. His basic philosophy was founded based on anti-war pro kerry sentiments.
He will go down with kerry.
Hannity will get his own show, post re-election. _________________ said Democratic Chairman Terry McAuliffe. "It is inexcusable to mock service and sacrifice."
well, when even the DNC can see it,,,,, then kerry is toast. |

He was talking today on his radio show about how "Rassman was the key factor" in this story - how could you question him, and on and on...
I wrote back to him and said,
"Rassman the key factor? Are you kidding?
Do you know how many different versions of the Rassman story have been told?
He has told TWO stories just about how he happened to drop into the Kerry campaign!
I think your glowing remarks on the dust jacket of "Tour of Duty" tell us a lot more about what the "key factor" is in your position than anything else.
You're not looking out for the folks, any more, Bill.
But, the Swifts are!" _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~

Oreilly is multitalented, everyone knows he's a blowhard, but as you have pointed out producehawk, he also sucks.
I have come down real hard on Oreilly over the swiftvets issue, he has likely permanently lost a big fan. I used to defend Oreilly against the railings of my lib co workers and they would all think I was a chump for doing it. But I kept at it because I thought, for the most part, he deserved defending.
I am kinda feeling like a chump now. _________________ "And no pair has been more wrong, more loudly, more often, than the two Senators from Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy and John Kerry"

I enjoy listening to Bill O'Reilly, but definitely not when it has come to this issue.
I will still listen to him, but he has lost some credibility with me.
He didn't need to have any of the SBVFT on his show as he already made up his mind and negated anything they had to say.
For someone who is supposed to be in the know, he really is out to lunch on this one.
I guess the "No Spin Zone" is stuck on the "Kerry Cycle". |

I find Bill O'Reilly intolerable. He isn't intelligent enough to be as egotistical as he behaves. He blares out hot-headed opinions and rarely has his facts straight. O'Reilly runs on high-octane-egotism. He is factually bankrupt. Just a blowhard. Not funny or even entertaining any more. Fox needs to dump him. _________________ Nomorelies Make a donation HERE |

Bingo! You hit the nail on the head...O'Reilly has gotten too big for himself. OOH-YAH to all the SwiftVets....You are doing the right thing getting the truth out for all to look see...even those who don't like it. _________________ Cali-HeyGirl....proud to be a CWO5 Navy wife! |

Oh, I have no illusions that he'll even see it, Scott.
If he does, I hope it DOES leave a mark. I've bought every single one of his books and a premium membership, and I no longer have the feeling that he's concerned about anything more than ratings.
But maybe one of his staffers will see it and put a tick mark in the "going in the wrong direction" column for the Swifts tally board. _________________ ~ Echo Juliet ~
