Ted Kennedy and the amazing gall of Bill O'Reilly

Bill O’Reilly began The O’Reilly Factor last night with one of his “Talking Points Memo”s, this one about the death of Ted Kennedy. Read the full post.

    Why do they report on this show? Because it’s certainly more “entertainment” than news or current events. Billy boy there is the laughable, frog-mouthed ringmaster of a garish, three-ringed circus where only clowns and elephants dance around and jump through hoops, with no real lions to be found. Meanwhile, the audience gets fed the usual garbage: cotton candy and pretzel-twisted rhetoric containing no nutritional value whatsoever. And, like any circus, no matter how much you find it fun or scary (because clowns and Billy Boy are, indeed, garish and scary), still has that noticeable pong of crap in the air.
    I consider the simile valid, even the bit where you can dress a clown like a fireman, but that bucket’s gonna be full of confetti.

    George W. Bush was a murderer and an evil person who stood for things that would ruin this country.

    • Chris

      This guy above me is a nut job. Then John Kerry, Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton and 26 other democratic senators are murderers too because they voted to authorize the Iraq war. Go eat shorts.

      • Bob from District 9

        Nobody voted to authorize the Gulf War. Reread the resolution. It authorized action only *IF* Saddam did not comply. So Saddam complied, the resolution was moot, and Bush invaded anyway.

      • Chris

        How did Saddam comply? I’m sorry, I forgot that you must have been there when he overtly refused to comply with the various UN Resolutions that were put in place after the first Gulf War. I forgot that you were there when Saddam (while we now know there was no WMD’s, but at the time every major western power had the same intelligence, the intelligence that Clinton, Biden, and Kerry all trusted, along with Bush and Cheney) continued to let the world believe that he had WMD’s. I forgot that you were there in the west wing after September 11th, and you knew what it felt like to be in charge of the country during that time, and you must have known that you would never let anything like that happen again on your watch, even if it meant going into Iraq after suspected WMD’s because Saddam Hussein had the connections and the motives to pass them along to mobile terrorists. Wait, you didn’t know all that, because you were posting your political views on an ENTERTAINMENT WEBSITE. Stick to the huffington post you damn commy!

        Chris…I think you need to lay off the caffeine. Go hug your guns in whatever cave you have prepared for when the communist takeover occurs. You clearly have some obsessive tendencies if you feel the need to reply to practically every single post here. I think you need to go back to pasting Hitler mustaches to Obama pictures.

        You can’t attack someone for posting political views and then post your own. Have a nice life living in paranoid fear of everything.

      • Chris

        Not this time Ken. I won’t let you have the last word. Actually I’m pretty scared of guns, I’ll just stick to my federalist papers once the communists come, thank you very much. I need to preach knowledge because YOU KEN, have decided to spread your liberal word on this site and let these uniformed people (because let’s be honest, the informed people get their political news from actual news sites, these people are curious about the Jonas Brothers), take what you say as truths. And let’s be fair, Bush was likened to Hitler first, but once Obama started to become linked to hitler, every republican became a racist. I’m sick of the double standards in this country and as far as I am concerned you are only furthering them with your meaningless dribble, which is why I have called you out KEN TUCKER, or Q or Bob from Distric 9 or how many other fake screen names you have on here to make it seem like people care about your blog posts. I will have a nice life. Thank you for ending on a pleasant note at least. You have a nice life too!

        Better yet Chris suck my D!

      • Chris

        No thanks. You seem like a mature individual though…for being a 46 year old with glasses Ken.

  • qpause

    i’m a democrat and i never liked Kennedy since that incident in 1969 all he cared about was his political life not the life of that young woman. In fact i wish all the Kennedys would go away i hate so rich self serving peoople

    • Chris

      Agreed.

    • Bob from District 9

      Agreed.

  • o’reilly

    We’ll do it live!!!

    • Chris

      F’n thing sucks!

  • shelsby

    Beck and O’Reilly doing comedy? I thought Fox was a news network. Who do they think they are–Stewart and Colbert?! They can’t come back from vacation soon enough!

  • Bill Britton

    If Kennedy was truly a man for and of the people, I’m surprised the dems are using him to push the health care bill when the majority of the people are asgainst it!!!

    • Maggie

      No, polls show that people want health care reform. What the polls show is that people say they are against things they have heard about the health care bill that are actually not true. People are opposed to taking away private health insurance, rationing or refusing care to seniors, “death panels”, giving health isurance to illegal aliens. All those things aren’t real, but the likes of Rush, O’Reilly and Palin have convinced people they are true, and people are against them. But when they ask people about whether they support things that are actually real about health care reform, they are in favor.

  • edda

    Wow Chris you have some real anger issues you might want to lay off Glenn Beck while you get back control of your emotions.

  • suds1967

    Compared to Limbaugh O’Reilly gave Kennedy a memorable eulogy.

    Limbaugh hasn’t let up on Kennedy (talk about one who can’t defend himself) for 2 days.

    Don’t these super-egos realize they defeat their own cause with outlandish claims and with a chronic inability to acknowledge favorably the opposition?

  • JERSEY JEFF

    This is all very interesting (not), but why did they take LIFE off the air?!

    • Maggie

      I think Rush said that it’s Ted Kennedy’s fault.

  • ROBERTUPHOLD

    Obama wants to edit the medea, for his own personal gains. With so many people being involved in all of Obama’s schemes to gain control of are nation.It is truly a wonder that no one has come forward yet to speak out against the injustice set forth be the Obama party.
    Has America lost it voice? Are we all afraid of what had been only a few months ago a junior senator? Or do we just despite all we have learn choose to ignore what we know to be the truth.
    I think we all get the picture now that there is some corruption in are government and an outcry for justice it’s out there some were in the wilderness. It’s ecoeing voice directed at Washington. The sleeping giant is beginning to roar. It’s angry teeth are being sharpened as we speak. The leadership in Washington is about to be outed.
    I am not much of a writer. I hope you will read this email on your show.

  • Russ

    Yeah…..let’s do to the health care bill for Teddy what Teddy did to Mary Jo Kopechne!

  • ElizabethMC

    O’Reilly has done more for children’s protection rights than anyone. Do your research.

  • cancun, vacacciones cancun

    I have been exploring for a bit for any high quality articles or blog posts on this sort of area . Exploring in Yahoo I ultimately stumbled upon this website. Studying this information So i am satisfied to show that I have a very just right uncanny feeling I discovered just what I needed. I such a lot definitely will make certain to do not put out of your mind this site and give it a glance regularly.
