Guess which one C&L agrees with?

First up on Billo's 'attack the far-left list' Monday night was the Seattle Post Intelligencer. See, back in Aug the FBI asked the Seattle media to run a photo of two men who looked "like they could be Middle Eastern. Or Latino. Or Italian. Or any of several other nationalities/ethnicities" that the Feds said had "been seen on several ferries and seemed "overly interested in the workings and layout."" So only after thoughtfully weighing the need for ferry security against the men's civil liberties and privacy the SPI editor chose to run "a story about the FBI's alert," but he chose not to publish the photographs, and Billo's been attacking him repeatedly on his show ever since.

So last week when one of the Seattle PI columnists wrote that she could understand how a disturbed young man could see "the church as an oppressive institution" Billo really got his loofah in a bunch, and just like he has done so many times before, he sent his flunkies out to ambush the editor at his home to ask him about it. Unfortunately the SPI editor must not really be from the "far left" or else surely he would have known KO's 3 magic words to use should anyone ever find O'Reilly's goons in their face with a camera: Malmedy, Mackris, and loofah.

Apparently the ambush wasn't enough to satisfy Billo, so he then set his sights on Mark Cuban for financing the new movie "Redacted" for its depiction of atrocities committed by some of our soldiers in Iraq, and Cuban had a few choice words to say about it. Note to Billo, this film is not going to incite any more anti-American hatred than the actual criminal actions of a few bad soldiers already did, and nothing could be more anti-American than pretending to report the news and acting like that never happened, and attacking those who won't. Sweeping the horrors of war under the rug is not the supporting the troops. A public that better understands those horrors is what a democracy needs so that it never unnecessarily sends our soldiers into war in the first place.

If you notice in the screencap, BillO is already referring to him as "Mr. Bush".

Prepping for a post-White House apologist strategy is fail, you feckless mouthpiece.

When you look 'empty headed moron' up in the dictionary there's a picture of b'orly.

Well said, billw!

bill o'really wears holy underwear?

lol, I love Mark Cuban. Why can't he own my favorite sports teams?

Here in Texas we're tired of Cuban, but simply abhor Jerry Jones.

Bill's just mad because Mark Cuban is a billionaire 9-11 truther. Something happened back in May that caught Bill's attention. Go research.

Did you know your car can be searched WITHOUT CAUSE if you are waiting for a ferry? In Washington State? Even though the ferry system is part of the state highway system. So it's as if you are on a state highway, driving along, and a fed or a highway patrolman just pulls you over even though everything on your car works, you're wearing your seatbelt, not exceeding the speed limit (And not DWB) and have a thorough shufti through your vehicle.

So if you don't have a bomb, but you have pot-well ask Dionne Warwick how that shit works.

Thank you, Patriot Act. For abrogating my right to privacy in my own car. While waiting for a ferry in Seattle and environs.

People should go to the Maverick games with signs that say "Bill is a moron".

Wait so that weird editorial about hate of Religion was really written?

I said the same thing billw, that any hatred for the movie is mis-placed. It should be for the soldiers' actions. This terrible event is a perfect example of why we need bring the soldiers home and END the War on Terror.

"Truth is anti-American"
I've been thinking that ever since John Kennedy was murdered. What else is new?

lmao! I luv that idea. :)

I knew the rabid right would start demanding that war dissenters (and in the loon O'Reilly's case, O'Reilly dissenters) be prosecuted (or just short of this) for endangering the country.

These people have gone over the edge folks. We have to keep them from taking the country with them...if it is not too late already.

Mr. Bush! That's no way to talk about the Emperor.

If he really wanted to get Cuban's goat, he'd simply mention the Golden State Warriors and be done with it. By the way, Dallasites are not "tired of Cuban" or "Abhor Jerry Jones". In fact, most people here love Cuban turning the Mavs into a perennial winner, and the Cowboys are 8-1.

olbermann to the rescue!

billy's has spoken out about so many topics. where ever he felt he could do the most good, he has spoken out. you may agree with him. you may disagree with him. he has spoken out.

but he has never spoken out about sexual harassment.

why?

Time to review Keith Olberman's workshop for how to respond to OLiely ambushes: "falafel, falafel, falafel." I wish BO hated me enough to send out the goon squad, I'd love to ask how proper it is for a sex criminal to advertise his books on promoting the values of children. Yeah, I'll bet he wouldn't see a movie about a 14 year....oh never mind, he's just too gross to even pander to.

Seriously does anybody still buy into Bill-O's bullshit anymore?

I'll hold up a sign that says "I support the troops...except the one's that rape and torture young girls".
Bill takes everything way out of context. So WHAT the Seattle Post didn't want to publish the photo. Good for them! Why varnish someones reputation, invade their privacy just because you're intiminated by their presense. Who reported them as "acting suspicious" anyway? Heck, some may say I'm "acting suspicious" when I'm walking around Nemius and Marcus gawking at the cashmere sweaters, simply due to the fact that I'm poor and brown!

O’Reilly: Truth is Anti-American

Wouldn't it be great if these reichwing hate/fear/warmongers were renditioned in the dark of night and never seen or heard from again? And besides....if anyone should be prosecuted...besides the preznitt on down...it should be O'liely and other like him. They are the ones who, through frothy and fiery rhetoric, whipped the ignorant sheep (Faux News watchers, and those who voted republican in 04) into a blood and oilthirsty frenzy.
I think they should be getting nervous. If the shit hits the fan, and there is a revolt, those bastards better run and hide! There will be large, angry mobs looking to run roughshod over the lot of 'em!

Pile O Vile (aka Billo) needs his home and family hounded by everyone.

Everybody loves a winning team, but people are getting tired of their grandstanding. Jones in particular is making himself wealthy out of Arlington taxpayers, and the eminent domain land grab of affordable property there has got even Cowboy fans put off at least somewhat.

"No American should support an enterprise that incites hatred against America"

My question to Billo:

"Why then do you support the Iraq war, which is THE enterprise that incites hatred against America on the first place"???

What a moron, really...

Get em KO.

drudge reports in big bold letters headlining his blog:

WOLF WARNED: NO GANGING UP ON HILLARY IN VEGAS!

Wolf just said it is a lie!

drudge just gave the Clintons a huge victory because all the smears will not be credible.

Didn't the musical combo, The Exploited, have a song called, Bill is a Wanker?

Without having viewed "Redacted" Bill O tells us we are disloyal Americans if we choose to see it. If we didn't support invading Iraq we were disloyal Americans. If we asset that a woman has sovereignty over her own body we are criminals. If we don't go watch a basketball game carrying a sign that Bill O has instructed us to carry we are disloyal Americans.

War is not just about "supporting the troops." If it was Japan and Germany would have destroyed us in the 1940s. They had cheerleading sections to die for.

Y'know, I always wonder about the text next to Billy when he spouts....kinda reminds me of a kindergarten show, trying to teach little children to read or something. What conclusions can I draw about his viewers?

Mark @ 22:

Billo's TV ratings quadruple the closest competitor. So the answer to that question is a YES.

wait - a movie about american soldiers raping and killing local iraqis is going to create hatred towards americans? Haven't the last few years of the war already done that? wouldn't that make the movie redundant?

Bill is in the back if the garbage truck being hauled away but he's still yelling, Look how important I am.

How the hell did the FBI lose these two guys? Who took their photograph? WTF? Give me a break, asking the public and the media to do the FBI's job.

LOL! Thanks for making my day.

The other thing which would lower his ratings is for hearing aids to be checked and eyeglass prescriptions re-updated.

BILLY, Unfortunely a few of our troops pleaded guilty to raping and murdering iraqis civilians. Cuban is NOT painting a broad brush. Any intelligent person can see it's just a sad story that happens in illegal conflicts. You are an ignorant asshole!

one good reason to understand the 'horrors' is that these people will be coming home having killed, wounded and/or tortured hundreds of thousands of Iraqis while under orders serving our rulers. the mindset required for those things will require some adjustment to 'normal', i.e. post-wartime, life.

I have a couple of people in my life who served in Nam and they returned as different people from when they left. Thye did not return as 'bad' people, but for months after their return it was very important not to provoke them in any way for fear of life and limb. It's no joke. Adjustment on their part and ours is necessary.

Reid @ 12:

Very well said. Using the military against a scruffy band of terrorists is like an elephant trying to stomp on a flea. After the attacks on Madrid and the London bombings, both the Spanish and British governments used police work and intelligence to pursue leads in who caused the attacks and bombings in those cities. The Democrats, as expected, continue to shoot themselves in the foot by not pointing out how ludicrous it is to use such overkill as the military when using the resources of the police and intelligence agencies would be the far more intelligent and wise thing to do. The tragedy is that the more our politicians allow this unnecessary use of force to continue, the more it increases the chance that more soldiers will return to this country killed and maimed and crippled and disfigured and dismembered, all for no justifiable reason whatsoever.

There goes a couple of hundred viewers.

Too bad Bildo O'Lielly didn't mention Mark Cuban's work and donations to fallen soldiers' families.

FLASH: Billo condemns the Bush Administration!

No loyal American should support an enterprise that incites hatred against America.

And there's nothing quite like an unjustified war which kills hundreds of thousands of people in another part of the world to incite hatred against America, is there?

Good start, Billo.

Hmmm... I go with O'Reilly is a moron.

Why don't those people who Billy sends his hit squad out to confront (that editor) have those assholes arrested for tresspassing? Boy I'd love to have one of them come on my property. I live in Texas. We're allowed to shoot people if we feel threatened.

Oh, and by the way, not a big fan of Jones but love the Cowboys. AND Mark Cuban might be my new hero.

Where did I say anything about Arlington taxpayers? I said Dallasites. Arlington residents get what they deserve.

You know....BillO is looking a lot like a terrorist type to me. Has that crazed look about him. Beady and shifty eyes, too. He's probably got a suicide vest on this very moment. And isn't he the falafel king? I sure hope that FBI and the NSA and Blackwater are keeping an eye on him, because all of his so-called patriotic noise making strikes me as being a huge case of "BillO doth protest too loudly".

BillO, I got my eye on you, you America-hating terrorist.

I responded to my own post acknowledging that I had discovered the answer to my question.

SPI should run a front page alert picture of O'Reilly, with the caption:

'This apparently drug-crazed, psychotically-disturbed, possibly IRA-connected terrorist, has been seen loitering about various media outlets and public rest room facilities, and should be considered dangerous. If spotted, do not approach, keep a safe distance and call 911 as soon as possible'.

Bill O. syas he'd never sit through a vile movie about a 14 year old getting raped????? Isn't this the same clown who said that 14 year kid who was kidnapped, almost murdered, and repeatedly raped must have been having fun or he would have left??!!! Someone needs to ambush that ass hole at his home with a camera and ask him to explain himself.

Anybody want to bet that Cuban does a "Support Our Troops" night and donates a portion of the proceeds to veterans?

IB222 @ 51:

It is simply republican talking point 101: Use red herring arguments whenever possible.

Sadly it works remarkably well in this country, or at least with the significant portion of morons who buy FOX's drivel.

I think Bill O'Reilly's show incites hatred for America. Heck, I think the whole Fox network incites hatred for America. Let's picket outside their headquarters that THEIR portrayal of Americans' attitudes is generating international terrorism against us, thus increasing the threat of a terrorist attack on U.S. soil. So if they were as patriotic as they claim, they would stop with the arrogant a**-h*** routines and stop portraying the majority of American citizens as being on board with their brand of hatred and vitriole against anything that doesn't suck up to the Bush/Cheney administration. Have we had enough of this c**p yet?!.

Bill O'Reilly? Sounds like a foreign name to me. Irish perhaps. Probably Catholic too. If so, that makes him an Irish Republican Army terrorist sympathizer, doesn't it? Un-American traitorous terrorist-sympathizing bastard! Bill O'Reilly, you're now officially ON NOTICE!!!

Can we trade Donald Sterling (owner of the Clippers) for Cuban?

Billo's ratings only prove one thing, that is demographic consists of the people who get home from work and turn on the tv for the next 5 hours before going to bed. While us "liberals" are busy on the net searching for our own truth, engaged in some sort of hobby other then sitting on your ass in front of the boob tube, cooking, hiking, drinking, smoking pot, listening to music, reading books, or having sex, there is Billo's faithful afterwork couch potatoes, ready to be spoon fed their opinions in easy to digest sound bites and anger feeding rantings. So of the people that can't find something better to do then get their opinions and entertainment from TV, Billo takes the cake. He can have it, cause if war comes to us, these lazy couch potatoes are as good as dead. Hey maybe that says something about why they are so scared, they know they couldn't jog a block if their life depended on it.

This old fart is so full of hate, rage and frustration...it's all he can do to get his jollies by using his propaganda network to spew hatred and anger at anyone willing to disagree with him or point out his lunacy.

bor is beyond worthless. At least shit you can recycle. He's absolutely scum!

This site is to hard on Oilroly after all he is a moron and that should be taken into account before you comment on his stupidity.
As for being a sexual pervert and a criminal he has never been convicted of those crimes paying a settlement does not mean that he did anything wrong it just means that if he did not do anything wrong he is a moron. Since that has already been established it is not fair to judge him.

Bloviating Billo certainly is strident these days. Wonder what's really got his nasty tighty whities all in a twist...

I hadn't even heard of Redacted. Thanks Bill, I can't wait to see it. I'll wear my "Bring the Troops Home" shirt when I do. Bill O'Reilly - Traitor American Bitch.

All you America haters should read my book "The Factor for Kids" In it I talk about Shawn Hornbeck (http://mediamatters.org/items/200701170009) and other kids like this so called kid an "Iraqi 14 year old that was raped and murdered" she was probably enjoying it a bit too much just like Andrea Makris....you can't talk to ME!

I'm far more disturbed that more people watch Nancy "ZOMG, screw the brown people dying -- where is that one white girl??!!11" Grace than Keith.

Yes Bill-no one should incite hatred against Americans.
As an example,no one should ever use his platform to characterize all people against the "war" in Iraq as "far left" "loons".No one should ever impugn-on a daily basis-the patriotism of his fellow Americans simply because of their "far left" politics.

Billo the sack of shit, really got his work cut out for him, defending the fucking indefensible, and trying to wear the flag while doing it.

It is sick, sick, sick, sick, sick.........

Looking forward to his trial in the coming years, the last time around in Nuremberg his kind of reporters were hung by their neck like the rats they had proved to be.

Truth is certainly against his America, not anyone else.

This moron only talks about hate, love, and emotions, evidently sense, logic, and reason do not come into a failed enterprise costing one trillion and six hundreds of billions while killing many Americans, and committing genocide in Iraq.

Bill's a rapist himself so i'm not surprised he's defending other fellow rapists.
He is a shitstain and embarrases humanity every time he opens his mouth.
it's amazing that he can even speak with Bush's dick down his throat and balls glued to his chin.

Billo seems to be outraged that Mark Cuban financed a film that denigrates the military. If I enjoyed the propaganda skills of Leni Riefenstahl I would make a video of Mark Cuban doing the mambo; then slowly transition to footage of a soldier getting his head blown off in Baghdad.

Hey Chickenhawk Bill,

When my liberal brother was in Nam '67, '68, right in the middle of the Tet Offensive,why weren't you supporting the troops by being there? I'm sure it was much easier to remain state side with all your TV and talk radio chickens#*t minions.

And I'm even more sure that this new idea of yours will be as effective as your boycott of France.

I dont understand. How does the movie PORTRAY Americans doing these heinous things? Are they faking footage? The only ones portraying these actions are the people actually engaging in said actions.

Yea, like hatred of Bill Clinton never " set in".
