Why would Bill O'Reilly ever try to smear Jesse Jackson? I mean...
By John Amato Thursday Jul 10, 2008 2:30pmWhy would BillO try to smear Jesse, aren't they old friends? I think not. As he admits, The Factor has attacked looked at him repeatedly---including investigating his finances, I mean they were only holding him accountable like they do Bush and Cheney, weren't they?

Bill: ...but we are not out to hurt the man in personal ways.
Yea, investigating his finances is soooo impersonal. You see that separates Bill from the vicious media. We lie about Conservatives and Republicans, nut he's a really a fair guy when it comes to liberals and Democrats. Okie Dokie.
Rachel Maddow does a segment on Bill's presentation of the Jackson/Obama comment. The part where he says he won't speculate on Jesse's motivations, but then almost immediately he does just that. Flippity-floppity
I seem to remember a time when Jesse Jackson quizzed Bill about his Sylvia's restaurant statements.
"What concerns me is that fear and ignorance, you know, lead to hatred and leads to violence, obviously. ... And so, to underestimate the civility of blacks was insulting to many people.


Jackson and O'Racist are one in the same. Both are fringe extremists who worship attention as much as themselves.
No kidding, nice going Jesse Jackson. What a dumbass..
The O Factor is just plain incoherent these days.
Was it ever thus?
Can someone asnwer this: If Bill writes the talking points memo, why does he always refer to it as "talking points memo thinks..." like those douches that refer to themselves in the 3rd person. I mean, if he writes it himself, isn't that another in the huge list of reasons he's such a douchebag? Of course, calling o'reilly a douchebag is redundant anyway.
He is the prince of the reptiles. At least in his own mind. He deserves respect, not.
The gov't should look into Jesse Jacksons extortionist tactics. The guy is a shyster(sp). And Bill O should just fuck off.
"...talked down to some blacks"
Wow. Could O'Reilly have said that in a more racist, dismissive way?
Bill O-F**king-Reilly should shut the f**k up and go get me some more motherf**ing iced tea.
"Yea, investigating his finances is soooo impersonal."
Pot. Kettle. ...
the spun zone.....what a nut.
Again O'Lielly and Faux Noise show their total ignorance, prejudice and stupidity.
The Crapture @ 8:
An he should fuckin make me a motherfuckin sandwich too!
Billo is a nation of whiners.
News are the new tabloids
Brad Pitt stops for coffee...
Barack Obama ate a pancake...
Is there an LC sex tape?
Is there a whitey tape?
Is L.Lohan lesbian, is Paris preggo and is Tom planning to convert every one to scientology?
Bill Clinton seen talking to a woman, McCains secret black love child and is Obama muslim?
Jessica's valentino outfit.....

Actually we're a nation of weiners
My preference to have a foot long
But it's more like a Vienna sausage.
I can't wait until bill o'lielly and rash limpballs have at each other.
rash just signed a few weeks ago a longterm multi-million dollar contract, supposedly one of the biggest for a radio talking pustule.

(There I fixed myself.)
I'll tell you why Faux News has made the "journalistic" decision not to air more of the Jackson "tapes":
Depending on how bad or embarrassing it is, it all collectively adds up to making Obama into a sympathetic character who's being attacked needlessly for stuff that nobody can really even articulate as making sense.
Now, ask yourself this question... why the hell would Fox ever participate in creating feelings of sympathy for a Democrat?
Also, has anybody brought up the possibility of Jackson paraphrasing someone else's attitude/opinion of Obama?
Watching the comments again, it's almost as if he's trying to describe someone else speaking and/or a conversation he had with someone where he heard the 'cut his nuts off' comment.
Just putting that out there.
Bill O'Reilly & Jesse Jackson. Two of the worst representatives of their respective races. They cancel each other out.
Water board him with his our urine and bile I say.
here's another rev. .....r.parsley

"… And so, to underestimate the civility of blacks was insulting to many people."
-AND ...to underestimate the civility of people is insulting to us all.
This is the irrelevant BULLSHIT that keeps us in our place.
Got any stories worth commenting on?
Oh, before I get banned - Here is my obligatory;
Orily is a jerk, he is so stupid he is dumb. And Jackson, well not that he is an angel but Bill is really dumb.
Hey with out little trashy talking pointed pieces like this I would have had no idea what Bill Oh said.
Hey I bet those who do watch him really get alot out of the infinite coverage he gets here!
Great job!
This is the kind of stuff we need to win back the world!!!
Onward to November!!!
Limpballs and O'Lielly have already had each other.
Golly Gee willakers the ACLU link is experiencing technical difficulties...
Could be they are overloaded with support...
Could be the government tracking software just can't keep up...
Could be the government tracking software has a little glitch in it....
I am sure they will get it all straitened out soon enough...
In reference to the statement, "I seem to remember a time when Jesse Jackson quizzed Bill about his Sylvia’s restaurant statements.":
I clicked on the link to the full transcript of that interview and it actually doesn't show anything bad about Bill (again, just in this instance). In fact, he takes a rather liberal stance on racism, commenting on how whites, in general, have a fear of blacks, and that it's a bad thing; they shouldn't. Now, wayyy down at the bottom, where he says that the very root of the problem it's black peoples' fault for not having fathers in the home, THAT'S racist. Maybe, that part should've been reference with that link. We really need to think about what we say before we start nit-picking irrelevant parts of things to twist into our own expectations. It just especially irritates me when we provide and lay out on a silver platter something for neocons to use against us. I try to be more critical of myself than others. I try not to give them ammunition.
theWalrus @ 19:
Very bright - But then again racism is always so enlightened...
Why? Because Bill O'Reilly is an extremely small person within a huge, nasty ego.
Someone forget to flush, again?
Bill: "…but we are not out to hurt the man in personal ways."
Bill O'Reilly is a RACIST.
Thank you kindly.

------Ben, I think you just may be on to something there. Thank you.

Jesse, maybe this will teach you a lesson about doing interviews with Fox. Of course they are going to go out of their way to stick a knife in your back. Democrats or liberals who lie down with the Murdoch-Ailes network would do well to remember this old parable...

If FAUX had an interview with Obama would a hot mike pick up him saying he's hot for condi?

---Here's another: "There's a time to fish and a time to mend nets."
"World Exclusive" What a joke.
Only Faux would air this kine of world exclusive. And Jesse Jackass deserves what he gets going on Faux racist channel.
So he calls NBC liars against conservatives. Examples????
I think Obama just found an out for ever having to appear on The Factor. Not that he would or should, but at least he's got an excuse now.
Obama: "I'll go on FOX only AFTER Bill O'Reilly has Jesse Jackson on, and apologizes to him for the shabby treatment he received regarding his off the record remarks, which were never intended for the public to hear."
WHERE'S MY ICED TEA, MOTHER F'ER?????!!!!
Unlike Bill O'Reilly, Jesse Jackson can take a punch. Remember during the FL recount 2000, he was out front and center trying to counter the shitstorm that the republicans were whipping up and so they unleashed a personal shitstorm right on him. ...not out to hurt the man in personal ways, my ass. Bless his heart for not letting them shut him up.
I think the silver lining to this episode is the statement about Fox and hostile territory and here's hoping it FINALLY sinks in for EVERY Democrat.
Bill O'Reilly... nothin' but a 2 bit whore!
So did BillO go to Yale for his M.A. in journalism as reported by Conservapedia...
http://www.conservapedia.com/Bill_O%27Reilly
Or did he get it at Boston University, per Wikipedia?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_O%27Reilly_%28commentator%29
Granted, neither site is known for accuracy, but why the discrepancy? Which one is wrong?
From the original post:
"We lie about Conservatives and Republicans, nut he’s a really a fair guy when it comes to liberals and Democrats."
That's a pretty interesting typo (Freudian slip anyone?) given Jackson's comments.
:LOL:
When is a mysteriously mistake open mike become a deliberate active bug?
Note to all Progressive or near Progressive politicians: Never ever give FOX the time of day? Do it at your own peril!!!!
Billo has mastered the Joe McCarthy technique of defecating on an individual while feigning concern for that person's reputation. McCarthy waved sheets of paper claiming to possess damning evidence but the public was never allowed to see what was written on the paper. The allegation always hangs over the accused like the proverbial Sword of Damocles. O'Reilly tell us he has recordings of vile and vituperative comments made by Jackson, but as a true blue concern troll, he will not substantiate his allegation with evidence.
oreilly would shit on his own mother if it was going to make him look good
Of course he means nothing personal in pointing out that anyone who disagrees with him is INSANE. Just because you can say it with a straight face does not make it SO. Idiot.
Jesse Jackson's comment was RACIST, yet no one is talking about that.
Cutting off a black man's genitalia was often central in lynching cases. Jackson's comments were not just crude but connected to a disturbing part of our history.
That this was a BLACK man articulating this image makes it even MORE disturbing.
I've said it before and I'll say it again...
I fucking love Bill Orielly!
He's the funniest man lacking even a remote concept of a sense of humor or the most basic understanding of irony to ever appear on television.
Ever.
