The O'Reilly Megalomania: The Best of 2007

Ah...it's December, so it's natural for media outlets to take the time to highlight some great moments from the past year. For Bill O'Reilly, that means he wants to show his favorite subject: himself. What makes me laugh is how Falafel Boy thinks that any of these clips show him in a good light. Watch how Sen. Chris Dodd, Salt Lake City Mayor Rocky Anderson, Geraldo, Colbert and others show just who is the pinhead.



Is that for real? I can't imagine a worse collection of clips for O'Reilly to show if he's trying to promote himself. What a buffoon.
Best thing about the closing of 2007 is that it brings O'Racist's time to retirement one step closer.
in lieu of blowing myself, i will humbly dote on my finest work.
thank you!
no, thank you!!
/sheesh
Frankly, I don't know to respond to calling this stuff "the best".
That guy is going to give himself a heart attack one of these days with all of his self righteousness.
I couldn't do it, I got through about 90 seconds and couldn't stand it anymore.
o' rottencrotch is the repukes boy! thoes repukes sure love smelly booty!
Every time I watch the Geraldo clip I expect Billo to take a swing at him.
C'mon, let BOR enjoy the last few moments of his 15 minutes of fame.
Reminds me of those "Olbermann Watch" clips in which they claim KO looked bad and was just the opposite, it instead became a KO promotional tool.
He thinks these clips make him look good? He couldn't win a debate against a box of rocks.This is truly a chimp with a platform.
Holy Crap !! Bill thinks this is stuff that makes him look good?
What a maroon!
People who really are great (significant, cool, intelligent, whatever) don't have to tell you.
How did he not include this stellar performance:
O'Reilly cuts mic of 29 year US Army veteran Colonel Ann Wright
I still can't believe he doesn't realize Colbert is mocking him and his kind.
The fact that oreilly thinks the same stuff used to lampoon him casts him in a good light speaks volumes about his detachment from reality.
Although I'd love to throw out accurate ad hominems, the biggest blow that O'Reilly will not be able to sustain is his irrelevancy. This clip frames it better than I ever could.
This man (and I use the term lightly) needs a padded room in ye olde local insane assylum.
I'm wondering what it was that happened to BOR as a small child - typical beatings by a drunken father or something more exotic?
It's amazing that Falafel boy can't see how ridiculous these clips make him, not his guests, look. He really is blinded by own enormous ego.
how does spin say it can stop itself? I don't think spinning something one way.. stop the spin.
"...me, me, me, me, me, me! Damn I'm good!", he said.
Jo @ 18:
In the good old days of therapy this guy would be lableled a "lunatic" and hosed down repeatedly.
It would be nice if we could talk about issues instead of idiots. I'm tired of seeing O'Reilly's face on C&L every day. Maybe it's just me.
Even my 87-year-old Republican uncle who watches the pathetic old BOR on a regular basis has been expressing his disgust with him.
Tom @ 24:
I can understand your frustration, but it is called Crooks and Liars.
I really want to take the same drugs that Billo must be on for him to think these clips do him proud. Anybody know what they are?
What ridiculous Orwellian world does Billo live in? THESE are the GOOD clips? No Bill, and I will put this way that you will understand, every clip was double-plus bad.
Lord, what an idiot. He really thinks these are the good clips of his blowhard shit?
What really makes me sick is that a person like Dodd ascends to the position of US Senator only to have a pinheaded, faux-journalist like O'Reilly interview him in such and unjustifiably rude manner....gah, fuck that idiot.
Oh and gee, Billo, you really GOT Colbert on the pronunciation of his name. Screaming at him for the diefinitive pronunciation...whew! Truly you have a dizzying intellect.
O'Reilly is a heinous human being who would have been marginalized in a better society than ours. In Canada, I dare say, O'Reilly would have a difficult time securing an audience the size of one from a typical local public access station. The reason Billy was not marginalized is twofold. First, in our society there is no necessary connection between good will/concern for others and big power. Secondly, America has more stupid people than Canada as a percentage of overall population. The disconnect between good will and power allowed the management at Fox "News" to themselves be heinous greedy sociopaths and to give O'Reilly a national podium and pay him 10 million dollars every year to spew devisive rhetoric designed to obfuscate the truth when it serves the conservative political movement to do so. It is a free country. The high percentage of stupid people allowed O'Reilly his audience.
Amazing. Billo's top clips are mine as well.
I don't understand....
Katie @ 26:
What are you two talkin' about? This site covers the issues every day, all day. There's plenty of room for threads that call one of the worst conservative, propagandist butt-boys now and again. Hey, I don't even watch these Billo clips for fear of losing my lunch, but I still think it's important to smack this bastard around as long as he has that craptacular show that gets piped into every breakroom and dental office in America.
For more O'Reilly insanity...
The O’Reilly Fear Factor: Collected Verses
The O’Reilly Fear Factor: They’re Coming To Take Me Away
Villains And Victims In Bill O’Reilly’s No Spin Zone
There is just sooo much to choose from.
This must be some obscure usage of the word "best" that I wasn't previously aware of.
SHUT UP! JUST SHUT UP!......
Just thought I would fill in the other top Bill'o moments of 2007
I
neververy rarely watch BillO clips. This one is no exception. Highlighting yourself is extremely tacky. I wouldn't expect BillO to be up on the finer points of professional etiquette.I usually don't use internet shorthand, but ZOMG! ROFLMAO. Really? That's his own highlight reel? I can't quite make myself believe that. After all, how can it be his best-of list without his hard-hitting ALF interview.
Can we do the same for Mr. Krauthammer?
i can't believe that he thinks this promotes his show. he really is insane.
"We're gonna need a young priest, and an old priest"
This is kind of like a boxer showing highlights of his fights where he keeps getting knocked out,and then saying these were his best and favorite fights. O'Reilly is way beyond help...
Sorry, but I can't watch billo, even making a FOOL of himself, but I know he thinks HE should have been his own pick for 'PERSON OF THE YEAR!'....'best male FOOL' that is.
BOR, the king of masturbatory demagoguery.
Unfortunately, to Billo's followers he probably does end up looking good in those clips, rose coloured glasses and all. The exchange with Geraldo is still one of the funniest things I've seen all year though. The way Bill hops up and down in his seat for a moment, shouting "Bull!!" over and over. Faux rage for the cameras. Not trying to marginalize the issue, but why does he not get that fired up on the situation in Iraq?
Answer: because he's just as fake as anyone else on TV. He spins so fast it must look like it's a no-spin zone. No, it's just spinning faster than his eye can detect.
We should dissect O'Reilly's head.
If we could figure out how so much crap gets stuffed into such a tiny package, we could solve the nation's landfill problem.
Can we make a New Year's resolution to never mention BOR again? Please?
Tom @ 24:
Come one Tom, we all need a few good laughs to get us through the day :)
Billo's Howard Hughes in his hotel roomism knows no bounds
I am seriously stunned! That piece looked like a piece of evidence in the insanity trial of bill-o.
Someone, somehow thought these snips were the highlights?
Figures that if the birarro world fnews says war is peace, wrong is right, left is wrong, up is down...that their
production staff and editors would produce this as a "2007 Best Reel" And from the station that argued in Federal Court that the First Ammendment gave them the ability, nay the right, to lie in their news presentations. No wonder neocons are drawn to the flame of neo-ruppet's pretty colored station.
Katie @ 26:
And, isn't Bloviating Billo the most egregious liar on air at present?
HAH! I seriously thought that was put together to make fun of him.. then I read the intro and I see it's the other way around.. hilarious!
I don't know if it's just my computer or I being banned because when I 'Submitted' last comment (some snark about MediaMatters and Nicole trying to put one by us), my screen greyed over for a 'while', but when it came back, it said "No New Responses" and all my info (pseudo, email & website) were all blank, like I had erased my cookies while posting. So this is just a test.
I got 65 seconds in and couldn't take anymore.
Bill O'Reilly is the Morton Downey Jr. of the 1990s-2000s.
He will become an irrelevant footnote.
I can only bear listening to this nut-case embarrass himself so much. Dodd owned him. I would have thought he had enough presence of mind to avoid trying to paint this fact over in a different light, while just reminding the rest of us how he was humiliated.
MM @ 54:
Or the fevered version of "Wally George".
jeffenator98 @ 11:
This is because their minds work differently than ours. They genuinely think they're on the moral high-ground.
Clearly constructive criticism would be helpful - but none of these arseholes would bother listening to anyone else. They know it all.
Hey Mr. O'Lielly . . . . . FALAFEL!!
*
O'Reilly, you're the king. King of crap.
Thick. As. A. Brick.
I cannot understand how the American public got hoodwinked by Billo Reilly. Why does this goofball dominate cable news ratings? How did he manage to write 4 consecutive #1 NY Times bestsellers? How does he attract 3.5 million radio listeners? How can my fellow Americans be so gullible? We are lost as a country.

WORD!
If you're reading this Billious, it's spelled F L E E T S. You can buy them over the counter or have one of your little interns sneak down to the drug store for you. It's time, reallly.
I can tell vaughn was mocking him a bit. sly cat
Every time I listen to this idiot I think of a line from a song "Artist and title long forgotten", "If you put his brain on the edge of a razor blade, it would look like a BB rolling down a 4 lane highway". For God's sake, please don't ever deport him to Canada, he would do better entertaining penguins in the Antarctic.
I couldn't do it.
I tried.
really I tried to make it through the whole @#$%ing clip
I couldn't do it, I would have thrown something through my screen. I almost did but I wised up quick and closed it.
I REALLY feel *sortta* sorry for the f'n morons who actually watch that show and had to sit through that $#!T
Wait a second -- he actually thinks these were his finest moments? Is this REAL??? SERIOUSLY????????? HOLY SHIT!!!
As much as I hate to go to FoxNews.com, I just checked and THIS IS INDEED REAL!!!!! In case there were any doubts, THE MAN IS INSAAAAAAAANE!!!!!! He looks like a total ass here!
Bill O'Reilly gets huge TV ratings because of his fiery bombastic confrontations with guests. O'Reilly stole his blueprint for success from Vince McMahon. The O'Reilly Factor is pro wrestling in a political format.
.
Why, the Senator and the Mayer, instead of just staring into the camera, didn't they say to the audience, "America, I did not accept an invitation on Bill O'Reily's show to be insulted,"?
.
Rocky Anderson was correct...................Bildo doesn't know shit from apple butter.
Nicole, you seem to be concerned when Bill Orielly gets obsessed with a topic or when he gets excited by another. I hate BOR, we all do, but you seem a little obsessed about him a well. And I think you actually "enjoy" hating BOR...... Are you just the other side of the same coin?
How can this asshole possibly believe he WON any of those debates?
We need to put Bill Orally in the same class as Keith Olbermann has put Rush Limbaugh...comedian. That's all he's good for, a laugh. There is certainly nothing serious about this guy, he is a the court jester of the Bush administration.
Too bad the 27 per centers out there that still support Bush and this jerk don't realize how much the rest of the country thinks they are a joke and insignificant.
Doncha wish Huckabee would arrange for O'Reilly to be appointed Head Nut of the Baptists?
And give him a little radio station in Mississippi?
I don't get it? This was supposed to make him look good? What? Huh?
More hilarious entertainlment from an ignorant Reslug.
Why would ANYONE want to appear on his program?
What everybody seems to be forgetting is that O'Reilly is
an ENTERTAINER, not a newsman, not a news anaysist.
He was hired to do exactly what he does best-make a
fool of himself and pose as a serious pundit to satisfy
the other idiots who watch wrestling believing it to be
a sport. This collection of clips only demonstrates his
talent for being annoying and disrespectful of his betters.
If you watch his show or listen to him on the radio, you
can see that he uses the same tactic every single time!
If his guest agrees with him and is a conservative hack
he allows them to speak uninterrupted. If his guest is
a reasoned and intelligent (liberal) person, he talks
right through them and refuses to let hem be heard.
That's what he DOES! That's what he was hired to do.
He satisfies that 28 - 30% group out there somewhere
who adore this administration, not in spite of its awful
behavior, but BECAUSE of it.
I haven't seen anybody so willing to show what a complete buffoon he is since the Jackass movies.
The great thing about the O'Reilly show is his endless parade of blond bimbos posing as guest analysts. I gotta give Billo credit; he knows what his male audience wants to watch.
CafeenMan @ 13:
Pffft! That's BS!!! I have to CONSTANLTY tell people how (significant, cool, intelligent)
AND drop dead sexy I am! Us self proclaimed geniuses have to work for recognition dammit!
PS....I'm friggin AWESOME!!!
My God, that guy O'Lielly is creepy!
What an absolute puke.
All you people pretty much sound the same...not very bright with your aspersions. Let's just say, not alot of sharp knives in this drawer. I might be bothered if any of you were backing up your words with intelligent discourse. I love Bill O'Reilly. I guess you all drink from the same "kool-aid." Those blonde "bimbos" are intelligent lawyers and or journalists if you ever took the time to listen you would know. A woman can't be blonde, beautiful and intelligent? Bill is a newsman and an analyst, very informative I might add. Obviously you people are in the minoritiy as his show is top in the ratings, as well as FOX news, which tickles me to no end! P.S. I don't watch wrestling and am not always a big fan of this administration. I'm
not gullible or lost. I am, however, lucky to be an American which I hope
some of you think about every once in awhile.
Abob, did you ever think that maybe you're being hoodwinked? Just a thought.
Oh, and you talk about comedy relief? I guess I got a little of that through reading these posts. Heinous, greedy, sociopaths??? That's a good one.
Pinheads?.....just saying.
I would really like to see these ratings of which he speaks. Oh, and Lori? You need to watch Bill Moyers sometime if you really want to see an intelligent news analyst. It'll be like attending a professional symphony concert after listening to the junior high band...
Lori @ 82:
Of course they can. However, the people BillO seems to attract.... well they don't really qualify.... And in terms of ratings, only the first two really matter.
I hope next time BillO talks down on blogs, and his guest asks him about his own blog they can have a discussion about controlled vs open forum and about if both their place in discourse.
And all this talk on the war on Christmas -- Wait a minute.
My 8 year old came back from public school disapointed because the school wouldn't allow him to say Merry Christmas to the troops in Iraq at the end of the letter of good cheer he wrote as part of his class project.
What war on christmas?
Mike @ 72:
As insigificant as the democrats who promised their gullible sheep that they would bring the troops home if they voted for them!
The telling thing is that the Democrats can't come up with someone to compete with O’Reilly. And the thing is......... It doesn't prove how good O’Reilly is, it just proves how pitiful the Democrats are!
Retort @ 88:
You would have to turn the dial off Faux News in order to find out for yourself. Just because Orally told you that does not make it a fact.
I sometimes wonder what's going to become of the Bill O'Reillys and the Rush Limbaughs of the world after the whole Bush Administration house of cards comes tumbling down.
With CIA chief Jose Rodriguez preparing to sing like a bird about the White House involvement in the CIA tape scandal, I'm noting more than one news website calling this "possibly the straw that broke the camel's back"... what's going to happen to the mouthpieces when it all unravels?
Billy-O thinks this tirade makes him look like a real fighter/warrior.
me and myself said
"You would have to turn the dial off Faux News in order to find out for yourself. Just because Orally told you that does not make it a fact."
O’Reilly didn't tell me. These folks did.

Easy way for billo and rush to stifle dissent eh? AM Radio became junk radio by the late 1980's.

"Easy way for billo and rush to stifle dissent eh? AM Radio became junk radio by the late 1980’s."
But when you can't get the US Postal Service, Wal-Mart, Microsoft, or even McDonalds to advertise on your radio station, you gotta know you are doing something wrong.
No dissent has been stifled. Somehow Air America and the Democrats can't figure out that nobody wants to listen to their doom and gloom.
Retort @ 94:
Bring back the fairness doctrine and that changes everything.
You people all seem to be missing the point. Bill's listeners AGREE with him and LOVE to see him shout down the guests who are not toeing his line. Of course his listeners and the regular readers of this blog belong to subsets that do not overlap.
We see a bigoted loud mouth. Others see a speaker of truth. Sad, but that's the way it is.
me and myself said
"Bring back the fairness doctrine and that changes everything."
Oh I see.
If they won't listen on their own, we'll just stuff it down their throats.
That's mighty progressive of you!
