Obama goes on The Factor tonight! Will Bill O'Reilly attack Sarah Palin's family?
Barack Obama is going on The Factor tonight. I was surprised, but Obama will be able to do what he has to do and also try to snatch some PR along with it. You know BillO will try to sandbag him as much as possible and he'll start with the phony argument that the media has been attacking Palin unfairly. Yesterday he used jokes by Letterman and of all people---Jay Leno as examples of the unfair attacks on her. JAY LENO. That's all he had to work with. Anyway, we haven't forgotten Bill's treatment of the Spears family so with that, I give you....The All Spin Zone.

Bill O'Reilly has a segment called Pinheads & Patriots. In one of his rants he attacked Jamie Lynn's family because she is a teen who got pregnant.
On the pinhead front, 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears is pregnant. The sister of Britney says she is shocked. I bet.
Now most teens are pinheads in some ways. But here the blame falls primarily on the parents of the girl, who obviously have little control over her or even over Britney Spears. Look at the way she behaves.
As he tries to attack Obama tonight, I wonder if Bill will call Sarah Palin a pinhead too? Highly doubtful, but this is just example # 587,65,542,475 of Republican hypocrisy brought to you by The Factor. Thanks to Comedy Central and Jon Stewart for catching this too...
Flip flop flip flop flippeddy doo, bill o'reilly has another puzzle for you!
I hope to see Obama befuddle him in all of his glory.
I refuse to watch. I won't dignify that retard or legitimize his show by tuning in regardless of who's on it.
I don't watch O'Reilly but it seems like he can occassionally be respectful. It would be awesome if he started telling Obama to SHUT UP! though. What a clown Bill is.
Funny http://news.yahoo.com/story//ap/20080904/ap_on_el_pr/cvn_palin the bitch didn't sound much like a wilting flower last night. Why she couldn't even bring herself to say Obama puts his country first like McCain though I remember Obama complimenting McCain, honoring his service and saying he loved his country.
Let's put this bitch out of her political misery once and for all so she can spend time her out of wedlock grandbaby.
Wonder if he'll cut Obama's mic off?
I would like to say that I hope O'Reilly really tells Obama how the American people feel. I think Obama is using this as an opportunity to be in the spotlight, that he loves, once again. John McCain waited to make his V.P. announcement out of kindness, and not to take away the announcement of Obama, but does the Obama camp show courtesy like that... NO. I would really feel bad if someone with as little experience as Obama made it to the White House... I mean really do we really want Obama running the White House and our country... NO.... someone should explain that this is not just another "community activist" gig... and that it entails REAL responsibility...like life or death decisions... not just the best way to pick what to wear for a press conference....
This may have been covered earlier today, but I was traveling...
Heard Howie Kurtz on Ed Schultz this p.m. Kurtz said that, while the media may (rightly) back off of Palin's personal life, they are still very much on the trail of the "Troopergate" story, the bridge to nowhere flip-flop, and the firing of two city officials in Wasila, Alaska. He said the media needs to be more "cautious," but is not inclined to let these things lie because they go to the kind of VP she would be.
He also said he found it ironic that McCain was trying to punish the media for actually doing its job when he has benefited more than most politicians from free media coverage and adulation on his bus.
I don't think the media is too happy about being pushed around now that McCain is biting the hand that fed him for so long. Some of them may actually even feel that Palin is just not qualified for the job.
I don't expect Obama to address any of this. His going on O'Reilly won't really have an impact on right-wingers. I think he's doing it more to say he did it and let it go at that.
Freepers now hate Bill's guts because after Obama's speech in Denver Bill said Obama was 'OK'.
Bill might not be his usual douchebag self, but I won't bet the farm on it.
Obama’s appearance will pique the curiosity of Republicans and Democrats alike as it comes on the heels of a story in Vanity Fair that discloses a meeting earlier this summer between Obama, Rupert Murdoch, and Fox News Chairman Roger Ailes to discuss, in part, the relationship between the Democratic nominee and the network often scorned by Democrats. -wsj link
damn... that's what sank hillary... well, one of the things... ... damn.
Keith @ 6:
How many points do you get for that?
This is smart for Obama. He can handle O'Reilly just fine, and his not-voting-for-Obama-anyway audience gets see who their next President will be. Contrast this with McCain's media "strategy" of stiffing the press. Brilliant timing as well, stepping on McCain's night.
Keith @ 6:
Keith, something I've yet to hear one of his critics explain: please define "experience."
As for "community activism," one of the big reasons I decided to support Obama--is this is for everyone; use it as you please--has to do with his commitment to community service. If John McCain and the Republicans are serious about the need for community service in this country, they cannot be given a free pass to then turn around and denigrate someone who has devoted a good chunk of his career to it. It's immoral, it's hypocritical, and it's a flawed argument.
Keith @ 6:
So, are you better off now than you were 8 years ago? I'm not and neither are the majority. I hope Bill does ask that question.
John said:
Do what he has to do? Now really? Like, our O-man needs to have any association with O'Loofah?
Obama could say he's never HEARD of O'Reilly and it wouldn't cost him a vote.
Palin's daughter: had an outta wedlock baby while Palin tries to force abstence before marriage down everyone else's throats.
McCain: dumped his first wife for a younger richer woman.
Obama: has two kids with his current wife after they were married and they're still together.
Who's more like the true "family values" candidates and which ticket gives the most lip service to it?
Screw BillO the Clown.
I bet he will be respectful and probably "fair." However, in another week or so, after he has garnished all he can in terms of publicity from this interview, he will once again start up his BS of yelling and screaming and pushing hypocritical repuglican crap.
By the way, anyone see the story behind Obama finally going on BillO the Clown's show? Apparently there was some pretty heavy negotiations by Obama himself and Murdoch and Ailes! Good for Obama!

"...one of the big reasons I decided to support Obama--is this is for everyone; use it as you please--has to do with his commitment to community service. If John McCain and the Republicans are serious about the need for community service in this country, they cannot be given a free pass to then turn around and denigrate someone who has devoted a good chunk of his career to it.
By the way, I believe this should be shouted from the mountaintops--to every editorial page and staff in this country. Get out there and define "community service" (and the candidate who *actually* did it) before karl rove and the repugs try to define it for us. That's how we lost the word "liberal." We don't have to let that happen. Push Back!
What we do without Colbert and Stewart to shin the light on the hypocrisy of the reichwing. Clearly the MSM won't do it. irresponsible "journalists" won't do it, thank GOD for these two.....and Obermann....and Maddows.
Did I leave anyone out? Not that many I know.
Are they going to DO IT LIVE. Or is this going to be a taped segment.
Why is he legitimizing that network, let alone that show? If he's going there to kick butt that's one thing, otherwise... why?
Keith @ 6:
This is textbook for stage 1 of coping with loss: denial. The right will lose so horribly in November that it's actually creating a rift in space-time, and rippling back into what will then be the past (ie the present). They're just trying to get it all out of the way. Buckle up for stage 2: Anger.

I agree with this. People who still watch Bill for other than comedy value probably haven't seen Obama before and think of him as that scary black muslim. I suspect that if Bill tries to bring religion into it Obama will school him on some basic christian principles such as not bearing false witness, nor coveting thy neighbour's ass (unless thou art Larry Craig). It might bring more voters than staying away would.

We can criticize McCain for dodging interview requests and failures to appear on shows now. It shows strength.

Keith @ 6:
Don't you find it ironic that last night the republicans were all speaking against "Washington insiders" yet still harping about "experience"? Where do you think McCain got that experience? You don't consider him an "insider"? Come on, he's been there for years. And Palin's record shows she has certainly gone for her share of Washington money no matter what she said last night.
From what I heard last night the republicans don't want any more "Washington insiders" yet "experience" is a bonus. Can't you see the the problem here?

Not watching this crap.
Obama or no Obama not supporting the Tube Machine.
SPREAD IT ALL AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'll have more to say about Sarah Palin's speech at some point tomorrow - I saw it live, from the press stand in St. Paul, which was perhaps not the ideal venue from which to judge its television impact - but based on the reactions I've heard and read to date, let me just reiterate the advice that Reihan offered to Democrats when she became McCain's pick for veep: Do not attack her. Stop referring to her as a just a small-town mayor and a neophyte governor who's unqualified to be President; in fact, stop referring to her at all. Attack John McCain, John McCain, and John McCain. Attack him all day, all night, and on weekends too. Behave as though Sarah Palin does not exist. Pray that the media will find some Palin-related scandal even more shocking than the perfervid theories aired this week (they'll be looking for one, no doubt), and in the event that they fail to do so, do not under any circumstances allow yourselves to be drawn any deeper into a debate (which the McCain campaign plainly wants to have) over the relative qualifications and accomplishments of Barack Obama and the Republican vice-presidential nominee. Nothing that's happened this week has changed the fact that it's going to be very, very hard for the Democrats to lose a race between Obama and McCain - and as a result, the Obama-Biden ticket has vastly more to gain from changing the subject away from Sarah Palin than they do from placing her candidacy, her qualifications and her background front and center in this race.
SPREAD IT ALL AROUND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't believe Obama is going to give borly the magic douchebag what he wants.
Is he getting anything in return for giving faux noise an endless supply of "gotcha" moments and carefully edited material for sound bites?
this really pisses me off!!!!!
why is obama giving billo validity in the american conscientious ?

The contrast between Obama going on The Factor and McBain's clamming up, hiding Palin, blaming the press, etc., is interesting in itself.
Now who do you want to be the next leader of the free world?
Mature Audience @ 40:
Actually we don't need any of these people to shed light on it. They just reinforce what most of us already know.
Keith @ 6:
Yea Keith; those community organizers don't do anything but pick out what to wear: MORON
Last week in Denver, Democrats highlighted the biography of their party’s presidential nominee, Barack Obama, and the fact that he got his start as a community organizer on the South Side of Chicago.
One interesting twist this election year has been the nation’s exposure to community organizing as a job, and as something that might help prepare an individual to lead. It’s not surprising that much of the country hadn’t heard of community organizing before now. A good organizer is always in the back of the room, or better yet, outside collecting sign-in sheets.
However, last night here in our great hometown of St. Paul, Republicans gathered for their turn to make their case to voters. And Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin, along with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, openly mocked and derided the job of community organizing.
Comparing her experience to that of Obama’s, Palin said “I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer - except that you have actual responsibilities”.
Now, let me be clear: my interest here is not to defend Barack Obama’s experience, but the professional field to which Wellstone Action trains people to devote their lives.
So let me outline, for anyone who may be curious, the responsibilities of a community organizer:
8am -
Wake up, knowing that the day ahead of you will require you to work long hours, for little pay, less thanks, and zero credit.
Sit down at your desk, or pick up your cell phone, and figure out the people in the community you need to talk to to identify the challenges being faced. Set up meetings with leaders and regular people to get buy-in on the proposed solution.
12pm -
Make decisions about how best to proceed with your plan for change in your community. Figure out how you will influence powerful interests without any resources other than your own scrappy resourcefulness and the support of many individuals earned by painstakingly building relationships.
5pm -
Figure out who in your community wields power and influence, who doesn’t, and why. Make hundreds of calls, knock on hundreds of doors, and listen to hundreds of stories in order to bring people together in common cause. Convince folks to set aside what makes them different and focus on their shared interest - it’s the only way to build common ground and affect change.
8pm -
Learn from those around you and prepare for the next day. Write follow-up notes, make confirmation calls, and thank your volunteers. Remind yourself to be tenacious, because the process of change is long and can be slow in coming.
Being an organizer means putting the needs of the community above yourself and your ego. Your task is to influence the powerful with little more than the common will, and do so while developing the leadership of those around you. A good organizer is always working to put themselves out of a job, because many others should be prepared to step up and take their place. You listen and learn, coordinate and plan, arrive early and stay late, and do the real work that improves people’s lives.
It’s easy to laugh at something unfamiliar, or mock something you don’t understand. But community organizers have been the ones that moved our country forward during times of crisis and great change. They are ordinary people working to improve their communities - that doesn’t sound very elitist, does it?
For more information on what community organizing is, check out the writings of Harvard professor (and community organizer) Marshall Ganz.
Please go over there and let them know that we also condemn the attacks made on them last night and that they are vital to our communities.
What happened to John McCain's two sons? Christ, they are like invisible men, forgotten but not gone. I thank fortune I did not have to grow up in one of these creepy right-wing families. Maybe O' Reilly can discuss creepy non-functioning Republican families.
This is actually pretty sweet.
Obama *did* promise he'd go on O'Really's show "after the primaries" so he did have to go on at some point or else be hammered daily by constant Fox whinging. To do it on the night Grampa is doing his speechifyin' is positively inspired. A little payback for the VP announcement after the closing night of the Dem convention.
What could Bill say? No, you gotta do it on my time? Obama is running for president after all which makes him just slightly grander than BillO.
Now instead of giving full attention to Grampy's speech the media will be forced to include Obama in the script for tomorrow.
Speaking of pinheads, check out this hilarious video of Palin's daughter giving the baby a new hairdo during her mom's speech last night:

This doesn't belong here, but God Bless Rachel Maddow. Or Thank The Spaghetti Monster for her. Whatever. She is on MSNBC right now (David Gregory) just handling this Republican tool, Stephen Hayes. Just pwning him. I love her so goddamn much.
She will not let him get away with hammering his braindead talking points, freezing him in his tracks as he parrots the point that the press has treated Palin shabbily. "How?" He launches into how irresponsible it was for the media to claim she was a member of the Alaskan Independence Party. She brakes him again, and breaks him with the facts about it. He tries to weasel out of it, but he is pwned by the facts.
This is a thing of beauty.
"There is that awkward tape of John McCain saying, 'I have voted with George Bush 90% of the time."
I wish we had more like her. She flat out rocks.
"90%'s an awkward number, Steve."
Can she debate Palin?
Entertainment News
More than 40 million people see Palin speech.
Big freaking deal. 270 Million other Americans didn't.
Damn I put a parental control on Fox News and I forgot the access code.
I suspect O'Reilly will spend quite a bit of time on the mantra Obama=Elitist, and not like "regular folks" with traditional values like the McCains. Well, perhaps Obama can use this bit of trivia from last night:
Cindy McCain Wednesday, Sept 3 GOP Outfit:
Oscar de la Renta dress: $3,000
Chanel J12 White Ceramic Watch: $4,500
Three-carat diamond earrings: $280,000
Four-strand pearl necklace: $11,000–$25,000
Shoes, designer unknown: $600
Total: Between $299,100 and $313,100!!

Unfortunately MoveOn.org put out a call to its members to write a letter to the editor regarding Sarah Barracuda. I know what you are saying. I think they want the country to attack her and portray McCain as a victim. But I also think we have to be tough and stand up for ourselves in the way Kerry didn't. It's such a god damn balance that's hard to figure out. Your damned if you do damned if you don't. They are master campaigners. Hopefully the country is smarter than four years ago. We'll see. But I agree it's stupid to stay focused on the "it" girl too long. Time to move on to issues, voting reform, war, torture, economy, bush, healthcare, environment, etc. Anthrax and Treason as well.
At least Obama's taking on interviews from Republicans - McCain gets a hissy fit when Campbell Brown (not really a Democrat) asks one of his operatives a reasonable question!
For that he refused an interview with CNN and Larry King. If a man can't even face Larry King how will he face Putin?
No good going on about the bravery of the past - he's going for a job in the future - has his bravery left him?

Just in from Barack...
Why would the Republicans spend a whole night of their convention attacking ordinary people?
With the nation watching, the Republicans mocked, dismissed, and actually laughed out loud at Americans who engage in community service and organizing.
Our convention was different. We gave the stage to everyday Americans who hunger for change and stepped up to make phone calls, knock on doors, and raise money in small amounts in their communities.
You may have missed it, but we also showed the country a video with the faces and voices of those organizers, volunteers, and donors from every corner of the country.
What you didn't hear from the Republicans at their convention is a single new idea about how to make the healthcare system work, get our economy moving for the middle class, or improve education.
Just attacks -- on me, and on you.
But what the McCain attack squad doesn't understand is that people like you -- who devote part of their busy lives to organizing and building their communities -- have the power to change this country.
With your help, that's exactly what we're going to do.
Thank you,
Barack
L.A. Confidential @ 49:
They are both in the military, but McCain won't talk about them. They probably hate the old bastard, just like Rudy's kids.
Jason @ 37:
I'd go one step further and generally ignore McCain. The POW and age teflon is just too thick. I've said it before. Democrats need to attack the Republican Party, and attack it relentlessly. Remind the voters that the Republicans have held the White House 20 out of the last 28 years, and had majorities in Congress all but two out of the last 14 years. That should do it.
This will be the first time I've willingly watched O'Reilly. The other times I had to endure it were when I visited my in-laws.
The only thing that is making this palatable are my hopes that Obama hands him his ass, albeit in a classy, reserved fashion, which is Obama's style.

B O thinks its pretty nice down there anyway :)

Ah, shit...it's a taped interview...this can't go well.
Who is Tanya Acker? Lightweight or someone with substance?
There is absolutely no acceptable excuse for any respectable public figure to legitimize O'reilly. The man and his show are both jokes. The pinheads who watch him will not be swayed by anything Obama has to say. Trust me, their minds have been made up for a long long time.
O'Reilly's now masturbating about how he "ticks 'em off one by one."
Screw it, I can't watch the mutual masturbation between him and Newtie anymore.
I look forward to the vid clip...I'm sure the editing will be something for the record books.
No until Tuesday??!! WTF
I have a lot of confidence in Obama's abilities, but I'm not sure what good could possibly come out of this. I hope Obama has a clearer idea of that than me.
It is stupid for Obama to lend creedance to Bill O'Rielly by appearing on his show. I thought Obama was smarter than that.
I love when O'Reilly called himself a journalist...and now we hear their gonna drag this out over next week!
I don't understand what Obama has to gain from this. It's embarrassing.

I take back what I said earlier about this interview. In the first segment O'Reilly proved himself to be the jerk we all know him to be. He was rude and interrupted at every opportunity. And he's going to drag this "exclusive" interview out over three days for ratings purposes, just like he did when he interviewed Howard Stern and dragged that interview out over an entire week. The man is a despicable ratings whore. I'm not watching the rest. Somebody else here can tell me what was said.

You are absolutely right. On one hand I applaud Obama for taking the chance and trusting that this would be fair and balanced. I would have done the same thing. But after watching the first segment, and what can be done with some slick editing, not to mention the spin afterwards, it was a mistake.
Just finished watching the interview and Obama held his own in Part 1.
That's right Billo the Clown is going to milk this for 3 more shows starting Monday.
He tried shouting over Obama a couple times, but O came across very well.
We'll have to see how Billo spins it though. What a D-bag.
I have to go shower now.
Of course Stewart failed to point out the obvious:
If Palin wins, her illegitimate granddaughter will be supported by the government.

Well said. We can't take a back seat now, especially with the propaganda that the GOP is throwing out to save its mold hide.
This appearance on the O'liely Factor is a part of his game plan, although not significant in the fact that the numb-skulls that watch the show, because they think it is actual news, for the most part will not be moved to vote for him. However it will show courage under fire (even though O'liely is an ass clown). Again I say, this is only the first step in the game plan, try not to read too much into it. Obama is very smart and also clever let him work his strategy.
Orangutan. @ 74:
Now why couldn't they put this into a commercial, set to air during McCain's speech?
They need to expose this message a little more in order to counter-act the lovefest of Palin in the press.
What are you talking about, John Amato? Get off the subject McCain's unremarkable VP. Seriously, it's been a week. What does Palin have to do with Obama going on the Factor? Do you just say stuff like that to incite us? Stay on point. OBAMA IS GOING ON THE FACTOR! How is this the first time you've remarked on this. And all you have to say is "I wonder if he'll talk about Palin's baby problems."?
Wow.

I suppose you expected a millionairess to dress in rags and shop at Wally-Mart probably like you do. Shows the woman has good taste and if you were making the kind of money she is you would be sporting the same.
As for Sarah Palin....just goes to show you that when a mother any mother is busy most of the time and not at home raising and supervising (that would be underlined) her children they will do what any bored unsupervised child would do.

Why legitimize this nitwit by appearing on his little show. I know you need to reach out to people, but his viewers are a lost cause. Seriously. I think it's a mistake to go on that retarded show.
God, I hope they do it live.
Do it live!!!

Keith,
You do yourself a disservice by not learning how to form sentences or use punctuation properly. I don't think you're a troll because, frankly, you don't appear smart enough to warrant a response.
It's a hard lesson to learn, so you might as well start learning it. Once you get into the real world, people will judge you by how you write and speak. Using ellipses instead of a period makes you look dumb. As far as your points go, I won't listen to them until you are able to put them forth without appearing like a 14 year old boy.
So unless you intend to spend your life doing menial labor, where intelligence isn't necessary, I would suggest working a little harder on your writing ability.
Might I remind you this is her SECOND kid at 17.
Not her first. HER SECOND.
And yeah, apparently when Jamie Lynn gets pregnant she's portrayed as a pinhead (by the entire media) yet the republicans see the outrage of the media to Palin as 'liberal media'.
Hypocrisy!

Last comment... yeah. Trying to reach out to viewers on the O'Reilly show as a democrat is like purposefully sticking your hand into a pail full of knives to retrieve a dropped cookie. Just let it go, man. The people who watch his show are not democrats (unless watching for a laugh), are ill-informed, and just plain stupid. There's seriously no need to do it. You can reach out to moderate republicans somewhere else, not to the far-right loonies that watch O'Reilly.
What a surprise. Obama is making an appearance on FOX.
It doesn't mean much that for the first time since the late
50's I will vote for a third party candidate. The Democrats
always manage to mess up a sure win. Obama on FOX is
stupid. He's a lousy candidate with zero common sense. I
was absolutely voting for this ass-hat until the visit to Fox.
Typical stupid move by the Democrats. The Green Party
will get my vote for President & my other votes will be for
my old party, Democrat. Obama is a loser who doesn't know
how crazy the American public is, so, UP YOURS! Obama.
The American public will elect the goofy McCain & It's four
more years of a zany Government. We deserve McCain &
we got him. Enjoy. :-(
so - how'd he do? any video or transcript links?
