I haven't had a chance to post about the Billo/Levin War until now. This whole bail out mess has really upset the equilibrium everywhere. Bill O'Reilly (audio) actually attacked his fellow right wing talk show hosts for being against the bail out.
"It gets me angry," said O'Reilly. "I do talk radio and most talk radio is conservative-dominated ideologues; Kool-Aid drinking idiots. Idiots. Screaming at you that this is socialism, this is this, this is that. ‘It's Clinton's fault.' It's Clinton's fault? He hasn't been in office in 8 years. It's Bush's fault! It happened under Bush's watch."
But then O'Reilly's tirade seemed to aim at Rush Limbaugh-without actually naming him.
"But let's get back to this talk radio stuff," said O'Reilly. "These idiots. I mean, they're misleading you. They're lying to you. They're rich, these guys. Big cigars. All of that. ‘Yeah, oh yeah, my private jet!' And they're saying, ‘Oh, no! No bail out!' Uh, uh, no way!
"Hey! You're going to get it, not them!" O'Reilly continued. "That foreign investment pulls out, we are toast! And they'll pull out if this bailout doesn't happen. Are you getting the message here? Walk away from these liars, these right-wing liars. Walk away from them! They're not looking out for you."
Mark Levin didn't like that one bit and actually brought up BillO's sexual harassment suit. Wow!
"And I'm not talking to some of you backbenchers, and you know who I mean," said Levin. "These blowhards. You get arrogant, stupid people who get paid a lot of money to be on radio and TV to be arrogant and stupid. And one of them, one of them is on the Fox News Channel, my favorite cable channel. And he has a fledgling radio show that has no ratings, and he'll be off radio soon because he's a failure. It's the non-factor: Bill O'Reilly.
"And he is no conservative," said Levin. "He's another mainstream, moron, phony journalist. That's what he is. And, oh, jealous like hell of Rush Limbaugh. Did you notice that? The cigar and the airplane? Let me tell you something else, jerk. You can't hold a candle to him." Your ratings suck."
"You paid more in hush money for your little phone sex than I've ever earned."
