How about a Walsh-friendly edit of that Bill O'Reilly confrontation?
If you happened to see Bill O'Reilly wanking ever onward Monday night in recapping his confrontation with Joan Walsh on Friday, you probably got the same low mordant chuckle out of his self-serving edit of the interview. After all, it gave him a chance to repeat three more times his leading "When did you stop beating your wife?" question.
But as we noted at the time, Walsh at critical junctures of the exchange handed O'Reilly his lunch -- especially when she zeroed in on his irresponsible, violent and often eliminationist rhetoric directed at the objects of his ire, and his refusal to man up to the predictable (and now manifest) consequences of that.
Indeed, O'Reilly (as usual) edited the video to make him look triumphant against the hapless liberal. But in reality, Walsh seriously called him out at key moments and kicked his butt -- especially at the end.
So we decided to offer our own Crooks and Liars Special Edition Video of the showdown. In which Walsh shines triumphant. It's not quite the whole story, but it's a lot closer to what actually happened than O'Reilly's pathetic whinefest.
Speaking of O'Reilly whinefests, I've also compiled a collage of his recent whining about left-wing meanies who have the audacity to call him out for nastiness -- denouncing in particular the "politics of ridicule" and the "demonization" of the opposition that those hateful far-left liberals employ. This includes some footage of one of his ambush crews attacking a woman at her car -- for having simply criticized O'Reilly.
And then it's capped off by a couple of his nastier "Pinhead" segments. Who's demonizing who?
Bill-O is deranged, unhinged, and an a-hole. He said he doesn't judge others and that Walsh could state her opinion right before he said she had blood on her hands. What a loser. I don't know why he has any advertisers.
I think he LIKES appearing on C&L. Now he is reaching people who would NEVER watch his show. Good job!
...if you don't mind spending several minutes watching orielly yelling and shaking his finger at a woman. And calling her names.
Maybe I'm just really twisted... but I think he's one of the funniest guys on TV. I just can't watch his show.
He wouldn't last a minute if he sat on his hands. What is arm waving without arm waving? I dare 0'Liely to do a show with his hands behind his back.

jitter, if by funny you mean angry, cruel and rude, then yes, he's "funny." I think he does conservativism a great disservice with his style...and that's fine with me!
Billo always has these follow up smears after someone hands him his ass on his own show.

you should start limiting your posts on this guy to maybe once a week.
of an interview you probably did not watch is a bit much?
“Why would anyone with a functioning brain believe this guy?”
Some guy with an eating disorder
No, eliminate them.
Bill O', with free speech comes responsibility. You exercised little with respect to Dr. tiller and others. I hope there will be an accounting.
I just can't listen to that fucking creep. I got to the point where he told her to quit filibustering, when he's the one who was talking over her and telling her to shut up.
Why the fuck is this guy still on the air?!
I think he's still on the air because Fox viewers like a man who puts a woman in "her place". This fits in with the beliefs of too many very right winger's religion. I guess to them Bill is a "man's man". To me he is a hot headed dick head and most likely a coward.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
..is a man's man. I'm embarrassed to be a "man" if I have to share that label with misogynist boor. Coward? Yes! Hot headed? You bet! A "man"? NO way!

Keoni: "NOT NOW MICKEY!"
What a nasty, ugly guy O'Reilly is. Does he ever stop ranting and let his "guests" speak? Who would want to go on his show, since he spends the entire time putting words in people's mouths?
I'm sorry, I can't watch the unfriendly edit. That was not a debate about an issue. It was something unspeakable, and I mourn for our country to see that we've descended to this pathetic level.
can't we take a sabbatical from having to listen or post about this asshat.
Vote GOP and move forward to the 18th Century.
You know what I got from watching both of those videos? Bill likes to bully females. A man who likes to yell at women and bully them must feel he is lacking in some way as a man. I find him disgusting as a man and as a human being.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
lacking, it's what he's got that makes me a little nauseous.
He bullies everyone.. and to be honest I cant even watch clips of him, because its disgusting. I just cant believe he gets away with the shit he gets away with.. This is how fox works.. They get you to talk, to open your mouth and say whatever, then they twist what you say into what they WANT you to say... Thats why they come at you with these ambush guys.. they ask you stupid questions and no matter what you say, they twist it into whatever they want you to have said in the end. Its best if nobody goes on his show at all.. but then he will say 'oh libs are scared to come on my show' Nobody likes to be bullied and in turn have their words twisted.
keeping track of this jerk/killer. Keep it up David, this guy needs to be watched and called out at each step of the way until one of aborting mothers asks him to STFU.
Frankly if I were his interviewee, I'd say, "If you point that finger at me one more time, I'm walking off the set," and keep my promise.
Or maybe, "Don't point that finger at me; we don't know where it's been."
Diabolus est Deus Inversus
If I was in the same room with him and he pointed his finger at me like that, I would break it.
Billo doesn't like having blood on his hands,
The reality of his actions and the results of those actions are smacking him right up side his head.
He comes unglued.
Then he descends into the childish... No, not Me, YOU YOU YOU argument.
The guy is nuts.
And I agree with P.O.P up there. He likes to bully women. He's a serial abuser.
What is your conceptual, continuity?
Can you blame him?

I wonder how often lately he has said, "Out damned spot!"
She zinged him with the Knoxville shooter story. If this were boxing it would be a total TKO. Guess he didn't see that one coming. He should have come right back at her in his usual style and called her a do-do head.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
I saw the whole thing, and the only time she got the better of him was at the very end. She allowed him to frame the questions. She should have called bullshit on this and re-framed them or shot back a question SHE framed, i.e. "So, Bill, you think that ALL women whose health is in danger should still have the baby, even if it means her death? No? Then you are in step WITH Dr. Tiller, since NO woman makes this decision easily" or "Your examples are crap, Bill. Show me proof of one - just one - time when a woman had this procedure because she 'wanted to go to a concert' or some other such nonsense. You are an out-and-out liar."
Sure he would have blown his top, but if she maintained her calm she'd make him out to be more of an asshole (if that's possible.)
The problem is, Bill Orelly uses ambush journalism perfected. She came on to talk about one thing, and he turned it around into a completely different argument to catch her unawares. The reason he uses ambush techniques is because in a real fair and balanced debate he would get his ass handed to him. Joan should have learned a couple things from Jeremy Glick. And you know, Oreilly came back the next day to smear and lie about the guy. You know its a no-win situation.
Hey Bill, if you are reading this, I think you are vile and absolutely without a doubt, un-hinged. You are psychotic and totally full of yourself you cheap side-show hypocrite! You stand behind your constitutional right to say anything you damn well please, yet you refuse to stand behind the laws of this land (like em or not). if you don't like the laws, then vote for change you a**hole!
...it's still a waste of time to appear on O'Reilly's belligerent shoutfest.
There is nothing edifying about anything in this clip or the original. I already knew the opinions of both people, I already knew that O'Reilly is a colossal ass who shouts down his guests/victims, and so on. Walsh didn't convince anyone that she is right and O'Reilly is wrong, she didn't get a single O'Reilly fan to throw up his or her hands and say "That's enough! I'll never watch Bill O'Reilly again."
What she did was provide one of the world's biggest buffoons with yet another opportunity to play the tough guy. What a waste of time.
each of which probably generates more comments than any post on health care.
“Why would anyone with a functioning brain believe this guy?”
Some guy with an eating disorder
Okay Ricky, don't make me come over there and cut your microphone. ;)
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
I don't get where Joan is the winner, even in the remix. She, like many Liberals, are too mamby-pamby with Billo. Cut him off and question his facts, for crying out loud! 60K abortions??? Let's see, that would be more than 16 abortions a day for 10 years straight--with no holidays or time off sick. Does that sound right to anyone? I think not.
Liberals on Billo's hate-pornorama have to STOP LETTING HIS INANE B.S. GO BY UNCHECKED--ATTACK HIS BOGUS CLAIMS ALREADY!!!!
Beware of anyone promising a future full of yesterdays.
A good friend of mine, a Ph.D. psychologist, just completed and published a study indicating there is an inverse correlation between one's level of intelligence, and time spent watching or listening to Bill O. People able to watch a whole hour of BillyBoy spouting his crap tend to have IQ's in the same range as room temperature. Ninety two percent of those watching or listening to Bill O' more than once per week were previously diagnosed as Mentally Retarded (and generally come from the band of southern states known to the rest of us as "The Stupid States".
I wonder back when I was in college what the correlation was between my level of intelligence, and time spent watching or listening to this:

Animation is an art form - and WB is IMO the greatest animation studio - ever. To compare this to some bloviating right-wing assclown is, well, there's no comparison.
Neal Cavuto was ranting today because the President won't come on his show. Hell, I applaud the President for blowing all of Fox News Channel off. Why waste his time wading around in horse manure? He knows their only desire is to dirty him up as much as they can. Maybe they could ask their old buddy george bush to come over and kiss their asses just like he did for the past eight years.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
Orwell predicted that there would be hating like this: http://reason.com/news/show/134074.html
"Dr. Tiller performed 60 000 abortions, acording to...The...Paris...Business...Review..."
Fuck you and your hyperbole, O'Reilly. How about checking your facts before bloviating them on air?
The Washington Times did NOT report that he performed 60 000 abortions. It QUOTED Shaun Kenney, Executive Director of the AMerican Life League as saying "Dr. George Tiller personally boasted of performing 60,000 abortions."
I hope the Washington Times sues your ugly ass for misrepresenting what they had printed! Maybe that will teach you to stop quoting truty-sounding factoids.
..the evidence that Dr. Tiller "boasted" of performing 60K abortions.

The republicans came out with their health care plan today. Kind of like their budget plan, remember it contained no numbers? Well their health care plan was a four page outline.
I mean they gotta stop this. They look like fools every time they do one of these big unveiling deals. They pull back the curtain and there's nothing there. Kind of like if you pulled the curtain away from Bill, you would find nothing of substance there either.
Say what you mean. Mean what you say. But don't say it mean.
I think it's better for all of us if they continue to demonstrate just how hollow their ideas and policies really are.
I didn't realize the level of persecution he endures. Dang good thing he's "loofah strong".
RIPS off her rubber facemask, revealing Andrea Mackris, who then says
" Dr. Tiller was a babykiller but YOU dude, have killed me from ever wanting to have sex with any man again...ever.
we want those RNC leaders from the Klown Kar to CONTINUE to hand us 4-page outlines filled with Fluffernutter so the public can continue to realize how vapid and bought-and-sold they are. MORE !!!
Your Republican Party: the party that brought you Sarah Palin (fer sure), The Boner (cries), and Glen (I'll say anything) Beck.
Have Dems ever HAD it so good? Hell, the Traditional Republican party used to have people in it like John Dean (who saw the Light), and William Buckley, who may have been wrong, but he sounded damned good saying it.
Pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that the RNC continues to give us gifts like Boner, Michael Steele, Ensign "Screw a Staffer Today", and Sarah Palin....the gifts that keep on giving.
You can't PAY for a party like this.
..a Special Prosecutor.

My mind and body simply would never be able to tolerate what it must take to keep an eye on him...let alone the super human feat of using his MO against him!
Bravo!
Boy, that guy really hates women, doesn't he. That was an astonishing display.
I did watch the interview at crooks and liars.
But I don't think I will do that again.
It is just to disturbing to listen to the insane fox heads.
Proof positive republicanism is a mental illness!
Fox is a very demented organization and I just cannot stand their crap!
WATB!!
Only when the last tree has died

O'Lielly practices sucking on his favorite falafel.
I found the interview with the two women of color particularly instructive.The barely suppressed violence and dark threatening atmosphere he creates when he is boxed into a corner is disturbing on at least a couple of levels.I grew up in a house with an authoritarian father and understand this mindset implicitly.With Bill it's "my way or the highway.Another thing that really makes me sick is how this insufferable swine sets things up in that calm banter in such a way as to imply his perspective is a given,the obvious "truth".In this way his guest debaters are hobbled from the outset.They must "disavow" what is after all,"common knowledge" i.e. the Left Wing is "destroying the reputation of America around the World-that's a proven fact".(I'm paraphrasing-make up your own O'Reilly "truism")
"To me, truth is not some vague, foggy notion. Truth is real. And,
at the same time, unreal. Fiction and fact and everything in between,
plus some things I can't remember, all rolled into one big "thing."
This is truth, to me. "
-Jack Handy
if it contains bill-o, it's too vile for me.
Bill is a domestic terrorist enabler. He might as well have pulled the triggers. He should be on the FBI's watch list instead of Code Pink or some band of liberal grandmothers.
Bill does not mention one word about the vessel....er, mother. He makes it sound like Tiller dragged the mother by the hair of the head and performed that procedure against her will. Not one word from Bill about it being the woman's choice because at the end of the day, these fascists are all about taking away the choice of anyone who isn't white, straight, Christian and male/
I really can't stand this man. enough said
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g4HlVcJw1QU&fe...
he would be named Arrogant, Disgusting, and Obnoxious.
about the unborn is comedy gold! I'm sure if loofah boy ever inadvertantly knocked up one of his conquests he'd be speed dialing Dr. Tiller.
Think about O'Reilly and tell me this is not a sick damaged human being incapable of accepting his own damaged inner child ...
In order for him to become rational and whole he would first have to admit he felt unloved or unwanted as a child and he would have to feel the life long shame of that.
O'Reilly is terrified of allowing himself to connect his own past or to ever become a whole human being so he acts out his drama in a text book case of projection and denial.
He is probably forever driven to ignore his own reality by demonizing others in order to stave off the actual horror of his own sad and destructive life.
I would love to get some real information about his childhood. I am sure he was somehow severely damaged ... I'd bet money on it.
It is time (past time) for a total boycott of O'Reilly by all progressives. Never, ever appear on his show...period.
Don't worry. O'Reilly's hate will catch up with him sooner or later. And when it does his heart is going to suffer a massive seizure from all the fear and hate and anger that fills it.
The sooner the better!
What i'm getting from this is that 0'Liely has blood on his hands, and he wants everyone in the world to know it, if they didn't already.

I just heard that Hillary Clinton broke her elbow. Sotomayor the ankle. Is Fox News setting booby traps for liberal women? Walsh had better watch where she's walking.
could be condensed into this:
Bill O'Reilly is disgusting, horrible, evil....
Take off the liberal glasses people, reflect and realise there's different viewpoints in the world.
O'Reilly gets hate from the left and from the right.
