Bill O'Reilly knows what's best for Coleen Rowley (video)
Former FBI whistleblower Coleen Rowley joined Bill so he could tell her that she was making a big mistake going to join Cindy Sheehan's vigil in Crawford.

Rowley, a former special agent in the FBI's Minneapolis office, gained fame in 2002 for her criticism of FBI leadership. She said officials failed to act on information that cast suspicion on some Sept. 11 hijackers in the months before they carried out their attacks, and was later named one of Time magazine's people of the year for her efforts.

1. I saw that last night.
He came across as threatening. Almost like he himself could (and would) destroy her. It was scary. But that was the first time I had watched his show.

7. This is the 4th or fifth such "interview" I watched via internet.
In NO case did that O'Reilly CREEP permit the other a free opportunity to express him/herself ... constant interjections of sometimes lengthy rants. Just on that ground alone, he doesn't deserve to be given the title of "interviewer".

I watch AAR interviews on the internet on occasion, but I have NEVER seen anything like that. Of course, when you're in the right, it's easy to be fair-minded and considerate. It sorta gives them an unfair advantage.

2. Bad Bill is tough when he's facing a lady!
Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?

He went out tiger hunting with his elephant and gun
In case of accidents he always took his mom
He's the all American bullet-headed saxon mother's son.
All the children sing

Hey Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?

Deep in the jungle where the mighty tiger lies
Bill and his elephants were taken by surprise
So Captain Marvel zapped in right between the eyes
All the children sing

Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?

The children asked him if to kill was not a sin
Not when he looked so fierce, his mother butted in
If looks could kill it would have been us instead of him
All the children sing

Hey, Bungalow Bill
What did you kill
Bungalow Bill?

4. What a weasel...
It's so pathetic... Yes, Bill, I'm sure you are 'looking out' for her... to protect her from the crazy radicals in TX...

News flash, Bill: The only crazy radical in TX hopped a plane to Idaho!

:mad:

The usual "I know best" pompous ass, O'Reilly. Rowley was having none of it though, bless her heart! Hah!

8. 89%?
Methinks the number is much higher. I think he gets less than a 5 share, which means under 5% of the televisions being watched at that moment are tuned to his show. I think the number is more like 98% of america doesn't care what he has to say.
