1. WHOLLY SHIT

PERHAPS THE TIDE IS CHANGING IN AMERICA

[Old and In the Way]

2. I'm listening to O'Reilly on Fresh Air

bragging about how he only tell's the truth and all his detractors spew propaganda. He's bragging about being #1 on the NYT list....guess he'll have to issue a correction.

He really is convinced that his views are right and everyone who disagrees is wrong.....very interesting his spin on VietNam...thought that was wrong, but I guess Iraq is a great war now for him.

Didn't know he registered as a Republican..."he was stunned to find this out".

Accusing Terri of defamation....threatening her. His book is designed to "help" people. He is really pissed off....."this is an unfair interview....and that is the end of the interview"....he then walks out. Fascinating, he can roast his political enemies but he can't take the heat himself....

4. interview shows how much Franken is under his skin

The whole Frankiln-O'reilly thing is just heartwarming to me. I love it so much.

Especially since Franken does such a perfect impression of O'Reilly. Talk about a mismatch, this is like the perfect parable about a bully picking on the wrong guy. :-)

7. "....guess he'll have to issue a correction."

Hehe- that's a good one. O'Reilly making a correction... you made milk shoot out of my nose.

10. He is lying when he says he only tells the truth!

Way to go Al! Thanks for exposing O'Lielly! I also think it is absolutely HILARIOUS to watch that guy whine "unfair interview". The karmic forces are work right now on the right media. Hopefully we are only witnessing the beginning.

Poor, victimized Bill.

[Democat]

3. That's great

O'Reilly and Rush both losing ground.

Too bad Arnold won or this would be a pretty good month to be a Democrat.

[gristy]

5. I know you said developing, but

the published list still shows O'Reilly first.

9. lots of lefties on the list!!!

and 2, count 'e, TWO, wingnut books with the "+" next to them

dumbasses


Who the hell is David Limbaugh anyway?

[Flubadubya]

11. David Limbaugh...

Ack, ack, ack... is Rush's brother. No jive. They had him on CNN the other day pushing his whiny-assed treatise on how Christians in America today are being persecuted and having their religious freedom broached. I almost cried for sympathy of the little dude... NOT!

12. I really suggest listening to the Fresh Air interview

It is stunning, even by O'Lielly's standards (or lack thereof).

This was probably the closest thing he's had to a "friendly" interview ever, and he goes and throws a temper tantrum like the big, self-promoting baby he is because he can't admit when he's wrong. He'd rather come off like a total jackass idiot on national radio than concede a difference of opinion.

Amazing.

6. SHUT UP!!! SHUT UP!!!

eom

[GOPBasher]

8. Hahahaha!!! That's awesome.

That's unbelievable! Franken's book has been out way longer, and he still managed to knock the spinmaster's book out of #1!! Awesome!

13. She *really* won a Peabody award!

'Its 1994 Peabody Award citation credits Fresh Air with "probing questions, revelatory interviews and unusual insights". '

14. she should get another one

this interview was a classic, she should get another Peabody for it. :-)
