O'Reilly to Stewart & Colbert: "I'm higher up on Al Qaeda's Death List"
Most Ridiculous Item of the Day

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,215793,00.html



Time now for "The Most Ridiculous Item of the Day." As I mentioned in the "Talking Points Memo", the "Smear O'Reilly machine" cranked up last week, because my book "Culture Warrior" was set to be released. -- The displays were pretty pathetic, the usually blather: saying "O'Reilly lies" -- that kind of thing. Bush lies, O'Reilly lies. Pass the Kool-Aid. Anyway, it's entertaining to see who buys into this propaganda. Rosie O'Donnell is number one:

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

ROSIE O'DONNELL, CO-HOST, ABC'S "THE VIEW": You know the guy grew up in Long Island. He went to school where all the rich Catholic kids went, Chaminade. You know, he always portrays himself as sort of a working class kind of guy. You went to Chaminade, so you aren't that working class.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

Of course, the truth is my father broke his back to send me to Chaminade, a very fine school. Now when I go on "The View" in a few weeks, I'm going to have Rosie read page 92 of "Culture Warrior" -- aloud. And then there is Jon Stewart, always a reliable S-P guy.

(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)

JON STEWART, HOST, COMEDY CENTRAL'S "THE DAILY SHOW": Said Barbara Walters to Bill O'Reilly that he found out that he is on Al Qaeda's hit list. An FBI guy told him he is on Al Qaeda's hit list. And Bill, certainly, I don't want to burst your bubble. I don't want to jump in on this clearly very exclusive place that you hold in American society. But I don't know if you've seen the al Qaeda tapes. We're kind of all on the hit list.

(END VIDEO CLIP)

But you, Jon Stewart, are way, way down on that list. Right before Colbert but after Maher. Ridiculous? You make the call...

Face it, Bill, Al Quaeda doesn't give a sh*t about your petty little "preach to the choir" show. :rofl:

3. he is a lying piece of shit
my boyfriend's dad worked with O'Reilley's dad on Long Island (and attended his funeral) - said no WAY were they blue collar, they were "quite comfortable". He also says O'Reilley Sr was a bully - gee, IMAGINE THAT

5. Oh yeah...I have this Clint Willis book
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 06:30 PM by nam78_two
that dissects all these "culture warriors" that claim they are from "working class" backgrounds and are in touch with true americans unlike the librul elites...and Bill O's dad was a frickin' accountant or something :eyes:
Same with Coulter-forget the specifics but she hailed from one of those affluent suburbs and went to law school at UoM-one of the most expensive law schools and they don't have financial aid for those programs....
working class my ass :eyes:

12. An OReilly major tactic when mentioning the other guy first
Edited on Tue Sep-26-06 06:33 PM by JustFiveMoreMinutes
"Description of Poisoning the Well

"This sort of "reasoning" involves trying to discredit what a person might later claim by presenting unfavorable information (be it true or false) about the person. This "argument" has the following form:"


U"nfavorable information (be it true or false) about person A is presented.
Therefore any claims person A makes will be false."

"This sort of "reasoning" is obviously fallacious. The person making such an attack is hoping that the unfavorable information will bias listeners against the person in question and hence that they will reject any claims he might make. However, merely presenting unfavorable information about a person (even if it is true) hardly counts as evidence against the claims he/she might make. This is especially clear when Poisoning the Well is looked at as a form of ad Homimem in which the attack is made prior to the person even making the claim or claims"
