O'Reilly Needs to SHUT UP! Plz delete if dupe...
But then we knew that. I do think he, Coulter and the Savage Weiner need to clean up their acts and stop wishing violence on those they disagree with. Now O'Reilly talks death for Kevin Barrett, a professor who teaches about 9/11 conspiracy. Enough is enough!!! When is Fox Channel going to become a responsible broadcasting channel?

1. Fox will never become a responsible broadcasting channel..they
are part of the neo-con agenda and probably put in place years ago just for the take over of our country...

2. Someone with "standing" is going to have to sue their asses
off!
Hate speech is the lifeblood of the republican party and it's going to get worse until they are hurt in the one place they'll feel it. $$$$$

3. They want to kill us...we just want them to go away...
The difference between Conservatives and Liberals? Here it is in a nutshell. The worst of you (not naming any names, but it rhymes with Span Holter) calls for the KILLING of liberals, and the destruction of those organizations brave enough to espouse a viewpoint other than that of conservatism.

She thinks we deserves to die. Or says she does.

Others just want to throw us in prison. For holding a different viewpoint from their own. Is that the America YOU want to live in?

Some conservatives consider Michael Moore the worst among the liberals. For making a movie espousing a different point of view. Did he suggest we should kill ANYONE? No. He suggests INVESTIGATING what may be termed Gross Incompetence, if nothing else.

The worst thing certain writers have suggested should be done to conservatives is to send them somewhere else. Anywhere else. Bon Voyage!

If you can't see the contrast here, and what's wrong with the whole picture, you're beyond saving.

Please exit the country immediately. There's a few conservative religious governments in the Middle East that would love your drive and determination to kill those who don't agree with you. If calling for the death of heretics (or infidels) is something that appeals to you--you have more in common with the terrorists than WE ever will.

sincerely,

with a sincere one fingered salute,

your neighbor and family member,

the Liberal American.

11. Great post!
I just wish right-wingers would go get counseling.

5. The average age of O'Reilly's audience is 71.
Seriously. If you're not in a nursing home, you should ask yourself why you're bothering to watch O'Reilly.

8. As a 70 yr. old liberal, I don't like what you are suggesting.
You have made a very insensitive and uninformed remark about old people. But, if you care about America and think that the Republican administration has got to go, we are allies where it counts.

6. you got that backwards Bill--it is you who does not have any standards.


...... During his program on 11 July, O'Reilly remarked, "This guy would have been gone at Boston University, my alma mater, in a heartbeat. The Chancellor there, John Silber, would of--would have--this guy'd be in the Charles River floating down, you know, toward the harbor." He implied that allowing Barrett to teach at BU "wouldn't happen" but "at the University of Wisconsin there are no standards. . . . I'm stunned."

9. I don't listen to O'Reilly but I do read the news
as in the link I posted. That's not the point. These talking heads need to be reined in because they go too far.

10. As long as they attract viewers the stations will carry them.
Who is there to "reign" them in? And if there were people there to "reign them in" , how would we be sure that the "good guys" were in charge.

Personally, I keep forgetting that O'Reiley is still on the air. I don't think his popularity is going to continue.

12. But they've crossed the lines of decency!
I think these wishes for death to other Americans is more than the FCC should allow.

By the way, it is "rein" not "reign." Oh please forgive me, I work in a library. I can't help it.

13. I'm not offended by your spelling lesson. That was a dumb error
by me.
