Wow. I actually may tune in to Bill O'Reilly's show on Monday

Monday Richard Dawkins will be on O'Reilly.

I really would love to see Dawkins put that smug asshole in his place. I'm probably just setting myself up for a disappointment though. Dawkins will start saying things that makes perfect sense, but O'Reilly will interrupt him with fallacious arguments and non sequiturs, and inevitably end the interview with "cut his mike."

I can hope for the best though; Dawkins intelligence and presence demands a certain respect which will make it more difficult for O'Reilly to bully.

1. Dawkins will be called "Nutty" because he dares to think differently than O'Reilly...
You're right...O'Reilly most likely won't let him complete a sentence. If he gets enough of that type of crap, I would hope Dawkins would just get up, take off his mic and walk out.

Too bad Billo's show is taped. It would be great to see something like that live.

3. Dawkins is too good a debater though to get sucked into that trap I think.

He'll sit there quietly and lets Bill-o rant away and look more and more dumb. Then he will quickly carve him up into pieces. Although you know Bill is sometimes just too damn dumb to know when he is beaten; although Dawkins does not have much patience for that and won't get into an infantile shouting match.

That's usually where the "cut his mike" enters the picture.

2. OMG!!! Why would you wish to watch that?!?!?!?
Everyone KNOWS that by allowing one's brain to hear the words of a Athestic-SP one is doomed to become the next mass murder!

Why if it wasn't for the teaching of a billions year old earth (YEAH RIGHT!) there would be no VT shootings!
