"You've probably noticed that opinion pollsters go out of their way to include as many morons as possible in surveys ... I think it's dangerous to inform morons about what their fellow morons are thinking. It only reinforces their opinions. And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them." -- Scott Adams

In other words: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  ;)

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." -- Upton Sinclair

"Hitler is gone, but if the majority of our fellow citizens are more susceptible to the slogans of fear and race hatred than to those of peaceful accommodation and mutual respect among human beings, our political liberties remain at the mercy of any eloquent and unscrupulous demagogue." -- S. I. Hayakawa

He is on the Fox News channel as a commentator not a newscaster. He is neither the head of newscasting nor is he the editor of the newscasts.

He is still a talking head that is supposed to be presenting the truth in reporting the news. He failed; epically. And he did so on a NEWS formatted program and within print format within his book.

How you guys are so willing to give this guy a pass, after calling for Brian Williams head over something NONE of those involved can remember with any level of clarity or accuracy, is astounding!  :spooked:

I did not call him out on it nor did any other republican, tea party person, or conservative, it was the soldiers who were there with him who called him out. O'Reilly's program is an opinion program where both sides are given a chance to talk not just one. He comments on things going on at the first of the show he does not give a newscast. He called Bush out for things he thought were wrong just like he does Obama but Obama doesn't like to be disagreed with 'cause he is "special" so he goes after anyone who dares disagree where Bush took it like a man and didn't try to stifel any and all opposition.

A suggestion for ya'll.

Seems like that's the source for O'Reilly's "facts"; among others. . .

Ironic that you posted it too!  :rotfl:

What's funny is you guys repeating the things you're told by the media without actually checking things out. I believe the words that fit here are closed minded.

Not much danger of that happening anyway. I don't watch Faux News. I demand a higher level of accuracy and accountability from my news sources.

We could have said the same thing when you were calling for Williams' nuts on a platter.
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Show me where we called for that. Show me where anyone on Fox News called for that. I don't want "they said" I want video proof where the person said it.

You should go back and read some of Henry's vitriol on this thread.
