O'Reilly takes on Tony Snow, 'You can't win' in Iraq
Edited on Sun Jul-15-07 01:42 AM by RamboLiberal
Fox News' Bill O'Reilly promised his audience "the truth about Iraq" on Thursday, saying that most Americans now feel the war has not been worth the costs, while "the president's argument for sustaining the war is largely theoretical."

O'Reilly turned on his special guest during the segment, White House press secretary Tony Snow, saying, "You can't win ... unless the Iraqi people turn on all the terrorists. And they're not."

O'Reilly said he agreed with the president that defeat in Iraq could harm the US but said that "enough is enough." The populist pundit who, according to his Wikipedia entry hasn't been a registered Republican since 2000, added that the American people are as exhausted by this war as they ultimately were by Vietnam, and also that "the Iraqi government is incompetent and "the people themselves largely ungrateful."

"The whole thing is tragic and depressing, complicated and dangerous," O'Reilly concluded. "After more than four years, Iraq remains a huge stone around America's neck."

3. I call BS!
Bill orally turning on one of Faux's own??? I call Bullshit!

There is no way that either of these fucking LIARS would disagree on anything realted to the BFEE. Bill orally is full of shit. Tony Snow is a piece of shit. Together they are both nothing more than propagandist LIARS!

If they diagreed on anything, it would be whether * should declare martial law before or after they attack Iran.

4. Orally may be the Rove-directed catalyst for Bush's epihany.
On the other hand Billo has never really liked this war and has expressed that many times.-

5. Oh gee Bill, thanks for filling us in. We had no idea the
invasion is and always has been an impossible situation.

But of course you just continue supporting Bush and Cheney.

What a phony.

:eyes:


And my, my, my, Tony Snow's nose grew as long as a carrot with all of those lies he was telling.

6. O'Reilly was a big cheerleader for this war and
a ruthless apologist for the administration up until recently. I wonder what this change of script in the Fox News theater is all about.

7. It's Really Very Simple
USA still in Iraq = catastrophic defeat for Republicans in 2008.

That's what this "change of script" is all about.
