O'Reilly Was A Buffoon Last Night & Hillary Was Just Pathetic
Edited on Fri May-02-08 02:28 PM by JimGinPA
I didn't realize before how genuinely stupid he was before last night as I've never watched more than minutes of him at a time before. Oh, I knew he was ignorant and egotistical and on the wrong side of every issue, but the fact he is that stupid really surprised me. The fact he has such a large audience is really telling. But I digress...

Last night he offered false premise after false premise, as if they were undeniable facts. Hillary, rather than argue the validity of his assertions, argued her position in regard to those nonsensical averments. At one point he was going to try give her a "quiz" question about the "primary haven" for the Taliban, but he backed off saying she didn't have to answer. She then tried to say there was a network along the Afghani-Pakistan border and he quickly said "No, do you know where the command and control of the Taliban is?". She tried to turn it around by asking where he thought it was, and he declared it was Quetta. Then she try to say that wasn't the only place and they were spread out along the border he said "No, the command and control is in Quetta" she just relented, as if this moron had the inside information a senator on the Armed Services wouldn't know. Un-fucking-believable!

In my opinion it was a very poor performance and unfortunately I'll never get those two hours back I wasted watching that tripe.

5. Desperate
She's gotta find votes wherever she can get them! Even if that means appearing on that sorry excuse for an American's show. I can only hope Barack stays clear of that show...but now that the door has been opened...I wouldn't be surprised if he had to make an appearance now.

17. she dominated him on taxes
she made him look like a fool over his false suggestion that taxes were lower in the 50's. She educated a lot of Fox viewers and eloquently defended the important liberal principle of progressive taxation, on a network that calls that idea "socailism."

19. That Was On The Night Before...
And she merely stroked his ego about his making so much money. I really doubt she "educated" any Faux viewers.
