Bill O’Reilly Destroys Barney Franks

  1. I’m normall a big FOX news fan but they’re pulling an MSNBC. There is no guarantee or provision in the bailout to force the firms to use the funds they receive to extend credit to the US economy! Fox News won’t cover this subject. Ask them why at: yourcomments@foxnews.com We have to defeat this disastrous legislation. Check my site SandySays1.wordpress.com
    for some tools to fight it.


  2. So what did anyone learn from that exchange? Nothing. O’Reilly did his trademarked rant and tried to bully Frank into shutting up. (And when that sophisticated journalistic technique doesn’t work for him on other interviews, he just cuts the guest/victim mic anyway.) Yelling down the opposition is exactly the kind of crap fascists throughout history have done because fascists believe no one has the right to oppose them so they don’t want to argue or debate, they just want the other side to shut up. Unfortunately for O’Reilly, we are not yet a fascist state so that whole tantrum just came of as childish and, as Frank said, boorish. Destroyed Frank? Maybe if O’Reilly had actually made a factual point that contradicted him he might have, but he did not.

    Seems that ‘conservatives’ think all we should do about the economic disaster is fire a few people tangentially connected with it and just carry on the same. That might make the ‘red meat’ cons satisfied, but anyone with half a brain realizes those losers in Washington need to take drastic legislative steps to protect the wealth of this country and just yelling at Barney Franks doesn’t save anyone’s house, pension or anything else.


  3. No, he didn’t. O’ Reilly demonstrated his inability of holding a civil, rational discussion.


  4. Just noticed a pattern developing here. None of Erect Jeff’s exciting little headlines are actually… err… true. They are all just wishful thinking. Let me have a go… “BIDEN DESTROYS PALIN IN DEBATE” “OBAMA EVISCERATES McCAIN IN DEBATE & MAKES HIM LOOK LIKE A CONFUSED, BITTER OLD MAN” “McCAIN’S MEDICAL RECORDS SHOW DOCTORS GIVE HIM ONLY A 38% CHANCE OF LIVING BEYOND 2010″ “PALIN HAS LOWEST IQ OF ANY VICE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE IN RECENT HISTORY (QUAYLE INCLUDED)” “OBAMA SET TO ROUT REPUBLICANS IN 2008 ELECTION”. Wait… Sorry, they’re all true… (look them up.)


  5. I thought he was disgusting! He seemed like a violent hack and I thought for a mintue he had lost his mind–he was completely full of shit and Franks totally exposed his deceptive bullsh*t. But overall I found it juvenile and offensive.
