Hi Skinny... you didn't read my post very well.... I think Barney Franks ought to be in Jail personally, along with everyone else on those banking committees. Barney Franks for years, even though not in power, was vociferously extolling the virtues of their corrupt systemics with Fannie and Freddie.
My Rant was against O'Reilly when he gets himself into a bind and whenever anyone questions his "authority" he goes off the tracks. He's also quite misinformed on a lot of topics or if he IS INFORMED he doesn't challenge folks when they make misleading statements.
Bill O'Reilly might be the number one news program, but he along with Sean Hannity and Alan Combs get stuck in these one minded ruts that don't show any mental nimbleness, regardless of their messages.
O'Reilly makes me laugh, he's so full of himself talking to folks about "Well you never came here... you never came to MY SHOW to complain... Blah Blah Blah... etc....
I watch O'Reilly almost daily.... but he can be a buffoon and doesn't challenge... Palin last night had a wonderful opportunity to challenge Biden on Global Warming... and didn't.... Biden said global warming was STRICTLY MAN MADE.... What an idiot.
First off, we are cooler than wer were 10 years ago. Two, Solar conditions are what heat the earth... not carbon dioxide... less than .2% of the atmosphere.... She should have just nailed him with the suns role in global warming and should have gone deeper other than her calm statement that we have cyclical warming and cooling cycles... which she got right.
As for the statement that one should just turn off O'Reilly.... yes, that is the simple way out... the other is to evaluate what he says and measure it, not just swallow it, like it looks many do, and I was also referring to his demeanor.... he's gonna have a stroke someday.... poor fella...
