in case you did know it Bill.. we all know the "right" are the
purveyors of misinformation more than the "left"

Go to hell Bill.

We also know you have never had any respect for accurate news or
debate.

Go to hell Bill....and take Ailes and Hannity and Malkin and Coulter
with you. The country will be better off without you.

If ABC is smart Rosie will anchor a program against Leno and
Letterman and Kimmel too.

O'Reilly Attacks The View's O'Donnell Factor

O'Boy.

Rosie O'Donnell was sucked into the No Spin Zone Thursday when Fox
News host Bill O'Reilly questioned whether ABC should fire the morning
chat maven over a posting on her personal blog and remarks she made on
The View concerning the recent capture of 15 British sailors by the
Iranian military.

On her Website, O'Donnell alleged that the British strayed into
Iranian waters on purpose to help bolster the United States'
government's increasingly hostile position toward the Middle Eastern
nation.

"False flag operations are covert operations conducted by governments,
corporations, or other organizations, which are designed to appear as
if they are being carried out by other entities," the coiner of the
phrase "cutie-patootie" wrote Wednesday.

Then, in a clip from The View replayed on The O'Reilly Factor
Thursday, O'Donnell seemingly expresses sympathy for the very people
the Bush administration (and, largely, Fox News) is trying to convince
the American public need to be defeated.

"I think they've been dehumanized to the point where they're not
people. They're just the enemy," O'Donnell said. "They're terrorists.
They have two choices, faith or fear. Faith or fear. That's your
choice.

"You can walk through life believing in the goodness of the world or
walk through life afraid of anyone who thinks differently than you and
try to convert them to your way of thinkingÂ…Don't fear the terrorists.
They're mothers and fathers."

Well, no one's going to tell millions of red-blooded Americans not to
fear the terrorists on O'Reilly's watch.

"'Don't fear the terrorists.' The question is what should ABC do?" the
right-wing pundit inquired of his guests-via-satellite, fellow Fox
News analyst Bernard Goldberg and American University scholar Jane
Hall. "Remember, ABC fired Bill Maher [who hosted Politically
Incorrect at the time] after he said the 9/11 killers had courage."

O'Reilly went on to suggest that the situation over at The View is
rapidly deteriorating now that the show has O'Donnell's vehemently
liberal rhetoric dominating the relatively low-key conservative
opining of cohost Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and that O'Donnell's
politicizing is contributing to a ratings downturn. (After
contributing to a ratings uptick with that big to-do with Donald
Trump, of course.)

Hall, in turn, suggested that O'Donnell might be the only talk show
host on broadcast TV right now representing the left wing so fervently
on a daily basis.

ABC "said the show represents as variety of viewpoints," O'Reilly
said. "There's a platform for free and open exchange of ideas. I don't
believe that to be true. I don't believe Ann Coulter will get a
program any time soon on ABC."

Ouch. Being compared to Ann Coulter is just no fun at all.

"Here you have young Elisabeth Hasselbeck getting hectored by Rosie
O'Donnell and Joy Behar, two of the most far-left women in the United
States of America. But it's beyond that," O'Reilly continued.

"These women aren't speaking for themselves. And I think both of you
understand what I'm saying. They're spitting out the worst propaganda
that is fed to them by far-left American haters on the net."

"And that's why I say, Bill, that the real danger is that they're
mainstreaming this hateful nonsense. That's what this is about,"
Goldberg said, but then he split with Hall, who said that she didn't
think O'Donnell had the right to go on TV and spout off irresponsibly.
"That's not a First Amendment right," Hall said.

"Of course she does," Goldberg insisted. "Well, it is. It is. Joy
Behar has every right to go on the air and compare Donald Rumsfeld to
Hitler and I have every right to say I'll never watch that show even
if somebody has gun to my head. And that's what more American people
should do. They should say these people are not intelligent and they
don't make any sense so don't watch."

Just so long as no one's going overboard with his metaphors here.

Meanwhile, Friday's installment of The View was taped before the Rosie
episode of The O'Reilly Factor aired, so we'll have to wait to hear
what, if anything, O'Donnell has to say about O'Reilly, who was a
guest on the a.m. chatfest in October. (O'Donnell did interrupt a lot,
but she raised her hand before speaking more than usual.)

Well, The View sure has been mixing it up in 2007.

At least O'Reilly knows he has an ally in Donald Trump, who told David
Letterman in an interview set to air Friday on The Late Show that,
although he doesn't wholly blame Barbara Walters for siding with
O'Donnell during their Miss USA-fueled feud, the veteran newswoman isÂ…
fired, if you will.

"Barbara did not speak the truth and I didn't like it," Trump said.
"She was trying to protect Rosie. She just said things that weren't so
and therefore I sort of wrote her off my list. She's off the list."

"Rosie, as you know, went crazy at the prospect of my giving [Miss USA
2006 Tara Conner] a second chance," Trump continued.

"Rosie is sort of taking over the show from Barbara," he said. "It was
sad to watch what was happening. But Rosie, they say, almost beat her
up in the green room, and Barbara went out and did things she
shouldn't do. I felt badly for Barbara. In a way, I feel that Barbara
was just trying to keep the whole thing together. I don't totally
blame her."

A rumble in the green room? Wait until O'Reilly gets a load of that
one.
