It's an amazing day when Bill O'Reilly shows more respect for Clinton than the so-called Democrats

[Beausoir]

do at DU.

Let's hear from the DEMOCRATIC candidate bashers!

[Zhade]

1. He ignored her documented lies, that's not our fault.

NT!

[featherman]

3. He's backing Clinton versus Obama so this is his way of "helping"

Are so many DUer's simply unaware that the GE has begun and all the GOP enablers are out there to demean and diminish Democrats?

[Kittycat]

4. Maybe if she was acting like a Democrat - she'd get a little respect.

[rodeodance]

22. gee, about half the voters respect her. grow up.

[dugggy]

29. You mean she is too much of a centrist?

and not enough extreme left wing?

[Webster Green]

32. Extreme left wing?

You sound exactly like a repuke. :smoke:

[dugggy]

98. and exactly like a centrist democrat, a.k.a. Reagan democrat

and am firmly a democrat no matter how you slice it.
Ours is an inclusive party in case nobody told you.

[cascadiance]

42. You're confusing DLC so-called "centrism" with corporatism which is what they really are...

all about!

[cornermouse]

58. At least she has a plan.

I've had enough visions and feel good talk from the White House over the last 8 years. I want something more solid. ...Like plans to get us out of this mess.

[me b zola]

78. She has a plan alright. A plan to continue republican economic policies

In the 'American Dream Accounts' which Hillary heads for the DLC, she is pushing for the same privatization of social security that bush* was pushing a year and a half ago, before even the republican voters wanted no part of. What is interesting is that the dlc site even used the same phrase as the republicans, 'personal savings account' until another DUer and myself began posting about it, now that language has been scrubbed. But do read what the dlc has left standing regarding social security--"American Dream Accounts"--and tell me that you don't see the same republican plan.

http://www.dlc.org/ndol_ci.cfm?contentid=253993&kaid=86&subid=194
http://www.ppionline.org/ndol/ndol_ci.cfm?kaid=85&subid=108&contentid=253475

It sounds as though Hillary also has a foreign policy plan that mimics the neocon foreign policy. Obliterate Iran? The same Iran whose outpouring of love and support for the US following 9/11 was met with hostility by the neocons?

Yeah, Hillary has a plan alright.

[cornermouse]

86. For starters, I don't think she's going to obliterate anyone or

anything.

You guys already kicked the people who had good health care plans out of the race so I'm going to take that to mean that you don't actually put much importance on health care for the nation. Same thing with those who were in favor of getting out of the middle east immediately if not sooner. That said, of who's left, Hillary has the better health care plan and I don't find Obama's policy of warm fuzzies and reaching out to the republicans comforting.

Iran whose outpouring of love and support following 9/11? Hello reality? They figured that we were stunned and surprised and that they could use 9/11 to get something they wanted.

[me b zola]

91. Do we need another "leader" who uses the power of the US

to bully other nations? How is saber rattling helpful to our national security and/or the process of bringing peaceful resolution to ME conflicts? Even bush*s Saudi buddies were concerned at Clinton's 'obliteration' comment because just the words themselves have negative consequences.

Republican economic policies dictate our foreign policies, and it sounds as though Hillary at best only wants cosmetic changes to our foreign policies from what the republicans are doing.

So what do you think of Hillary's plan on social security? Were you aware that she has been quietly pimping the same plan that bush* had been attempting to force on US? Hillary's official policy is worlds apart from what she tells people when she is on the campaign trail.

[PoliticalAmazon]

93. DO you know any Iranians? They were devastated after 9/11. ...

...What a hateful and ignorant thing to say.

If Hillary didn't mean it, then she screwed up twice: once for making such a stupid threat, and a second time for making a threat she didn't intend to carry out.

Bush Jr repeatedly pulled the same thing, and it ruined our standing internationally.

And this is the one who's ready on Day #1? To do WHAT? Continue the destruction of America that Bush Jr started?

[tabasco]

80. She had a plan for health care, she had a Democratic Congress,

a Democratic President, and she failed.

H. Clinton is a known failure.

[CakeGrrl]

5. It was a not-so-amazing day when so-called Democrat Clinton

showed more respect for John McCain than her fellow Democrat Obama.

Wait, make that "days", since she expressed it a few times.

[virtualobserver]

6. aren't you even a LITTLE suspicious when O'Reilly is kind to Hillary

Shouldn't there be alarm bells going off in your head?

[rodeodance]

25. Obama would have been stuttering away and looking like a deer with

headlights in his eyes. like he did at the last debate.


billo asked losts of gotcha questions and all you can do is knock her down for being strong.

[virtualobserver]

28. face it......the right wing wants Hillary.....

[rodeodance]

38. nah--they want the weaker one--that would be Obama

[virtualobserver]

40. no evidence to support your theory...plenty of evidence supporting the opposite

[emilyg]

49. I heard that today on CNN.

[WillyToad]

66. Another Clinton presidency is their worst nightmare

Anyone stupid enough to fall for it needs a brain transplant. Where have you been the last 15 years?

[moodforaday]

94. The same O'Reilly

who famously said "Shut up!" to the son of a fallen soldier, who dared criticize the Iraq war - and then cut his mike and kicked him out.

The same guy now "respects" Hillary. What a hoot.

[JI7]

7. Hillary has shown more respect to the pukes than Democrats

[EFerrari]

8. You've got Bill now. What do we matter? lol

50. You seem like a crude person.

[Texas Hill Country]

76. agreed, crass statement.

[FrenchieCat]

10. Hillary showed more deference to Bill O'lielly and she does for

Barack Obama and his supporters.

That's say more about her and the company she keeps and it does about Obama and his pastor.

Oh, and by the way, this is Bill's audience. Hope they enjoyed their leader's softball interview with the newfound Goddess of Peace.

[HooptieWagon]

11. yes, pukes respect a candidate who gets in the gutter and flings shit

Real dems don't, we've been complaing about puke tactics for how many years?

[americanstranger]

You give what you get.

I'm part of the 'activist base,' and she threw me under the Hilldozer.

When she's ready to accept my wing of the democratic party as more than an annoyance, then we'll talk about respect, k?

- as

[LakeSamish706]

12. Judging by your profile you are a long time DU member and I will give you Kudos for that.... BUT...

WTF was Hillary doing on with Bill O'Reilly in the first place? I am not pleased that Obama agreed to go on Fox either. But Hillary has pretty much shown her true colors, or it could be desperation (by going on with Bill O'Reilly). That sure as hell is not going to bye her any votes with the SD's let me tell ya.... I just want her the F*** off the stage so we can get on with beating the shit outta McCain...

[MADem]

14. The same thing OBAMA was doing with Chris Wallace on FOX NEWS SUNDAY last week.

And on HANNITY before that.

Reaching a wider audience of VOTERS.

Anyone who is stupid enough to demand that everyone who votes for you must agree with you ideologically on every frigging issue is not going to get many votes. FAUXSNOOSE has a big market share that includes conservative Democrats and a massive swathe of independents, as well as disenchanted Republicans.

Why not tap that market? Only an idiot would ignore it. And neither Clinton NOR Obama are idiots.

[virtualobserver]

18. I think that you should draw the line at not visiting men who sexually harass women...

even if they have a highly rated show.

[MADem]

39. Oh, please. That's as lame as you can get. How about Obama going

on the show of a punk who doesn't honor his father? Only a total shit head is mean to their very old man like that! And I'm sure we could dig up some terribly scandalous nonsense on Hannity, too, if you'd like.

What will you say when O'Reilly interviews Obama? How will you justify it? Will that be "Oh...it's uh, DIFFERENT?"

Please.

She reached a LARGE audience tonight. Deal with it.

[virtualobserver]

43. Sexual Harassment is in a league of its own....it isn't just rudeness

[MADem]

And what will you say when Old Dildo interviews Obama, hmmm?

That is the question.

[virtualobserver]

47. If he does, I'll be disappointed.

[LakeSamish706]

23. "I am not pleased that Obama agreed to go on Fox either." And so it goes....

Fox noise is so over the top... None of these Democratic candidates should agree to be on this repulsive station IMO.

[MADem]

41. They are reaching out to voters who watch Faux.

Let me tell you, in the course of my life, I find myself in oddlot parts of the country every so often. In many of these places, there is ONLY Faux and CNN. MSNBC does not have full penetration into many markets.

And in some places around the globe, there is ONLY Faux--like some military installations.

You can't get your message out if you don't go to the voters. And the voters are watching that station.

[SeaLyons]

73. ...

:thumbsup:

Go Hillary!!

[JuniperLea]

88. Jesus Fucking Christ

Welcome to ignore... I'm so sick of seeing hypocrisy from DUers... fuck this shit.

[notfullofit]

96. I do believe she was

widening her exposure.
I thought she came across very well and showed billo what she's really made of.
She was a class act and we should ALL be proud of her.

[Kokonoe]

13. It seems to be working out for her.

[KittyWampus]

15. some people are such tools.

[Demobrat]

16. So the Pukes are lining up behind Hillary.

Fatboy himself exhorts his listeners to go out and vote for her. O'Reilly gives her a forum. And this is a good thing? Hello - could it possibly be because they would prefer to run against her than Obama? Just possibly maybe?

[virtualobserver]

26. and when the leader of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy who accused you of murder....

suddenly begins to see your good qualities.............

[rodeodance]

17. Hillary did well up against billo. Some have a problem with that. then again those

that have a problem with Hillary going well are the same ones who smear her constantly anyway.

[americanstranger]

20. .

- as

[cliffordu]

19. Sorry - BillO has shown more respect for dems than SHE has.

[Buzz Clik]

68. That's a sad truth.

[Tribetime]

21. That's because are focused on Obama

check out the story at Politico. "GOP gives Clinton the Silent Treatment" www.politico.com/ 2nd story down

[patrice]

24. Why are we supposed to put our principles, our very identities, aside for "our" "leaders"?

I know everyone says the two candidates are virtually the same, but they ARE different in one important respect.

Hillary Clinton SOLD us into WAR - BECAUSE - she intended to run for pResident . . .

and apparently couldn't think of any more creative ways to show that she is "strong on defense" than to support an at LEAST 50:50 chance that INNOCENT people, thousands and thousands of them, would suffer and DIE, and the threat of revenge terrorism would increase exponentially because of what we were getting ready to do, and all Americans would work harder and longer for less and less because of war debt. Yeah, she didn't vote FOR War, but her vote did show that she accepted the chance of these things happening, and saw it as an acceptable risk to take in order to run for pResident.

ARE WE SUPPOSED TO IGNORE THIS FACT???

Really, I'm SORRY the party ran the wrong candidate; we're trying to do something about that.

[Wind Dancer]

27. Wonder why!

You might want to think about the reasons Bill O'Reilly is treating her with such kindness! :crazy:

[clovis29]

37. That disturbes me as well n/t

[apocalypsehow]

30. What's amazing is the utter gall of HRC boosters who now think Bill O'Reilly is just swell.

What's next? You gonna go out and "get Hannitized"? Start referring to yourselves as "dittoheads"? Hell, why don't you just mosey on over to JimRob's place and be done with it?

[polmaven]

74. Please show me where ANYONE

here has said "Bill O'Reilly is just swell."....!!! What an idiotic statement.

As far as getting "Hannitized", have the supporters of Senator Obama gone to that condition? He was on that show with that morAn. Did he become "Hannitized"?

Grow up!

[Downtown Hound]

31. Why wouldn't O'Lielly laud her?

She's a warmongering, spiteful, hateful, vindictive bitch, just like him.

[notfullofit]

97. With friends like this

we sure as hell don't need enemies.

[tigereye]

99. this could go, IMHO

[swishyfeet]

33. I'm not suprised - their objectives are currently the same

for now.

[jasmine621]

34. It scares me to think that IF Obama become President how his supporters

would act if he ever took an action contrary to their point of view. If they behave toward him and others the way they behave toward the Clintons, the country will be in bad shape.

[patrice]

35. At least if he ever has to do such a thing, he will be OURS,

not some queen, bred to the role since she was a kid, in the pay of those who regard people as fodder http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x5749919 , crowned and shoved down our throats by those who think they know what's best for us better than we do.

[emilyg]

51. Last week they wanted to join Wright's church

this week they hate him.

[ampad]

Dupe sorry

[ampad]

36. What's next

You gonna start calling Bush a respectable human being when he comes out and declaring Hillary the nominee while putting Obama down? Knowing some of you Hillary supporters you will as long as he throws in a nice dig at Obama. At this point when your showing an ounce of respect for Bill the woman harasser I would not be surprised. You have to step back and ask yourself why in the hell all these right wingers are in love with Hillary when in the 90's they hunted her husband down like a dog and laughed all the way to the Bush presidency. I mean common sense has just gone out the window with some of you.

[Eric Condon]

53. That wouldn't surprise me at all. These people hate Obama far more than they hate Bu$h.

Why else would they be so blindly following a warmonger just like him?

[smiley_glad_hands]

44. Its an amazing day when a Democrat enables rethugs on TV. eom

[gcomeau]

45. That *should* be telling you something.

As for this: "Let's hear from the DEMOCRATIC candidate bashers!"

I doubt Hillary will respond to your request to hear from her as I don't think she has an account, but you can always hold out hope that she'll drop by and tell us about how Obama is somehow linked to Hamas through his freaking church, like she tried to do on a fucking nationally televised debate. But yeah, lecture US some more about the evils of bashing fellow Democrats while supporting the candidate who justifies her campaign tactics by appealing to "What Would Karl Rove Do".

(Which is, by the way, a hint about why O'Reilly might be more inclined to be friendly to Clinton than we are. Think hard, it'll come to you eventually...)

[casus belli]

46. Why wouldn't he? She's helping spread their message. n/t

[Triana]

48. She isn't a Democrat - she calls herself one but her behavior is purely Republican

FURTHERMORE, there has been more than one instance wherein Republicans have openly stated that they WANT Hillary to be the nominee because she's the weaker candidate and they know they can beat her. Repigs have been frothing at their rabid muzzles to go after Clinton in an election. The Rush Limpballs Repigs are going to vote for her in Indiana in droves - and that is why.

Read much?

[Jed Dilligan]

52. See, that's exactly the problem.

Clinton and her minions act like she and the party are one and the same; disloyalty to her is disloyalty to the party. That pisses off a lot of people.

[Lady-Damai]

54. Hehehehehe.....Bill O'Reilly is such a great guy!

The same guy that said "I just wish Katrina had only hit the United Nations building, nothing else, just had flooded them out, and I wouldn't have rescued them." --on his radio show, Sept. 14, 2005


My favorite O'Reilly quote,

“The children of America have seen with their own eyes that liars can win and cheaters can prosper. They know that our nation will accept venal behavior and, in some cases, reward it with tremendous wealth and power. So why wouldn't they lie, cheat and steal?”

This describes Hillary Clinton and George W. Bush in every way.

[Hamlette]

55. she earned it

from Bill and from us

[Life Long Dem]

56. Nice little Hillary, Hillary nice. No bash Hillary.

[Beacool]

85. That cartoon applies more to the fans of the empty suit.

Keep drinking the Kool-Aid......

[bowens43]

57. What's really amazing is that you don't understand what that means.

the republicans want to run against hillary.

[bklyncowgirl]

59. Hillary's new best friends: O'Reilly, Limbaugh & Scaife

What's wrong with this picture folks?

[quantass]

60. Clearly the Repubs are ready for her if she is nominated -- look at them all so cozy to her...LOL!

Not good hillbots..

[Yossariant]

61. Those so-called Democrats are fundies.

They are as blind and fanatical as the most fervent bible thumpers.

Obama-worshippers.

[kevinbgoode]

62. It's an amazing day when Democrats supporting Hillary

not only embrace the endorsements of right-wing political pundits, but lovingly snuggle up to the Right while claiming to support working people. How more obvious could it be when Rush, O'Lielly, Ann Coulter all start crooning the Hillary tune?

[npincus]

63. Whaat did you say about Dems bashing Dems?

[npincus]

69. *crickets*

[mmonk]

64. They sound alike (Billo and Hillary) when talking about Obama

and what they push as important. That's the part that's amazing.

[Vinca]

65. Bill wants Hillary as the Democratic candidate - most of us don't. nt

[Buzz Clik]

67. Why wouldn't he? She's replaying Bush's 2000 campaign.

She's making insane promises of rebates and tax breaks. She's running a filthy campaign against her opponent. She's demonstrating that she is willing to say and do anything and screw anyone to get elected. She's threatened to nuke Iran.

Hell, yes, Bill loves her ... today.

Do you think that her love affair with the rightwing lunatics will continue if she gets the nomination? Do you think Scaife will continue to admire her, or will he continue with the journalistic slaughter?

Get a fucking clue.

[BlueIdaho]

70. Its an amazing day when Clinton has more in common with O'Reilly than the Democratic party.

God Bless US Rich People!

[dionysus]

71. it's an amazing day on DU when shillbots are praising billo...

[SoonerPride]

72. DISTRACTION

not interested

[Texas Hill Country]

75. this is the sad truth

[burythehatchet]

77. so-called Democrat here - Hillary and her campaign and her Hillaroids suck ass. n/t

[backscatter712]

79. The real Democrats know Hillary is a damned fraud. n/t

[nomaco-10]

81. Did she pass his litmus test.....

Pinhead or Patriot? Left Wing Loon or Stand Up Guy? Murika Hater or Solid Citizen? Did he tell her how much he respected her for not hiding under her desk?

Inquiring minds want to know, cause I really care what billo thinks of all our dem candidates.

[Bread and Circus]

82. If you are sincere then that means you have some trust in O'Reilly which I find kind of laughable.

Do you really, honestly think he's showing her "respect" for sincere, well-meaning reasons? If not, then how could you post this thread? If so, I really have to question your insight.

[JuniperLea]

90. That is such bullshit

Why put words in the OP's post?

[polmaven]

83. After reading some of the responses

I MUST believe that Senator Obama would feel nothing but shame about some of the things SOME of his supporters are saying, allegedly ON HIS BEHALF!

The utter hate and venom being spewed is not worthy of Senator Obama.

[Arugula Latte]

84. Bwa ha ha! Funny post! ... Gee, I wonder why O'Lielly is helping Hillary...

What could the answer be? What could it be? ... He couldn't have an anti-Democratic agenda, could he? ... Naaaaah ...

[JuniperLea]

87. Seriously

Just when you think DU has sunk as low as it goes.

[JuniperLea]

89. I'm really disgusted with the lot of them...

This is hard ball with the big boys and the whiners are on my last nerve. How can you fault a politician for wanting to be on the most widely viewed political program in the United States? How can you blame a candidate for going after bi-partisan support?

No one is "praising" Bill O... jeez! They can sure stretch out pretty far to grasp those stupid straws!

[PoliticalAmazon]

92. It's a sad day when Hillary treats O'Reilly better than she does voters in her own party....

...SPare me the "poor wittle Hillary" BS.

Hillary has repeatedly insulted Obama supporters. What she's getting, she's earned. Unfortunately for her, it will be paid off with interest.

[dana_b]

95. yes, and evidently now we're all "elitists". n/t
