No content here, sorry.
Just happened.

Turned on O'Reilly.

Carville was on. So I listened. Carville made salient points. O'Reilly interrupted. Carville made more salient points. O'Reilly interrupted. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat. Rinse and repeat.

Basically even with a foundational disadvantage (Obama, terrible policy), a debate disadvantage (opponent, network, format), and a ""moderator"" disadvantage (O'Reilly), Carville cleaned up.

O'Reilly needs to geaux the way of Larry Kudlow and quit.

He's gotten progressively worse as the years go by.

You didn't watch the same thing I did. When O'Reily asked Carville what he thought about Americans having second thoughts on Obama in his 2nd term, Carville's response was that the Constitution states we elect a president every 4 years. That was his only response. Carville "cleaned up" on nothing. I really hate the so many people look at my home state & think of him.

What gets me about O'Reilly is the constant barrage of interruptions. He will not let his guests get a word in edgewise! In the end I have a hard time watching him for that reason.

Dude, it was Carville. He is from the great state of LA. And he could clean up Hitler if he wanted to.

I find it hilarious how much people watch Fox while at the same time spit vitriol non-stop about Fox.

Heck, old friend of mine, posts almost daily about the horrors of Fox News on his Facebook.

Reminds me of the line in Private Parts about how the people who hated Howard Stern listened to him longer than people who liked him.

Maybe if all you folks spent less time on Fox their rating would collapse.

He really does suck in most significant ways. In fairness, he actually sets up the debate/argument very clearly and will sometimes allow for the voicing of intelligent opposing view points. You have to wade through a lot of stupid crap to get the decent stuff. Having said that, it's a shame that he's better (more neutral) and more entertaining/informative than the majority of the other news-itorial shows.

worse than the interruptions is what comes out of his mouth.

He's no conservative.

He's an egotistical blowhard who is devoid of principles besides those he can use to try and win a debate.

Look, we have to secure our border first, arright? We all know what's going on here, arright? The folks are out there, they're workin' hard, arright? And these pinheads in Washington are too busy goin' on Jimmy Kimmel to deal with what the folks need, arright? I just want to point out that this show is responsible for the latest round of border talks, because we brought it up here first, arright?

I wanna go to our next segment called "High Times in Colorado," because I just got a report that said Colorado has seen a 900% increase in domestic terrorism since it legalized pot, arright? 900%. That's 1 out of 3 people, arright? Let's go to our resident, uh, expert here from the Marijuana Policy Institute, David Forrester. Arright, so David, you're obviously a big pot head, right? You love smokin' "the doobies," don'tcha?

MR. FORRESTER: Well, Bill, I think one of the things we have to keep in mind here is that --

ARRIGHT, LOOK, ARRIGHT? 900% OF CHILDREN IN COLORADO HAVE CANCER BECAUSE OF ALL THE MARIJUANAS IN THE AIR. WHAT ARE YOU PROPOSING TO DO ABOUT THAT?

MR. FORRESTER: I, I really have to question your numbers, Bill, I think that --

LOOK, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO LISTEN TO THIS PINHEAD, ARRIGHT? CUT HIS MIC. ARRIGHT? Arright. Now let's go to our next segment where I talk down to the female panelists, arright?

Carville is a propagandist.


The no spin zone by definition means NO TALKING POINTS OR SPIN.

I like the fact that he interupts B.S. talking points.

Since he has the top rated cable news show I guess that strategy has been good for him.

Why would we want to hear talking points, sailent or not?

Agree about Bill, but Kudlow was the only good thing on CNBC.

O'reilly is increasingly turning into a smart version of Sean Hannity if such a thing is possible. He needs an intervention before he fully goes off the deep end.
