Walpurgis Night

lots of people.  I thought she did a great job, and more people watch his show than any other show.  The hilarious part is watching bill rant and rave on his show now about how he's crushed MoveOn's extortion scheme.  haha

what does that even mean.

[elpollodiablo]

I can't believe I missed this

[FreddyKnuckles]

Bill O'Reilly thinks that MoveOn threatened the Democratic Candidates that they would withdraw support and funding if they interviewed on Fox.

[Andrew_TSKS]

oh wow. thanks for telling me, i've been confused for the past several days about that.

[elpollodiablo]

MoveOn never supported Clinton anyway tho, did they? They've been on the Hope Train for the duration

[dieblucasdie]

Nah, they don't technically support either, they've done some pro-Obama stuff and some pro-Clinton stuff, but  they've been spending most of their energy attacking McCain.

[Andrew_TSKS]

not true, we took a vote a few months ago and decided to endorse obama.

i'm not making any of that sentence up, not even the "we" part.

[elpollodiablo]

Yeah, D gets the MoveOn emails and I knew they'd endorsed him.

[FreddyKnuckles]

its hilarious.  "They threatened to HURT anyone who came on my show.  HURT! THATS EXTORTION! THESE LEFT WING... I MEAN FAR LEFT WING" etc. etc.

In other news.  Obama this morning said he's looking forward to appearing on o'reilly and just needs to fit it into is schedule.

[Andrew_TSKS]

if i was a democrat running for president i would totally go on o'reilly. probably would be totally unable to take him seriously if he got huffy, but he was restrained with hillary clinton, so i'm assuming he will be with obama as well.

[FreddyKnuckles]

yeah, when bill is on his game, the man can give a tough but fair interview.  I think he was so congenial because he didn't want to screw himself out of future interviews with candidates by being a prick.  Because Bill fancies himself fair and level-headed, he couldn't exactly sit there and scream random bile at her.

Obama could be different though.  The Republican machine is working hard to try and screw him out of the primary, which makes me think the obama interview will be more bile/less fairness.  Bill has been harping on this weather underground/Wright/gun-clinging comment thing, and you know he just despises rev wright.
