Bill O’Reilly Is A Pinhead
Bill O’Reilly likes to call people pinheads whenever they say anything that disagrees with him. He’s the real pinhead.
Why is it that republicans who support George Bush think that saying anything bad about him is disrespecting “the office” of president?
US President is an exhalted term that goes way beyond any single person. A statement that is against Bush is not downgrading the value of the presidency.
Instead it’s something that republican supporters of Bush use to hide behind when they have no real response to what is said about Bush.
It’s not the only crutch they use either. Here are some examples you see used regularly.
If you do not support the war in Iraq you are not a patriot.
If you do not support the war in Iraq, you do not support the troops.
If you do not support torture, you are not a patriot.
If you actively oppose the war in Iraq, you are aiding the terrorist and you are a traitor or they say you are giving comfort to the enemy.
If you do not support everything Bush does, you are not a patriot.
I long for the day when republican supporters of Bush have real arguments rather than slogans they use to answer every question.
Stumble it!
These Bushites have their beliefs at heart, despite the realities around them. The dis-connect between their views and the effects of Bushite policy is vast indeed.
How can one live in not only a moral but also illogical vacuum is beyond me-the pathologies are so many..it reduces me to a sort of soul-weary detachment, watching my country commit National Suicide for a Despot!

No doubt Steve. The scary thing is they really believe their own rhetoric.

The logic of the Republican slogan machine is uncanny. People who have never served in the military are calling Iraq War veterans like myself unpatriotic because we are against the war. I was against it in March 2003 and I’m still against it. But I served. Yet these slackers who have never served, some of them younger than I am, who call me unpatriotic for being against the war continue to mouth off and expect others to do their dirty work. The real non-patriots are the military age males who are old enough to serve and are for the war but haven’t yet volunteered. They’re the real pinheads.

Amen and Amen Allen. I think people are seeing through the slogans now with what happened in Iowa indicating that people are ready to change a few things.

This is absolutely the most corrupt administration that I have ever witnessed. Their manipulation of the media, their development of Fox news and talk radio has so many people fooled that it is a national disgrace. The sad thing is that most of the people out there who support this bunch could not come up with a solid opinion if they didn’t have talk radio to tell them what to think!

Yes Gail. Unfortunately the brainwashing is working on so many people. I call it brainwashing because whenever a government is paying journmalists to slant news stories in their favor such as what bush did with the no child left behind initiative and has done with the Iraq war, it’s propaganda and brainwashing. The believers of this are victims who put too much trust in this administration.

I voted for GW Bush (Sorry America - I really screwed up). I was a lifelong Repub. until his admin. turned being Repub. into a waste of politics - so I am now Indep. Dopes like O’Reilly, Hannity, Limbaugh are in the fringe fanatics of the Right. The Left also has fringe fanatics. Most Americans (Right, Indi, or Left) are near the center of the political bell curve and there is very little difference in their personal veiws - but it is the fanatical fringe (squeeky wheels) who get most of the media attention & give politics a bad taste.

The real supporters of President Bush are many. The anti-Bush are in a small minority, and fed by a liberal dumb down media. While the Liberals bitch and moan President Bush gets things done, even during a lame duck year. The new Liberal congress still bitches and moans, and whines. Dear Whiners: go live in a third world country for a year, go live in an Islamic taken over European country for a year. Come back and tell us how bad we have it here. Your compare the character and protection of the office of president between the most scandalous president, ever, Mr. Clinton, and our current president, Mr. Bush and you would have to be blind dumb and just plain out of it not to recognize that Mr. Bush is way above Mr. Clinton. The Iowa returns show again, the character and value standards of the American people. Keep whining, Liberals, and you’ll never control the White House again. Hopesone Ben

Bill O’Reilly is owned By FOX and Fox is owned by the powers behind George Bush. One pinhead begets another pinhead.

People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. I distinctly remember when ole slick willy was lovin on all the ladies he could get to lay out for, or on him thru his eight years while he did not do one thing to protect this country, you pin heads never said a word but rather constantly defended him and his shameful conduct. Plus you thought he was the most wonderful man that ever lived. He did not do one positive thing for this country. It was all reteric. Bill Clinton is who left this country in the mess it is in and left us vulnerable and unprotected from terrorist. The terrorist thought we were to big a cowards to defend ourselves. Boy did they get a wake up call. For all of you panty waists out there that think the terrorist are so wonderful, why don’t you go over there and help them. You flag burning, lilly livered panty waists. I helped defend this country from people like you during the Viet Nam war and heard the same crap out of you whinning liberals then. I get the opinion if the terrorist were to invade this country you would surrender and help them. Get a life and wake up, this country is not for sale as long as We the People of this country who have fought for your sorry liberal tails have a say.So wake up and get a life and DEFEND YOUR COUNTRY and it’s leaders AND STOP TRASHING AMERICA!!!!!!!!!

To Hopesone Ben of the koolaid drinker clan.
Thank you for coming in to verify my post.
Your statement “Come back and tell us how bad we have it here.” proves that bush supporters always say something like that even when it has nothing at all to do with what was said.
Nowhere in my post did I say we had it bad in America, but because I don’t like george bush I must not like it in America.
Bush supporters twist every statement into something that will let them use one of these pat lines. Truly brainwashed. Like pavlov’s dog.
Look into my eyes: If anyone says they don’t like bush you say . . .
And you all follow this to the letter.
Then you say “Your compare the character and protection of the office of president between the most scandalous president, ever, Mr. Clinton, and our current president, Mr. Bush and you would have to be blind dumb and just plain out of it not to recognize that Mr. Bush is way above Mr. Clinton.”
Again, nowhere in my post did I mention bill clinton. But bush supporters are so obsessed with trying to be better than bill clinton they immediately try to compare bush to clinton whenever bush is criticized.
It’s like bush supporters believe bill clinton is the benchmark and being better than bill clinton is the ultimate achievement in life.
Why if the post doesn’t mention clinton, you felt the need to bring him up? A little insecure about answering the statements about bush? Can you defend bush without using any of those phrases and without mentioning clinton?
Even your assumption that if I do not like bush I must be a liberal. You’re wrong on that point just as you were when you said only a few conservatives don’t like bush.
Keep drinking nthe koolaid.

to robert clay. read my last comment to ben and pretend it was to you.
Your statement “you pin heads never said a word but rather constantly defended him and his shameful conduct”
I never defended bill clinton and I’m not a democrat pinhead. You assume I am because I don’t believe george bush is our savior as you do.
You said “Plus you thought he was the most wonderful man that ever lived.”
Nope. I didn’t pinhead. Again you assume something with no facts to back it up.
You said ” He did not do one positive thing for this country.”
Except leave a surplus in the budget rather than a deficit like your savior bush.
Then you wrote: “For all of you panty waists out there that think the terrorist are so wonderful”
No one in the comments or in my post said anything about terrorists being wonderful. Once again, you prove my post to be right on the mark. Don’t like bush? You must like terrorists. You are brainwashed and the sad thing is you don’t even know it.
Then you wrote: “I helped defend this country from people like you during the Viet Nam war and heard the same crap out of you whinning liberals then.”
I served in the military myself, even though bush got out of doing so. And I’m not a liberal. Again you prove my post right on the mark. Don’t like bush? You must be a liberal.
Then you wrote: “this country is not for sale as long as We the People of this country who have fought for your sorry liberal tails have a say”
Bush sold this country to corporate interests like haliburton, worldcom, and others. So you had a say and he sold it anyway. No bid contracts for haliburton and worldcom and oil companies are what this is about.
We could have finished afghanistan where the enemy was. Where the people who attacked on 911 were. Instead we spend 80% of the war on terror budget in Iraq to achieve bush and these corporation’s agendas.
Then to absolutely proved my post 100% correct in your last statement: “STOP TRASHING AMERICA!!!!!!!!!”
I didn’t trash America!!!!!!!!. I said I don’t like george bush. You heard I don’t like America because you are a brainwashed pinhead.

Namecritic:
How come, if you think so badly about Bill O’Reilly, you use his phrases, such as “koolaid” drinker, and “pinhead”. Bill O”Reilly is the only one showing the difference in the “Cultural War”. Whining and bitching, like you do, is habit forming, and bad for your health. Try rather, and it is very easy, to find the things that uplift and add to our country. Anyone can find faults, that is lowlife. Mr. O”Reilly has informed about a lot of things that the liberals won’t report or want to hear. The truth hurts, doesn’t it? Bill O’Reilly has helped the causes of many people that, again, the liberals, don’t care about. He exposes the judges that free killers and rapists. He has openly talked about the “Illegals” that get support from liberals, and the tremendous cost to us. Want to talk some more about a good TV commentater? You probably listen and support Bill Moyer.

Hey, foolbar: If you hate Bill O’Reilly so much and want to see him get bashed on his show, WHY DO YOU WATCH him? Are you a saddist or like being miserable. Watch Bill Moyer and be happy. No one else supports the cast offs and exposes the country give aways that the foolish judges, politicians in some states do. You can’t stand the truth that Coulter, Limbaugh, Reagan, Malkin, Gingrich, and many many others tell. But????? you support our country. AND how would we know this, by your bashing the president. You think Pelosi, and Reid, and Murther have a better way? SURE! Hopesone Ben
Comment by Hopesone Ben — January 6, 2008 @ 4:22 pm
Hopesome Ben, you just lost all credibility by adding ann coulter into the same sentence with the word truth.
O’Reilly is an ignorant bigot, plain and simple. He doesn’t even realize he is a racist and that’s just sad.
Ann Coulter is a whiny old maid attention whore who the media should ignore, but as with all train wrecks, they pay attention and that is all she wants. Remember her attacks on the widows of 911? You support that?
As for me, I use O’reilly’s phrases back on him because he’s a hypocrite and it’s the best way to point that out. But koolaid drinking was something he stole from others, mostly bloggers who used that phrase long before he did. He didn’t invent pinhead either, but you seem to think he is somehow original. Do you get out much?
And I think you meant Bill Mahr? Not sure who Bill Moyer is, but if you meant Mahr, he’s an entertainer. Pretty fair comedian. That’s all.
As for what I post on the blog, please read the title of the blog itself. Things That Just Piss ME Off. Notice the ME was capitalized. You are welcome to start one of your own.
Also it is not titled Things I Think Would Be Great. That would be another blog.
But I appreciate your guidance in what you think I should be saying rather than what I want to say on my blog. I’ll take it under advisement and give it the attention it deserves. That’s a promise.
By the way, I really do appreciate your visits and your comments. Discussion is healthy. But if you use comments to attack you have to know I don’t mind defending myself and I have a very thick skin.
I still like you even if we disagree entirely on the direction this counmtry is headed into due in large part to those people you mentioned in your comments and in large part due to people you didn’t mention like bush and cheney.

“If we’re ignorant of the historical sacrifices that made our liberties possible, we will be less likely to make the sacrifices again so that those liberties are preserved for future generations. And, if we’re ignorant, we won’t even know when government infringes on our liberties. Moreover, we’ll happily cast our votes for those who’d destroy our liberties.” — Walter Williams.
“You need only reflect that one of the best ways to get yourself a reputation as a dangerous citizen these days is to go about repeating the very phrases which our founding fathers used in the struggle for independence.” — Charles Austin Beard, The Blue Press, June, 1994
“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse (generous gifts) from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, (which is) always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilization has been two hundred years. These nations have progressed through this sequence. From bondage to spiritual faith; from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage to liberty; from liberty to abundance, from abundance to complacency; from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back into bondage.” — Professor Alexander Tyler (1787)
Read that quote. Now look at the way bush has taken more executive power to override the power of both the legislative and judicial branches of government. Then look at how he has allowed corporate greed to prosper during his administration. Then look at the deficit he has created which is now ruining the economy and putting us in a deficit. Then tell me you support all that he does.
Comment by namecritic — January 7, 2008 @ 7:39 am
I say the same here as my response to “Torture”. You reject Bill O’Reilly and feel justified to attack him. He not only labels pinheads, which, as he states, isn’t a permanent label. That label is given for a particular statement or action by that person. That label is quite soft as compared to other harsh names that could be used. He also names patriots, but isn’t given credit for that. I see no patriots listed in your site. Just negatives. You say that I don’t get out much, however; there is a Bill Moyer and he was head of the Public Broadcasting System. Quite one sided in his views and also feels free to set an example by attacking our (positionally), president. Bill Maher is supposed to be an entertainer, however; he just happens to be an (for him the term ignorant), liberal, and uses his stage to put out poliatical garbage, again, in my opinion, ignorant. Bill O’Reilly has an audience that far outnumbers any other cable commentator. If you recall, there were some very outspoken liberals that tried to compete with the likes of Bill O’Reilly, and Rush Limbaugh, who flopped and are long gone. That list would include the national supporter, Rosie. Why do you suppose that is? People want hope, uplifting, and strong leadership that is consistant. I didn’t say that these many many people are content or believe that they have achieved that position, or that the leadership is correct. But, if these many many people give up that hope and desire of strong, constant leadership we would become another third world, or failing European country, looking for a foundation to stand on.
I don’t believe the strongly outspoken, attacking opponents of President Bush have any options for succes to heal the many problems, serious ones, that face our nation. A congress that spends days attacking Rush Limbaugh for something that he said or didn’t say is childish, and surely not consistant or strong leadeership. To change our country by judicial bench declarations is surely not the way to accomplish sound upholding of our nation. That is the position of the liberal portion of our nation. Give me some sound, realistic options, not attacking names, and slogans, and yes, whining and bitching. Hopesone Ben
Comment by Hopesone Ben — January 7, 2008 @ 5:39 pm
There are three branches of government. All 3 are supposed to be equal. Bush has tried to make the executive branch all powerful over the others. A concept that leads to dictatorship.
My solution? Impeach bush for the laws he has broken and the disrespect he has had for our democratic process as well as the disrespect he has shown for the office of president.
To me that is a positive. To remove an individual who swore an oath to uphold the constitution, then called it a piece of paper, who swore to uphold the laws of this nation and when caught breaking them, dared congress to make it legal after the fact, is a postive answer.
I am by far NOT a liberal. I believe bush has caused harm to this country.
Comment by namecritic — January 8, 2008 @ 11:02 am
I asked, as I do a lot of people, again, what positive solutions do you have for the problems: education, rising taxes, foreign policy, illigals coming into this country and causing shortages in services, and money.
There are thousands of people killed in auto accidents each year, solution: do away with the auto.
There are a lot of people killed each year by shooters of guns. solution: ban guns (you’d agree with this one???)
If you check historically you will find supposed abuses of executive powers. Roosevelt for one, Nixon obviously, Clinton while in office passed a lot of executive orders, they were not legal.
So, bottom line solution: impeach Bush
Okay, you got rid of Bush yesterday, now what?
