O’Reilly The Pinhead Strikes Again
Cmon, who really listens to this idiot and believes anything he says. John Edwards says there are 200,000 homeless veterans. Bill O’Reilly said there are not 200,000 homeless veterans. He gets proven wrong and finds out there are after calling Edwards a liar and now says Edwards owes HIM the apology.
The following is a transcript of the show where Bill O’Reilly is proven to be a liar but refuses to admit he is wrong no matter what.
O’REILLY: To hype up this class warfare, Edwards is now bringing in homeless veterans.
(BEGIN VIDEO CLIP)
EDWARDS: Tonight, across this country, 200,000 men and women who wore our uniform and can serve this country patriotically, veterans, will go to sleep under bridges and on grates.
(END VIDEO CLIP)
O’REILLY: Now I’ve said on this program that we will pay for homeless veterans to be taken to the Edwards mansion in North Carolina for shelter. Of course, that’s an immature remark, I know that, but there’s a reason I’m saying it.
Certainly there are homeless veterans, but it’s not because of the economy. It’s mostly because of addiction and mental illness, something politicians can do little about.
Some people, including veterans, do become homeless because of the economy. They lose their jobs and become homeless. It happens. It is not because of mental illness or addiction for everyone who becomes homeless nor is that the only way veterans become homeless.
Bill O’Reilly the pinhead will distort any fact to make his point and to get people to believe he actually knows something.
Then he says politicians can do nothing about homeless veterans. regardless of why these veterans are homeless, the government could and should be doing more to help them. To claim that politicians can do nothing to help them is ridiculous.
These veterans served our country and deserve better than what they are getting when they return home. If they are mentally ill or addicted to alcohol or drugs then we should pay for everything that needs to be done to help them overcome it. We should do whatever we have to do to be sure they are not sleeping on the streets, period.
Bush does nothing for the veterans and he has rush limbaugh and pinhead o’reilly covering it up and trying to convince people no problem exists. By convincing people there is no problem bsuh and other politicians won’t be held accountable for the poor treatment of our veterans.
But if Edwards admits the truth, it takes away the class warfare issue, which is his only issue. […]
Right there is no diversity that causes the rich to get richer while the poor get poorer. This doesn’t even have anything to do with bush or republicans or democrats. This has to do with people rich enough to make sure everyone else remains their own private labor pool. It’s a fact.
O’REILLY: Yet according to the government census, poor households in America have lots of stuff. 97 percent have a color TV, 78 percent a DVD player, 80 percent an air conditioner, 73 percent a car or truck, 63 percent cable or satellite TV, and 43 percent of poor households in the USA own the home they are living in.
Here is a great example of how pinhead o’reilly distorts the truth and distracts his listeners or viewers. The statistics he just mentioned show percentages of “households” that have stuff. The homeless are not included in those statisitics. They don’t have households.
If you added the number of people who are homeless to those statistics, people aho have no color tvs and dvd players, those percentages would be cut by at least 1/4. So about 75% of americans have the color tv and 55% a dvd player and so on.
But pinhead o’reilly uses statistics that have nothing to do with the homeless veterans he was mistaken about. He is using those to distract viewers.
So if the poor are not destitute in America, and they obviously are not, why are so many veterans sleeping under bridges, John Edwards? The answer again they’re mostly addicted or mentally ill. It has nothing to do with the economy.
Again, not all homeless veterans are addicts. Those who are should be getting treatment in a hospital, not sleeping under a bridge. All homeless veterans are not mentally ill. Of those who are, most of them have a mental illness due to their service to our country. They sho0uld be receiving the help they need but they don’t. There are actually homeless veterans who are not addicts or mentally ill and that is due to the economy. So pinhead is wrong and he is a liar.
Edwards is a charlatan, a man either too uninformed or too dishonest to be elected to anything. I am tired of hearing this nonsense from him and other callow politicians. We deal with facts here on The Factor, not fiction. John Edwards owes us an apology. […]
Facts, O’reilly, and fox news should never be used in the same sentence. O’reilly owes America and every veteran in America an apology.
JOSEPH CALIFANO: We have 200,000 veterans who are homeless.
O’REILLY: Right. […]
Oops. You mean there really are 200,000 homeless veterans and o’reilly was wrong? Will he admit it? Tune in and see.
O’REILLY: But this is wrong for a major presidential candidate to demagogue this issue and try to tell the people it’s America’s economic system that’s causing this problem, is a lie, it’s wrong, he should be called on it. […]
Hey! Pinhead O’Reilly. You just got called on your lie and you don’t admit it nor do you apologize to our veterans, so why do you still insist it’s edwards who lied?
CALIFANO: This is not the only issue that happens to, Bill. Let me just say there’s enormous denial about this.
O’REILLY: I’m not in denial. I don’t think any…[…]
CALIFANO: I - well, they don’t want - they don’t to - they don’t recognize that substance abuse…
O’REILLY: They recognize.
CALIFANO: Drives all our social ills.
O’REILLY: Edwards knows this. He’s lying. He’s lying. He knows it. Everybody knows it.
CALIFANO: I don’t believe that John Edwards is lying.
O’REILLY: Then he’s dumb.
CALIFANO: No, he’s not.
O’REILLY: One or the other. […]
O’REILLY: But I hope you understand my anger. It’s an anger that if you want to solve the problem for the veterans, let’s be honest about it. Let’s not demagogue it like Edwards is doing.
Why don’t you be honest about it Mr. Pinhead. You slammed the veterans and you do not apologize. You are trying to save face because you thought you knew everything and found out you didn’t know anything about the homeless veteran problem
Admit you made a mistake. Admit you lied. Admit you insulted a lot of homeless veterans by saying they are all mentally ill and addicts. Admit that our government, including the bush administration, treats our veterans poorly. I only added the bush administration because they are currently sending men and women over to fight in Iraq right now and I do not want them treated the same way when they return home.
But I guess pinhead o’reilly doesn’t care about them at all. His statements prove it.
