this asshole has a lot of nerve...

[spanone]

to raise his fucking finger at the President of the United States.

[aristocles]

1. Chill...just a mannerism....he's done it for years....to everyone.

[spanone]

4. don't care.

[freshwest]

16. Never seen Brillo that I don't think of Goebbels. No class or humanity. No wonder he's offended.

He isn't worthy to lick Obama's shoes, running dog that he is. PBO is not talking to this moral reject, he's talking to Americans or God, for all I know. I'm pretty sure how the latter would judge between the two and if there is a Hereafter, Brillo is in big trouble. He's led many to their destruction with his lies and hatred. He's not just a bigot, he's an inciter to murder.

[kardonb]

47. Brillo

somebody should have told him beforehand : Never try to beat the President in a "discussion" or interview . he will make mincemeat of you always .

[freshwest]

55. Yes, his calm demeanor and honesty plow through the games and insanity. Thanks. n/t

[Major Nikon]

43. I've seen a lot of presidential interviews. I've never seen anyone show such disrespect.

...and not even to Presidents like Nixon and Shrub who clearly deserved disrespect.

O'Reilly repeatedly interrupted the President and accused him of lying with zero evidence. The man is a festering asshole who doesn't deserve to be in the same room with the President.

[NJCher]

44. what I thought, too

I only watched a small part of it because he came off like a bully. Being from NJ, we're pretty much up to here with bullies.

When a person shows disrespect, especially in a situation with someone like a president, it makes them look bad. In this case, O'Reilly didn't come off as a tough journalist or whatever it is he fancies himself. He just came off like a crude jerk who doesn't know how to behave. No class. No savoir-faire. Nothing.

[Hassin Bin Sober]

48. Didn't O'Lielly act the same last time he interviewed The President?

[Major Nikon]

52. I don't remember his last one being nearly that bad

[easychoice]

2. it's on its way to his nose...

it will fit nicely

[freshwest]

15. And make a better impression than that crap that comes out of his mouth...n/t

[Maynar]

30. HA!

[Nanjing to Seoul]

35. And his other thumb is up his ass?

[Cha]

3. Oh he's all wrapped up in

his self righteous lies.. just waiting to pounce on the POTUS.

So Obama had a ring side seat to Fox Lies..

“They believe [that] because folks like you are telling them that,” President Obama said. “These kinds of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your TV station will promote them."

5. Stop dissing assholes

[spanone]

6. bwahahahahaaa...actual assholes have a function, this guy? naw....

[Tx4obama]

7. I heard yesterday that Bill interrupted President Obama 42 times in ten minutes.

[grahamhgreen]

8. Why the f*ck would Obama give him the time of day??? Shows extreme weakness, IMHO.

[spanone]

10. or extreme balls, depending on your point of view.

[sheshe2]

12. I'm with you on that....

Thanks spanone!

[mimi85]

45. Me too sheshe2!

Bill O'Reilly shaking his finger reminded me of Jan Brewer all in PBO's face a few years ago.

[grahamhgreen]

22. Perhaps if O'really were a serious journalist. But, he's just a bad joke, lol!

[spanone]

23. he's a rocket scientist to his minions...a brilliant genius to the tea schmuckers!

[grahamhgreen]

50. Yes, but what he is doing is validating o'really!!! Elevating him to be an equal.

Bill wins no matter what.

Make sense?

[PsychGrad]

40. It's not ballsy

to think you are superior to someone because they are more brown than you are. Even if they ARE the President of the US. It's never been ballsy.

[sabrina 1]

49. Well, he gave him status. If it takes balls to give status to someone like that

my idea of 'balls' has been way off all this time. What takes 'balls' is to ignore these morons which liberals finally realized. And since liberals stopped tuning in to this psychopath's ranting and raving, their ratings have dropped.

O'Reilly is a tabloid journalist, that's what he always was. Why on earth would a President of the US even bother with a Tabloid? Would he talk to the Enquirer? Would it take 'balls' to sit down and give them the time of day?

WHO CARES what they think or do? Obama appears to care more about what these morons think than what those who elected him think.

I'd like to see him now sit down and talk to Greenwald. THAT would take 'balls'. I doubt he would wave his finger at a US President, he would be respectful but truthful. But he seems to be always seeking approval from these right wingers. Someone should inform him of what most of us have known for a long time, you could stand on your head, you could present them with a million dollar check, you could place them a powerful position in your Democratic Cabinet against the wishes of your base, see Gates, eg, and you will never get their approval.

I personally am terrified of ever being approved of by O'Reilly and his ilk. If it ever happened I would have to seriously check myserf. As FDR said, 'I welcome their hatred'. Because you know someone as much by their enemies as by their friends. I am very comfortable with my enemies. I wonder why the President constantly tries to get them to 'understand' him.

[grahamhgreen]

51. Well said. He validates them by addressing them as equals.

[Hutzpa]

9. I completely agree

everytime he has sat down with the president he has shown gross disrespect, I just don't understand why the WH continues to put the
president in such situation. Whomever is responsible for this shit should be fired.

:pissed:

[Beacool]

11. Oh, he's an asshole alright, but not for raising his finger.

It's a mannerism, he wasn't jabbing it in Obama's face like Jan Brewer did that one time. His interview was "assholey" enough, though.

[sheshe2]

13. K&R

[Skittles]

14. I don't understand why Obama legitimizes that piece of garbage

but appearing on his crap show

WHY?

[Jenoch]

17. I don't know why President Obama

did this interview. There are many reasons to be annoyed with O'Reilly, but him using hand gestures when he talks is not one of them.

[2naSalit]

18. Of the

45 seconds of this that I could stomach, it appears that all of these sh*t4brainz are all about showing disrespect to this high and mighty black guy and this is how they show their customers that they have the balls to be brazenly idiotic and disrespectful because it makes them feel good about their hatred. It validates their ignorance and glorifies it.

[PsychGrad]

38. Yep.

And the fact that they walk away from these thinking, "Oh, we showed him!" is so idiotic. He schools them with intelligence and class EVERY single time and they are too ignorant to even realize it at all. I really don't know how any of them sleep at night with such hatred and bigotry in their hearts.

[edbermac]

19. You obviously missed that shot of Obama raising his finger at O'Reilly.

[lumpy]

20. Ha ! and Obama really means it.

[MrScorpio]

21. Bill is the living embodiment of the Dunning-Kruger Effect

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning–Kruger_effect

[tblue37]

57. You've linked to an article about a little town named Dunning. nt

[MrScorpio]

58. Select the entire line, right click and choose Go To Address

It'll take you there

[tblue37]

61. Actually, I googled the term and found the info that way, after your link led me to

the article about the town. I just thought you'd like to know about the link.

[Brigid]

24. I still have no idea why Obama agreed to that interview.

[spanone]

26. It has become tradition......

didn't know this but....

It has become tradition for the sitting President to grant an interview with a journalist from a news division operated by the media company broadcasting the event. Scott Pelley interviewed President Obama for CBS in 2013 and Matt Lauer interviewed him for NBC in 2012. In 2011, O’Reilly asked President Obama questions about such topics as unrest in Egypt and health-care reform.

[gLibDem]

25. Fvck it! He'll do it live! He'll write it and do it live!

[ZombieHorde]

27. They're both just people. nt

[spanone]

28. but they're both not assholes.

[mdbl]

31. I disagree, O'Lielly is a piece of excrement

To call him a person is an insult to the human race.

[ZombieHorde]

33. They both have assholes in their butts. nt

[Spitfire of ATJ]

29. This interview was all about HIM.

[PsychGrad]

37. His "interviews"

are ALWAYS all about him.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

42. Reminds me of someone....

[PsychGrad]

53. Well, this is probably going to show my age...

but I have NO idea who that is? The hair does remind me of Donald Trump though.... Who is it? He looks vaguely familiar? Sorry for my ignorance!

[Spitfire of ATJ]

54. Wally George....

He had a show during the Reagan Years that was a spoof of the right.

He had a studio audience of college age thugs that you could tell were playing along with the joke.

[obxhead]

32. Maybe.

If I were face to face with President Obama I would likely raise my finger as well. Several of them actually as I count off my disappointments with his administration.

[countmyvote4real]

34. Faux and the interview got served by Jon Stewart tonight.

Catch it on the replay.

[edbermac]

41. I watched it but it found it too distracting.

[progressoid]

60. SQUIRREL!

?resize=300%2C300

[PsychGrad]

36. Par for the course...

for those who just "dismiss" this President - as a man, as a person, as the President. I just had a FB convo today with someone that called the President "defiant". I just found that a very odd word choice when referring to a grown man who is President of the US. They said he works for them and they see him as a defiant child. What? That just blows my mind. This President has been working twice as hard to get half as much since before day one - and that's such bullshit, imo. Had they "accepted" him as President, imagine the things he could have accomplished. I guess I was wrong and the US really wasn't ready for a bi-racial President. To me, all of these things equal "uppity" and "boy". It just makes me ashamed and sad.

[blkmusclmachine]

39. Did BillO threaten to turn off Obama's mic? That's SOP on Faux Nooz, whenever you start telling the

truth. My opinion only.

[Rex]

46. O' Blowhard is under the misconception that he is a real journalist

when the fact is he never left the mental level of Inside Edition.

To be blunt, Bill O'Reilly is unworthy to sit next to the POTUS. Just another hack that made it by yelling over the issues.

[mwrguy]

56. That is beyond the pale.

Disrespectful jerk.

[MADem]

59. He's FINGER WAGGING!!!!!

Talk about jumping the Colbert "Wag of the Finger" parody shark...!

He's a loser, and he'll have to hope his falafels and loofahs keep him warm in old age!

[CFLDem]

62. The President is a public servant, not a King.

He should only be treated by civilians with the same respect that is owed to anyone else.
