Did Frank Rich write something which upset Bill O'Reilly?
http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,180399,00.html

"Talking Points" understands the NSA story is exceedingly difficult. And it deals with your right to know about how the Bush administration is waging the war on terror versus national security.

In the weeks to come, we'll cover the story in a fair and balanced way, even giving the benefit of the doubt to The New York Times.
But there is no doubt, ladies and gentlemen that The Times has been unfair in its coverage of the Bush White House. And the paper also routinely uses personal attacks to hurt people with whom it disagrees. If that does not stop, Bill Keller and Frank Rich to name the two main culprits, will not have a happy new year. As they say in the auction world, fair warning.

1. Why does he make ominous threats all the time
That scare nobody? I'm sure Keller and Rich are just puddles of quivering fear right now. :eyes:

3. They could sue...
but then they'd have to lie and say they really felt their lives were in danger.

I'm thinkin' Bill's hoping one of his wacky viewers will carry out his wishes.

4. Or they should keep messing with him like Franken did
And then he'd wage another embarrassing (not to mention frivolous) lawsuit. He would too. I can't understand why Faux doesn't keep a tighter leash on him. Hasn't he cost them enough?

5. a leash?! FOX is trying to find a way to clone him!
#1 show on the channel and (disputably) Cable News.

Tho I think half his viewers watch for the "train wreck" aspect of it.

6. WTF? Why is the NSA "exceedingly difficult"?
To understand? No it isn't. Our civil liberties versus unfettered access to our personal information in the unending war on terra? Wtf is exceedingly difficult about that?

And why is he threatening people again. Why hasn't his sex scandal shut this idiot's pie hole by now??

:banghead:

8. O'reilly couldn't influence his relatives
if they weren't contaminated with his gene pool. He has his class of bible study regulars, the rest would watch the Pravda network if it was a channel. They wouldn't know news if it hit them in the crotch.
