Conservative talk icon Bill O’Reilly acts like he’s just a regular guy, but according to some talk show hosts who worked with O’Reily at an L.A. station the truth is a different beast, indeed.
Apparently, he was not pleased with the efforts staffers had made for him. In particular, he was extremely unhappy with the croissants that were laid out for him.
Not because he is against the French and everything they have to offer. No, that would almost show some character on his part. I mean, it would be obnoxious, but consistent with his professed beliefs, so you’d have to give him points for walking the walk.
No this was a bigger problem. Much bigger.
The croissants were not fresh enough.
Apparently, there is no room for store bought baked goods in the No Spin Zone. They must be from a bakery. And they must be baked fresh, very fresh. Which is why he insisted that a baker in Beverly Hills be summoned to create a fresh batch, just for him. Post haste.
Because Bill is just folks, you know. A regular guy.
He followed that up by demanding that a helicopter take him to Orange County for his next appearance, because he didn’t want to spend an hour in the limousine the station had arranged for him. That was too much to ask.
Salt of the earth. Just plain folks, lookin’ out for you.
OT: I love the new look of the site. Nice job!
I agree with Bill: store-bought croissants are crap.
Yeah, new site looks great!
Oliver - the site looks amazing!
It’s a pity our resident crew of short bus riders (Frank, pedro, etc.) are going to stink it up again in no time flat.
oliverwillis.com: The only liberal blog in the world where the right-wingers are in charge, and the liberals feel like the trolls.
According to Paris Business Daily, the fresh croissants are part of the treaty the French signed when they surrendered to Bill O’Reilly so he would call off his boycott which was crippling the country.
What? No falafel made from scratch?
That Bill O’Reilly! Acting like a TV star…
I think Bill may actually be unconsciously engaged in the process of becoming Stephen Colbert.
Perhaps it’s part of his program of sexualizing everyday objacts and foods.
I understand he likes fresh falafels too. He IS consistent.
Hey, Joe: Here are some words of wisdom for you — Go fuck yourself…
Yea, Joe how dare you attack Frank on his own blog! Go back to condipundit where you belong!
Beans, condipundit hasn’t been in operation since well before SEP 2006.
Were you born in a barn, OW?
Don’t you know all us regular folks have fresh-baked pastries served to us by personal assistants every day?
Mr. O’Reilly is just one of the guys.
Hey, it’s “Chopper Billo”. Maybe he can do live traffic on the way?
