“…but it’s just not fun to talk about.”

No, it’s not, but it does provide specific evidence to back up our lady Jessica’s characterization of Billy Boy (especially when you consider that O’Reilly did not even personally know the victim’s father).

“We love her even more now.”

Oliver! I’m shocked! I did not think it was possible to love her more than you already do.

“I’m amused by the implication in the postings on this thread that O’Reilly’ asshollery is limited to the Andrea Mackris affair. Take away Mackris and O’Reilly is still an asshole fifty times over.”

Yeah, but mistaking a loofah and a falafel during, what I can only hope was a drunken sex call is very, very amusing.

“Fuck it, we’ll do it live!” is fun, but not as likely to cause people to giggle.

Having the son of a victim of 9/11 on and yelling at him that he (Bill O’Reilly) knows what the victim’s father would think more than his own son has 50 times the raw asshole power, but it’s just not fun to talk about.

The obligatory Mackris, falafel and loofahs to match the equally obligatory ‘We’ll Do It Live’ video. Insightful, Repack. C’mon, you guys are supposed to be a bit better than that.

Better than what? The standard you are setting?

Please.

Responding to your mewling whine that pointing out O’Reilly’s public record of sexual harassment is somehow demeaning to me, but pointing out Bill Clinton’s consensual exchange is obligatory and admirable on your part in any discussion of morality…

Is pointless, because merely stating your comparison shows how ridiculous it is.

Why don’t you explain why Bill O’Reilly’s million dollar settlement and the tawdry details of it aren’t evidence that he is an a-hole just as the young lady, the remarkably perceptive and attractive young lady I might add, pointed out. It’s not like she had all day to give an unscheduled interview to a known a-hole and woman-abuser, so there was no reason for her to go into any detail.

But please, explain why Mr. O’Reilly’s moral failures, which far exceed Clinton’s, are not evidence that Ms. Alba had emptied the magazine into the ten-ring. (I know how much you kids who have never served like that military jargon.)

Refresh my memory. What, exactly, was your point again?

Maybe Miss Alba should have said, “Bill O’Reilly? He’s kind of an a-hole…just like Bill Clinton!!!!
-QIB

In a pig’s eye, Quibbie. Liberal bloggers would roast her, and possibly even threaten a boycott of showing pics of her in a bikini.

Never happen.

Well, let’s put it this way, then Dennis. Maybe Miss Alba should have said, “Bill O’Reilly? He’s kind of an a-hole…just like Bill Clinton!!!1!

Happy?

You’re absolutely correct, Mister ed. I don’t know what you’re talking about. I never know what liberals are talking about when they valiantly defend Bill Clinton’s sordid and irresponsible behavior with Monica Lewisnky on grounds that it was consensual, but profess disgust and dismay at Bill O’Reilly’s behavior on grounds that it wasn’t consensual. Except that they rarely mention the non consensuality of his deeds, it’s always the sordid details Mackris accused him of while she remained on the phone long after he spoke of such details.

Kathleen Willey… not consensual. ‘Nevermind, she had mental problems’.

Juanita Brodderick…not consensual. ‘Nevermind, statute of limitations. He wasn’t president then either’.

But Bill O’Reilly and Andrea Mackris…. “OMG, what an A-hole!!!”

Yeah, I don’t understand.

And consensuality is a good bit more than a “nuance.”

Hey, easy there, those of Bill-o and Dennis’s ilk don’t know what your talking about.

Not his employee. And consensuality is a good bit more than a “nuance.”

You’re right, QIB, my bad. It was a cigar and it was his employee’s backside; not his. And I guess it wasn’t just over a phone call, either.

Nuance.

Shorter Dennis: Falafels are entirely appropriate sex toys for the shower. Oh, and sexual harassment of subordinate co-workers is Teh Awesome!

Dennis: “You don’t have to be smart to know that Bill O’Reilly is a bit of an A-hole. But if you call him that to a reporter with a camera filming you, you should at least be able or willing to offer up an explanation for doing so.”

If she was talking about Keith Olberman, would you apply the same metric, or laugh and point?

Yeah, thought so.

CSS: If you treat someone with respect, and they act like an asshole, they are to blame.

Couldn’t agree more. Going to have to file that one away. Use it the next time someone’s initial response to a comment is “you’re a fuckin’ tard” or something like that.

Thanks, C!

Well, I mean what would you call a guy who telephones one of his employees in the middle of the night to tell her about the teensy little penis-shaped vibrator he’s got stuck up his butt?”

A Bill Clinton impersonator?
