Obama reaches out and touches O'Reilly's knee during the Ayers interview segment on the O'Reilly Show (7:05 mark)
Chrissy Matthews is probably green with jealousy and envy.
He repeatedly reached out and touched his knee during his little rant.
Must be in a handbook somewhere.
I can’t stand “bloviators” like Oh’Really but he’s OUR Bloviator. He won’t treat Obama half as critically as he will try to be with Palin because he feels that will get him better ratings. However, if he tries to be an ass with Palin, she will emasculate him on camera.
He also probably has a wide stance when in a limo, or so I hear.
It is creepy. It’s not a guy gesture—more of a woman’s gesture. Men don’t touch men, except to slap them on the back or shake hands. In a setting like this interview, it can probably be looked at as a manipulative gesture. God knows Obama probably doesn’t feel kind sentiments toward O’Reilly, so if it was just some kind of touchy-feely force of habit thing, it’s just plain creepy.
I didn’t realize that Michelle Obama is white. The girl can’t dance a lick. Maybe lick a dancer, but can’t dance.
The woman reached out to touch Christ.
I quit watching that goober after he sucked up to Kerry in that interview back in 2004.

How’s O’Reilly’s gig been going? I am cable-less and that is one thing I would have enjoyed watching. Got any summaries?
No fist bump?
Tweety must be sooooooooooooo jealous...
Maybe he just wanted to give O’Reilly a thrill up his leg too.
I can’t find it either... maybe it is a secret link?
One segment of the interview I saw the other night, BOR made some aside comment about a brother living in a hut. I was laughing hysterically, but no one else seems to have caught it. It was very early on in the interview.
There is a literature on touching. It’s been studied a lot. It’s a power thing. High status people touch lower status people, not the reverse.
Don’t believe the literature? Go up to a judge or your doctor and try touching him on the knee or slapping him on the back. Unless you are head of the AMA or a justice on the Supreme Court it won’t go over well.
Do you remember BOR's attack on FR?
He softballed the Obamanation and then came out and said "he just wants what's best". Please, BOR is a self serving gasbag. Quit watching him years ago. The only worse person on FOX is Whoraldo.
About the time I quit watching him.
And yet you are unable to let go.
You missed seeing Obama backed into corners he never knew existed.
