O'Reilly was on Stern this morning talking about The Red Cross, Clooney, The United Way, etc..., and Stern was agreeing with everything O'reilly did. In fact, O'Reilly was very complimentary toward Stern as was Stern to O'Reilly. 2 boys from the Island causing trouble in Hollywood. After all, it was Stern who called the Hollywooders chicken for running back to L.A. after 9/11. It turns out that Stern is a big watcher of the O' Reilly Factor.
See post #33. D'Amato's no pro-lifer, hence it's fully consistent for Stern to endorse.
No you see post #48.
I have absolutely no idea why Mannaggia l'America believes Al D’Amato is not prolife.
I have absolutely no idea, beyond that completely unsourced statement by Mannaggia l'America, why you believe Al D’Amato is not prolife.
“On issues like abortion rights and reproductive freedom, D'Amato votes with Jesse Helms every time -- 100%"- Patricia Ireland (1998)
Now will you admit you were wrong?
The blind leading the lame.
And he needs guests like that -- Curtis and Kuby are kicking everyone's butt in the ratings.
I know Stern is pro-death-penalty (part of why he hated Cuomo), so that is something they do differ on.
That seems like a states rights issue, too.
Amen!
What's with the references to Clooney?.
Why am I not surprised?
Are you kidding? A pair of media whores, each working his own side of the street. It's all showbiz; don't take it seriously. I'm sure they don't.
OK, Stern endorsed ONE pro-life candidate. In the meantime, on the air, for every other race, he has been for the pro-abort, and vocally so. It's the only issue he cared about other than when he ran for gov on a platform of construction at night, and one other thing I cannot remember.
Yes, he is personally pro-abortion, but he does not endorse candidates on that single issue. That was my point.
As far as I know, he has endorsed three pro-abort candidates – Pataki, Whitman, and Guiliani (all three were running against fellow pro-abort candidates, so it didn’t matter which side he endorsed.)
One pro-life candidate – D’Amato (running against vehement pro-abortion candidate Chuckie Schumer.)
And one fuzzy fence-sitter on the issue – Lazio (who was certainly more pro-life than his opponent, Hillary.)
Um, no.
I was trying to say that your revelation of O'Reilly's "personally opposed" straddle squares with my instinct that his TV conservative persona is just a schtick.
They are like FReepers on high-octane speed with no holds barred, most celebrities are not that stupid!
My bad. I answered the "Is he pro-choice" question (which wasn't asked) - I must be going blind.
