Why do you think O’Reilly asked tough questions? O’Reilly always folds up like a cheap suit, and Obama met personally with Ailes before the interview to ensure only softballs were asked.
cheap suit + empty suit = zero + zero.
True. And, Ailes promised the Obamessiah that O’Reilly wouldn’t ask any embarrassing questions. I’m sure Rezko and Ayers come under that umbrella as far as they’re concerned. O’Reilly and Fox News should be ashamed for giving the DNC a wide open platform on the night of McCain’s acceptance speech.
As for O’Reilly bloviating about how he has an “exclusive” interview, I understand Obama’s going to be on with Keith Olberman immediately following. Some exclusive. But, you know, even if O’Reilly was allowed to choose the tone of his own interview, he’s an intellectual lightweight, incapable of anything substantive.
You should have heard the O’Reilly radio show today. I had to turn it off. Michael Smerconish and Ellis Hennican deriding both Palin and McCain. They both agreed that the National Enquirer was a reliable source for information about Palin’s personal life and family, and it got worse from there. Don’t look for this interview to be tough. O’Reilly has sold his soul to the devil for this interview.
The GOP should take away the rights to cover the the McCain speech tonight, if they pursue their plans to air the Obama interview during the coverage of the campaign. I’ll be watching the speech on C-Span.
