Question for Bill O’Reilly: Who’s the Idiot Now?

The ClimateGate scandal demonstrates that some of the key figures behind the man-made global warming theory manipulated the “science” and hid data. Dr. E. Calvin Beisner, national spokesman for the Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, says such conduct may be criminal.

Bill O’Reilly should lead the effort to put these criminals in jail. Why? He was misled by them. In a 2007 interview on CBS’s “60 Minutes,” O’Reilly said not only that “global warming is here” but that those opposed to the theory were “idiots.”

Who’s the idiot now?

Oreilly had Nancy Skinner, the lib talk show woman, who said that the Right Wing predicted that the Acid Rain "cap and trade" program in the 1990s would destroy the economy, but the economy did just fine.

This is the email I sent to him:

Skinner said under Cap and Trade, US innovation would keep prices down, but you missed an easy refutation: Obama himself said "rates would necessarily skyrocket."

Merry Christmas,

BTW, I also sent the following email titled "Thank You" to Geraldo:

For allowing Kimberly Guilfoyle to host your show, which I think is much better when you are gone.

Ever since your MSNBC style, biased, race-card-playing coverage of me and other Americans who attended Tea Parties, it has been particularly difficult to watch you on Fox News.

O’Reilly’s idea of fair is to insult both sides of each issue. The problem with his approach is that both sides of each issue are not always equally incorrect or damnable. Hence he's a clown feigning objectivity, but he frequently doesn't grasp the topics he pontificates on.

[RatsDawg]

Bill lost my trust when he bashed the Swiftboaters. I then put nails in his coffin when he called FR a racist website.

[Cobra64]

Intellectually, O’Reilly is a dim bulb. He could make up for that by doing research on the topic at hand, and learning how to think.

Hey, Bill: Biiigggg Owwwwwl, as in big oil was behind this. They was doin’ too much speculatin, you idiot.

“I am disgusted with Fox.”

Well, I do not associate BORe with all of FOX news.
They are still the best we have, and you can tell by how much the Marxist despise FOX.
I play around on the stupid Topix forums, and you can not believe how much pure HATE the little Commies spew for FOX,
calling it FAUX news. It equals their hate for Rush, and you can only imagine how they refer to him.
Of course, next on their hate list is Sarah.

All in all, FOX is the best that we have in a sinking USA.
If we had what we wanted, the Commnies would find a way to shut it down, in a New York Minute.

I see you like Harley's tagline. I do, too.

How about mine?

He is a total blow hard with little substance. For true conservative perspective, I recommend Michael Savage. He is our man.

Mostly my disgust is with Billo anymore. Now he is trying to BS by agreeing with BO to get him back on the network. Quite sickening. Colmes always was nuts. Dump Geraldo. But they are the only TV on our side such as it is.

Don't you know that it is SETTLED SCIENCE and that EVERYBODY KNOWS!!!! that the earth is getting warmer. That's what the geniuses Juan Williams, Perino, Liasson and Kristol stated on FOX roundtable discussion when Wallace questioned the relevance of the leaked e-mails...

That is the new tactic... to state that it's settled and that EVERYBODY KNOWS that the earth is getting warmer and it's due to man... EVERYBODY.

This is beyond unbelievable that the actual premise... whether we are warming or cooling isn't proven science and then to lump man made CO emissions as the cause makes me want to puke.

Somebody needs to educate • Bill Kristol and Perino . Mara Liasson and Juan Williams are just libtards and can't help themselves.

I finally realize that none of the "ruling class" has a science background. That's why dumbing down the schools was so important.

[Lancey Howard]

Well, I guess we’ll see what O’Reilly is made of. I know that if I had been made to look like a complete fool by fraudsters posing as respected scientists, I would be awfully pee’d off about it. Let’s see if O’Reilly has the spine to give these “global warming” frauds the smackdown they deserve. And off his audience a mea culpa as well. O’Reilly has an opportunity to help himself out tremendously here.

...Or totally destroy whatever credibility he has left on the issue by offering up lame excuses.

[Tribune7]

I don't know why everyone insists on calling cue cards idiot cards.

[Jeff Chandler]

Well....he wanted “to be fair”

And unbalanced?

[qwertypie]

Conservative talking heads are like conservative congresscritters. Once in power, they want to be accepted and belong, and to keep their sources of income. Why in the heck else would BOR keep appearing on something so lowbrow as The View?

How many talking heads ever took more than a required science course in college? Not very many. They’re more susceptible to politicized faux science than that average intelligent person.

[PGalt]

Thanks to Cliff Kincaid for challenging BOR on this issue.

[TASMANIANRED]

O’Reilly is rarely well informed.

[Earthdweller]

[Balding_Eagle]

BOR is hardly a conservative. At best he’s a populist, at worst, an idiot.

[billybudd]

I remember a while back he claimed that anyone who shorts American stocks is unpatriotic. This guy has been a professional idiot for a long time.
