I Made a Mistake...(IS THE UN-AMERICANS BOYCOTT WORKING ON BILL AND RUSH?)

[TLBSHOW]

Hi, I'm Bill O'Reilly. Thank you for watching us tonight.

I made a mistake yesterday. Can you believe it? That's the subject of this evening's Talking Points Memo.

For those of you who say I'm never wrong, I never admit I'm wrong, well, you're wrong, because I was wrong when I said that Americans who continue demonstrating against the war once the shooting begins are being un-American. I'm taking that back.

[TLBSHOW]

The left considers this a win and plan to target all conservatives.

The left considers this a win

They like being called Bad Americans? Well...so be it...although I could think of a few choice names for them that would better suit...

[Marysecretary]

They had a small group of "Patriots for Peace" demonstration on the main street of Norwich yesterday. I was naughty and put a thumbs down at them. (My husband didn't think I was being very nice but...)

[TLBSHOW]

Good work, they had one here a few weeks back and they caused a 3 car wreck...

[TLBSHOW]

That is the point from what I find a major advertiser had called Fox and demanded an apology or no ads.

[N. Theknow]

And it is our duty as loyal Americans to shut up once the fighting begins, unless -- unless facts prove the operation wrong, as was the case in Vietnam.

I disagree.

[Marysecretary]

They cause more than that over-all, including the division of our nation. They're despicable as far as I'm concerned.

[Poohbah]

I didn't give my local dope-smoking long-haired maggot-infested FM types an upward-pointing THUMB, but they did get a single digit :o)

[FreeTally]

If a baseball player consistently makes errors, I will call that person a bad baseball player and be accurate for doing so.

What at dumb analogy. An error in baseball is defined as such. Bill is trying to say that if a player continually engages in what is a "defined action" in baseball, then that player is a "bad player" and thus anyone who opposes the war is "in error" and is thus a "bad American". What a dufus.

Bill makes good observations many times, but he is just off the mark here with a very poor, inapropriate analogy.

[FreeTally]

They cause more than that over-all, including the division of our nation.

Ins't it interesting how everyone always thinks "the other side" is causing a division of the nation?

[finnman69]

I watched O'reilly do this live. He said i used the wrong words. Instead of un-American I will refer to these misguided antiwar types as BAD Americans.

I don't really see this as any loss.

[TLBSHOW]

The left does and I will send you a link. They are nuts as we know. Amd commies and un americans

[Marysecretary]

I thought of that, but I knew my husband would have a fit if I did it. He didn't like the thumbs down as it was. I have to be good sometimes, you know. (Even when I DON'T WANT TO!)
