...Oh and yes in 2005 Bill O'Reilly DID suggest that terrorists should "Go Ahead" and blow up the Coit Tower in San Francisco. Chris Dodd was incorrect Bill said that on the "Radio Factor" not the "O'Reilly Factor." Does this error make Chris Dodd a propagandist like Bill suggested?

16. O'Reilly called Dodd a propagandist....hmmmm. Sounds a lot like the pot calling the kettle black.

17. I think its hilarious how all you liberals bash Fox News, when CNN is farther left then the New York Times. I mean damn, God forbid us Republicans have to have some good conservative reporting when 75% of the media leans left! Maybe you all should watch more Fox News because, them liberals on CNN cant report news or debate for shit. Just watch that dumbass Colmes on you can easily see how Dems support anything that goes against the conservative point of view, but cant back up why they support it.

18. Faux News is bashed because it's not news: it's jingoistic infotainment.
FYI: not everyone who bashes Faux News is a liberal. If you care to find out, I can show you how wrong you are.

19. There's a lot of evidence the planet is warming. What there's not a lot of evidence of, is what's CAUSING said warming. In fact, you know what scientists are doing now? They're trying to study the global warming of 4,000 years ago to find out how they can stop the global warming of today. Wait a second ... there WERE no cars 4,000 years ago. Wait a second ... the planet warms and cools in cycles all throughout history! Screaming its the fault of carbon emissions just isn't the right clearcut answer. You can do all the studies on how its melting, or how its getting warmer, but the fact is none of these prove its the result of man made carbon emissions. And one more thing ... the democrats will do just as little about it as the republicans will. This is the kind of environmental propaganda the democrats use all the time. The same agencies screaming about global warming now, were screaming about the next ice age 10 years ago. It's rediculous, and its bogus until politics get their grimey fingers out of the studies.

21. Who cares what O'Reilly said.? He is fast becoming the poster child for all that is wrong with the right. By the next election thanks in part to Bill O'Reilly Daily Kos will probably have five times the people going there that they did during the 2006 campaign. The reason Democratic Candidates are going to Yearly Kos is they know Daily Kos helped them win the 2006 election in a blowout.. As they will help in 2008. They would need to be brain dead not to go. That is the same reason Billo is whining about them. He knows they help Democrats roll right over Republicans by organizing voters and educating them on Democratic Candidates and their issues. They get people fired up and going to the polls. O'Reilly helps Daily Kos and Democrats almost as much as he hurts Republicans and Conservatism. He is too vain to see it as well which makes it all the sweeter. Look at what Fox News attacks on Rosie did for the show The View. Their ratings exploded every time Fox attacked her. I think left leaning people should be glad for O'Reilly and the assorted Right Wing fruits and nuts on Radio and TV. To be attacked by such people you must be doing a lot of things right and people are not as stupid as gasbags like O'Reilly think they are. The Republicans O'Reilly and the like are all dragging down are the ones who should really be offended. Such nuts do not represent the average Republican or the average Conservative who are normal Americans who do not hate everyone that disagrees with them. I feel sorry for them. Lay down with dogs wake up with fleas. The Right are the ones who need to be complaining about Fox. It's killing them. Daily Kos is the biggest Political Blog on the Web because it's the best. By far. As Bill said. Go and see for yourself.

22. Let's stop all this "Propaganda" and get to the truth? Look at the radical agendas of the left and right to see how we arrived at this imbalance. Janet Jackson shows a pastie and CBS and the left are driven into the vacuum of outer space. Howard Stern's freedom of speech is silenced on Earth and the vacuum created opened the airwaves for the Radical Right agenda of Fox, Rush, Sean, and Bill. The namby pamby progressives on air from the moderate left are getting their panties handed to them by the strong conservative message. The Radical Left has been driven underground and forced to blog. How do you fight fire with fire? The Radical Right agenda was protected when Rush used that "Hillbilly Heroin" and dropped in the ratings. Howard Stern had no equal so the Left was the only 800 lbs. gorilla in the room. The Left and freedom of speech got sucked out into space and the Right is profiting from an unchecked radical, racial, and religious message of hate. How's that for "Propaganda". Kick Fox's radical right wing into space. Protect the airwaves for people with respect for all Americans. How's that for fairness?

23. Bill O' Falafel is a far right propagandist. Bill O' Falafel is a hate monger. Bill O' Falafel's website supports hate and distortion. Bill O' Falafel does not report NEWS, he distorts and reports opinion. Look up "HATE" in the dictionary and there is an ugly pink blotchy picture of Bill O' Falafel.

Pam, suck my cock. It's clearly the only thing dumb hos like you are good for.

27. It is to bad for all the American blood in the soil in Iraq, but that is what it takes to stop Al Quida, it is better we die over there then they kill civilians over here. At least the military know that there is always a chance of them getting killed but they also know we pay their families expenses and they don't have to worry about that. What is more important for the soilders is that we support them in Iraq. Wrong or right history will be the final judge of the situation.

28. bill is so poular in america,because this nation is filled with ignorant head in the sand ya hoo's.the intelligent ones don't need to come up with names to convince these people that the right is wrong in a lot of there positions.they seem to always take the oppisite,even if it is wrong.why hasn't anyone asked where the 16 billion dollars is that was lost in irag at the hands of the bush administration.6 semi's full of new american dollars.363 tons.why? because the nation was to caught up in anna nicoles death then to ask where the money went.it is a real shame,but seeing how the little c students run this country and the people who continue to support them even when they are blatenly wrong is really a shame.it's funny how bill talks about the site being vile,i'll bet the women he sexually insulted a few years back(that got quickly swept under the carpet)fells the same about bill.

29. Me thinks that our Republican neo-con friends are getting rather desperate, at least if one is to judge by their language on these boards. As far as O'Reilly goes, I do tune in sometimes, read his book, etc. I do so, not to obtain any knowledge or understanding, but because at times I love to "chuckle" and remind mystelf that prior to speaking or writing I should study issues, lest I turn into another O'Reilly. That possibility is to horrible to even contemplate.

30. One of the refrains from the neo-cons who are paralyzed in fear is "We have to fight them over there so that we don't have to fight them here" The sentence is quite interesting as it shows us the color of these chicken hawks. They are all "here", undoubtedly well esconced on their well burnished backsides. They don't mind spilling blood, just as long as it isn't theirs.
