"If you weren't a lunatic, ninety percent of America would agree with you," O'Reilly said. O'Reilly claimed that the majority of Americans and Democrats do not support withdrawal, and targeting Democrats before they even have had a chance to address anything didn't make sense. The pundit also argued that "far left" activists must believe that Americans are "stupid" since they voted for Bush in two elections. "If the country was the way you were portraying it, you'd be in Guantanamo," O'Reilly told World Can't Wait's Sunsara Taylor. Clip from O'Reilly show:
Bill O'Reilly invited a member of the anti-war activist group World Can't Wait on to his show to discuss why a Democratic press conference had been disrupted on Wednesday, but after arguing about "facts" as opposed to "opinions" the Fox News Channel host called his guest a lunatic.

love the world can't wait people. they just shouted that stupid suit down.
Didnt you love the labels O'Reilly used?? "far left" etc etc.. all for his moronic audience.. antiwar = far left
I went over to Freaker Republic a couple days ago to check out the reichwinger take on Clint Eastwood's "Letter's from Iwo Jima"- the movie about that battle from the perspective of the Japanese defenders and the Freakers fully lived down to my low expectatoins of them. Such inciteful commments. They were angered by the fact that the Japanese were portryaed as humans- and not the one dimensional caricatures of pure evil like in 1940's propaganda films. And because the overall message of the film doesn't glorify war- it is therefore "antiwar" and now Clint is suddenly a raging "PC" leftie to the freakers. In reichwinger land- unless you walk around like a lobotomized idiot spouting government pro war slogans - and have a view of war little removed from that of a child playing with plastic army guys in a sand box- you are a "liberal" to these idiots. Damn- 5 years ago that site would have had a lively discussion about such films. Now? Good grief- how pathetic. Reichwinger "conservatism" holds that all things military and all wars (waged by DC) are good- and to opposse anything having to do with the military or its idiotic elective wars is to be a "Far leftist". The rank and file of the mainstream "conservative" movement in this country is filled up with infant minded boobs- who have absolutely no grounding in real conservative political philosophy or thinkers. Their idea of a "thinker" are the cheap rented whore pundits of the DC war/welfare state like Coulter and Hannity. They couldn't be less conservative if they tried.
