Bill O'Reilly called Michael Moore a chickenshit

[CatWoman]

and said that Michael was hiding from Larry King because Larry invited Mike to be on his show -- with the stipulation that someone from the Bush White House appear alongside him. Said that Moore is scared shitless, and is now hiding from King.

He also said this was reported today in the gossip column. I forget which paper -- either the NY Daily News or the NY Post.

[newsguyatl]

1. you watch o'reilly catwoman???

shame on you :spank:

[CatWoman]

2. I was cleaning up my harddrive, and had to shut down Internet

and was channel surfing.

Came upon it by accident -- pictures of Mike were being splashed across the screen, and it piqued my curiosity.

[newsguyatl]

7. ooook, you're forgiven then

:-)

[Skittles]

32. not good enough, Midori

I will be kicking your ass.

[CatWoman]

45. get her, Streak!!!!

[indigobusiness]

14. A wise man once said "keep your friends close,

but your enemies closer".

[CatWoman]

15. heh

[shockingelk]

30. Somebody has to!

I've been a few pages away from finishing his latest book for about a month now.

[historian]

3. chickenshit?

From a man who prides himself on being learned and well educated?

[maveric]

4. I read somewhere that King cancelled Moore.

There's a thread on that somewhere in GD or LBN.

[tnlefty]

5. And I call O'Really a shithead!!!

So now we're all even steven - except that I stated an opinion based on fact!

damned spelling error!

[tridim]

6. Sue Mike, sue!

Nail that lying SOB to the wall.

[maveric]

8. Here ya go!

[Spinzonner]

9. Fair Enough

and now, in the interests of consistent policy, all future appearances by memebrs or defenders of the Administration will require a Democrat or other Bush critic to also appear to maintain 'balance'

[madinmaryland]

10. i thought o'lielly was the chicken shit

oh, i'm sorry, i meant chickenhawk
:mad:

[BronxDiva]

11. It's in today's New York Daily News

O'Reilly completely reversed the story.


"Did Larry King chicken out of an interview with Michael Moore? King's CNN producers were negotiating to have the "Fahrenheit 9/11" director appear on the prime-time talk show. They even told Moore's camp they wanted a White House rep on the show to rebut anti-Bush points made in the documentary about the superheated U.S. climate after the 9/11 attacks.

Then Moore's people never heard from King's people again.

Did the White House pressure King or his producers to keep Moore off?"

[PROGRESSIVE1]

16. "Does Larry King get aroused my being beaten by George Bush?"

That should have been the headline.

[Steven_S]

17. I would think Rove has CNN on auto-dial....

It's no secret CNN takes orders from the White House. No secret, either, that O'Rielly can't get anything right.

Welcome to DU, Diva, good to see another Bronxite.

[CatWoman]

18. Like Al Franken so wisely pegged them

Lying Liars that tell Lies.

[Ducks In A Row]

24. The WH canceled it, not Larry King

The thought of a WH mouthpiece sitting next to Michael Moore, having MM grilling him (or her). Having MM call him or her on all the lies and crap coming out of the WH.

The Bushies all filled their pants at the thought, called Larry and said "nevermind".

[newyawker99]

37. Hi BronxDiva!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[proud patriot]

12. Al Franken should be all over this tomorrow

:D

[CatWoman]

13. I'm gonna email it to the show

:hi:

[proud patriot]

28. Good call CatWoman

:hi:

[rooboy]

19. I'm sure Bill O'Reilly got it right...

did he hold up a piece of paper and wave it around in the air? That normally means his 'facts' are dead-on. :eyes:

[UTUSN]

20. MM Is Skeered of O'Whorely????--------I Don't THINK So n/t

[Vogon_Glory]

22. I Doubt Moore Is Scared of Bill Yea-, Sure-O'Really n/t

[Zen]

21. I hate to even comment on suck face. If O'Liar was gasping for his last

breath in front of me I'd put my foot over his mouth. I'd more likely perform mouth-mouth on roadkill than help that bloodthirsty lying jerk. "Let's kill every one of them over there" - O'Liar the murdering Nazi bigot.

[americanstranger]

25. Or as they say...

'I wouldn't piss on o'Reilly if he was on fire.' :)

-as

[Zen]

26. LOL - I'd piss gasoline - lol

n/m

[JohnyCanuck]

27. I wouldn't give him the sweat off my nuts

if he was dying of thirst in the desert.

[11 Bravo]

43. I'd piss on the parts that weren't burning.

satisfying for me, humiliating for him, and the bastard winds up incinerated anyway.

[livinginphotographs]

48. Hell, I'd piss on O'Reilly even if he WASN'T on fire...

n/t

[Cocoa]

23. why would the White House need to send a rep?

Larry himself is a mouthpiece.

[NYCGirl]

29. Michael Moore may be many things, but chickenshit is one thing he is not.

Michael Moore is one of the BRAVEST men around today.

(But the story from O'Reilly is ass-backwards anyway, no surprise.)

[lanparty]

31. Micheal Moore would face ANY of them ...

... in a live venue where he got to ask questions of his opponent (no shill moderator). He's amazingly factual and informative. He doesn't back away from his points. When challenged, he piles it on and gets even more vociferous about his point of view.

Michael Moore isn't like your typical Democrat who cowers anytime he thinks he's hit a landmine. When Michael Moore thinks he's stepped on a land mine, he jumps up and down to try and make it go off. Surprisingly, they rarely do for Michael Moore. The landmines of the Democrats ALWAYS go off. It turns out the landmines are programmed to detonate on FEAR!!!!!

[HEyHEY]

33. Mods may wanna delete this..but

If I ever see Bill on the street I swear I'm gonna beat the ever lovin shit outta him and take-off before the cops get there...that's a promise.

[notbush]

34. I don't think he get's to Canada that often.

[HEyHEY]

35. Good, I was bluffing

;-)

[Hello_Kitty]

36. I got your back dude (nm)

[flobee1kenobi]

38. Why not have a charity debate

Get Mr. splotchy and Moore together on PPV for a moderated debate?
all proceeds go to charity and we finnally get all grievances aired in front of the whole nation! I know M.Moore would be up for it, do you think O'Riely would even show up?
Talk about the ultimate no-spin zone!

[porphyrian]

39. Project much, O'Reilly? - n/t

[MallRat]

40. Surprise, surprise: another lie. King cancelled Moore, not vice versa.

n/t

[Q]

41. Why agree to such a 'stipulaton'?

- Since when does Larry invite guests and then demand that they appear with someone from the opposition? Looks like Larry wants to play hitman for the Bush* cabal.

- Moore shouldn't agree to appear on King's show unless he can appear alone...without some RWing crazy screaming over his every word.

[obnoxiousdrunk]

42. The most Ridiculous liar in TV History

44. FWIW

one of the BIGGEST laughs we got in the ?W Revue on Tuesday was our little parody directed at O'Liely...


To the tune of “Bill Baily”

YOU’RE JUST A CLOWN O’REILLY
BILL, PLEASE SIT DOWN!
WE’RE DIZZY FROM YOUR SPINNING!

YOU LET AL FRANKEN BAIT YOU
AND PLAYED THE FOOL
THE DEVIL GOT HIS DUE

THE POMPOUS PRETENTIOUS RAVINGS
THAT MAKE UP YOUR SHTICK
IS JUST ANOTHER RIGHT WING RANT
YOUR SHOW ON FOX–
JON STEWART MOCKS
O’REILLY WON’T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP

OH JUST SHUT UP O’REILLY
BILL PLEASE SHUT UP
WE’VE HEARD IT ALL BEFORE

TOO BAD YOUR FAUX “BEST-SELLERS”
ARE BOUGHT IN BULK
BUT BILL YOU’RE SUCH A BORE

SOON YOU’LL BE ALL ALONE IN YOUR ‘NO SPIN ZONE’
JUST CRYIN’ IN YOUR COFFEE CUP...
FAIR AND BALANCED MY ASS
YOU’RE NOTHING BUT CRASS
O’REILLY WON’T YOU PLEASE SHUT UP!

46. Liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Sorry - listen to too much Al Franken

[livinginphotographs]

47. Well, then, in the interest of fairness...

Maybe the next time Bush puts another nail in the coffin of reproductive rights, he should be surrounded by something other than old white MEN.
