Kudos to Letterman last night...

Took O'Lielly to task for being a liar. He shouldnt even have a propagandist on at all, but at least he went after him. Here is a recap from The Huffington Post, they also have video...

2. Nice to see the smackdown, but

Letterman came off as ill-prepared at times. Didn't counter o'reilly's war-on-Christmas assertions, and later admitted that he didn't watch o'reilly's show--that his opinion of o'reilly was based on what he's read.

Savouring the good stuff regardless.

3. You're right that Dave seemed ill-prepared, but I nearly wet the bed

when he told Bill that "about 60% of what you say is crap." Then he confirmed that with Paul Shaffer. It was worth missing some of the PSU overtime to watch.

4. Didn´t Paul say 60 as a question?

n/t

6. I think Dave asked him if he said 60% and Paul answered "Give or take"

Made me laugh harder because he drove the point home and didn't give Bill the opportunity for a come-back.

5. The best line for me...

...was classic Letterman.

"Let's go back to your little red and green stories."

Painting O'Reilly as the insignificant pimple that he is.
