    You have a real problem with knowing definitions don't you? Now I'm just a high school dropout with a GED, but I know the difference between a lie and mistake and the difference between a NEWS guy and a commentator. I also know it's not as bad as a commentator to lie as it is for Presidents and those going to run for President to lie. But of course Obama and most of his top high personal are liars or tax cheats.

    There is a big difference between us, you'll notice I defended O'Reilly until you posted where he wrote in his book that he was on the ground in a war zone in the Falkins. Then I agreed he lied. But when I showed you that you were wrong in more Blacks being rich and where more women were keeping their maiden name, you ignored it like it never existed. You will never admit when you are wrong. You will always skip it like it never existed or admit your wrong.

    Why didn't you answer the question,instead of blindly insulting..AGAIN?

    he showed internal memos that said he was in Argentina,NOT the falklands.


    And you can't produce any of his CBS colleagues to refute what you allege he wrote in his book..

    O'Reilly claiming to have been in the Falklands warzone and covering it from thousands of miles away would be like claiming you were on the beaches of Normandy because you were in Washington DC after the war ended.

    So if what's his name who said his helicopter was shot at showed internal memos that stated he was never there that would prove that he never lied about it? As long as you have documents showing you lied you didn't lie?

    I think it's pretty funny when liberals come out in full force running cover for one of their own, especially when they make fools of themselves in he process.
    We all witnessed that when Obama was caught lying to the American people about healthcare, yet many on the left were stupid enough to defend him.

    But back to O Reilly, even if he did stretch the truth ( I don't think so) it pales in comparison to Hillary's under sniper fire and Williams RPG attack, cmon those were some doozys LOL

    O'Reilly also insisted in an interview with a US General, Wesley Clark no less, that the Malmedy massacre during WW2 was perpetrated by US soldiers against surrendering Germans, when the reverse was true. The man is not trustworthy; if he can't even get simple, well-known historical facts right...he lied, twice in this case, and not for the first time. It won't be the last either, guaranteed.

    Bill O'Reilly is now unfrocked as a purveyor of fantasy news.

    Did he see any dead bodies floating where there wasn't any water?

    You don't think he stretched the truth by claiming to be in a warzone when he was thousands of km from the warzone?

    First off, thank you for your service Sir.

    You are being logical and providing facts to prove them wrong.

    This will work with sane people, but you are wasting your time trying it with liberals.

    With all we have seen from your lying politicians and your lying media.

    How can you say that with a straight face.

    El Rushbo is the man when it comes to the truth.

    Plain to see.

    Dad has posted numerous times on here the quoted contradictions of O'Reilly. I agree, he probably is throwing out the smelly red fish. But that is the smelly red fish you have to deal with.

    O'Reilly is just a pontifical blowhard. Looking for falsehoods, exaggerations, and outright lies in anything O'Reilly says is like going to the beach and trying to find the ocean.

    Yeah. I urge you to read the following and then let's see if your claim of the corpulent cretin's veracity holds any more water than a sieve:

    The left would be the left, just as it was long before there was a Fox.

    The question you should be asking yourself is why does Fox make it so easy to be a laughing stock?

    If that were true, then why hasn't he addressed the contradictory quotes by him that tell two different stories? He never addressed that part when talking about Corn.
