If Bill thinks Michelle Obama is angrier than McAngry, then won't he want to vote for the Obamas instead?  I thought Bill and his viewers respect and appreciate anger more than those demoncRAT libtard commie homos!

Your linked photo is as meaningless.

It shows one human being at a moment in time, probably a fraction of one second, in which the person seems angry.

O'Reilly implies that she is angry a lot. That's like saying that Bill is brain dead. I've seen images of him where he does look clueless. So it must be true.

Agreed.  And it's racist.

But, sticking with the theme, how does McCain look here:

No, because she often has a pissed-off look on her face.

Quit making shite up. Racism is bad enough without people like you inventing new and clever ways to be racist.

I think what you actually mean to say: is “It’s a conservative criticizing a black woman, ergo, he’s a racist.”

Black people in this country understand that they've had a very, very tough go of it, and some of them can get past that, and some of them cannot. I don't think there's a black American who hasn't had a personal insult that they've had to deal with because of the color of their skin. I don't think there's one in the country. So you've got to accept that as being the truth. People deal with that stuff in a variety of ways. Some get bitter.

Interviewer:  But aren't you in a minority? I mean, looking at the opinion pollls, most Americans just don't agree with you. Bush is in the lead and it looks like he probably will be president again.


Tom Waits: Oh Jesus, don't say that! You know, I think between the the Democrats and the Republicans, I think the whole way they look at it, is that... Republicans say: "You take the high road, and we'll take the presidency."

Correction:

According to Nielsen Media Research, The O'Reilly Factor averaged 2.3 million viewers each night for November 2007, with 474,000 viewers in the 25-54 demographic. According to Mediaweek, "The most contested hour of each weeknight continued to be a three-way race for second place," with The O'Reilly Factor finishing first in the timeslot.[10]

I have to say that sometimes she looks hot, and sometimes not. All in all she is a fairly attractive woman. Great legs too. O'Reilly is struggling to make himself seem relevant to this election. He has boasted about having over 20 million watch his interview with Obama. What he failed to mention is that the same 4 1/2 million watched all five parts of the interview. So in O'Reilly's world that means 20 million distinct individuals tuned in to his interview. He says this stuff with a straight face. I say to hell with that old pervert. He don't sway nothing but his head as he eyeballs floozies while his wife is at home caring for his children. What a dispicable man!

One guest spends "half a day" with Michelle Obama.

The verdict?   "Lovely... very bright... very thoughtful... impressive... intelligent... great."

The other guest presumably has not met Michelle Obama, BUT has seen her "appearances and speeches" and has "tracked her career and her resume."

The verdict?  "not warm and fuzzy... a stealth Hillary Clinton."

If O'Reilly is so concerned with a candidates wife's facial expression, when are we going to put Cindy's expression under the microscope?

Michelle Obama's facial expressions have range. She has looked happy, concerned, loving, interested and at times, when she has to hear comments from a moron like O'Reilly, angry. She seems like a normal, human being.

Cindy just smiles. And smiles. And smiles.

And if I see Cindy or Sarah doing that impersonation of a seal clapping it's flippers one more time, I might just step in front of a train.

e-mail to Billy 

9/17/08 No O’Dork, you’re not running for first lady.  The only election you could win would be garbage collector. Bill O’Reilly for Sh*t picker-uppper.  What a joke you are.  What a disgrace to journalism and American values.

Do you really think Orally could be Limpbaugh for garbage collector?

I'm afraid that this is not the Solon that we've all known here, but some one posting under his presumably abandoned moniker. Have you ever known the Solon of legend to post such a short note and then depart without engaging anyone in debate. Do you think that he even COULD ignore the comments of Maxie and some of the other right wing dybbuks that we've seen in this thread without shredding them?

I hope that I'm wrong, but I think that this is a new poster using an old name.

Lady Sarah likes to kill defenseless animals with her kids but she is not angry?  Also, I've never seen Michelle angry but Hannity, Rush and Bill-O are always pissing and moaning everytime I see or hear them.

I would like Bill O'Reilly to enlighten us on what a "stealth Hillary Clinton" is. Then again, it is better if he didn't.

I'm assuming Bill is use to black women smiling and saying yes sir/massah?  We are not in the 1950-60s.  I find it amazing that if an Afircan American is not a "cheearleader" they are considered hostile or have an attitude.  Comments like those of Bill O'Reillys would piss off anyone.  He is the most ignorant bigot on TV.

Maybe she's only angry when she's looking at O'Reilly.  I tend to scowl whenever I see his face too.  Mrs. Obama sure looked happy at the DNC and on Ellen...

Anyone can read this as "sexist" and I just don't care. I've never known a COMMITTED, CONNECTED, INTELLIGENT woman who was NOT angry. They have many reasons to BE angry. Even though Odysseus warned his son, Telemachus to "never go into battle angry," anger can be the catalyst for action. Anger is a passion and passion can be very dangerous when it overcomes reason. But without a passionate need for "truth, justice, and the American Way", there will be no action taken. The strange attitude of someone like Billy O'Smarmy, who is ALWAYS angry about everything he perceives as "liberal", is unfathomable because his anger is NEVER directed at a lack of truth or justice. His anger is directed at anyone with whom he disagrees without any rationale. Michelle does not, IMO, display "anger", but passion.

Mad Max, Are you a loyal bushie? Or just a Low Information Voter?

I understand this question to be a logical fallacy, e.g., “have you stopped beating your wife yet”; but I’ll answer it anyway (even though I highly doubt you care.)

Neither. I am an informed conservative which places many of us in frequent disagreement.

I am blindly loyal to no one.

Bush has made terrible economic decisions while in office and at the same time made tremendous progress in the war on terror. McCain has immigration policy ideas I could certainly do without, and Obama has a tax-the-rich mentality that I really believe to be counter productive in a free market economy.

Just so you know; refuting someone requires more than simple-minded one liners like OK, so you're a no-information voter.

I’m certainly not impressed by your ability to live up to your name.

Come back when you can carry some sort of a meaningful dialog.

Michelle Obama does look angry. However, so did Hilary Clinton and I learned to love her so I don't think a book can be judged by it's cover. George W. looks like a slow-witted baffoon that couldn't hurt a fly but look at the damage he has done. Besides, anyone can "still frame" a video and vilify anyone.

Your right.  She's really smart.  She's smarter than me.  She's probably smarter than all of you.  Heck she's probably smarter than all of you and me put together.  She might even be smarter than my friend Michael.  No... she's probably not smarter than Michael.  He skipped the MS program and went straight to the PhD program in Electrical Engineering. 

Here's my question.  If she's so smart why does she keep putting her foot in her mouth?

Carn,

I think he might be referring to the whole "proud of my country" thing. Not to beat a dead horse, or drag this OT, but I find it amusing that the spouse of a presidential hopeful is considered by many to be unpatriotic because of a statement that was taken out of context, yet not word one from these people about the spouse of certain VP nominee who actually belonged to a group that REALLY HATES THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA...

What would you like, a link to the same quotes that everyone has heard come out of her mouth a thousand times on the radio and on television?  If she loved America so much she wouldn't have married a self-proclaimed Marxist.  I can't wait for the Gulag named after Michelle Obama.  Perhaps as the first lady she'll encourage Barack to put it in the coldest region of our country in a small town called Wasilla, AK
