By Bill O'Reilly for BillOReilly.com
Friday, September 5, 2008

Like him or not, you have to give Barack Obama credit for waging a smart, focused campaign. Destroying the Clinton machine was a major achievement and so was putting together a successful convention in Denver. Obama is now firmly a part of U.S. history, no matter what happens in the presidential election.

The problem some Americans continue to have with the Senator is that he is long on charisma but short on detail. This frightens some voters. Who the heck is this guy, anyway? So when Obama finally agreed to speak to me this week, specifics were on my mind.

First, the man. The Barack Obama I witnessed is self-confident, determined and driven. He was acutely aware of his surroundings from the moment he entered the room. He looks you in the eye and touches your shoulder. He understands how to connect one-on-one.

As far as philosophy goes, Senator Obama is convinced that the federal government should be in control of income distribution and, to some extent, should regulate the free marketplace. That is a classic liberal position, and Obama promotes it well.
The Senator also believes that poor Americans have a basic right to free health care and monetary supplements from the government with no strings attached. The American substance abuser, for example, would derive the same benefit as a hard working, laid off worker would. Again, classic liberalism. No judgments made regarding entitlements.

So, if Barack Obama does become president, there will definitely be change. His left-wing base will demand it, and he will come through. You can decide if that's change we should believe in, but keep in mind that the unintended consequences of government interference in the marketplace are impossible to predict. Free markets have a way of chafing under government imposition.

On the foreign policy front, Obama has convinced me that he is tough but cautious. He rose up quickly because he vehemently opposed the Iraq war. But now I see a man who understands the victory that has taken place in Iraq. I don't believe he wants to screw that up. I could be wrong.

After going mano-a-mano with Obama on television, I am also persuaded that he is a sincere guy-that he wants the best for all Americans. He's an ideologue, but not a blind one. He understands that his story is incredible, and, I have come to believe, he is grateful to the American system for allowing it happen.

It is true that we don't know whether Senator Obama has the ability to solve complex problems, but you can say that about all presidential contenders.

Like most politicians, Obama has used guile and good luck to accumulate his power. He can be ruthless, kind, unfair, and generous. In short, he's a real person trying to achieve an unreal position-that of the most powerful person in the world.

God help him.

i typically don't like Bill O'reilly, but this is definitely not a smear job. This is on point with basically everything i have read/heard about Obama.

I think Bill O was reasonably fair, given his leanings. Obama came out of that interview just fine.

McCain-Palin's outright lies are another issue.

Ohhhh, Okay, so your 'source' are those Extremely Left Wing and ''Totally Biased'' Socialist folks over at 'Media Matters'.
Yeah, there's a real reliable source for ya!

I can tell that trying to reason with someone like you would be about the same as me trying to break through a brick wall with my friggin head.

I now know enough about you and your views to avoid getting into it any further.

So verbatim transcripts from the Washington Post, AP, CNN's American Morning, CNN's The Situation Room, ABC's Good Morning America, CNN's Anderson Cooper 360 aren't good enough for ya, eh? Or the Wall Street Journal (also cited, twice). Glad to see you have a diverse list of media sources, or that you like to address the issues instead of denigrating the source.

Ignornce is bliss, I guess. Keep watching FOX and enjoying staying stupid.

i think warpe did a pretty good job of diversifying sources there. the wsj is conservative. however, i will read cnn articles and what not, because they reflect liberal opinions a lot, just like fox reflects conservative, but i won't bother with crap like mediamatters on moveon, because they are a total joke. you may say, well you need to diversify media outlets, but why would i read something where i dont trust the people and in all probability will be lying through their teeth?

go ahead, commence with fox jokes that they lie through their teeth, but you will be wasting your time. btw, referring to the royal 'you'.

Proven by whom? And the Wall Street Journal is a conservative newspaper, far from 'in the tank' for Obama.

I don't think ANY single news source should be trusted to relay the truth, that's why I have many. Left wing partisan Obamamaniac bloggers make me laugh just as much as those morning bobbleheads on FOX. There are extremes on both sides and I just try to have a good handle on how a story is being handled by a variety of media sources. People have a tendency to not pay attention to media they have already decided they don't agree with, which I think is a mistake. It just makes your view of the world narrower than it should be. You should watch Olbermann for the same reason I watch Bill O - so you know what he''s saying and as an excuse to yell at the TV

This argument cuts both ways. Why does Bill O constantly ridicule to the left wing in such derogatory terms? Because he wants everyone to think like him. You need voices on both ends of the spectrum and everything in-between to keep everyone honest.

no idea, i have been quite out of the loop recently.

i just don't like that asshole bill o'reilly. his methods are lowly and scumlike.

MO:
bill invites someone he's going to smear over.
bill asks him or her a complex question, which you can answer with yes/no but this answer will never be good, unless you explain its context.
interviewee answers yes/no, then tries to explain
bill will at this point interrupt him/her 70 times with contra-arguments which are exactly the same as the question, just differently worded or vaguely related.
interviewee keeps on trying to explain
bill strikes again
interviewee gets mad
bill says AHA, point made
rinse, repeat.

of course he'll sometimes balance his range, by inviting someone he likes over and having the most civil interview ever, probably with cups of tea included.

and people watch this, sensationalist pricks think this is good journalism. this isn't. its just an opinionated prick not allowing anyone else in the whole world who has a different opinion than him, to express it.

oh, and I see you bring over and over the ratings into play. there is one simple fact, will: the masses are stupid. unbelievably stupid.

if the masses were not stupid, ron paul would now be the republican candidate. all that had to be done was portray him as enough of a lunatic over and over again to the masses, and boom, the powers that be get what they want.

Compared to Canadian media, not even close. I watch mostly cable news outlets for American news (CNN, MSNBC, occasional FOX to find out what they're saying) then CBC/CTV for Canadian and world news and BBC, plus Bloomberg and BNN for business news. What Americans call a 'liberal' media is pretty middle of the road stuff. .[/quote]

That pretty much explains your left leaning stance then.
If American partisan liberalism in the media is not even close to the partisan liberalism in Canada's media, then what are we arguing about? You'll never accept my views and I'll never accept yours. Case closed.
Most Liberals think that killing living unborn human babies is okay, Most Conservatives don't.
Most Liberals think that it's okay to weaken our Military, Most Conservatives don't.
Most Liberals think that the Government should tax the backs of the working citizens while giving out handouts to the lazy ones (The so called Underprivelaged) in society and Most Conservatives disagree.
Etc...Etc...
This entire argument is moot and the political can of worms should remain closed seeing as it really has no place whatsoever in a Poker Forum.
If you want to post your Political "opinions", then be prepared to be challenged by others who do not see things the same way that you do.

The_OG_Rocco is like the conservative version of partisan liberals who make stupid blanket statements like "Conservatives are warmongering murderers" or "Conservatives want to repeal woman's rights back to the point where they don't have a vote" or "<misc inflamatory hyperbole>".

dude...

Being unable to discuss politics is basically admitting that you're a partisan with such thick blinders that you can't even consider that someone else might have a point.

I'm always prepared to be challenged, civilly and intelligently, as will641 and others can attest to, so fire away. So far though, you haven't really offered much other than to denigrate my sources and my intelligence. Care to talk about the issues? Or is your mind too closed for that?

Lies...

Quote:

Out of bounds! McCain misstates Obama sex-ed record
By Margaret Talev | McClatchy Newspapers

WASHINGTON — Throw the flag against: The McCain-Palin campaign.

Call: Unsportsmanlike conduct.

What happened: A new 30-second TV ad attacks Barack Obama's record on education, saying that Obama backed legislation to teach "'comprehensive sex education' to kindergartners." The announcer then says, "Learning about sex before learning to read? Barack Obama. Wrong on education. Wrong for your family."

Why that's wrong: This is a deliberately misleading accusation. It came hours after the Obama campaign released a TV ad critical of McCain's votes on public education. As a state senator in Illinois, Obama did vote for but was not a sponsor of legislation dealing with sex ed for grades K-12.

But the legislation allowed local school boards to teach "age-appropriate" sex education, not comprehensive lessons to kindergartners, and it gave schools the ability to warn young children about inappropriate touching and sexual predators.

Republican Alan Keyes tried to use Obama's vote against him in the 2004 U.S. Senate race. At the time, Obama spoke about wanting to protect young children from abuse. He made clear then that he was not supporting teaching kindergartners about explicit details of sex.

Obama spokesman Bill Burton said Tuesday of McCain's ad: "It is shameful and downright perverse for the McCain campaign to use a bill that was written to protect young children from sexual predators as a recycled and discredited political attack against a father of two young girls."

It's like trying to reason with a bunch of mules who refuses to budge.

rocco word to the wise. ive been posting here a little more than a year, and it just makes life so much easier when you try to avoid pissing contests. tbh you started it by telling warpe its like talking to a wall or w/e. i know, when i disagree with ppl on ftr and the internet in general its really easy to start talking shit, but when you don't talk shit, or limit it substantially, you might find your life easier. im guessing right now all you can think about is trying to prove warpe or whoever wrong. if thats the case just do what i said and you wont find interweb wars ruining your day. at least thats the way it was for me.

I just can't stand it when one side bloviates, it drives me crazy.
yes, I heard the word Bloviates on the O'Reilly Factor, I guess viewing that program makes me a stupid moron in the views of some people here. Oh well.

Ban? Why? because I defended myself against being called stupid?
Typical of any lib. If you don't agree with them, silence them, if you can't silence them then ban them.
Pathetic.

Wow, Its been two days and someone allready called me stupid because of my Conservative views. I guess that its okay for the 'senior residents' of this forum to shit on the newbys chest but if the newby throws that same shit back at ya it's inappropriate? Hypocritical don't you think?

Hey Warpe,
Remember this quote from YOU?
When you decided to stop acting civil and intelligent and lowered yourself to name calling because of my conservative viewpoints, then this is the result. "ARGUING!"
What a hypocrite you are.

Pathetic

Ohhh and of course childish name calling is necessary since this is about politics so, Twat.

It really is not hard to talk about politics or religion.

You discuss it like you discuss science. You present your argument with sources, someones refutes your argument with their source you can then try to debunk their sources or counter argument. State things in a neutral but factual way, obviously slanting statements get you no where factual statements you can back up rock!

When people say stuff like
"trying to reason with someone like you would be about the same as me trying to break through a brick wall with my friggin head."
That is 1. condescending towards the person you are talking to. And 2. does not get you any further in proving your point.

or "Typical of any lib."
Yeah blanket statements like this prove nothing. Other than to upset people.

or "If you don't like my response, then don't open up a can of worms."
This is bullshit. This is a MESSAGE board...

"Most Liberals think that killing living unborn human babies is okay, Most Conservatives don't.
Most Liberals think that it's okay to weaken our Military, Most Conservatives don't.
Most Liberals think that the Government should tax the backs of the working citizens while giving out handouts to the lazy ones (The so called Underprivelaged) in society and Most Conservatives disagree. "
Three blanket statements that are stated in a negative and positive way. Bad form my friend.

And before you call me w/e liberal slur you want to. I do not associate myself with any party or conservative/liberal movement.
I am for killing unborn babies, pro welfare/helping the needy, pro military (anti stupid war though), anti-religion in politics, pro gay marriage, and pro limited federal government interference (let states decide).
As you can see I have a fair amount of liberal and conservative views.

Because you'd rather insult (a whole country in this case) when someone doesn't agree with you than discuss points or reasoning. I'm all for arguments, there just has to be substance to them.

Warpe wanted you to enjoy staying stupid, implying that Fox News makes viewers so. Therefore this means all Canadians are liberal, and stupid as a result? That doesn't make Warpe right, but see the irrational and insulting jumps you made there?

ProZach's post is a good one. There are a ton of Conservatives here and for the most part, everybody is pretty respectful and reasonable. It doesn't have to get personal.
