Some people seem to think talk Fox News antagonist Bill O’Reilly attacked presidential hopeful Barack Obama during their sit down talk last night. But I don’t see it that way. The liberal media has so far handled Barack Obama with kid gloves to the point where we don’t fully know where Obama stands on the real issues.
Yes, it’s smart to be cautious but now we’re getting close to the elections and we still don’t know who Obama is. O’Reilly simply took the kid gloves off and asked Obama the tough questions.
At least the Senator handled himself very well. I found it interesting that Obama said, “I will not take the military option off the table.”
Was that a bone thrown to the conservatives who want the “oil war” to continue?
Ican’t watch the video now, cuz i’m sort of busy, but i’m gonna respond to what you wrote.
If people wanna know where obama stands on the issues, they should go do some research. I didn’t know, so i did research. So hearing ppl say that is tiring. If u watched the DNC, you could of picked up a few things. I don’t know if anyone watch the RNC, but the same could be said for the other side. All they did was talk trash, and offered no solution. And I’ll take bill o’really sersiouly wen he asks those same tough questions to the ppl that were in office. so please…….if he did it both sides, i’d rock with wat u said, but he doesn’t.
Bill O’Reilly doesn’t give good interviews because he is a KNOW IT ALL!! If you pay attention to the interview, Bill O’Reilly gets upset if you don’t see it HIS WAY! Obama did his best as being a presidential candidate. O’Reilly was asking questions that not even President Bush would answer. Bill O’Reilly doesn’t deserve answering on some of the questions he was asking because as a President, Obama’s not just going to FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT..that is what O’Reilly is looking for him to say because that is McCain’s way. Obama knows that once you CHANGE the FACE of the White House other countries will change! There is personal beef going on here that is effecting our country. Why do you think so many other countries are ScReaMinG that if America doesn’t vote for Obama that would be one of the biggest mistakes we could make. It’s because there is a lot of inside stuff going on that American’s don’t know about and the government can not and will not say. IMO!
Why do people keep saying that WE don’t know where Obama stands on issues? I know where he stands and for anyone else who wants to hop on the band wasgon with others talking bout where does he stand on issues do research will you sheesh. Have you listened to any of his speeches, most importantly the democratic speech, he addressed issues. AND I DON”T WANT TO HEAR N E ONE SAY WHAT BOUT “OUR” ISSUES
DO RESEARCH PEOPLE.
Bill O’Reilly .. Sean Hannity .. all ask slanted questions .. there is NO right answer for any of them if you don’t answer it THE RIGHT-WING Way … anywhoo .. I feel Sen Obama answered the questions JUST like he should have.
Obama ’08
no I mcCAIN’T!
The Democratic Party isn’t the Republican Party…and this election…
THAT’S ENOUGH FOR ME!!!
o’ reilly never plays, i dont care who it is he interviews.
If you don’t know who Obama is you have to find out who he is.You can’t expect someone to tell you about themselves because point blank it’s dumb sitting there talking about yourself all the time.Read a book.Read a magazine.Periodical.Journal.Read something-it’s out there!It’s fundamental.People so scared to read and research.People are not going to give you hand-me-downs.Do it yourself.Other than that, I think Obama handle the interview well because we know Bill O Reily thinks he know it all (and that’s what most Republicans think like).Nobody has the answers to everything, that’s why we have to work together.Damn I feel like I’m writing my communications paper all over again.People should know this stuff.
people who have been following obama know who he really is and what he stands for. not everyone is lost in this election.
@ kymystry,
you are completely right. with people like hanity and o’reilly there arent any right answers. just the answer they want to hear. i am happy he went on that mess of a show and handled himself like a proper candidate. not sloppy and confused like mccain. mccain is just a republican puppet. he has ran for president 3 times already. they gave him the nomination because he is already known to the people and out of all the others had the most experience( especially since this was his 3 time running)
of course obama handled himself well, why wouldn’t he?! sandra, don’t forget he’s an EDUCATED BLACK MAN…
since u can’t vote and wouldn’t vote if you could, you don’t care about him or the election anyway…
I can’t stand Bill. How you gone ask Obama questions and you wont even let the man answer the questions. What kind of Fuckatree is that? The man needs to be off the air point blank. He doesnt appreciate other opinions but his owns and for that you gets no kudos boo boo…
i am with yall, who in the world doesnt know where obama stands ? i know at least 40 million people do because they watched his speech. the liberal media ? there is no such thing, most columnist work for news services and the paper picks up there columns from their service. so if you lived in Alabama your news paper will be different than if you lived in NYC.
bill o’reilly is an ass hole and his interview was to try and rattle obama for the republican party. Obama held his own through question o’reilly knew he wasnt going to answer. but obama said bring it on and in that process you have to take on interviewers who are Hippocrates.
Well said Kymystry. Well said. I was switching back and forth between Headline News, Fox News, etc. and I could no longer sit and hear these assanines. To all of theme, Obama is an incompetent, radical communist whose ready to blow up america once he gets in office.
That’s some str8 up shyt right there…those dayum white boxes.
Obama is a politician. Is is a better candiate then Mccain it depends on which side your on(I’m an Obama Woman)
Goes back to last week short simple post that i related to so well:
ELove says:
Do I want OBAMA to win? YES
IS my life going to change once he’s elected? HELL NO
IS he the perfect candidate? NO ONE IS
Will HE make a significant change? Doubt IT
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA@ MzSuave … I get the white box too… priceless … lol
Whaaaatt?!?! Did I hear O’Reilly say we DEFEATED terroism in Iraq?? What?!?!?
*terrorism
In my 6th Sense voice “I see white boxes……”
oooohhhh, I wan to watch Bill, so bad, but my husband does not allow it UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE! Fox news is not allowed for broadcast in our home…
Negro please. Bill O’Reilly is a narrow-minded idiot who is purposely confrontational. Barack handled himself beautifully. He is more than happy to give his stance on the issues and entitled to his own views just like Bill O’Reilly’s Geraldo Rivera lookin a$$. If Bill wants to change the world and make his view the primary view of our nation then he needs to run for public office. Otherwise his opinion is no more important than mine.
Good for Bill O’ Reilly!!! I’m glad he has taken the time to be a pushy journalist in effort to discredit my and many others Democratic Presidential Nominee, Barack Obama. Not only did this interview show that Obama can make the Right judgment but also shows us and many others that he won’t be taking to much S#$T from anyone. So, let me answer your question once again. Who is he? Barack Obama, next President of the United States of America.
I’m imanih and I endorse this message.
Just look at the RNC nothing but old white rednecks and their chidren. Palin daughter is a slut bucket and isn’t her boyfriend 18 and she is 17. Wouldn’t that be an R. Kelly?????? The Re”pubes” kill me. They praising this prom queen like she is the best thing walking. If one of Obamas daughters would announced that they would drag them through the dirt. Obama went to Columbia and then Harvard one of the best schools in the country even for white people. Palin went to school where in U of Idaho? Alaska has about 800,000 people living their most of the work on the pipeline that bring Bush’s oil in. She was a mayor of tribe more so than a city. The biatch proably don’t even know what Sushi is. If McCain wins I wish that all the republican families houses foreclose and become unemployed. F**k that let’s start another Civil War!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
