Bill O'Reilly Jokes About Waterboarding His Staff

Bill O'Reilly discussed with Shepard Smith today why he held back the full tape of Rev. Jesse Jackson caught by Fox News on a hot mic.

"I'm not in the business of hurting Jesse Jackson, because it does hurt Jesse Jackson," he said. "And I'm not in the business of creating some kind of controversy that is not relevant to the general subject: one civil rights leader disparaging another, over policy. So we held it back. Some weasel leaked it to the internet. That person wants to hurt Jesse Jackson."

"Do we know who leaked it, and what's happened to that person?" Smith asked.

"No, but I've got the waterboard right over here," O'Reilly responded.

hey his staff wants to work for him....so let em have fun they were all made for each other.

I'd pay a lot of money to be able to waterboard Bill O'Reilly :-)

I want to know where he hides his Loofa!

[Birdman]

I have an idea lets set up a raffle drawing charge 50 dollars a ticket, the winner gets to water board O'Really. The proceeds could go to pay down the deficit, I figure we do that for O'really and a frew other propeller heads like Rash Limpbal and a few other haters of America, one a month we would be in the black in about one years time.

[JayDDrew]

Pay down the deficit? Heck, you could solve world hunger, poverty and the AIDS problem if you made that offer public!
Seriously, do you expect more from him and his ilk? This is the "I'm better than you" thinking that leads us to kill hundreds of thousands of brownskinned people (Iraqi civilians) on the other side of the world by linking them to other brownskinned people (the 9-11 terrorists) with whom they have no connection.
Sure, OReilly hasn't a clue who "leaked" the Jackson clips. Just like Bush didn't have a clue who leaked Valerie Plame's identity.

[Daniboy]

I'd give a $100 to get Al Franken!!

[mindlessmissy]

That was No joke ... The man is THAT sick ...

[thegreatgiginthesky]

How about we waterboard you B-ill? Are you willing to submit to that you grade A p-ussy

[edwarvir]

Alright you guys I did it, I did it I can not tell a lie I chopped down my
fathers Cherry Tree. LOL

[loax]

God, what a disgusting little wesel OReilly is. I cannot stand to even look at him! I love how Keith Olberman smacks him down every time Billy Bubba opens his fat mouth and says something stupid like" I have the waterboard". Believe in torture do you, you little creep.

[protagonia]

Some trolls like him, and some trolls simply say they like him because they are paid to. Sad, to have to pay someone to pretend they like you. Keith O has no such funds. His fans are genuine.

I think a more brutal punishment would be to force them to report the news objectively.

[Nolewoman]

I like that idea. He would implode.

[kissmygrits]

F--k it! We'll DO IT LIVE! WE'LL DO IT LIVE!!! (That's my billo impression, but it loses something without the fat, red face.)

[PAposter]

No it doesn't, I can still see it, I'm LMFAO!

[NABNYC]

KO would be proud of you. Very funny. I can see him now, standing up, ripping his jacket off. Do It Live.

[venicesurfer]

every

[venicesurfer]

you people get so uppidy about everything little thing.

[Cybesq]

it's not uppidy (SIC), it's called No Spin Reality Zone. I heard O'Lielly say the other day that Chris Dodd's 3/8 of a point savings on his Countrywide mortgage was a HUGE deal that the mainstream media wasn't reporting. THAT"s uppity.

By the way, Venice Surfer is an oxymoron. It's like calling yourself Molehill Rock Climber.

Looking in my crystal ball I see a worse person in world nod for Billo

[nonconformist2]

Billo doesn't NEED to waterboard his staff. If he wants to make them suffer, all he has to do is tie them to a chair and force them to water hours and hours of his show. They will be BEGGING to be waterboarded instead!

[ComnCents]

Is there something wrong with my monitor
or has Orally been eating too many oranges ?

[nogimmicks]

Everybody who jokes about torture or murder is an a--hole to say the least. In Bill's defense I would just say that he does not have much choice, - Murdoch's and Chernin's puppets must be obedient, or they will be thrown away. People who are even worse, however, are the torture theorists, like the Harvard Alan Dershowitz, and the torture legislation enablers e.g. Cheney, Schumer, Feinstein and Mukasey.

[Grannysue]

I don't believe we should be waterboarding anyone, however, for Bill O and everyone on the Right I would make exception, especially Bush/Cheney/Rove et al!
