Bill Sexual Harassment O'Reilly: "Anti-Bush Press Puts Us All In Danger"
Military Action and Iran
Wednesday, April 12, 2006
By Bill O'Reilly

The media is making a big deal out of a report that the Pentagon has been planning a military scenario, in case Iran will not stop its nuclear weapons program. Apparently, that has horrified some in the press. But, once again, the outrage is phony and political, designed to denigrate the Bush administration. I mean, come on. If the Pentagon isn't studying military options against Iran, President Bush should be impeached. Iran presents a huge threat to America, does it not?

On Monday, that country announced it has enriched uranium for the first time, a key step towards developing nuclear weaponry. Of course, diplomacy has to be given every chance. But, if it fails, the USA might have to use force against Iran. So, planning for every contingency is a must, is it not? So, what's the big deal here? Planning is planning. And the Bush administration has a responsibility to examine worst-case scenarios. The press hysteria over this is a joke. Any president, short of Howard Dean, would want to know the military options. "Talking Points" has stated that there are some Americans who would allow Iran to develop nukes and do nothing, and some of those people are members of the media. But the larger issue is for the anti-Bush press to continue capitalizing on the Iraq mess and pound the administration into pudding by painting a "Dr. Strangelove" scenario. You have to see that movie to know what I'm talking about, but it's out-of-control military.

Now, there is no question that the Bush administration has made tactical errors in the Iraq war. And now those errors are being used by the Bush haters to undermine any future military action. This, of course, is extremely dangerous. Iran, as I said, is a very real threat. And if you think the U.N. is going to stand up to that threat, you need to get Dorothy and Toto off your front lawn. The time has come for all Americans to be honest. The Iraq military campaign has not gone well. That's the truth, but it's still winnable. And a victory would be good for the USA in the overall war on terror. That's the truth.

Iran's government wants to hurt Americans. Thus, allowing them nukes is reckless. That's the truth. And, finally, the anti-Bush media is relentless in trying to undermine the president, and will not stop, no matter what the issue. Again, truthfully, that puts us all in grave danger.

1. But anti-Clinton press never did
So Bush starts an unnecessary war, and now we're not supposed to dissent because he's the war president. How... convenient. Never stopped the Republicans with Clinton.

3. I must agree.
It's funny what the differences are.

Trent Lott's own "We can support the troops and not the president" won him awards back then, but anybody saying it now would be in a bad spot indeed.

6. I thought O'Reilly wasn't going to trust Bush anymore
Bill loudly (as is his wont) proclaimed that he would never trust the Bush administration again if it turned out that Saddam didn’t have those ol’ debbil weapons of mass destruction. Well, there were no WMDs, but that doesn’t stop Blotchy Bill from regurgitating every hiccup and fart out of this corrupt administration as if it was the gospel truth.

You’re a sucker, Mr. O’Reilly. A willful, hapless sucker. You should get off the air for the good of the nation.

8. We aren't through with Bush's first mistake yet!
So, Bill, let's not go looking for more trouble, OK? Especially when there is no immediate danger. Experts in America have said it will be several years minimum before Iran could have any nuke weapons ready to go. We're not in a big hurry to do anything. A lot of things can change in two years.

Oh...and one more thing, Bill: go F*CK yourself, Nazi.

10. Wasn't somebody raising money to send him to Iraq?
Better go to the Green Zone, Bill. It's very safe there.

14. Who has Iran "threatened"?
To the East Pakistan Korea and India, to the West Israel and Europe, to the North Russia and China. All with Nuclear bombs. None have been invaded by the USA since they had them. South America, Phillipines, Vietnam, Cambodia, Grenada, Iraq etc. No bombs. All attacked by USA. If I were an Iranian I would impeach my president if he was not trying to get similar weapons.

16. O'Reilly is spinning again. Military contingency planning ...
... against Iran is necessary, and I assume that almost every Dem leader would agree.

O'Reilly is just lying again. These reports about Bush thinking about tactical nukes and military strikes don't "denigrate the Bush administration" in any way. They are simply factual -- something that really alarms the O'Reilly's of the world. This information about what the Bush administration is thinking about doing in Iran is coming from somewhere. Hmm. Where might a leak like that come from?

The fact is that Bush has to consider military options against Iran. The fact is that if not for Bush's incompetence and foolishness, we would not be where we are now. If people are scared by the facts, they damned well should be. But that's not the media's fault. They didn't create the facts. They are just finally reporting them.

O'Loofah is a pitiful little thing. It must be awful being him.
