O’Reilly: Taliban Resurgence In Afghanistan Is A ‘Myth’

Yesterday on Fox News, host Bill O’Reilly tried to argue that Afghanistan has been “successful” and that “there’s no danger at all of the Taliban reclaiming that country.” At the worst, he said, the Taliban will be “annoying.” When his guest, Harvard University professor Sarah Sewall, pointed out that people on the ground disagree, O’Reilly dismissed her, stating, “I talked to everybody.”

pressing the flesh in crowds of people in the city markets, I'll concede O'Reilly's point.

How about it?

we see how long before he pisses his pants.

And how does General Oreilly know this????

a better word.

then it's almost for sure that it's happening.

His reliability has got to be way up in the 90% range somewhere. You just have to know how to read him.

I don`t watch o`relly but i`m sure he talks about (satan) Pelosy every day.

And gee there's so many more such news reports. And not one of them mentions Mr. O'Really.

Stephen Colbert's "truthiness" seems applicable here.

:rofl:

And O'Reilly has just been selected queen of the May.

Better adjust the meds -- he's in oxycontin withdrawal again.

And your top ratings for your show is a myth..............
