The Bill O'Reilly Speech Bill O'Reilly Didn't Want You To Hear
The Bill O'Reilly Speech Bill O'Reilly Didn't Want You To Hear

Posted by Adele Stan, AlterNet at 11:51 AM on September 19, 2009.

At the Values Voter Summit last night, Bill O'Reilly locked the media out of his appearance before the religious right. Here's what he didn't want you to hear.

.................

O'Reilly continued to defend his coverage of Dr. Tiller, calling the late doctor's clinic "a racket."

............

But that didn't stop the media, who "went after me," O'Reilly complained. "They just want to attack you personally."

In fact, O'Reilly said, for a journalist to defend him would endanger that journalist's career. "If they went into a newsroom and said, 'O'Reilly got it right,' they would freeze you out," the told the audience.

He turned his focus to the injustice faced by aborted fetuses, comparing theirs to the captives held at the U.S. prison at Guantanamo Bay, saying that Guantanamo was a "nice island." Making the leap that all held at Guantanamo are terrorists -- never mind that the lives of fetuses (which he called "babies") parallel the lives of grown men -- O'Reilly said, "Do babies have to blow something up before they get human rights?"

"Some guy can drill a hole in their heads for no reason whatsoever," he said. "They have no rights."

2. Yeah, they'll probably get in the way of me and my friends.
God! Do you suppose hell is being stuck with those jerks for eternity?
I better clean up my act.
