O’Reilly, McGuirk And Gutfeld Double Down On Smearing Hillary Clinton And Her ‘Fake’ Concussion

Posted by Ellen -394pc on January 06, 2013 · Flag

In a nauseating discussion Friday night, Bill O’Reilly, Greg Gutfeld and Bernard McGuirk showed just how mean-spirited and small-minded they are as they not only failed to admit that Hillary Clinton is owed an apology from the people on their network who accused her of faking a concussion but suggested that she deserved it. And then attacked the left for faking their concern.

The discussion began with O’Reilly asking if “critics” should apologize to Hillary Clinton for suggesting she had faked her concussion to avoid testifying about Benghazi.

Gutfeld sneered that nobody really cared about Clinton’s health, she was merely being used by the left to attack the right, but oh, by the way, Foxies were right in doubting her:

If you want to apologize to her, I guess that’s OK but never apologize to people who are criticizing you over being skeptical because they really don’t care. All they want is a scalp of contrition. These people don’t care about her health. What they’re trying to do is come after you. And by the way, you’d have to be an idiot not to be skeptical of anything that’s going on related to Benghazi because the Casey Anthony homicide case has been handled better than Benghazi.

O’Reilly didn’t just fail to challenge that disgusting remark, he endorsed it. “Gutfeld is actually making a good, valid point… The critics who are demanding an apology don’t really care about Mrs. Clinton’s health, they just want to try to embarrass their ideological opposition," O'Reilly said.

Gutfeld added, “I would even go even further and say that they don’t mind that she’s sick because it helps them prove their point.”

That was going “over the line,” according to O’Reilly.

Gutfeld, who always thinks that being a wise guy makes him look smart, rather than asinine, said, “I want to go over the line, damnit!”

McGuirk jumped in:

Let me point out about the critics of the skeptics. They didn’t really speak out until after she was hospitalized with the blood clot because they themselves were skeptical. They didn’t start speaking out until this past week in a loud way… And if you were not skeptical of the Clintons, you were either a sucker or a sycophant. As much as we respect her intelligence and her work ethic...

McGuirk is wrong about that. We criticized Fox News for their arrogant heartlessness before she was hospitalized. So did Media Matters and The Atlantic. Fox's own Greta Van Susteren did, too.

But O’Reilly agreed with McGuirk. “There has been a history there of not being really up front,” O'Reilly said. But, he added, “We all want Hillary Clinton to get better.”

“Without a doubt,” McGuirk said, as Gutfeld nodded.

“You like her, you don’t like her, we don’t wish physical ill on anyone. Mental ill? Yes,” O’Reilly quipped.

I’m sure that made Mrs. Clinton feel ever so much better.

Why hasn’t POS borally quit his ALL SPIN FACTOR like he promised he would if President Obama raised his taxes?

POS borally should first apologize for being a liar, then he should apologize for being an asshole.

Gutfart is humor for teabaggers who find D-List Dennis Miller too cerebral.

So instead of doing the right thing and admitting that some apologies are due Clinton (with BOR perhaps giving a mea culpa for his own piling on), these 3 bozos used the matter to attack the “critics” who asked for the apologies? Geeez, nicely done, BOR – deliberately set up a segment in which you and your cohorts attack/make bogus accusations against these “critics” (who are largely from left-wing outlets which you despise) while providing cover for those in the right-wing media (which you are a part of). How convenient.

As AAP so aptly noted, BOR brought on a couple of jackasses who are well-known for their tacky remarks and sophomoric attitudes so that he could look like the more noble one in the room. This is one of BOR’s favorite (and more laughable) tactics when he feels the need to pimp up his supposed “fair & balanced” cred.

Regarding McGuirk’s inaccurate claim that no one was speaking out until Clinton’s blood clot was announced, I have no doubt that BOR knew his claim was not true. Come in, BOR, how about giving the folks the facts of the matter? Of course, had you told the whole truth, it would have greatly lessened the impact of the segment’s bias. So agenda trumps truth, BOR?

And to BOR’s comments about the the “critics” wanting to “try to embarrass their ideological opposition” and that the Clintons have a history of “not being really up front”, my hypocrisy meter maxed out. Pot, kettle, black, BOR.

@kent Brockman; I had heard that before, but a daily reminder is greatly appreciated.

No matter how loudly, or repeatedly it is said, a lie is still a lie. And this lie borders on lible (and slander, if it was posted on the Faux Noise website).

Fox pandering to the pathetically ignorant amongst us, again!

On the theory that the apple falls not far from the tree, I don’t have to wonder what the senior William O’reilly was like considering the creep his son has turned out to be. What you say Billo? Blame it on Daddy???

It’s pathetic and immature that they can’t say “We don’t respect this woman, so we wont apologize.” But then blame their bad manners on their critics because the critics may lack genuine heartfelt concern! Ha. It’s just a soap opera of childish overwrought emotionalism starring Bill as Erica Cain. Cue the violins and estrogen. It’s hysterical that they willingly embarrass themselves like this. It’s bizarre that this might entertain anyone.

More idiotic crap from Mr. I-don’t-do-personal-attacks.

SHOULD CRITICS APOLOGIZE TO HILLARY CLINTON?

No, dumbass. They don’t have to apologize. Just keep acting like the mentally and facially challenged Gutfeld, unaware he is playing with his own feces.

Billdo is doing a great job showcasing his hypocrisy. He brings two other major a-wholes to rehash the smears and then HE, Billdo gets on his tall pony of good will.

From the same rabid Billdo who nearly called Hillary Clinton the B-word. Billdo was unhinged. He was co-hosted in his radio show by E.D. Hill, she tried to soothe the raging Billdo and he snapped back

“This is my show!
You know what these people tried to do to me?!
They tried to silence me!
They sent the IRS after me!
Don’t tell me to shut up!”

Well done, Billdo.

No need to soil your hands when help like Gutfeld is available to wipe your rabid a-hole.

McGuirk always reminds me of one of the miscreant micks seen in the movie “Gangs of New York”.

Note to Killer O’Reilly

Ever heard the joke about the woman-hating TV BlowHard who had his sexually harassing phone calls taped and was so impressed with the results he paid $2 million for the masters? A real knee-slapper!

O’Liesalot and crew confirm the fact that Faux Snoooze is entertainment and not news. They even fail at entertainment.
