Bill Moyers Invites O'Reilly To Moyers & Company

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on October 15, 2012 · Flag

With gentle barbs and humor - but no finger pointing or shouting - Bill Moyers did a devastating take down of Bill O'Reilly's attack on him as "the poster child for the federal deficit." After highlighting many of O'Reilly's falsehoods and mistakes, Moyers invited him for "a civil conversation about our differences. No editing. No tricks. I'll even introduce him to our fact checkers, some of the best in the world. We use them, too."

Moyers concluded with "one word of warning: Big Bird’s a friend of mine. And we public television types stick together, like birds of a feather. Besides, he’s bigger than both of us."

Moyers said this is just the latest of many invitations that Moyers has extended to O'Reilly.

Why is O'Reilly hiding under his desk?

If only he would, Mr. Moyers, as I’d love to see you politely kick his arrogant arse. But his cowardly and controlling ego most likely won’t allow him to come on your show. Heck, he still has yet to take up Media Matters’ David Brock on his offer to discuss their differences.

THE BIG THREE
Republicans 1980-2009 controlled Presidency for 20 years—Senate for 18 years-House for 12 years-6 years of total control
In those 20 years our budget went to 3500 Billion from 600 Billion under Carter.
Of course Clinton added a little of that 2900 increase.
The Big 3 took Carter under 1000B debt to 10,000.
Took Clinton surplus to a 1400B deficit. First time to exceed 1000B.
Took Carter record job creation of 218,000 per month down to 99,000 per month.
“Initiated” our involvement in 10 foreign conflicts. In 12, Carter + Clinton=0
The Big 3 had recession in all or part of 7 years.
The Big 3 destroyed our wonderful Savings and Loan Industry which was instrumental in the housing boom for Middle Class 1945-1980.
The Big Three smashed our Housing Industry. !945-1980, it took 2.5 years of average income to buy an average size home to 5.4 years.
The Big Three allowed Wall Street to Outsource entire Industries and in past decade close 58,000 plants. I can show plenty in my home town.
The Big Three alienated 1500 Million Muslims by invading their destitute unarmed Iraq
of only 15 million adults. What had those 15M done to us?

Doors, you took my point, lol. Moyers has invited O’Reilly on a few times, but O’Reilly won’t do it. Given that about the only place he can win a debate is on his own show, with heavy editing, loaded questions, and mic cutting… I don’t blame him.

No editing. No tricks. Fact-checking.

No way in hell O’Falafel will appear on Moyers. Not under those ridiculous conditions. Damm that no-good liberal mainstream media!!!!

This is not the first time that Moyer invited Bill to be on his program. The first time was when Fox ambushed Mr. Moyer to the result they were not expecting…http://youtu.be/Y_2IZT4VgDY

Cowardly Bildo will accept Moyers’ challenge for a civil discussion when KKKlannity mans-up and gets waterboarded for charity.

As Mr. Rogers might have put it, “Can you say ‘never’”?
