On January 23, 2013, Bill O'Reilly read an email from a woman reacting to his segment on late-term abortion (in which he once again defamed Dr. George Tiller). In response to the woman's criticism of men interfering with women's reproductive choices, O'Reilly scolded: My job is to protect the kids and I will continue to do it.
In his email segment, O'Reilly read an email from “Cindy, I'm withholding your last name, lives in Connecticut:”
O'Reilly, you men have no business telling any woman she can't have an abortion.
O'Reilly responded:
The subject was New York State allowing abortions for pretty much any reason in the third trimester, Cindy. If, like Governor Cuomo, you support that, you'd better hope, you'd better hope there's no Judgment Day. My job is to protect the kids and I will continue to do it.
I have also never- not once- seen him “protect the kids” on any other issue that involves them. He doesn’t care about safer play areas, he doesn’t care about better education, he doesn’t care about pediatric health… when something’s newsworthy in these areas, he sides with the person hurting the child. Every time.
If O’Reilly can muster up enough honesty to admit that his sole interest in the abortion/contraception issue is that it’s a front for him to try “putting women in their place” without being called a misogynist, I’ll only bother him again the next time he goes “x” amount over the line, because at least he’s admitting it.
Until then, his so-called academic record is just another lie, as far as I’m concerned. I’ve seen him behave, but I’ve never seen him be as intelligent as they claim.
Sandman; how is that a contradiction? I didnt say I dislike ALL women because some have children to collect governement money. i said I dislike women who have children to collect government money. In no way did I condemn ALL women with that statement.
First, both of those “statements” were YOU’RE words-not mine.
Second, if you can find the word “ALL” in MY statement I’d be happy to appologize.
Lastly, everyone else understood your “contradiction” very clearly and you’re lack of understanding does not help your argument.
You claim incessantly that you want a “debate” but you actually behave like a pre-radio speaker standing on a kitchen stool or soapbox at Hyde Park Corner: declamatory, eyes and especially ears closed tight. The sort of thing one does simply to get a reaction, any sort of reaction as proof that one actually exists.
If I remember my Dr. Spock of anon, that sort of attention-seeking is typical of the age group he called the “terrible twos”, i.e., infants who, being pretty much ignored by their parents, will misbehave in order simply to be noticed … at the cost of being punished. Any attention is better than no attention at all. Time to grow up, lad.
Again, you use different wording to justify it for yourself. Pathetic is defending child murder. Pathetic is saying its ok to murder them because you use a technical name for them.
If you dont have a problem with killing children then it says a lot about you as a human being.
I wouldnt be shocked if some of you watch abortion videos just for kicks.
You dont want to call it a child because then you would have to admit that you support killing children; which you do. When they pull out a baby thats 6 months along and shove a pair of scissors in the back of his/her neck thats killing a child.
And I have never claimed to speak for all conservatives. Again, you people lie and make things up to make your point. Hint: when you have to lie to make your point you dont really have one.
Doesn’t make a lot of sense, does it? Neither does orally and those who present those half-assed “arguments” as facts and/or moral guidance.
The bottom line is, if you are not female, you really have zero say. Well, maybe one sperm-cell’s worth of influence, that would be it.

“And the actions of one don’t reflect conservatism as a whole. One man saying something like that(If he really did, which I doubt) isn’t a reflection of all conservatives.”
“What I do have a problem with is women who intentionally have children so they can collect more goverment money; and it does happen.”
Kinda contradict yourself @umad with previous remarks of condemning the many for the acts of the few.
You guys dont want them called kids or children because (hopefully) it makes you feel bad about the fact that you’re supporting the murder of a child.
Did you read or hear the item about the pedophile priest? If you did it wasn’t on FNC or at our web site! When it comes to protecting the kids we protect our church first!!
I hate abortion fully as much as any so-called “pro-lifer” but the the way to reduce the demand for abortion is to reduce the risks of unwanted pregnancies, i.e. through contraception. All other ways have always enhanced resulted in a boom in the numbers of abortions performed on kitchen tables.
O’Reilly is a mean-minded, hypocritical, bigoted old fool who still believes what his mummy told him as a child: i.e. that he’s the bestest, bestest little fellah (aka God) in this whole wide world.
