Bill O’Reilly vs. Barney Frank

Back to blog

Bill O'Reily rocks. America is worth standing up for every day we draw breadths.

I hope he gives the same to at least Pelosi, Reed, Dodd and Raines.

My God, how I want to see handcuffs on these people right after O'Reily calls them cowards, cheats, and incompetent scums..

Bill O'Reilly Is Lying Splotchy Bully

He and the Fox network are shameful, and embarrassment to the profession of journalism. I don't know why Barney Frank even gives him the time of day. Politicians and intelligent public figures shouldn't even talk to anyone at Fox. Doing so sends a message that it is a credible news when every intelligent person knows that it is a mouthpiece for the radical right. Disgusting.

why Bill O'Reilly's show is a national joke

After watching this vieo the only thing I could feel was complete and utter disgust with Bill O'Reilly. Talk about a guy that needs to be brought out to the barn and put down along with the rest of the livestock that preside over political television shows these days.

It is not productive to bring on one of the most respected Congressmen in the country in Barney Frank and essentially berate him for things that are not his fault. Every person with any amount of common sense and rationality knows that the reason why the Wall Street crisis is going on is because of a lack of regulation. And furthermore, everyone with any ounce of sense knows that Barney Frank is the last person that would ever call for less regulation. So the idea that Barney should dignify O'Reilly with appearing on his show only to be screamed at by a whining tottler is preposterous.

Obviously, I disagree with O'Reilly, but I realize that there are people out there (many of the lunatics who wrote here before me) who agree with him. I think something we can all agree on is that this is not the way one adult (O'Reilly) should treat another (Frank), regardless of what their beliefs may be. This interview really just goes to show what O'Reilly really is: a classless child who will kick and scream and bitch and moan until the cows come home if he thinks it will get him more ratings and more prominence nationally. He really ought to be ashamed of himself.

Barney Franks

Barney should resign as of today Oct 4 08.He was warned by Mccain, greenspan and others,but he was too arragant and too dumb to listen.

He and others who received money from Fannie and fredie should have to repay it. The money wasn't fron profits but taxpayers

I would like to see him behind bars along with a lot of others.

Respect

Barney Frank is a member of the United States House of Representatives and he needs to be treated with respect. The parents of Bill O'Reilly really didn't do a very good job.

O'Reilly-Frank

Barney Frank proved he has no character and is not man enough to accept a modicum of responsibility for the mess. Frank like the rest of the politicians is gutless. Bill O'Reilly tore him a new one.

Barney FRank

Thank God there are people like Bill O'Reilly to help us voice our frustrations. It is disgusting to watch these politicians talk out of both sides of their mouths, tell lies after lies after lies, and show their disgust if we don't believe them. Enough is enough with them and we have more serious matters with Obama, the "unknown." Well I just read some of the unknowns in a piece that appeared in Investor's Business Daily "Barack Obama's Stealth Socialsim" If you want to know more go to:

Bill O’Reilly vs. Barney Frank

Way to go Bill. This was about time, I was waiting for this to be reported. When are the three men who brought down Wall Street going to be the subject on your show as well as Barney Frank. Franklin Raines, Tim howard, and Jim Johnson the formeer executive at Lehaman Brothers who was forced out of Fannie Mae as CEO. They all had the golden handshakes with millions in their pockets. Go get em, Bill, We are all waiting for all this to come about. And all three of these folks currently work for the Obama Campain. Only one way to vote and that is McCain and Palin. Our own war hero. Thanks for the sticking up for us tax payers, you are the best, Sandy in Camarillo, Ca.

P.S. If Obama wins he will probably appoint one of these guys as Secretary of the Tresury and then we are all doomed for sure.

Barney Frank interview

Bill: I watch your show frequently and enjoy it very much. But you were rude and offensive to Mr. Frank. I am no Barney fan but you were over the top with him. You did try to brow beat him with your ranting and raving. You know as well as I do that it's not what you say but how you say it. Bill I reviewed your interview several times on the internet and I can only come to the conclusion that you owe Mr. Frank an apology 'BIG TIME'. But, frankly I don't think you are man enough to acknowledge and or do it. When it comes to ego's you are in a class of your own. I've read all of your books and a lot about you and your upbringing and you are definately a chip off your dad's block!

Smackdown

NOW THAT IS HOW THE AMERICAN PEOPLE REALLY FEEL! We are ANGRY and FRUSTRATED that politicians are ignoring the voters and lining their pockets. Barney Frank and his Democratic Fannie Mae crew, which includes Obama, deserve this. I am ecstatic that someone in the media FINALLY is speaking up for Americans! The liberal press just twists the truth and the Congress is filled with two-faced liars. GREAT JOB BILL!!!
