Bill O’Reilly has gone so far into overdrive trying to protect his dear leader that he really doesn’t seem to know which end is up anymore. First, he claimed that the US didn’t invade Iraq. And now, in his recent interview with Scott McClellan, BOR tried to claim that nuclear weapons aren’t WMDs and Colin Powell didn’t talk about nukes when he gave his infamous presentation to the UN. Keith Olbermann breaks it down.
Seems like BOR has gone from rewriting history to trying to rewrite reality. The big thing to notice is the confidence with which he speaks, even when he’s completely making things up, then when he’s unequivocably confronted with one of his lies, he just brushes it off like it never happened. He’s willing to throw out any ridiculous claim to see if it sticks or if his guest will call him on it.
I really think that most of his viewers assume that if BOR says something with conviction, he couldn’t possibly be lying. But if he keeps venturing into total crackpot bizarro world with claims like these, even his viewers might not be able to remain in his fantasy kingdom. As we know from the Andrea Mackris transcripts, BOR has a very vivid imagination, especially when it comes to Caribbean shower fantasies…
