Bill... Oh Bill...

O'Reilly & Rivera.. what a combination...

Published on April 7, 2007 By Harumph In Misc

Two days ago, my husband and I were watching TV, just flipping channels and we came across the Bill O'Reilly segment on Fox News. The show had just started and they were discussing an illegal immigrant in Virginia Beach who drove drunk, crashed into another car (rear ended) and killed two teenage best friends. Geraldo Rivera was the guest pundit speaker.. and in cased you missed it, here it is in all it's glory on You Tube .

The argument became quite heated with lots of table pounding and finger pointing. I haven't seen anything that funny since seeing the clip of William Buckley calling Gore Vidal an old queer and threatening to sock him in the face.

In that particular debate, I happen to agree with Rivera. So I went back and watched some older clips of Rivera and O'Reilly having more heated discussions on Immigration. I swear, I think I saw O'Reilly and Rivera both biting their tongues to keep it from reducing down to name-calling. I had no idea O'Reilly had "issues" about this particular debate. Haha.. it's worth a laugh.

I think it would've been way better with name calling and punches flying. I wonder who would be favorite in a fight. Name calling I would go with O'Reilly. Punches I wouldn't know who to go with. Now on shows like that you would rarely take the liberal to win in a fistfight. I don't think Alan Colmes could beat up Sean Hannity or I don't see Michael Kinsley putting a beat down on Pat Buchanan. But maybe Geraldo could win that one. Plus I heard Bill isn't a fighter, he's a lover. Well at least, on the phone he is.

Oh.. absolutely, I'd have to go with O'Reilly in the name calling.. but I think in a bare knuckled fight, hands down, Rivera would win. Hey.. maybe that's what we should have instead of UFC and elections. The PFC.. The Political Fighting Championship.. Who wouldn't kill to see Dick Cheney take on John Kerry in the octagon?

Not every show can be Jerry Springer.

Does anyone remember the old 60 minutes Point/Counterpoint? With Shana Alexander and James Kilpatrick?

I thought that was Dan Akroyd and Jane Curtain.
