Bill O’Reilly Calls Out Sarah Palin. Right To Her Face And E’erything!
In Related News, It WAS Opposite Day.
First, Fox News was so embarrassed by Palin’s stupidity that they had to correct her about her deliciously asinine assumption that Obama is in charge of whether or not there’s God-stuff on our coins. Then on Friday night, Bill O’Reilly asked her questions that I’m pretty sure left her wishing she were being interviewed by Katie Couric. And no, I am not making this up.
O’Reilly: You pointed out his [Obama's] lack of experience — you don’t have that much experience. You walked away from the governorship after, what, two years? Two and a half years?
Palin: Going into my lame-duck session — my fourth legislative session — and not wanting to put Alaskans through a lame-duck session –
O’Reilly: OK, but is it fair for you to criticize Obama’s lack of experience when somebody could make the same criticism about you on the national stage.
Palin: If you’re talking about executive experience, I would put my experience up against his any day of the week. I have been elected to local office since 1992, and was a city manager, strong-mayor form of government, was a chief executive of the state, and was an oil and gas regulator. There was some good experience there that could have been put to use in a vice presidential ticket. We’ve to remember too that I wasn’t running for president.
O’Reilly: No, but that’s the key question. Because John McCain is up there in years, you had to be qualified to take that office over.
Palin: Right. But I — I’m saying I was running for vice president, just like Joe Biden had been running for vice president. I never once heard you or anybody else question Joe Biden and his experience.
O’Reilly: Well, he’s got a lot of experience.
Now, I should point out that I saw (and by “saw,” I mean “did a bunch of other stuff while this interview blathered on in the background”) the rest of this interview, and he’s mostly kissing her ass and trying to make out with her the rest of the time, as per his contract with Mr. Murdoch. And I’m pretty sure these are the hardest questions she’s been - or will be - asked while on her book tour. But STILL, y’all! Color me “well, THAT was unexpected.”

Chelsea - PETA Protector says:Wait, O’Reilly called her out? If it weren’t Bill O’Reilly, I’d be impressed. Unfortunately I can’t be impressed by things he does…it’s like a law.

TheHobo says:He has to pretend to give his side shit a bit too, so that when his critics look over his past interview tapes he can be like “I asked Palin tough questions! I’m not above questioning anybody! Murdoch does not have his hand up my ass making me talk! And to prove it, I’ll question Palin again while Murdoch drinks a glass of water…”

blah says:I agree w/ Hobo. It’s just so he can sound legitimate. Speaking of fake journalists, what the hell is up with Greta Van Sustren and Sarah Palin? Has Greta gone gay for this woman? Every time I see her, she’s always talking about or standing up for that woman. I saw an interview with her and Palin on Fox (which I loathe, but when they have Palin on I watch…she’s just so stupid I like to see what will happen) and Greta was practically gushing over her. Greta did one interview at her home in Alaska and now they’re besties. Fucking weird.
She actually had some good ideas and sounded like she knew what she was talking about, but I couldn’t help but compare her to a third grader who just learned something interesting and felt the need to show off. However, when she said, “Why can’t India and Pakistan come together to fight terrorism in Afghanistan?”
Uh………………………..
Perhaps a little history lesson is in order for Sarah Plain and Dumb.
