Warning, he says naughty words.

I think I should add that I am making no commentary whatsoever on Mr. O'Reilly, or his politics. I just think it's funny when media personalities go nuts on camera.

In his case, it's goes nuttier.

The man's a certifiable fruitcake.

Serious: did I mention that this guy quoted ME in his earliest Factor Book?

The horror...

So I'm guessing no one on this thread has ever flipped out or had an emotional episode before? You guys are all superhuman? Roger that.

Inside Edition? Wasn't that a long time ago, before he became the rightwing wacko he is today?

This had to have been quite a while ago, 'cause that blown-dry coif is not something he could muster these days.

As to his anger and use of foul language, that was my default state when I was in the service. Sometimes it was real, sometimes it was show and more of a "training aid" used on those who needed something more than a little pep talk.

No one has said that. I posted the video because it made me laugh, that's all.

And keep in mind that McCain has a rep for profane tantrums.

And that would probably make me laugh too.

I prefer the Kasey Kasem flipout, personally.

Heh. Bush giving the finger is funny-he's goofing off; playing around and grinning all the time. He's not out of control. You don't want a POTUS (or 'journalist' for that matter) who can't control his temper.

Rightwing? somewhat common sense liberal maybe.
He's by no means a rightwinger.

Nah, he isn't kidding.

BO'R is not a doctrinaire conservative or right-of-center fellow.

He is more of a traditionalist by instinct & gut. That does place him to the right of many, especially the post-Americans and those who want to upend civil society.

He also has a strain of populism and anti-elitism which places him at odds with the elite of this country...most of which are po-mo/post-Am pinheads.

His political positioning would have been right at home with Truman & JFK.

That, and I've never seen any evidence of it, merely accusations. undecided

Good call! That's one of the best of all time. I don't think it's a big deal when people lose it. These people are on tape for how many hours over how many years/decades? It's only a matter of time before they catch them flipping out at least once. I'm sure I've lost my temper once or twice in the last 10 years. I don't care for O'Reilly (or Kasem either for that matter) but everyone is human.

Here is the youtube of the Kasem audio. This one makes me laugh every time. (Warning: profane language)

I can only hope that if I lose my temper publically or on tape that it's as amusing and funny as that.

Here's a "highlights" video of a few more (language warning):

Never anywhere near that. And not at work.
Roger THAT.

Taurusowner, there is counseling available.

You just have to ask for it, really. Wink
