While a truly horrible thing happened to Ms. Giffords the "targets" had NOTHING to do with it...if so then, all the democrats that were targeted would have been shot...according to what you seem to define as logic. So my questions to you would now be so why has that not happen, how come no other targeted representative has been injured? Why just her? Could it be the guy was cuckoo for cocoa puffs?? Could it? And now that the media has painted him insane...he just may have a shot of an insanity plea.

Dude, you really need to a grip and don't let go.

It's not like he asked him to tie his shoe laces. He was pretty fair considering what 90% of America would treat him like.

Go back and listen to Edward R. Murrow; he let McCarthy hang himself.
Precisely - Murrow, Cronkite, Sevareid, Brinkley... men who understood that talking over answers you don't like gains nothing and asking intelligent questions that expose remedial answers or lack of comprehension makes a better mark.

I didn't seek to make this the typical PR&C, but both sides have become so uncivil - as witnessed here in this thread - that debate as it was performed by Lincoln and Douglas or Webster is extinct.

Yes, I disagree with virtually everything Obama has done since he declared his candidacy, but he was elected as President of these United States and by that he has earned the respect due the holder of the office. He's not above the law and he's not unaccountable, but there are rules of decorum and propriety that are to be followed in civil discourse. Nothing is gained by acting like the children who cannot wait their turn and must denigrate the person and not the idea.

He gave away the respect when he bowed to another head of state. Every leader in the world understands that they do not bow to each other.

Pres. Obama seemed to enjoy it...he was sincere and friendly. Pres. Obama knew he wasn't being interviewed by Joy Behar on the View...however, he was on home turf.

I actually think pres. Obama respects billO...probably even likes the man and his body of work...I also think that the president knows billO is fair when it comes to his treatment of the pres. and his administration.

There is more of the interview tonight on the Factor...I'll watch and assess.

I wouldn't go that far. A lot of conservatives think O'Reilly is a clown.

YouTube - David Brooks calls O Reilly a clown
what does the opinion of billO by conservatives have to do with pres. Obama's opinion of the interview?

O'Reilly was awkward and irascible, even when he was attempting to be gracious.

Obama was calm, cool and collected.

FYI, I'm just to the right of mayonnaise.
