He twists their words and badgers them with statements about them that aren't true. Most importantly though, Bill O'Reilly interrupts you and does not let you speak. He asks a question that is lopsided, looks for something in your words to spin even more from the truth, and if he doesn't get that he interrupts you and changes the topic.

He's a terrible person to have a conversation with, and if you're trying to get a message out during a campaign, O'Reilly is just a waste of your time because he will not let you say anything.
not a waste of my time cause he never asks me anything. SOrry, I couldn't resist that one.

Seriously, I know what you are saying, but I really don't think he is all that bad. Did you see him either time he interviewed Obama? He was very fair, but yes, he does want answers. He will not stop harping if the person he is interviewing hedges at all. Am I a lover of O'Reilly? No, I wish Laura Ingram would replace him, I still don't think it would hurt Paul to appear on O'Reilly
's show. Of course this is a moot point cause it isn't going to happen. All we are doing now is argueing about O"Reilly...It is amazing how so many times we get off the subject. I know what we are discussing isn't totally off subject but it is heading that way.

Yes. Even O'Reilly would respect him for making him look foolish, but that is not what would happen.

Ron Paul says a lot of great things, virtually none of which will get him elected.

What is with this high school dweeb "reporter" O'Reilly sent up to New Hampshire to talk to Dr. Paul?
O'Reilly needs to stick to doing puff pieces for the Romney/Perry types.
Oh, and calling those 900 numbers. "Oh, Bill, you're the biggest and the best". $5.99 a minute.

I know some who feel that he should. If he is so sure about himself, that he would hold his own with Bill, and some feel that he should.

Exactly so many i know who like Paul or don't feel that he should. Hek if your that sure of yourself as a Poltician, why not go on the show and prove Bill wrong. What a show, if Paul stood up to Bill, would that not be good for Paul at this stage of the game.

He has been on his show before. He was talked over and interrupted throughout the interview. Why should he want to go back? O'Reilly is a neocon. There is no reason for Ron Paul to waste his time that he can use to go on shows where the host is respectful.

His refusal to go on OR confirmed my suspicions, Ron Paul is a complete nut job who is unelectable. Getting behind him is a waste of energy. He has NO chance..!
