A Bill O'Lielly "interview" with Bush

Pop question - who do you think would have the balls to plug a book in the middle of an interview with the President of the United States? Give up? It's Bill O'Lielly, of course! The implied message here - when BOR (pun intended) interjects himself into an interview with the president - is that he thinks he's the most important person in the room. Personally, that's debateable. Is there a third choice?

For BOR to whine that he's the second most attacked person in America during this interview, bitching how he gets so angry about it was one of the highlights of this classic clip. Hey Bill - quit lying and distorting on a nightly basis and people would back off. From Malmedy to saying you won two Peabody Awards (you didn't) to lying about just about anything because you believe people won't go back and check it (and they always do), your record is so rife with lies, the question now is, "When don't you lie?"

I always laugh with glee when BOR has a meltdown about being called/caught in a lie. It's always tape that will stand the test of time. If you've been a reader of this blog, you've seen some great examples of this, and it'll always be a staple.

My favorite part of the interview is trying to figure out who lies and distorts more between these two.

Oh, and Bush told a whopper about half-way through:

Anyone remember this question by a reporter at a press conference during the run-up to the Iraq war? I'm paraphrasing, but I'm sure I'm pretty close:

Reporter: Mr. President, do you ever call your father for advice?

Bush: No, I have a higher father that I talk to about big decisions.

And people like Bush and O'Lielly wonder why people are so skittish about their religious beliefs. It's because those beliefs are constantly being shoved down our throats. And for Bill to assert (and surprise! Bush doesn't correct him) that people falsely claim the president is "an evangelical Christian" is a lie of the tallest order.

The president is an evangelical Christian! A careful review of his record since his time as the governor of Texas would certainly prove it.

If these two boobs make it to heaven, I wouldn't want to be in hell.
