Hillary Tells Bill O'Reilly That Wright's Statements Were "Offensive And Outrageous"
Those who predicted that Hillary would hit Reverend Wright during her appearance on Fox News' The O'Reilly Factor were right.
Fox just aired a promo of the interview, which has been recorded and is set to air tonight, and in it, O'Reilly pushes Hillary to attack Wright -- and she obliges. Take a look...
More of the interview as we get it. Full transcript of this snippet after the jump.
O'Reilly: "Can you believe this Rev. Wright guy? Can you believe this guy?"Clinton: "Well, I'm going to leave it up to voters to decide."
O'Reilly: "Well, what do you think as an American?"
Clinton: "Well, what I said when I was asked directly is that I would not have stayed in the church.
O'Reilly: "You're an American citizen, I'm an American citizen, He's an American citizen, Rev. Wright. What do you think when you hear a fellow American citizen say that kind of stuff about America."
Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs. It is part of just, you know, an atmosphere we're in today."
God Bless Bill O'Reilly and FOX!

She said Wright was "offensive and OUTRAGEOUS"?

Obama said just the other day that Wright was "divisive and destructive", and that Obama was "OUTRAGED"by his comments.
Get your own line, Hillary.

Don't try logic with these Hitlerjugend. They abandoned it long ago to follow Der Fuehrer Obama into the mousehole of history.
I actually like Obama, but his "supporters" are the biggest pile of trash I've ever seen. Stupid bullies with very little to say but "Heil Obama."
Hillary wins it and you can suck it, Hitlerjugend.
Oh, and you can tell us about "Die Mathematik!" that supposedly wins it for your Fuehrer while you suck it.

Meanwhile Iran has officially complained to the U.N about Hillary's "oblitergate" statement, deeming it "provocative, unwarranted and irresponsible " Presumably they are OUTRAGED and DISGUSTED at her comments, now thats something worth looking into than the old and now completely overused Wright talking points.
Now follow this link in an orderly manner pliz...

I'm shocked! Shocked! A Hillary and O'Reilly love-fest? Who could have predicted this?
I've always thought Hillary was pretty much unelectable, but I'm about to change my mind on that. She's got Ann Coulter's endorsement, she's chummy with O'Reilly, and the wingnuts really hate McCain. If Hillary manages to steal the nomination she won't get the progressive vote or the black vote, but she'll more than make up for it by taking the wingnut vote away from McCain. Nader will get the progressive vote, but who cares.
Suddenly her support for the AUMA, her cheerleading for the surge, her vote to take us closer to preemptive war against Iran, supporting (for a while) legalizing torture, sponsoring a bill to ban flag burning, talking about totally obliterating Iran, endorsing McCain, antagonizing the netroots ... the whole thing starts to make sense. Her plan is nothing less than a hostile takeover of the GOP. It's so crazy it just might work.

Of COURSE Fox wants Hillary to win the nomination. That way, no matter who wins in November, there will be a Republican in the White House.

I wouldn't go that far. But I will say a Clinton in the White House would be pretty darn good for their ratings. I think Fox News remembers the '90s at least as fondly as anyone else.

Wright was "outrageous" when he came to the White House to make her husband look like a "godly" man after her husband chose to have an illict affair (number ?? of at least 6 that we are aware of) with a young woman almost the age of their daughter, in the White House while she was in East Wing.
Someone needs to ask an Obama "supporter" what their reaction to Bill's philandering is:
"You know, you can't choose your parents, but you can choose your husband... I know I wouldn't have stayed married to him for 30 years. Now of course, I'm only saying this because someone asked me directly what I thought. I mean I'm not offering up my opinion for political gain, or anything. I just think if you're going to be in a marriage, it should at least count for something. I think it sends the wrong signal to our children about the state of straight marriage in this country. But you know, she chose someone who was always a cheater... I mean, as far as I know... of course there could be no basis for that. Calling him a serial cheater and sexual abuser... is what some people are calling him. Of course I have no opinion on the matter. I was just responding to your direct question... you know what I mean..."

For the record (mine at least) I happen to find Limbaugh more credible than OReilly. Limbaugh is the first to say his show orbits around his OPINION - I think it would be smart for Obama to accept Hillary's OReilly appearance and raise her a Limbaugh segment.
Obama is sending out some pretty obvious smoke signals to fiscal conservatives and I think they've made a huge difference in the primaries that aren't closed to non-democrats. Hillary seems to only do well amongst closed primaries.
O Reilly on the other hand constantly congratulates himself for his journalistic neutrality - which is bullshit of course.
I think Obama on Fox News Sunday was cool, he likely reached a lot of voters that don't read TPM or watch MSNBC, (I admit not the most enlightened voters, but voters nonetheless).
Showing up on O Reilly's bullshit play-on-a-loop-everything-teenage-half-naked cable show is just gross... and lends credibility to O Reilly that he doesn't deserve.

For the record: I am NOT a fan of Fox or O'Reilly, in spite of being a Clinton supporter. If that entire bucket of spit disappeared tomorrow the universe would be a better place. But "pedophiliac cable news program" is pretty much over the top. The rhetoric does you and your side a disservice.
And the difference between O'Reilly and the rest of Fox is pretty much one of semantics. You're trying to justify the unjustifiable, IMO.

Have you ever watched The OReilly Factor?
Dubbing OReilly's program a 'pedophiliac cable news program' is entirely accurate and I'm a registered Republican - although not the kind of Republican that watches Fox.
OReilly regularly latches on to any video footage of spring breakers or girls gone wild and runs it on a loop for the entire hour while doing a voice-over expressing his outrage that this filth is so accessible to our youth. Keep in mind his show is on during the day in my time zone.
My husband and I have gone so far as to block Fox News Channel because of this, (I also block ABC family because I think the 700 Club is just as dangerous to our young sons' minds) - OReilly is a pervert and uses the resources of a news network to feed his fetish for young barely dressed women caught on video.
Hillary must have a thing for men her age that ogle and exploit young women 1/3 her age.

As Dryden wrote in 1691 in a letter to Walsh, 'to be truly a friend, a man must seeme to exercise a little malice.' We should criticise what we revere; awed silence does damage no vigorous criticism could match. Let Wright say what he said, and rather than complaining that he said at all, refute his comments in substance. That is the greater compliment to America.

Let's make it a Greek Chorus of God Damn America if that happens.
Because if we keep up this Dynasty crap, this democratic republic is finished.
Political dynasties are anathema to democracy. We aren't supposed to have these fucking idiots running around imagining they are somehow more entitled to be in charge than anyone else.
And then they drag their families in and it all gets personal and just to psychodrama for words - just like the bloody goddamn crowned heads of Europe. You think we didn't just get the idiot king electing another member of a dynasty - just like they used to get in Europe = all inbred and fucked up?

I concur, potentially a quarter century of two families in the executive is the biggest threat to democracy there is. A story that has not even been glanced at by the media.

I think O'Lielly is really a shit demon in human disguise. I imagine he was disrespectful and I don't like it either, but see, he makes my skin crawl. I wouldn't be in the same room with him.
She would have walked out on Wright? And she can sit that close to O'Lielly? It's hard for me to feel too sorry for her.

She would walk out on Wright, but sits there with O'Reilly.
Clinton is moving so far to the right, there's no room in asshole land. And half the dems want Clinton as a nominee.
I've finally made up mind on this. If she get's the nomination, I can't vote for her.

hmm... so let me this strait, Hillary can't even attack Wright when the rest of the country including obama is going crazy over his comments.. have your hatred of hillary gone so over the board that you even can;t take her criticism of wright with a strait face. this is absurd!

Dude, did you LISTEN to the clip?
The transcript does not do it service.
O'Reilly: "Can you believe this Rev. Wright guy? Can you believe this guy? What do you think."
Clinton: "Well, I'm going to leave it up to voters to decide."
O'Reilly: "But what do you think as an American, you're an American."
Clinton: "Well, what I said when I was asked directly is that I would not have stayed in the church."
O'Reilly: "No, no, no. But, you're an American citizen, I'm an American citizen, He's an American citizen, Rev. Wright. What do you think when you hear a fellow American citizen say that kind of stuff about America."
Clinton: "Well, I take offense. I think it's offensive and outrageous. I'm going to express my opinion, others can express theirs. It is part of just, you know, an, uh, atmosphere we're in today."
The criticism is obviously NOT that Clinton thinks Wright is
"offensive and outrageous". Duh, Obama said that yesterday.
No, the outrage comes in when Clinton takes the first chance she can to hit Obama on the head with an issue, when O'Reilly didn't even ask about Obama.

That's the most objective question O'Reilly has asked in years. Obviously, he and his Fox overlords love to continue their discussion of Obama, so that their mindless viewers will continue to associate him and his objectionable comments with Obama. But O'Reilly's question itself was fair -- in fact, it's the same one Obama implicitly answered yesterday when he completely, unambiguously, and in very strong terms condemned Wright's nonsense. Leave it to the Republican in faux-Democratic clothing to try - TWICE! - to answer the question by tying Wright directly to Obama.
She's a joke.

This just appeared on CNN's site. Now Hillary is a factory worker. Check her hands for callouses.
"At a chilly outdoor stop in the blue-collar city last weekend, Sen. Hillary Clinton told the crowd her father, Hugh Rodham, made and sold print drapery in the region and that as a young girl, she worked the factory floor with her mother and brothers. She reminisced about the church supper "molded salads" of her youth.

I will say this again because I've read more than one comment from a Hillary supporter after my initial post upthread:
I find it absolutely breathtaking and incredible that so-called Democrats on this site (all Hillary supporters) are actually defending Bill O'Reilly. What has happened to our party? Jesus, I absolutely am stunned. What's next? Defending Rush Limbaugh's call to riot in Denver? Where will you people draw the line?

Hey, great idea, maybe Hillary can call in to Rush's show and get some positive time with him. Indiana's an open primary next week, plus many Democrats in NC likely also listen to him. Obama is down and no sense not taking advantage of the situation as he's had too many passes already. In the words of Wright, his chickens are coming home to roost.

Obama has defended Hillary from similar attacks, or refused to be baited.
"Well, why would she do that?" you'll ask.
because, on the odd chance she somehow sneaks her way to become the nominee, she'll need Obama voters to support her.

Its fun to read the comments about how the delegate count is the only criterion for picking the nominee. Its an alternate universe. Imagine a scenario where Obama faces three or fours weeks of criticism for his assocation with Wrigtht -- and then Ayers -- and then Rezko (at about verdict time). Assume, for one moment, that the polls show Obama 20 points behind both McCain and HRC. Is there any possibility that Obama will be the nominee?
The answer is yes -- in the alternate universe where winning the WH matters less than honoring the thinly-attended caucuses in red states won by BO five or six months ago.

Hmmm I disagree. I do not think it is likely that Clinton will win (yet). But if the current narrative does not change in the MSM then it will get reflected in the polls. If he is down by a lot in the polls, the supers may hand it to Clinton.
If things stay around the same as they are now, then Obama gets it. And Hilldog will continue to poison the well in hopes for 2012.

While it goes against a free market, capitalist nation, I do think that there needs to be some control exercised upon oil speculators who are driving up costs. Unfortunately no good, simple solutions but if we can use the opportunity to get rid of a tax, lets do it.

There's no way Clinton can win without black support.
That's why all you closet McCain supporters are supporting Hillary...
it's the only way Republicans win the White House.
I find it hard to believe that this man is endorsing Hillary:
""There are African Americans who have reached the decision that the Clintons know that she can't win this," he told Reuters.
"But they're hell-bound to make it impossible for Obama to win."
Speaking with the New York Times, Clyburn said such actions could lead to a longtime division between the former president and his once most reliable constituency.
"When he was going through his impeachment problems, it was the black community that bellied up to the bar," Clyburn said. "I think black folks feel strongly that this is a strange way for President Clinton to show his appreciation."

That's not possible. Delegates elect the nominee. The nominee will be the person with the most delegates.

Congressman Clyburn is so in the tank for Obama, the MSM should stop calling him uncommitted.

I said it yesterday, Hillary could go classy and when this type of question came up say something like "I really don't want to talk about that, there are serious issues the American people want to talk about. Senator Obama has said all that needs saying." but of course, she didn't. What was I thinking? Has she EVER taken the classy road?

Tirades aside, will the Democratic Party nominate Sen. Obama in Denver if the polls uniformly show him to be trailing McCain (and HRC) by 20 points?
Please answer the question.

Of course not. Will the Democratic Party nominate Clinton if the polls stay around the same or a 5 point shift?
Please answer the question.

I have no idea. Will the Democratic Party nominate Sen. Clinton if she grows a tail?

Tirades aside, if the polls show McCain ahead by 20 points the last week of the campaign, shouldn't we just cancel the election?
Please answer the question.

how can Hillary win without the black vote?
How?

If Clinton gets the nomination, regardless of the manner in which Obama loses, she'll get half the Black vote by the time the election comes around. They likely won't vote for McCain and while many might sit out the election, I think they want a Democratic win and will quickly recall that the Clintons have been big supporters throughout their lives. So, while I do not think Blacks can be ignored any more than any other group should be, I do not think this needs to be a make-or-break consideration at this stage. The goal now is simply to win the nomination.

Matt, I still haven't figured out what you were implying in a previous post when you commented on:
"Barack Obama putting his half-Black arm around a White supporter."
Sounds like you've got some big racial issues here, if it bothers you to see a bi-racial man having physical contact with a white woman. I like how you capitalize "Black" and "White", just like the Aryan Nation likes to do in its hate propaganda.
