    Talk about lowering the level of public discourse... Me thinks O'Reilly lost a bit of money...

    Ouch. It doesn't help Barney Frank's cause that he can barely speak clearly either.

    The weaker the point the louder you need to yell.

    Is O'Reilly the only guy on TV to call his guests cowards and not let them talk back?

    Would Mr. Falafel dare pull the "Cut his mic! Cut his mic!" on a congressman?

    Frank said "don't invest." So what's the basis of your lawsuit?

    John Wayne? As O'Reilly?

    It's hilarious to see O'Reilly question whether Frank (the only openly homosexual member of Congress) is "man enough" when O'Reilly paid off a former employee in her sexual harassment suit to prevent, for example, this little tidbit from, ahem, leaking out. (Smoking Gun citation, not work-appropriate.)

    Man enough his ass.

    Frank said that "Fannie and Freddie were fundamentally sound...not in danger of going under...[Fannie and Freddie as investments] good shape going forward...Prospects going forward are very solid.

    We simply can not reward the Democratic party for presiding over possibly the biggest financial calamity in history. O'Reilly is right about that.

    Quick question, how much does Frank's statement over Freddie and Fannie really mean to someone investing?

    I don't know much about investments, etc but don't you usually have someone doing the investment or even if you are doing it yourself, don't they have graphs that show you the trend of the stock. The trend that was shown in the clip was a complete downward trend. So why listen to Frank, a politician, who is going to look out for his ass first and foremost?

    Most people make money on a stock like Fannie Mae by seeking the bottom, meaning they are getting for a deal. So, not that I would, but some might have taken his statements as a sign that it was okay and taken the chance for the big upside.

    My first time seeing this



    It makes for good tv, but wasn't fair and balanced at all.

    He lost money in the company I work for (GE) so yes you pretty much echo my sentiments and it seems like it on the radio each day.

    "HIS MONEY" seems to be the only reason he thinks Obama shouldnt be president. Once he got into the tax thing, Oreilly seemed to turn face after Obama owned him in that interview they did.

    regardless of how he looks, his point did get across. He showed Frank to be weasel who points the finger at everyone else

    Haha, what the hell. Some people actually think that O'Reilly was the winner of that? All he did was scream around like the idiot he is while Frank tried to refute him.
