O'Reilly - "Abducted child "liked ... his circumstances,

[Guest LadyC]

butero, o'rielly said that about the weather? LOL, for such an educated man, that was a very uneducated answer. this year's wacky weather is typical of an el nino season.

No one knows the circumstances that boy was living under, shame on him for "assuming" he knows.

That is not what Mr. O'Reilly said. HE said that children in those circumstances will do most anything to stop any of the abuse that may be going on including saying that they like them. I just got through listening to him and he didn't say that at all.

Here's the segment: Bill O'Reilly on Shawn Hornbeck

[forrestkc]

O'Reilly has a job for one reason, people watch his program. I often listen to the O'Reilly Factor on the xm radio, and occasionally to the Radio Factor. I don't always agree with him, as is the case here. I also dissagree with his belief in global warming. If you really want to attack him, you should have heard his absurd statements in defense of global warming, saying that those who doubt it should step outside and feel how warm it is. He said that while New York City was going through an abnormally warm winter. He failed to recognize how cold it was in the western half of the nation. Totally irresponsible journalism.

Back to being serious, are you calling for Rosie to be fired from her program? She has made statements every bit as bad as the ones you are attacking by O'Reilly, and unlike Bill, she has a pattern of stirring trouble. Apparently, Forrest like all liberals cannot win a debate based on merit of the argument, so their solution is to silence everyone they dissagree with. That is what congress is attempting with the "fairness doctrine," and people like Forrest are doing with O'Reilly. They look for something they may have said whereby they can stir up public sentiment against them, and use it as an excuse to have their program taken off the air.

I don't care is he is fired or not. I was being rather tongue in cheek suggesting that he should be. I don't watch his show, but I probably agree with the guy as much as I disagree with him. However, that aside, he is certainly a sanctimonious narcissist.

Those were direct quotes from O'Reilly .

OH please! The boy had ample opportunity to escape. The FBI has admitted that Stokholm syndrome is a bunch of nonsense. Had he wanted to, the boy could have escaped. So, logic says, he must not have wanted to.

Empathy is not one of your strong points is it.

I am never convinced of the various "illnesses" which psychologists give our children.

Example: ADHD

Not really.

Haha.

That is not really a virtue though you know.

The boy was abducted at age 11, kept for 4 years by a sexual predator, and probably regularly raped.

I find it hard to believe that the boy in anyway liked his arrangements or did not want to go back to his family. In fact, I think it
