I remember years ago Bill interviewed Larry Klayman, AKA Judicial Watch. Klayman was really ambushing the Clinton Administration at the time, and Bill had just gone through two IRS audits because of his critique of the Clintons.
And do you know what happened? Contrary to the popular belief that O'Reilly is a FRW shill, Bill raked Klayman's ass over the coals.
In closing, do not dismiss opposing viewpoints out of hand. Distance yourself from your preconceived notions. To tell the truth, I think that O'Reilly is probably more aligned with your core beliefs than I am. He is from New York.
And one more thing...Karl Rove ain't Bezelebub by a long shot. I admire his opinion, much like Pat Caddell's.

Sorry I can't stand the arrogant know it all attitude that he has. My dislike of O'Reilly is more about this and less about agenda.
Beck and Hannity I dislike for closed minded, yesteryear, non cerebral hate.
Rove is a dirty little round man. He and James CarvilleI think are more responsible for politicians just plain lying to the masses than any others.
This "just look straight into the camera and lie" philosophy has been more damaging to our country than the Viet Nam war.
