You and I have never had a problem with each other -- always enjoyed your posts and knowledge of golf.  Would miss you on the forum .... I was only trying to have all of us honor Donnakaye's request to us -- sorry if you think I overreacted - I personally don't care what anybody's opinion of Bill O'Reilly is -- just don't think Tiger's forum is the place to have this type of argument.

IMHO

This trend needs to be deleted, turning this site into a dysfunctional family

I missed the first airing of O'Reilly's show last  night because I watched CBS's "Undercover Boss".   It was a show with a lady executive from Popeyes.  I enjoy watching hard working employees tell their stories and then at the end of the show get  gifts like college scholarships, donations to their churches and cars.   It is an uplifting CBS series.

Bill's show replays @ 11pm, I recalled this in the nick of time.   I saw the segment about Tiger w/in the dumbest things of the week part of the show.  Of course, Fox News wanted to cover themselves so they included a black lady on the panel with Bill.     The third person,a white man, demonstrated why Fox News is just another form of tv entertainment.    The third member of Bill's panel performed his bit part as a comedian as he refered to Seal the singer.    Mercifully, the segment on Tiger & his news conference etc. was short.  

It is sad that so many Americans cannot tell the difference between objective & professional journalism from subjective and entertainment as shown on Fox News and MSNBC.   Both Fox News and MSNBC operate with agendas and exist to brainwash Americans.     It works because too many Americans are merely "mindless" consumers.  

Hey B18T,

 

I did not hear O'Reilly say "everyone" in New Orleans during Katrina were "thugs & addicts" (at The Superdome, or at The French Quarter); which would clearly be ridiculous.

I am sure his comment about "wishing a hurricane would hit the United Nations building" stems from the fact that The United States is the official host (pays all the bills) and grants immunity to foreign diplomats (who sometimes commit crimes against American citizens, including car accident deaths, and more.); while one dictator after another pride themselves on trashing America, and its people, inspite of all we have done for the world.

The worst memory I have of Katrinia, was seeing those people trying to survive (standing on roof-tops; or worse, trying to cross the never-ending (26 mile) Lake Pontchartrain in an over- crowded  pick-up truck) with their kids; YET on the otherhand (the very disturbing photo of) the airline 757 jetliner leaving New Orleans (filled with DOGS, and (4) flight attendants) instead of being filled with PEOPLE and their families!  Perhaps the airplane could have been filled with 350 people (and let them hold the dogs, on their laps).

Shame on the  animal rights groups (for not getting their priorities straight); and shame on the Mayor of New Orleans (and other LOCAL public officials) for allowing six-hundred (600) school buses to sit VACANT (while all those people were left stranded at The Superdome).  Given a capacity of 38- 48 seats per bus; 22,800 to 28,800 people could have been driven to safety (BEFORE hurricane Katrinia came ashore).

Perhaps the public outrage would be better served there.

I am a HUGE pro-football fan; and have organized many (many) group motorcoach tours to The New Orleans Superdome (filled with Atlanta Falcon fans), to play The New Orleans Saints in the biggest sports rivalry in history; however, after Katrinia, they could never clean The Superdome well enough for me to return, after forcing all those people to stay there in those un-sanitary conditions (with no running water, and no electricity) for all that time.  They would have to demolish it, and rebuild it (from the ground  . . . up).

Frankly, I consider Bill O'Reilly a lightweight . . .too much filibuster, and too much sarcasm.  He tends to throw a lot of things out there (open a lot of cans of worms) with his "talking-points memos" (LOL), with too little time for indebt  analysis . . . (unlike PBS-Charlie Rose).  In my opinion, that doesn't make him a racist.

I prefer Sean Hannity (over Bill O'Reilly); Sean gets right to the point (like EYE do).
