Frank Demolishes Bill O'Reilly- HuffPost's Jed Lewison
Posted by: CotoBlogzz | 10/03/2008 4:24 PM
Proving one more that that the output of a decision-making process, is a function of the individual's threshold of belief (TOB), Jed Lewison, writing for the HuffingtonPost from Washingto DC asserts that "Barney Frank just demolished Falafel Bill O'Reilly on The Factor"
Lewison was referring to Bill O'Reilly, host of The O'Reilly Factor on the FOX Network.
Echoing Senator John MaCain, O'Reilly has called on SEC Chairman Christopher Cox to resign. O'Reilly has also called on Senate Banking Committee Chairman Christopher Dodd to quit, and House Finance Chief Barney Frank to step down from his position - the latter because "for the past two years, Frank and his committee oversaw Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac -- two government sponsored lending agencies which pretty much are bankrupt"
When congressman Frank was asked about Freddie and Fannie on July 14, 2008, his response was "I think this is a case where Fannie and Freddie are fundamentally sound, that they are not in danger of going under. They're not the best investments these days from the long-term standpoint going back. I think they are in good shape going forward"
You can read the Factor's transcripts, apply your own TOB and determine if indeed as Lewison asserts, congressman Frank demolished O'Reilly. Or perhaps the congressman performance would put Barney (the purple dinosaur) or Bart Simpson to shame - as in " I did not do it, nobody saw me do it, noby can prove anything..." in the last instance.
It was a thing of beauty from the start, and peaked when Frank told O'Reilly that O'Reilly's "stupidity gets in the way of rational discussion." Frank even used the L-word, telling O'Reilly that he was "lying."
