O'Reilly 'officially' surrenders...
You
know he's been bombarded with e-mails telling him exactly how many of the numerous points he got completely wrong last night, not to mention how he responded
exactly like he accuses some of his left-leaning guests of acting.
At the end of the show tonight, he read a couple of e-mails, no doubt carefully chosen to
not point out his specific mistakes.
What he said: This is an emotional issue and I'm not going to convince you...
What he meant: Yeah, it was
I who emotionally lost it last night - I got my butt handed to me by numerous e-mails, bloggers, websites, etc., pointing out I had
absolutely no clue what I was talking about, but rather than wade in deeper or
man up and
apologize, correct the record, and admit I was wrong,
I'm going to spin this to
paint all you e-mailers as the emotional ones!
No Spin Zone indeed...
I think we can interpret his response to the e-mail as an
official surrender on this subject, for which Bill probably wishes he had a mulligan (assuming his ego would allow it)!
The second e-mail also asked him
who should define "heavy weapons"?
He replied that
Congress should!
Wow...that's a scary thought, but I'm sure Carolyn (I believe it is a shoulder thing that goes up) McCarthy and Dianne (we flipped through a book to pick out what were assault weapons) Feinstein are up to the task!
