Everyone hates at least one of them, and this is why: Michael Moore vs. Bill O’Reilly. (Be sure to read the conditions Moore stipulated for the interview at the beginning of the article – i.e., that it oughta be an honest record of what took place.) My favorite excerpt:
- MOORE: So you would sacrifice your child to secure Fallujah? I want to hear you say that.
O’REILLY: I would sacrifice myself—
MOORE: Your child—It’s Bush sending the children there.
O’REILLY: I would sacrifice myself.
MOORE: You and I don’t go to war, because we’re too old—
O’REILLY: Because if we back down, there will be more deaths and you know it.
MOORE: Say ‘I Bill O’Reilly would sacrifice my child to secure Fallujah’
O’REILLY: I’m not going to say what you say, you’re a, that’s ridiculous
MOORE: You don’t believe that. Why should Bush sacrifice the children of people across America for this? …
MOORE: Right, I would not sacrifice my child to secure Fallujah and you would?
O’REILLY: I would sacrifice myself.
MOORE: You wouldn’t send another child, another parents child to Fallujah, would you? You would sacrifice your life to secure Fallujah?
O’REILLY: I would.
MOORE: Can we sign him up? Can we sign him up right now?
O’REILLY: That’s right.
MOORE: Where’s the recruiter?
O’REILLY: You’d love to get rid of me.
The tough guy goes out with a whimper. The look on O’Reilly’s face during the parts above is priceless. Watch the video (link at top of article).
