Bill O’Reilly On Herman Cain: No Clue About Foreign Affairs

Video
» 139 comments

Never let it be said that Bill O’Reilly won’t let you know precisely what’s on his mind. On The Factor Wednesday evening, he shared his honest assessment of GOP presidential hopeful Herman Cain with comedian (and Cain fan!) Dennis Miller.

Said O’Reilly:

So Hermain Cain… Look. I like Hermain Cain, I like his spirit. I think he presents himself very well. But when he came on The Factor a few weeks ago, he had no clue about foreign affairs.

“Oh, like the guy in there now does,” laughed Miller. “Aren’t we supposed to improve upon that?” asked O’Reilly.

Miller pointed out that what he likes about Barack Obama is that he’s “kept a lot of the Bush / Cheney stuff” going, and believes Cain might be able to continue that as well. O’Reilly’s fear regarding Cain, however, is that he lacks the experience and frame of reference to deal with massive issues and potential threats — like China. But! The man does know a thing or two about getting pizzas to hungry people.

Take a look at the segment, from Fox News:

    Who have we had walk into the White House with solid foreign policy experience? Bush the first. Eisenhower.

    This is why we have a State Department and a National Security Council and a CIA.

    Totally agree. Does BOR think it’s 1980 or something?

    We’re broke!

    We need someone who understands why we’re broke and has a plan and some good sense to get us out of it.

    Of course he doesn’t have foreign policy experience.  You can’t see Russia from Georgia.

    I support Herman Cain for his consistent support for the Federal Reserve and for the TARP bail-outs.  His endorsement of Romney in 2008 also impresses me.  All of these issues are important to Black voters.  Cain will also continue the Iraq and Afghanistan wars; continuing these wars just like Obama has done is hugely important to the middle class.  Obama or Cain, we must never stop the wars and we must always bail-out the banks.

    Herman Cain may not know foreign affairs, but he sure knows pizza!!

    The republicans number one criticism, of Barack Obama in 08, was that he wasn’t experienced enough. But now they are talking Herman Cain, the pizza guy. Really? How hypocritical can these people be. Why should anybody who isn’t a hardcore right wing conservative believe what these people have to say.

    Hermain Cain exists in this primary for one reason and one reason only
    to give the ILLUSION OF INCLUSION …. The republican party is desperate to have people run that make them seem like they would actually let a minority win…. It is fact that the first black president is a Democrat

    You do realize that the U.S. isn’t a business, right?  The president isn’t going to be a CEO, you know that, right?  The president will be dealing with foreign leaders and dealing with security issues.  Cain wasn’t even a community leader.  LMAO.  Look, if Ahmedinejad or Merkel or Netanyahu need a pizza delivered at 3 AM, Cain’s your man.

    I disagree.  Go to Chicago, that’s REAL PIZZA.

    True, we should get the CEO of a 2nd rate pizza joint to get us out of this mess.  Solving the debt crisis will be about as easy as delivering a large 1 topping pizza for $9.99.

    Bill’s right. In terms of foreign policy, Jon Huntsman has the real life experience and credentials on foreign policy, who has served under 3 presidents, under 2 republicans and of course Obama in 4 different countries. No one in this field comes close. Huntman is the one who understands why other countries are passing us by and knows how to deal with it. The rest of them are pretenders. It’s just a shame that most primary voters will not vote for someone who would is the best qualified and presidential of this bunch.

    O’Reilly is a bloviating pinhead. I can’t stand listening to his show.  He’s not very bright, in spite of his high opinion of himself.

    We need care on the domestic front.  IF  the American economy is good, then the world economy is good.  Obama is an ignoramus.  I heard O’Reilly interview him, candidate Obama.  He asked soft ball questions and let Obama skate. 

  • auzerais310

    The ONLY way any Black Democrat ever gets elected to Congress is from  a wildly bizarre gerrymandered  majority Black district that had to be created from a such as to make him/her electable.  NOT one Black Dem is ever elected to the House from a majority white district, but Black Republicans Scott (SC-1) and West (Fl-22) are both from majority white districts.  So it’s obvious that the Dems (both Black&White) are the the real racists.

    Janeane Garofalo – are you posting to Mediaite now?

    Without getting into the who had the first who, let’s run down the list – I’ll let you fill in the blanks.

     - appointed first Black Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff

    - appointed first Black National Security Advisor

    - appointed first Black Secretary of State

    Many more to mention here, but I thought I’d highlight a couple of the notable firsts.  Oh, and by the way, the Democrat Party cannot claim Obama as the first Black president.  The American people can since it was Democrats, Independents, and yes – even a handfull of Republicans who elected him.

    There have been 9 presidents that have not graduated college. George Washington, Andrew Jackson, Martin VanBuren, Zachary Taylor, Millard Fillmore, Abraham Lincoln Andrew Johnson, Grover Cleveland & Harry Truman. Graduating college does not gurantee a candidate will be a good president or even has common sense. We have had some real losers that became president even with a college degree. Harvard has graduated the most presidents and has the most socialist professors. Some of the best presidents have graduated from the military academies.

    I’ve said Jon Huntsman would be the only one who could beat Obama for a long time.  But the religious right and Tea Party folks would never allow him to get past the primaries.
