O’Reilly Proposes To Laura Ingraham A ‘Beer Summit’ With Her, Obama, And Ed Schultz

video
» 33 comments

Laura Ingraham made her first television appearance after Ed Schultz‘s long, somewhat gut-wrenching apology, and, as she did on her radio show earlier, she graciously accepted the apology– even going as far as inviting detractors to “tease me in a humorous fashion,” but not to be nasty. But while she kept the spotlight straight on Schultz, Bill O’Reilly saw his suspension as indicative that the new sheriff in town at MSNBC– Comcast– was cleaning house.

O’Reilly noted in his Talking Points Memo that Schultz’s suspension was merely the latest in a series of disciplinary moves after “the firing of a hateful commentator there” close to the time Comcast took over, and revisited that narrative later with Ingraham. But first, he asked Ingraham to respond once again to the apology, to which she said she couldn’t not accept it if offered, but that she had a new understanding of how minorities on the right are treated. “This is what I think conservative women,” she argued, “and to some extent African American men who happen to be conservative– even Latino men who are conservative– have to face.” In other words, this is far bigger than Ed Schultz.

O’Reilly agreed that this was bigger, but not in a social way– it was bigger within the corporation. O’Reilly argued that those at NBC “encourage this personal attack stuff” and Schultz simply “flashed back to the old days.” But even O’Reilly didn’t hit Schultz too hard, even joking: “I want to get you and Ed Schultz and the President and have a few beers.” “As long as you’re buying!” Ingraham replied.

    Ha, putting booze in to a drunk like Schultz while in the presence of the president and a woman?
    The SS will have to put Schultz down faster then the cops did to Face Ripper Monkey.

  • Dem4Ever

    Ed Schultz will probably end up committing suicide. Have any of his nitwit Liberal hate monger cohorts even bothered to put him on suicide watch? His blood is on your hands.

  • insideguy

    One thing that amazes me is the media(right and left) like to cover themselves so much and talk about each other. Isn’t there any real news in this world to discuss? Its like a high school where they are all talking about each other all the time and no real work gets done.

    I think you’re on to something. Most Democrats seem mentally ill to me, but Schultz, Madcow, Matthews, Ratigan and especially Olberdouche seem particularly deranged and on the verge of hurting themselves, or worse, another person.

    I think Democrats need to start watching out for each other’s mental stability. I’m worried about them.

  • insideguy

    Oh you guys are so compassionate lol. I honestly have no words anymore.

    Isn’t Laura Ingraham the one who made fun of Meghan McCain because she sounded like a “valley girl gone awry” and basically suggested that she’s “plus-sized”? And they want to complain about the hateful comments from MSNBC against conservative women? Please.

    Wow, you really need to know the difference between being called plus sized and slut.

    No it wasn’t. See, this is what happens when you have too little knowledge and a computer. You say stupid things and then suddenly they become real!

    That was a nice dinner I lost.

    I don’t think it would be a good move for Bill to call for a beer summit with Ed Schultz.

  • valkyrie101

    The purpose of this whole so called scandal is for Ingraham to sell a few more books.

  • Rokker

    O’Reilly is a hypocrite. He often has scumbag Dennis Miller on trashing Pelosi’s looks.

  • Barack Must Go

    Did anybody notice the surreal, ( almost humanlike ) quality of the Hardball crowd tonight. Libs a such a funny, yet in a sad sac sort of way, group of individuals.

  • skyfet

    Please don’t play the sexist card, its embarrassing.

  • Just4thefax

    Fact: Laura Ingraham is a class act. She will only drink American beer!

  • http://constitutionallibertarian.co.cc DavidKramer

    Come on, liberals (aka socialists aka communists aka leftists) are ALL about being civil. If you do not believe me, ask them. They will go on and on and on about being conservatives being civil, but the INSTANT conservatives turn their back, in goes the knife.

    Leftists are all about Saul Alinsky rules for radicals. Heck, in it they worship their only one and only true God, Lucifer.

    By the way, I do not follow the leftist’s Politically Correct call for civility. I guess you caught that huh?

  • Johnnie Dorman

    Schultz is right about Ingraham, only he should have simply used another term, as in that she is a “prostitute for right wing greed.”

  • Johnnie Dorman

    Also, Bill O’Reilly’s lips are looking more pasty than ever, and I wish that he and Sean Hannity would cram their pens that they’ve always got in their hands where bacon strips come from.
