    Bill O’Reilly, being the sexist PIG I knew he was, had the audacity to ask Sarah Palin if she was “smart enough to be President of the United States. He DID NOT ask this same question of Barack Obama. He was called out by a viewer on this issue and LIED about it saying he would ask any man the same question. Why didn’t you then, Mr. O’Reilly, when you interviewed the Marxist Messiah last year? You are a SEXIST to the core and you owe Sarah Palin an apology. I hope she never goes on your silly show again, you ignorant doofus!

    @Sunnyr, I thought the same thing myself when BOR asked Palin that question! In fact, some gutsy journalist should ask him to produce transcript or video evidence of any other interviews he has done with candidates or any other politician where he has asked the same question. I don’t remember him asking Hillary Clinton if she thought she was “smart enough” and she was running for the presidency! He owes both Palin and his viewers an apology.

    His “interview” with Obama was a joke.

    I have to congratulate Nancy Grace once again for beating all of those overpaid, underachieving arrogant condescending prime time anchors on CNN for the third night in a row!

    So nobody is watching MSNBC? I guess that why Mediaite didn’t do a story about this:

    Yeah, sure, O’Donnell defended herself later. She actually said that they do this with both sides of the aisle.
    Gee, does anyone have any footage of MSNBC grilling an Obama supporter?
