YOU must not watch O'Reilly's show....while he has admittedly gone overboard from time to time...those are exceptions...not the rule....he was quite gentle with Obambi for instance...His show is quite different than the non-stop hate you see on Kos, et al....No surprise that your pointy little head is unable to apprehend the difference.....

>> The man gets paid to tell people to "shut up."

I've seen him go off on people before but in general, it is because the interviewee is lying or trying to deflect responsibility.

This was exactly the case with Frank. Now, I think anyone who watches that interview realizes that O'Reilly was pissed at Frank's unwillingness to take responsibility for the mess HE created -- and he was pissed before the interview started. But under the circumstances, O'Reilly's behavior wasn't out of line. Frank deserved it (and continues to) because he was lying and refusing to take ANY responsibility for his [huge] role in the mortgage crisis.

O'Reilly has a hot temper as we know. But I wouldn't fault him for that; at least someone pointed out Frank's involvement. It is better than the alternative, where a criminal like Frank gets away without any consequence at all.
