[lbo-talk] O'Reilly demands mom of dead war vet "choose between Bush or Michael Moore"

[B.]

Falafel Bill goes for a new low on his program by
demanding the mom of a slain war vet "CHOOSE BETWEEN
BUSH OR MICHAEL MOORE." The woman was booked to be an
"anti-Cindy Sheehan," apparently [Cindy Sheehan being
another mom of a slain war vet who is protesting in
Crawford], but she ended up not going by the script
O'Reilly wanted her to.

Bill O'Reilly Lowers the Bar

I was watching this segment come up tonight and I
thought that Bill had brought on a mom named Dolores
Kesterson  who had lost her son in the war and who
would take an opposite stance than Cindy Sheehan.
Thomas de Zengotita on the Huffington Post noticed
exactly the same thing I did: "Dolores was slated to
be the anti-Cindy Sheehan." Read his piece.

Video-WMP ( I edited out most of the first half of the
interview )

Bill asks her to choose between Michael Moore and
President Bush, I kid you not. Her answer: "Well, I
don't really know everything that Michael Moore stands
for, but I know he hasn't caused anybody to be killed
for no good reason..."
