Shocker: Karl Rove To Bill O'Reilly: Give Barack Obama A Chance!

[mannymmv]

oreilly is piece of shit

[dinxruntings]

HES A WANKER.....WAKE UP

[TheDiego2208]

Obama is the most open president, everything he does weekly is recorded & put on west wing week.

[slayerkicksass96]

Rove didn't say anything stupid for once

[sumskater999]

James Carville and Karl Rove are respectively God and Satan of political strategists.

[mlynn1231]

Healthcare? Interesting...

[dwayners13]

One day after Obama is elected and Bill's aready spreading the notion of fear. "we don't know Obama". We knew Bush and had reason to be afraid and were justified (two wars, ruined the country's standing and image on the world stage and decisions that led to the deaths and injuries of thousands around the world. Not to mention the effects his policies had on the economy, the middle class, the unemployed, the poor and young. Bill's stupidity and failure to use facts never ceases to amaze me.

[Seedofwinter]

A very capable person, but uses his abilities for immorality. Can't stand him for that.

[hameed]

have people in this country become so sick in the head that they want presidents in the party they do not like to succeed? I didn't like W's policies but I wanted him to succeed because god damn I live in this country

[Giants296]

Look at O'reilly's demeanor...the whole country was in a great spirit...and his is like are you worried about Obama like many Americans

[rusmah85]

why do Americans vote for stupid such as Palin and Bush?

[mritsfast]

Karl Rove and O'Reilly are the two biggest pieces of crap on the planet!

[orcgoat]

Karl Rove, a rare example of a respectable conservative on fox news

[mightyblack1]

Republicans need to stop hating like a bitch on a bloody pad and Dems to man up and start fight back like a hoe going against her pimp.Fox if you're about new htne be about the business of news instead of one sided bull shit.

[TouchOfGreatness]

Interesting commentary. Almost a year later it looks like seeing Obama fail is the purpose of FOX "news".

[MachinaSapien]

still partisan, but this is the most balanced interview ive seen from bill orielly. only because the day before his favorite party was crushed in an election.

[wavemakerboy]

Obama was picked by the elite to be the next president. The game of Rep v.s Dem has to be played to the public through media and Rove is doing a balancing act before the cameras but it is really shining thru that the elite has choosen Obama and wants everybody to accept him. Thru Obama they will have the new instrument of carrying out all their plans of getting banks wealthier and in real charge of the world.

Obamas campaign was sponsored by Wall Street

[yahoochatter]

Go watch another Alex Jones film then cry me a river.

[PriestsandParamedics]

lololol

[Apis4]

@wavemakerboy

Huge element of truth to that, totally agree.. but I have my sneaking suspicions about numerous 'puppet' leaders.. Obama being one of them.. that they WILL turn on their oligarch masters and actually try to make a change for the better.. well not always the better.. but independently. I think even after the Ayotollahs in Iran got him back again, Amedinejahd is another one.. though not maybe as alturistic... actually no maybe about it.. theres more.. if they survive ;-)

[matthlowder]

the entire interview Bill is trying to put words in Karl's mouth and get him to say shit. bill can be funny sometimes.

[SimVik91]

Oh fuck. Is Karl Rove in any way assosiated with Norway?! FUCK

[yahoochatter]

The name says it all dude. It's straight from Oslo.

[MaxwellBennett]

Ronald Reagan was a manipulating bastard. The worst president in history.

[yahoochatter]

He was a senile old bastard, who couldn't make it through the night without pissing himself.

[MaxwellBennett]

seems like a political ninja.

[truthinstyle]

I believe it is called free speech and it is protected within the First Amendment to the Constitution. If we listen to CNN or MSNBC we will see the converse of your argument.

[prebenso]

this is sickening listening to. As if both of them have any anything in their past that gives them right to critizies anyone. From a normal humanistic point of view

[newguyout]

The Bush-haters... well, at least Bush gave us a reason to hate him.

HAHA, lets see! A president who cheated on his wife (Clinton) or a president who completely screwed up a war (Bush)?

Which would I rather be dealing with? Here's a hint: one of those mistakes didn't leave over 4,000 American soldiers dead!

[mjlover23]

Mr Rove is the modern day example of a slick politian who knows what to say, when and how to say it! He even kept O'Reilly at bay with the way he gets his "politcal" point across. Even when O'Reilly tries to get him to spit venom. Don't be mistaken people, Karl Rove is and has been a dangerous man for several decades!

[pedroo8o5]

Yes. He is one of the smartest and most tactical political people ever. Love him or Hate him, u must admire his abilities.

[dwayners13]

@pedroo8o5 Admire him? Sorry I don't admire his tactics or intelligence. The smears on fellow republican's like McCain (the 'rumour' about his adopted daughter) or his admitted role in outing a CIA agent. According to your 'logic' we should admire anyone who is politically smart and tactical, regardless of his ethics, tactics or goals. I tend to set the bar a little higher. He is exactly what is wrong with politics today. I bet we will learn a lot more about his 'tatics' in the next few yrs.

[nblumer]

Hey I once said Obama was the guy who sneers at others at cocktail parties but now that he's in power he might throw my asss in the slammer so now I change my fiddle!

[langleywallingford]

if this lyin skunk had a lye-detecter atached to his ass it woulda cault fire!

[14mm2]

you do not understand how a lie detector works

[langleywallingford]

lol. I was makin a joke

[GorillaCrypt]

Look how Bill is trying to turn it over to make Obama a bad guy

[DavidRectum]

do you have to put a giant LOL after each sentence?

[USAneedsaChange]

Interesting discussion. Didn't know he was part norwegian. I believe in change... :-)

[Lavalampoflava]

lol, there are times when I like Karl Rove.

[langleywallingford]

reely? methinks mr Bumble is qute an acktress

[mnnh1]

Karl is a wise old head and he knows that Obama has what it takes. O'Reilly knows this too but continues to make that old 'nobody knows who Obama is' argument. But deep down they both know he has a good chance of pulling off an economic recovery and a succesful first term.

[jfan2000jfan]

What pundits mean when they say "Nobody knows who Obama is" is that he has no legislative track record. What legislations did he write in his 2 year career? We know he's a great orator, but what papers and opinions did he write as a 6 year state legislator and professor? Search the internet you can't find anything. No point of views, nothing form his past what would be a track record and predictor of his actions for the future.

[ellwyn]

most conservatives and republicans hope that the people will continue to have as much freedom, prosperity and happiness as can be achieved. to the extent that obama shares those values, he deserves our support. nonetheless, we will remain vigilant, because he has had a long personal history of comments, writings and personal associations that run contrary to those aims. for that reason, he will never fully earn our trust, no matter what policy choices he makes.

[bmxtra211]

"So you want him to succeed even though he's in the other party?"

Yea Bill, imagine that.

[fmm88ka]

haha, true. Karl at least makes sense or something republicans can understand that get over it Obama is your president.

It seems like Karl knows that Obama is gonna be a good president but is trying not to lean towards supporting him, of course.

[332ndVFGBearcat]

Why would it be a shocker that Rove says give him a chance? The notion that that wold even be an issue is ludicrous. It just goes to show you why we are where we are as a nation. if our elected officials put as much energy into doing whats best for the country and the people instead of this partisan nonsense and sucking up to the lobyists, we would be better off as a nation. Everything Rove said that "the job requires" Obama ha more tnan demonstrated. People just don't want to see it.

[seeker4truth]

Karl Rove is parroting the Republican party line. He knows that Obama is more than qualified to be President. He hesitated in his answer b/c he needed to formulate his answer so as not to appear to endorse Obama above Mccain. Both O'Reilly and Rove need to question Obama's talents to ease the anxiety of their constituents who swore that Obama would not win. Now, anyone with a sane open-mind can clearly see that Obama is right on the job, as evidenced by his transition to the White House.

[Cantanbano]

thank you karl rove, EVEN IF SOMEONE IS FROM A DIFFERENT PARTY, DOESNT MAKE SOMEONE AN IDIOT, LETS NOT HATE OUR PRESIDENT, this is something demolibs can learn, i hope obama exceeds. Hes most likely going to screw up, but i want him to succeed, because it affects me. he hasnt even become prez yet, and he is already in the middle of a scandal, woo hoo

[shan4short]

Is it just me or does Karl Rove have a humongous head?

[katkal3]

he just has a small body ,kinda like scrappy doo.

[jrebstock]

democrats can thank Rove for his inept decision making (for GWB)....which gift wrapped the nov election for obama and the dems.

[midwestex]

Wait a minute? I listened to O'Reilly's radio program a few days before the election. He said, "I'm not going to be afraid if Obama wins, as a matter of fact, I will support him if he does". Now this? I just laugh at these idiot talk show folks. And they laugh all the way to the bank.

[homeskil6850]

the republican party should learn that they should stop the hate ads....stick to the issues and oh yeah, don't try to get a dumb alaskan governor for VP...if they do this again in 2012, we'll have democrats again...

[nathancheney]

ok, i agree with the dumb bitch palin, but don't say anything about negative ads, obama ran them too. untill a democrat does not, u have no grounds not to tell us to...

[homeskil6850]

wrongo slicko...Obama only ran negative ads because of being bombarded with mccain/palin negative ads. i don't know the facts but i bet the ads were 5 to 1 republicans. but it's a little late to complain about the outcome. get on the bandwagon or get off. are you an american? you accepted GW for 8 years, now i'm sure it won't hurt to accept our new president.

[nathancheney]

ok...i said NOTHING about obama. I think he will be much better than bush. that was not the issue....slicko.... If the dems dont' run hate ads, they will have the authority to tell us not to. wow...... nice "reply"

[imperialcereal]

who the hell is the far left his talking about?? U mean the kkk? thats the FAR FAR FAR RIGHT.

[ibenzawla]

I never knew Carl Rove was that reasonable. He accepts defeat in a very honorable way proving that he is a true America. Oreily, Hannity and Co are struggling to comprehend the fact that a blackman from no where could become MR President. This is the new reality folks. Take it or leave it. Our world is changing.

[KamasutraButterfly]

I wonder if this kind of debates would take place if Obama was white? I mean "give him a chance"? What's that about?

[548768]

Obama ran a : "no fascism '08" campaign. On nov 4, 2008 the horrors, deceptions and lies of fascism ended. Extremism ended. You ended. NO FASCISt dictatorships!!!

[cornagainstsorcery]

Yes how dare Democrats begin indictments over corruption and war crimes. I forgot, those are reserved for sex scandals.

[whynot1871]

think about what rove says starting at 1:23. it's pretty alarming. according to him, the problems that have plagued the united states for the last 8 years aren't bush's fault, or the fault of his administration, of which rove himself was a part. no, they're the bush-haters' fault. he doesn't give evidence to support his insidious claim. he just throws it out there as a blanket statement to divest himself and his former colleagues of any responsibiblity. these are the actions of a child.

[Sage18]

united we stand divided we fall

how low we the American have fallen

don't republicans and democrats serve the same country, these differences are good, but we're letting it go to far.

[pfriverrat]

ok, so now all you people that can't open your minds, are you gonna let obama vote present for his new job. I am gonna nit pick him, cause like the rest of his party, and most of the news covers it up and is slanted, cause when he worked in this state, he didnt do anything big, but vote present. Fuck the dems, but glad they won, don't have to hear them cry for recounts, and they will blow it, and be gone in 2 years. bush 20% rating, dem congress 9%.

[tyu30]

where the fuck do u get your datas from, imbecile...

[pfriverrat]

do me a favor, answer these 2 questions. 1. Why did every rip bush for is 20% rating, but nobody ripped the dems 9% rating, instead voted more in? 2. Why is it the dems always want recounts, more taxes, and always have hearings over non important issues? If you can give me reasonble answers, not only will i be impressed, but i may have a storke.

[tyu30]

@pfriverrat -I dont wanna get into a debate with you when i can barely understand your written english. Here's the Aproval rating for both parties, keep in mind Democrats have more elected officials in office, yet with a greater approval compare to the GOps.

Democrats47.6Republicans38.6; Source, Real Clear Politic

[gujubadboy]

Bill O Reilly: "I don't know who he is still after all the time. His people keeps the press away".

Bill O is a fucktard! Is that why he did a 30-min interview with Barack Obama and basically lambasted him? And Obama passed that interview with flying colors.

FUCK THE GOP! SEAN HANNITY AND THE FAR-RIGHT

[vanacho]

Bill tried his hardest to make Karl say that Obama wasn't qualify for this job... how lame. Bill: Barak Obama is YOUR president now !!!! How does that feel? LOL !!! and to all those how are afraid of change and race...I'm sure you are shitting your pants right about now !!!

[green9707]

Mr.O'Reilly... shut@#$fuck up idiot...you just talk crap you idiot..I'm so sick about your fucking videos spread all over the web..gimme a break and make me a favor..resign!! quit!! leave!!Hey Fox C.E.O. what you was thinking when hired this asshole?

Shame on Fox News...

[JNStMarks]

Carl Rove is right. We need to back this new administration up, especially with the problems we face. We are more enlightened then every before, so we need to question everything, and put our opinions out there. It's the only way we learn and see other peoples sides to things. No more dictators, and we need to hold Obama accountable for doing the best and making the best decisions. I find him to be a listener and interested in all points of view, which is good in leadership.

[buffycharmedangel102]

Exactly, that is all Obama wants.. he wants us to UNIFY!! We have to back our President if we really want change in America. If we speak, Obama WILL listen! It really bothered me that McCain supporters have "Booed" our new president during McCains last speech. Where as Obama supporters cheered for McCain. The right candidate definitely won this election, no doubt about it!

[justinnumberone]

holy shit! o'reilly acknowledged that there, in fact, IS a "FAR RIGHT"!!!

[DakotaPunk]

Karl is just aligning himself with the winning side....following the herd!

Thanx for uploading.

[krbkrbk]

He's giving him a chance. That's the decent thing to do. Especially for all republicans that didn't want to vote for him in the first place, people like me. However, even though we don't like him, he was elected president, and he deserves a chance at making the country great. He deserves our support as well, until he screws up.

[srayj]

I hate Bill O'Reilly which begs the question, why do I watch these clips that piss me off so much? I was hoping Bill would pull the stick out of his ass long enough to say congratulations to Obama on a hard fought election and a strong win, but no, Bill has to say how fearful everyone seems to be. Why can't he just for once admit that a "liberal" could be what our country needs at this time? Especially since Bill claims to be neutral not like all those liberal biased news shows. Ha! Yeah right!

[MartialArtistWannabe]

Dude, I took Obama's side during the Mccain-Obama contest, but a liberal is the LAST thing we need. Absolute last.

My only hope is that Obama's advisors and Congress have much smarter, more responsible plans for our country and that Obama's open-minded. As soon as he sees that actual situation of the country, it should become evident to him that his plans won't work at a chaotic time like this. Hoping his Harvard brain still works.

I can never tell if Rove is sincere or not. Slick dude.

[krbkrbk]

He did say congradulations to Obama for winning...........

Just not in this video. Keep searching. You'll find the video.

[AmyKay01]

"theswatter" has it right. It looks to me like O'Reilly's tactic with Rove is to egg him on and try to put words in his mouth. What a reject.

[marKism69]

Rove is slick as shit. His party got spanked so thouroughly that he has no choice except to act sympathetic and get try and align himself to the winning party. FYI he absolutely smeared McCain in the 2000 repub primaries. This guy is pure poison.

[tuor1984]

marKism69 speaks 100% truth. It's so painfully obvious he is kissing ass now because the GOP have no power anymore whatsoever. Congress, Senate, Oval office; all owned by the Dems now.

[kendrarasolo]

Rove owns your ass Bill O!

[rouey]

Looking from the outside, I feel that delirious "neocons" like O'Reilly have their share of the guilt for the failure of the Republican party in the past years.

[Polybun]

ITS TURD BLOSSOM!

[gunitbballer23]

the worst part about this is that o'reilly is "afraid". what the fuck could he possibly be afraid of obama doing? there are restrictions on what a president can do (besides the bush administration with the p.a.t.r.i.o.t. act and restriction of liberties)

[arubberball]

The FAIRNESS DOCTRINE, is Bill's biggest fear, and it should be your's as well.

[theswatter]

O'Reilly is such a moron. He's baiting Rove to say something negative about Obama. Why is this idiot on TV? Oh wait..it's Fox.

[2oldforallthisBS]

Hey Bill O.

This bullshit is what cost your party the ellection. Give it a rest. NOBODY cares what you have to say. Support your country by shutting up!

[bdlilrbt]

Shut up bill. he won by over 100 electoral votes. You are about to be all washed up.

[Nebzz]

Rove: Bill you were right as always.

Billo: *blushes*

Rove: Bush failed because of the Bush haters.

Billo: *looks lustfully into Roves eyes*

[snakekiller]

Rove appears as a moderate figure...

HELL FREEZES!

[megamarsvin]

Don't worry it's a strategy. Rove doesn't do sincere. ;)

[Nayrman214]

"A lot of fear about this guy"

Maybe from right wing networks like Fox...not average americans according to the election

[Clap4meBitch]

"what people are talking around the kitchen table about" ----so out of touch. Do conservatives not realize that a lot of people don't even have kitchen tables (or stable families) to talk around? Raptor Jesus is pissed.

[poidog2006]

Karl Rove is one of the problems with the Republican Party. He is a crook.

[scotishstriker]

O'Reilly just wants his fox news cookies

[nosleepthx]

The worst thing to do is dwell and be negative about what hasn't transpired yet. We're completely broke, we're at odds with multiple nations, the next thing is apocalypse. I'd like to think that it's clear enough this man won the election. It's over. Now it's time to fix the mess that's been created. No time to damn the guy now. It's completely counterproductive.

[nosleepthx]

"So you want him to succeed"? Bill O is really stupid. I for one am not that enthused about Obama or any of these clowns who could have been pres but for the love of something other than ourselves, this guy hasn't even made it into office yet. Let's at least let him begin to attempt to correct this shattered country. Any pres coming in after the last 8 years has his work cut out for him. Let this guy at least get started before the criticism and fear ensues.

[toxikhiro]

I never thought I would see the day when I liked Rove better than O'Reilly.

Maybe Rove is redeemable!! Redemption '08 and '09!!

[jmad95]

i concur.

[frogee123]

Typical redneck loser ideology.

[soccermanV]

orielly is a dick..he wanted to twist the whole shyt around and get pple to hate on obama now that he is elected..Glad Rove talked some sense into him..kwasia

[bemaniac2]

its so funny. these people ruined the world and tried to destroy obama and now they are all like, lets love obama. anyway, id rather have them support him than not.

[keelorenz]

Was Rove about to punch O'Reilly?

[grburch]

Is there anyone who ISN'T about to punch O'Reilly? If anyone ever deserved a crippling heart attack/stroke combo, it's that motherfucker.

[sweetashoney2004]

lmao

[angbi]

" i heard a lot of fear in the radio " yeah that's because you fucking spread it

[Zoth77]

LMFAO!

[andyz85]

bush haters aka the whole fucking country

[TheRedPriestofVenice]

Are you confident Obama can do this job ??

What a ridiculous question to pose to the guy who was confident that retard Bush could do the job. Wow.

[sweetashoney2004]

LMAO!!!

[TheRedPriestofVenice]

These guys are sick with jealousy. They know they're not half the man Obama is and for that reason they would love to see him fail. Do not believe anything Rove says. He's a power obsessed jerk. A professional liar and phoney.

[crayolasniffers]

Bush haters? Bush Haters?

[devilzmantis]

OH GOD! FOCK both of these guys. FOR 8+ YEARS they've been spewing hate and lies! They know they have to kiss ass now.

[Makani20]

I never in a million years thought I'd see something that would make me feel sympathetic towards Karl Rove, but he makes a lot of honest, fair points. But the best part was when Bill said he doubted the right-wing ideologues would give Obama a chance, those buggers.

[nekodesigner]

he is probably just attracted to power and influence. but is true, i despise both this guys, and after hearing rove talk in this segment i too feel sympathetic

[Makani20]

The power thing probably has something to do with it, I've watched it again and my new favourite O'Reilly line is "You want him to succeed even though he's in the other party?" So glad this election is over, taking a official 3 month hiatus from network news.

[keelorenz]

Bravo.

[illm4t1c]

wow. what a revelation: Republicans need to talk to Americans about THINGS THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT... Almost as if they're POLITICIANS, whose decisions effect people's lives. What a joke. Rove learned that the nasty, negative, degrading tactics that HE HIMSELF has been responsible for have hurt America and the Republican party.

America, lets move forward. End the nastiness and downright BS in politics.

[HotLeper]

Rove got emotional when O'Reilly attacked Bush. They didn't lose because of Bush. They lost because McCain ran a dishonest and ineffective campaign.

[nekodesigner]

also because he chose a nutjob as running mate, one who was a hearth beat away form the presidency
