(42,862 posts)... express any hope that O'Reilly's show wouldn't be cancelled?
It's all pretty much "just for show" anyway. I'm sure it made O'Reilly feel important and significant (even though he KNOWS in his heart that he's not going to have a show to return to.).
O'Reilly is such a PHONY!! But, I'll bet this "chance" meeting pleases O'Reilly's die-hard fans as well. They'll see it as being something more meaningful than the (obviously) staged photo-op that it actually was.
O'Reilly is such a LOSER!! I'll be glad when he's gone. He needs to just fade away into the sunset. I hope that I NEVER have to see his face or hear his voice again.
O'Reilly is such a LIAR. He lies about Obama, about Hillary, about Democrats in general and he lies about the Democratic Party. The world will be much better off without his negativity.

(42,862 posts)... or perhaps he had to rush-in and "ambush" the Pope whenever he saw his opportunity to get close.
I'm thinking that the Pope had NO IDEA who he was... from the Pope's perspective, it was just another RANDOM STRANGER in the crowd.

At least that's what I heard.

(82,849 posts)O'Reilly looking for a miracle to save his job from a man whose theological positions O'Reilly despises. Any port in a storm, and this Foxhole isn't going to go atheist anytime soon. Side note to the Almighty: This would have been a good opportunity to have O'Reilly's tie spontaneously burst into flames. I know you're not into the theatrical stuff anymore, but . . .

It's photoshopped, O'Reilly is drinking schnapps in his man cave. Sulking.

(4,407 posts)Now he's working on two options;
Continued denials and assertions he is the victim.
Claim he has been rehabilitated and found the path back to the straight and narrow.
Stay tuned to see where he goes next...
