“This trip was about meeting the troops,” said Army Captain Peter Katzfey who called the response to O’Reilly’s visit “overwhelming”. The 31-year old native of Plymouth, Wisconson coordinates media visits to Afghanistan including the “big names” like Diane Sawyer, but nothing compared to O’Reilly’s visit.
“He packed as many visits and events into a short period of time. From the moment he hit the ground in Afghanistan, radio and cable news host, Bill O’Reilly began to meet and greet the troops.
“It’s not an exaggeration to say he personally met over 1,200 people in less than 48 hours,” said Katzfey who coordinated many of the events. “All his meals were with servicemen and women,” and he came bearing gifts.
Anything to buck up those sagging ratings, right Bill-O?

Good for Bill… He’s one of the good guys. An obnoxious good guy, but OUR obnoxious good guy.

Nice work BillO. Can’t wait to hear what the retarded sports nutroot from the communist nutroot channel says about Bill’s trip. Oberheimer will be blinded with jealousy.

When is Olberdunce going to visits the troops?
Why? Do the troops need a live targets to train with?

As for his radio show, I cannot stand to listen to it. It is totally without humor or entertainment value of any kind. Contrast that with Rush, who is always entertaining even when you don’t agree with him.

Savage is much better.
He makes me think.
The others seem to be trying to make me forget how to.
