O'REILLY: I know. You set yourself up as a Hollywood pinata. That's what you do. All right. You say these things. I know what you meant. I've known you for more than a decade. I know what you meant. But people who hate you, and they are legion — you and I are probably the most hated people in the country. All right? By different crews. -- But you know, you don't give the other side anything.

Plus, what you said about Cheney, with all due respect, is dopey. All right? Saddam Hussein killed far more people than are dying in Iraq. And would have continued to kill them.

So to say that about Cheney — you know is discounting all the tyranny that Saddam Hussein brought into that poor country for 30 years.

MAHER: Right. Well, anyway. Bill, what this really is about is that there was a level of anger — because people don't like being lied to — that we haven't seen since I would say the early '70s in this country. That's what really is behind all of this. People don't like being...

O'REILLY: That's true. But the anger is on both sides. It cuts both ways. But it's true. It's an angry nation. It's going to be interesting to see who they elect as the next president, who we elect.

5. O'reilly DREAMS of being the "most hated"...but he just doesn't have the skills.

If he was even CLOSE, his ratings wouldn't be dropping so badly.

He's PITIED more than hated.
