Jealous of O'Reilly in the week days of -- segment tonight as you may know we are urging the state of Colorado to pass Jessica's law 44 states -- haven't.
But Colorado will not even put it up -- a -- legislature.
That's because -- speaker of the house there mark -- -- has done everything he can to sabotage the law.
Recently just who what are spoke with -- do you know who look like a complete fool in an interview and we posted on billoreilly.com.
Education is the first time around.
Well after that exposition the Denver Post which leans heavily left editorializing -- -- -- fear mongering.
Should defend all coloradans he was -- gain.
But what he wanted to his listeners here was pervert had a -- Disagree then you try explaining what -- and you know sexual orientation and stance on civil unions has to do with Jessica's law on -- But of course is as dishonest as it gets we described the speakers openly day.
Because Americans don't know -- is in that description is used in almost every article.
Ever written about.
And the reason we brought up civil unions is because -- and Dino objected to that vote being sabotaged by Republicans a few years ago.
Then he turned around -- uses same technique to table Jessica's law.
The Denver vote should be a shame that of course it is not.
Joining us from Miami to purveyor Bernard Goldberg dot com mr.
Goldberg.
So this is a huge problem the State's largest newspaper pretty much working together.
With the Democratic Party out there and you say.
I say let me make two points one in your defense -- as if you needed and the second.
I want to take issue with you I think you made a mistake in one area.
First in your defense.
You were not attacking.
Mark -- he knows sexuality you were not suggesting that it was superb murderer pedophile has the Denver Post suggests.
I know you I know how you think about these things.
And I'm pretty sure what you were saying in addition to your explanation in the lead in.
What you -- saying is here's a guy a powerful politician mark very Dina.
Who supports civil unions and also supports legalization of marijuana two things you don't agree with bill.
And he's against Jessica's law something you think is very important.
And I think you're saying wait a second how could somebody support these things and oppose this thing.
Well what I correct you on one thing I do support civil unions are always half go ahead we'll.
Well that was the -- by the way that's what they.
Bill was last week you said gay marriage but that's yet with the civil unions nobody is a supporter of gay marriage and the reason that I did that.
What's to put into perspective who he did as -- did Arnold who this guy is not like Joseph Biden and only -- glad to tell people well.
This is what this -- interest it and this is what he -- -- that's my point right that's my point that you're you're saying.
This guy disinterested in this kind of stopped right and he's not an Irish unit and Mac and Hamas -- -- slot right so I'm with you on that and I think.
That the the editorial page editor took a cheap shot -- you okay here's where I think you were wrong.
You said that Marc Bern Dino the editorial page editor asks a question he says well why did Bill O'Reilly even bring up.
The fact that that -- and -- -- openly -- and you answered that in the -- and you said all the -- say that.
Everybody says that -- hardly the first person to say that the let's move beyond that.
I don't think you should have mentioned that he's openly -- Because.
Any liberal Democrat in Colorado or any other state would have been angry when.
And Republicans killed civil the civil union bill in committee it doesn't matter if they're gay or straight it doesn't really dark hole.
Sense that it matters that he is openly gay because he did the same thing.
To Jessica's law that he objected to on the civil.
Union situation how does that how -- sexuality.
What does -- sexuality have anything to do here's why and that's a good question here's what.
You have to basically get behind the motivation of the man.
All right.
And his motivation is very narrow.
He's got only a couple of things he wants to do in there that he feels passionate about.
But the kids apparently doesn't feel passionately about because again he's sabotage and that's all I'm trying to put demanded to some kind of perspective now I lost this -- -- solid Jesse -- Jesse killed.
And so when you lose a debate Bernie what do you do what do you do away.
-- -- -- -- you attack the person yet behind the -- But bill do you understand my position -- all -- so somewhat odd but I think what I should Edwards in context.
OK I think you should not have mentioned it because what -- did in addition to anything you were trying to do.
-- you gave ammunition to somebody who didn't need a lot of ammunition to go after that's fun.
The Democratic Party put out a fund raising letter.
I'm a couple of days before this Denver Post editorial and the language is almost the same.
Almost certainly.
So all right looking at a newspaper the Denver Post and by the way the guy wrote the editorial use just saw Curtis -- he says gonna c'mon.
On Wednesday so that should be interest and we hope mr.
Hubbard does.
Do you see that the Denver Post and you can look at all their editorial positions.
They did endorse the reelection of President Obama the election of President Obama of that marijuana legal is a -- -- strict gun control there and it looks like there embedded the Democratic Party.
Well and yet they are but then no more in bed with the Democratic Party in Colorado than the New York Times is in bed with the National Democratic Party.
Listen I don't know there was actually collusion between mr.
Hubbard and the -- at Colorado Democratic Party but I do know this.
The tool articles make the same points about you they both called you the same kind of names that track and not many it was a coincidence burning.
-- right I know Jamie McIntyre has guys have a little they just think this thing.
They came out four days apart right soul it makes you wonder but it's certainly possible.
That the editor of the editorial page editor of the paper read the letter and said hey yeah I agree with that changed a few words and then.
-- -- your money in the day when he come on when he comes in and ask them directly ask them directly bill did you have any conversations at all.
With members of the state Democratic Party before you wrote that.
That column and I'm not I'm not not supposed to ask anything about -- right to stay away from that.
I think you were wrong okay our first say why we I say that good -- that we have that's why we have John Glenn -- --
