    I ordered it a while ago but I dont think I'll be able to stay up so will grab it tomorrow. Should be good. They were already on fire on Thursday on the Daily Show.

    great watch, covered a lot of topics and as much as I disagree with OReily he is honest and funny. I might not agree with him but at least I can see his point of view way up there on BS mountain.

    Bill was slightly less obnoxious than usual in fairness. Stewart's 'lift' gag had run it's course early on, I felt, but since it interrupted Bill's hysterical and inane banter as the debate progressed, 'have at it'!

    Bill: "Find what you're good at." "Everybody's good at something." "That's why I believe in god". "Find what you're good at and make money doing it."

    Anyone who knows Bill will understand this BS statement for what it is.


    Just noticed, Bill sounds very much like Bull.

    He's full of Bill!

    Just finished watching it there. Was rather funny when Jon Stewart was saying that he thinks everyone having insurance is a good thing but Bill clearly wasn't listening and started arguing over nothing. :pac: While O Reilly had some points that I could half agree with, there really was a lot of bull**** on bull**** mountain..... Justifying cutting the pbs budget is always going to be an impossible argument.

    If O'Reilly has dealt with Mr. Stewart in the way he swatted him aside during his appearance on the latter's show, should have been an excellent debate for Mr.O'Reilly.

    Both the stream and downloads are horrendous. Really really choppy and full of artifacts. But I still cant wait to watch if after paying for it.

    It would have been nice to see, but not enough to pay-to-see IMO. And I won’t watch it illegally since the money received from the event was to go to charity. I’ve seen enough of both O’reilly and Stweart to know it was probably quite entertaining and educational. And I figured O’reilly would probably up his stature by those who have drawn their conclusions about him primarily from the hate-filled left leaning media sources.

    As The Daily Beast and Newsweek are reputable media outlets and seemingly has permission to air short selected segments… I figure I’m safe here. Here are some legal highlighted video clips from the O’reilly/Stewart debate.
