    For me, I find myself watching Glenn Beck, Scarborough Country, Hannity and Colmes. and sometimes the O'Reilly factor. Is it weird that a 13 year old is interested in Politics and watches Political shows?

I also agree with him on most issues.He hates PC, and mocks it on his show which is great.Generally supports Bush, but doesn't like his spending, border policy, or handling of the Iraq War.Believes Global Warming is happening, but people are making too big a deal of it.Pro 2nd-AmendmentDoesn't like the entertainment industry and is opposed to anti-smoking regulationsHe speaks what's on his mind and doesn't care what others think. That's what makes him in idiot? It's better than saying Politically Correct crap all of the time to make everyone happy.

I don't watch any of those shows, but I enjoy a good debate.

O'Reilly Factor is a good show because while he's conservative, he is fair and let's the opposition tell their side. Harball isn't a bad show, just don't like alot of the stories they do.

I've watched him at least 5 times where's he's gone nuts and told the opposition to 'shut up, shut up!'....he's always interupting his guests, and once he had on a teenager who's dad was killed on 9/11 and he was against the war in Afghanistan....and O'Reilly flipped out saying he was a disgrace to his father and cut off his mic.http://youtube.com/watch?v=3BAFb97L3KU Found the clip....what an ***hole, you can disagree with someone but thats classless. Bill O'Reilly didn't know his father, what a puke.

    I'm not a big fan out of the political shows, more so the political humor. Jon Stewart and Colbert piss me off. It seems like no matter what our government does they will make fun of them for it. It's like what the hell do you want them to do? If Bush cleaned up Iraq and healthcare for everyone in the country they'd probably make fun of it the next night on their shows. I don't mind Stewart as much as Clobert. Colbert's supposed ignorance is annoying, I'd like to see a guest on his show stand up and punch him in the face. Just like Jim Miller did to Jim Rome back on the old ESPN2 Talk show. That'd be great.

    I think Glenn Beck is pretty good..and this is coming from somebody who generally supports the democrats. He doesn't get caught up in defending the undefendable just because of the party. He just speaks his mind and pays no attention to it..more people should do it. Plus he is pretty funny and just your normal everyday dude.Bill O'Reily is the dumbest man alive. I can't see why anybody would ever watch that crap..he's wearing blinders and thinks he knows everything. Just very stubborn.

It wouldn't surprise me too much considering most of the country is mislead by the leftist media that has taken over television, especially the news. He says shut up to the idiots that come on the show because they truly are ridiculous. He lets some people on the show just to show America what some Americans truly believe. Idiotic guests like these: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR8vfrMooNsI don't see what O'Reilly did in that clip you posted as that bad...it's his show, he can do what he want. He is fair because he lets people from the opposite way of thinking on his show to argue with him. I think it was a bit rude but I think Bill was upset about a guy wanting to not fight and finish the war that his father desperately fought in.

Anybody with a shred of critical thinking could see that the show isn't "fair and balanced".

I happen to think that way politically and I agree with the views of Bill O'Reilly. I have read all his books minus his first one. I am more of a fan of his books than his show but I still watch his show all the time...it's just enjoyable to watch. If anyone is heavily influenceable it is you and so so many Americans that believe whatever the leftist media tells them, and believe the Fox News is evil and that George Bush is the anti-christ.
