Grasping at straws

Bill O’Reilly in confrontation at Obama event

Secret Service officials separated O’Reilly and Obama aide Marvin Nicholson after the Fox News Channel personality grabbed Nicholson on a post-speech rope line in a high-school gym here. According to a witness, O’Reilly reached with two hands for Nicholson — who at 6-foot-8 had a slight height advantage over O’Reilly — because he stood between O’Reilly’s cameraman and Obama as the newsman called out for the candidate’s attention.


Hm. Must be hard to be marginalized, especially with an ego as big as O’Really’s. I wonder how this would have gone at a GOP event? If a liberal host had grabbed someone from McCain’s campaign? Uh huh. Violent beating, arrest, charges.

Mr. O’Really best behave if he comes to the Democratic National Convention - folks in Denver might give him the surprise of his life.
