I love this clip of Rocky. It shows how big of a weakling he is when it actually comes down to it.

Rocky Anderson love speaking just to hear himself speak.
Bill O'Reilly and the FOX gang are all twats! And I don't even care about politics.

Also, I was downtown the other night and saw the crown lit, then I got all excited and my friends just thought I was dumb.

I liked the fact that Rocky made the community more aware of environmental policies, and I liked that he questioned the LDS church regarding the City Creek Center, and helped stage a public forum, which then led them to redesign the place to be more open, and less-mall-like.

However, he is so offensive in what he says to Bill. He attacks Bill and says all these accusations, instead of listening and then presenting his view. It's fine to have certain views, but when you attack someone personally, that's when it's gone too far! Bill ends up doing the same thing, too.

LOL! You're saying this about an interview he had with Bill O'Reilly?! Bill is the master of not listening and being only offensive! He doesn't even give his guests a chance to talk... he basically invites them onto his show so he can roast them using only labels and no actual substance.

If Rocky used a typical Bill O'Reilly tactic back on him, then I'm all in favor. O'Reilly deserves a taste of his own medicine.

They both acted immature. You're right though, Bill lets you answer unless it's not his view - than he just interrupts you or moves on to another question.

How does a Development thread about 222 South Main turned into politics?

Read the threads. They were talking about some 'art work' to place over the parking garage next to 222. Someone posted that picture of Rocky to put on it as a joke...it went from there. Just the typical thing around here

Wow that movie was funny. Just a bunch of arguing back and forth.

"Do you just have guests on your program so you can hear yourself talk?"

"It depends on how cooky you are!"

Probably the best part.

If you don't care about politics then my guess is your opinion of O'Reilly and the "FOX gang" is not based off of much personal experience, but rather just hearing your friends complain about how terrible they are.

Nah, I used to care, but as of recent (or maybe I just didn't notice it until now), it seems that politics just fuels anger amongst everybody and I don't want to be a part of that.

We're supposed to be a United States of America, but how can we be a united states if we can't even be a united people? Politics to me has just turned into a go nowhere clash of egos.

Olbermann, Maher, and all the liberal oriented show host are all twats too bytheway.
