Video: O’Reilly defends Limbaugh from Letterman
posted at 4:35 pm on April 1, 2009 by Allahpundit
Via the ‘Busters and Ace, who’s caught up in a remembrance of funny things long, long past. Telling O’R that he’s too smart to believe the things he says is vintage Letterman — deadpan, insulting, but wry enough that it can be played as a joke. Bringing up Limbaugh’s drug abuse is simply vicious, and O’Reilly, to his credit, calls him on it, prompting a rare moment on “Late Show” when Letterman seems caught off-guard. As an antidote to the demonization, if you missed the Salon piece by Limbaugh’s lefty cousin in Headlines this morning, be sure to dive in after watching. It’s the most affecting and humanizing story about him I think I’ve ever read. Sample:
He’s the guy who puts “March of the Penguins” on his home movie theater screen for the little cousins to watch and makes sure his candy bowls are filled with jelly beans and doesn’t swear when my nephew tries to throw his antiques down the stairs. He’s the guy who came from nothing to something and knows what it feels like to miss Missouri.
One Thanksgiving he stands in front of all us relatives in his Versailles-looking living room, and before my grandpa prays over our meal, Cousin Rusty apologizes. He says he’s afraid he has made it tough to be a Limbaugh this past year, and his voice breaks like I have never heard it do before. Cousin Rusty is OK…
I rarely listen to Rush on the radio. But when I do, it’s because I’m scanning stations while driving, and I happen to hear his voice. As a family member I’m not as close to him as my mom and dad, my grandma and grandpa, but his voice still reminds me of home. He sounds like my dad and a few of my uncles, he sounds like himself, and it makes me homesick, if that makes any sense at all. So I listen for a few minutes. I rarely agree with or even like what he says, but I can’t hate him. In fact, I love him. He’s family.
Maybe he really is a harmless, lovable little fuzzball after all?

Awesome. I don’t know you either. But I also don’t spend my days trolling these boards as you obviously do.
But if you keep acting the idiot in the first 5 or 10 comments, I’ll keep calling you out as such.
Nessuno on April 1, 2009 at 5:25 PM
No kidding! This seems to go for most of the liberals.
You won! Enjoy. Relax.
carbon_footprint on April 1, 2009 at 5:26 PM
AP you have to post that interview.
Danger on April 1, 2009 at 5:26 PM
You know the left is getting nervous when even talk show hosts start focusing in on the conservative talk show hosts who criticize the political leadership. Normally, comedians, like Stewart, Letterman, Leno, make fun of the political leadership as their stock in trade. Now, they are carrying water for the administration. They invested so much in obama, they have forsaken their jobs as entertainers and comedians now and have taken up, first and foremost, the mantle of political hacks. This has never happened before in modern times.
And the reason? They are scared. They are scared because the political leadership is closer to them ideologically than anyone else has been before, so they are truly invested in it, and also because that leadership, the obama administration, has plummeted in the polls so much so quickly, that it looks as if it will drown, and with it their collective hopes for a once in a lifetime change towards the left.
For the first time in talk show history, the hosts are actually running interference for a sitting president.

Ah, ah, ah … that’s easy.
BigD on April 1, 2009 at 5:27 PM
Good. It’s either that or cry.
Ummm, OK. Are you a lawyer?
ddrintn on April 1, 2009 at 5:27 PM
OT: Beck’s got the young conservative English dude. That Brit is hilarious riffin on our DL.
Pianobuff on April 1, 2009 at 5:28 PM
They can’t, not as long as they’re tormented by the thought that someone, somewhere disagrees with them.
ddrintn on April 1, 2009 at 5:29 PM
this is probably the first time Letterman has actually had to think when having someone on his show.
GarandFan on April 1, 2009 at 5:29 PM
^ That’s why they feel compelled to log onto sites like this one with little more than the odd snark here and there.
ddrintn on April 1, 2009 at 5:30 PM
Ummm nope… just observing that his lack of humor is not for a lack of trying. Nothing deeper here.
Pianobuff on April 1, 2009 at 5:30 PM
Rightwinged,
O’Rielly did ask Dave why he had to “cheapshot” him. I think that was calling him on the “drug thing”
Danger on April 1, 2009 at 5:30 PM
In May you should hit the Indy500,..meet Letterman,….it’s such a disappointment.
christene on April 1, 2009 at 5:31 PM
Yeah, but the humor isn’t there. Kinda my point.
ddrintn on April 1, 2009 at 5:32 PM
I know, and tormented is an accurate word. They are driven by feelings/emotions, so when someone disagrees with them it makes them angry.
Conservatives, on the other hand, are driven by logic. When someone disagrees with our logic it only gives us a headache.
carbon_footprint on April 1, 2009 at 5:32 PM
Then we’re in violent agreement.
Pianobuff on April 1, 2009 at 5:34 PM
Letterman, a bitter, ugly, left-wing apologist scumbag. Pure scum.
O’Reilly, a stupid narcissist who can’t stop himself from being Letterman’s punching bag. O’reilly, You wanna be loved? Get a dog.
Western_Civ on April 1, 2009 at 5:37 PM
I did chuckle right around 4:12, when Letterman is unable to contain his anger at being bested by someone he so clearly loathes. O’Reilly usually bores me, but I give him points for that.
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 5:41 PM
Couldn’t have stated it better myself.
PrincipledPilgrim on April 1, 2009 at 5:50 PM
I was complaining at no one getting, or possibly choosing to intentionally ignore or misconstrue the joke I made. I didn’t watch the TV thing.
Letterman embarrasses himself when he gets political, O’Reilly always destroys him.
Proud Rino on April 1, 2009 at 5:52 PM
O’Reilly owned this humorless bucktooth clown.
jencab on April 1, 2009 at 5:54 PM
We all thought it was very funny, dear heart.
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 5:54 PM
Letterman should have asked Billdo if he still likes teh loofahs.
capitulus on April 1, 2009 at 5:55 PM
Translation: Guys who say things I like are funny.
Conan O’Brien is funny. Letterman hasn’t been for a long, long time.
TheUnrepentantGeek on April 1, 2009 at 5:55 PM
Letterman is a white Mos Def. He cannot have a serious discussion of facts because his opinions are so ill-informed and ignorance based, that if he were to try to get into a serious one on one with a conservative, he’d be exposed for the liberal asswipe that he is. In this clip he tried to get serious with Bill and Bill bitch slapped him with truth.
That was truly hilarious watching the vacuous dumb founded look on Letterman’s face when Bill made him see the idiocy in his opinions.
Now you all know what DTMH, getalife, and the rest of our resident donkey shit eating liberals look like and are thinking after we expose them for the psychologically damaged fools that they are.
It’s beautiful, beautiful schadenfreude!

Sorry! Let me rephrase: Marxist Muslim Terror trolls who are idiots and should die have feelings too.
Proud Rino on April 1, 2009 at 6:02 PM
Indeed…
hey Jim, love the chips, you watch C-Span for when you have insomnia or was that Amos I was jawing with last year?
sven10077 on April 1, 2009 at 6:03 PM
I only get a headache when trying to understand logic that isn’t logical… I’ve mostly decided that all liberals did the same drugs, it damaged their brains and they simply can’t think properly. I make them objects of pity.
Unless they get power. Then I am terrified, as now, that the world is being run by brain damaged people.
petunia on April 1, 2009 at 6:04 PM
O’Reilly owns Letterman in this one. Letterman repeatedly says, “You’re too smart to believe the things you say.” Translation: If you believe something other than me, you’re an idiot. Letterman is a left-wing ideologue who needs to come clean on his political positions.
How ironic that Letterman doesn’t like Chavez, yet the same nationalization of industries is happening here.
conservative pilgrim on April 1, 2009 at 6:07 PM
How absolutely fascinating that Dave really cannot even comprehend that conservatives actually believe the way they do.
Queen0fCups on April 1, 2009 at 6:09 PM
They don’t call it “totalitarianism” for nothing.
American liberalism is an expressly moralistic philosophy. They don’t believe their policies are more efficient, they believe they’re more righteous. Therefore, anyone who disagrees with them is immoral. The liberal holds precisely the same view of the conservative that conservatives hold of violent criminals – any number of them is too many.
I suspect some of the brittle anger we see from the Left these days is apprehension. Obama is a huge gamble for them, with the potential for tremendous payoff – the entrenchment of European-style socialism forever, or at least until the system crashes completely, which conservatives know is inevitable but liberals refuse to believe. If Obama is a disaster, and the electorate turns on them, it could bring on the same kind of political wilderness that Carter gave them… and they’re so close to the big win, the endgame scenario, they can taste it.
Because their philosophy is entirely based on emotion, leftists have no idea how to win an argument or concede their mistakes – they think arguments are won by shouting down the opposition until they fall silent. You’re not supposed to disagree with Letterman, or any other liberal – you’re supposed to salute their tremendous sensitivity and caring, make ritual gestures of obesiance to their leaders past and present, and then use any time they see fit to allow you to make your point – followed by the expected ritual confession that you’re probably wrong about anything that deviated from their beliefs. Come to think of it, that’s a pretty good summary of the entire McCain campaign, except for the parts that included Palin… and those were the parts liberals were most outraged by.
Doctor Zero on April 1, 2009 at 6:12 PM
I don’t think that they are scared. Yet. I think they still feel cocky and arrogant. I think they will then be in denial. Some of them will never realize…
We can only hope that those whose voted based on faith in the liberal media, but are not really invested emotionally… they will begin to be scared. They are the only ones who can stop this country from falling into Totalitarianism. The luke warm crowd.
If not we will wander in the socialist wilderness for the forseeable future. It makes me feel like writing a letter to future generations telling them I didn’t support this.
petunia on April 1, 2009 at 6:13 PM
Oh, sweetie. If only you were that interesting.
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 6:13 PM
Nope, doesn’t ring a bell.
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 6:15 PM
Now that is funny!
Del Dolemonte on April 1, 2009 at 6:16 PM
It’s amazing how bitter Letterman has become.
True_King on April 1, 2009 at 6:18 PM
I wonder if the elite in Venuzela understand what Chavez has done or if they are part of the problem like Letterman is here.
I think someone should ask Dave what he thinks. Because he acts like Sean Penn supporting Chavez is just no big deal. But O’Reilly not going to his movies… well that’s a problem?
petunia on April 1, 2009 at 6:19 PM
O’Reilley did very well on that.
I am not a huge Rush fan and I am well aware of the drug problem and all that and no doubt he had good connections and money to help him when he got into trouble.
But Rush Limbaugh had the same kind of problem with prescription drugs that tens of millions of other people have had and he got the help he needed to deal with it. And he did not let it drive him off the radio. So whether you like the guy or not, you have to admit he does not hide.
Terrye on April 1, 2009 at 6:21 PM
And btw, I think Rush is funnier than Letterman.
Terrye on April 1, 2009 at 6:24 PM
That’s how these narcissistic, elitist, leftist, fruitcake’s minds seem to operate; no one but they actually support their ideals and if someone has different ideals, oh hell, they must be making it up, it’s all showbusiness to them because no one could possibly think other than they think.
Letterman proves just how simple he really is because it never occured to him that ANYONE could have a different belief system and base them on actual principles instead of whatever fad “emotion of the day” comes along the pipe.
nelsonknows on April 1, 2009 at 6:25 PM
Letterman: “I have a sweet, adorable kid.”
Yeah, right. Your mother thought the same thing, and see what that got her.
When is numb nuts retiring, anyway? Carson blew you off. Leno has cleaned your clock. Fallon? Probably, too.
I think Letterman is the face of the Democratic Party. Until Franken gets to be Senator.
This guy is stuck in the 1980′s.
EMD on April 1, 2009 at 6:27 PM
Is Letterman stupid enough to think that the U.S. isn’t heading in the same direction as Venezuela? Yep, he sure is.
nelsonknows on April 1, 2009 at 6:27 PM
I think O’Reilley handed Letterman his butt here and probably picked up more viewers.
SoldiersMom on April 1, 2009 at 6:28 PM
Obsession of course… the date has no effect on anything.
petunia on April 1, 2009 at 6:34 PM
Letterman’s kid is so great, he waited 5 years to marry the mother.
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 6:35 PM
Doctor Zero on April 1, 2009 at 6:12 PM
Well stated Doc, as usual…
Just like the rest of the Liberal machine that took on Limbaugh, this classless POS pompous elitist Liberal talk show host, will also lose. While these tools are busy attacking Rush, Rush’s ratings are rising faster than can be tracked. When the potus decided to go after Rush, backed by the entire MSM, it only pushed Rush’s audience from approximately 20 million, to approximately 30 million.
Letterman is a raw nerve ending Liberal; not sure that holds true of Leno.
What’s happening with these idiots that make it their business to push a Liberal agenda; they are chasing all non-Liberals away from their shows forever. I used to watch Letterman on a regular basis. Then he decided to go after Bush & Cheney, while leaving the Piglet and Mr. Reid alone. Then, he went after our sons and daughters serving us in the military, this happened during the 2004 campaign. That was it for my family. Letterman hasn’t been on in my house for (5) years now. Liberals are dividing this country, and it will their undoing in the end. Kinda like “you’re either with us, or you’re a total idiot.”
Yep, that’s working out real well for them. Hollywood is tanking, print media is tanking, magazines are tanking… They all can’t die fast enough for me!
Keemo on April 1, 2009 at 6:38 PM
in lib circles he is old-fashioned….
Ogabe sr. ran marriage like a McDonald’s franchise…
sven10077 on April 1, 2009 at 6:39 PM
At least O’Reilly knows how to smirk off the majority of the cheap shots. Limbaugh’s problem with these guys is the way he tries to answer every salvo with a reasonable retort.
Never works with Letterman.

The Therapist on April 1, 2009 at 6:40 PM
O’Reilly was in good form here. He handled the interview extremely well.
mikeyboss on April 1, 2009 at 6:46 PM
AP must love Letterman. They both believe sarcasm is the only form of humor and they are both absolutely convinced that they are the smartest people in any room they enter.
Come to think of it, we’ve never seen them together. Hmmmm.
SKYFOX on April 1, 2009 at 6:55 PM
If Letterman is so smart, how come no one can change his mind? Other than a successful job, what seperates Letterman from the kids in Jason Mattera’s latest video? If we can’t reach them due to ignorance and can’t reach Letterman due to smarts, who can we reach, and how?

Braindroppings on April 1, 2009 at 7:05 PM
Letterman isn’t funny anymore.
TDBURN on April 1, 2009 at 7:05 PM
What will Letterman do with Letterman/Rahal Racing when the Obama administration changes the tax code so companies can’t write off racing sponsorship?
If you think that’s far fetched, as an April Fools spoof, Car & Driver ran a piece saying that the Obama administration was going to prohibit GM & Chrysler from participation in NASCAR and it was believable enough that many didn’t realize it was a spoof.
rokemronnie on April 1, 2009 at 7:24 PM
…but so accurate.
How about bringing up O’Reilly’s attacks on other media groups, when he merely doesn’t like what they’re saying? Quick, accurate and easy to turn into comedic form should O’Reilly try anything like that again.
sethstorm on April 1, 2009 at 7:38 PM
Like a true liberal- personally attack the messenger because THEY KNOW they don’t have any cohesive attack to wage against the message. Letterman is a has-been and he wasn’t that funny 20 years ago, much less today.
alwaysright43 on April 1, 2009 at 7:39 PM
That’s because he’s done some cheap shots on others in media.
sethstorm on April 1, 2009 at 7:40 PM
If Kolchak: The Night Stalker hadn’t gone off the air, ol’ Dave would be playin’ bagman for Leno.
Random Numbers (Brian Epps) on April 1, 2009 at 7:41 PM
…except that he’s had his viewers attack a “messenger” of sorts at his request.
sethstorm on April 1, 2009 at 7:42 PM
I’ve been to a Letterman show. The show is in the old Ed Sullivan Theater in Manhattan. Seeing it in person is much different than on television. The theater is kept very cool. Letterman could care less about the studio audience. As soon as the show ends the house lights go on and he runs off the stage. No “thank you for coming”, “I hope you enjoyed the show.” Nothing. I get the sense he is impressed with himself.
diogenes on April 1, 2009 at 7:47 PM
…but so accurate.
So once a druggie, always a druggie?
Hey Obama, what’s that up your nose?
itsspideyman on April 1, 2009 at 8:31 PM
It depends, if your talking about the run of the mill liberal that is a Michael Moore fan that doesn’t do anything other than learn their philosophy from whatever a politician tells them, with no intellectual curiosity whether something is true or not, then yes, their philosophy is emotionally based. But if were talking about the higher ups, then their philosophy is a religious faith that the fascist state is the solution, they see us as cattle and they as overlords. That is a different breed altogether.

njpat on April 1, 2009 at 8:39 PM
Did Billo just throw Rushbo under the bus, when he said Rush’s ratings went up BECAUSE his radio show went off the air? I think so. Chubby won’t like that.

Greco-Roman Kid….

O’Reilly should go for the low blow and point out Letterman’s ratings and his.

If Glenn Beck knocks him outta Fox, he might have to come begging to CBS.

How about bringing up the way Letterman constantly harangued McCain for over a week until he apologized, and yet he thinks Michael Steele shouldn’t have apologized to Limbaugh?
Jim Treacher on April 1, 2009 at 9:21 PM
Would it be insulting or simply true to say the same thing to, say, Lou Dobbs?
radiofreevillage on April 1, 2009 at 9:29 PM
Keep the Change..I commend the way you nailed it. Nicely laid out response.
malkinmania on April 1, 2009 at 9:31 PM
Letter man is a ass. It’s just taking him a long time to notice that he is.
jeanie on April 1, 2009 at 9:31 PM
Petty, mean-spirited little man. Can’t watch him any more. He’s too darn mean and angry.
sheesh on April 1, 2009 at 10:50 PM
I quite liked that interview. Had some testy moments but it definitely looked like they were both having fun. Could probably do with more of it, really..

I wonder if Letterman is wearing Depends yet?
Dr. ZhivBlago on April 1, 2009 at 11:42 PM
Letterman is a child with a childs mind. He will do childish things. He, along with his democrat know-it-all lemmings condemn a victory of good over evil in Iraq. They trample underfoot the victory obtained by the sacrifice of true Patriots (at home and abroad). They spew ignorant persecution such as ‘What did we go there and sacrifice American men and women for? To get Saddam Hussein?” O’R should have said Yes! And His Sons Also, we had to determine what he had ie.. could he aid muslim terrorists in any way. The death toll increased when muslim terrorists decided to make a stand in Iraq. Letterman is a fool in the ilk of Olberman, Mathews, Gregory et al. A waste of time, FUBAR
GD on April 1, 2009 at 11:50 PM
I love Rush. Even though I rarely get a chance to listen to him any more, I still love him when I can. When he retires I will be sad.
I have always thought that Letterman was a smarmy egomaniac. I am glad that his days will be over on television soon. I won’t miss him at all and I never watch him. As he approaches his end Letterman seems to be even more overtly liberal Democrat. I think he wants to get his bonafides stamped to the cocktail party circuit for his retirement years.
I normally do not watch O’Reilly either. But if Beck is put on either before or after him I might catch a snippet here and there. O’Reilly is too overblown for me. There is no real humor in his show and it usually just makes me feel slimy.
Hawthorne on April 2, 2009 at 8:16 AM
I can’t wait until Geithner wants to limit Letterman’s salary.
That will be amusing.
old trooper2 on April 2, 2009 at 8:17 AM
Your politics have destroyed your taste. I can understand why someone with weak logic can fail to appreciate any humour from Rush, but anyone that finds Letterman funny for any reason has lost it.
Asher on April 2, 2009 at 8:22 AM
Letterman will probably be the last man standing of those two, however.

kingsjester on April 2, 2009 at 9:15 AM
I’m not a huge Bill fan, but I thought he handled himself very well and handed Letterman his ass on several points. He stuck up for Rush (even though he doesn’t agree with him on many points) which I thought was admirable.
I did laugh rather loudly when Bill said Rush’s ratings went up when he quit radio.
rollthedice on April 2, 2009 at 9:15 AM
Rush and O’Reilly didn’t fall to the top of the hill.
Johan Klaus on April 2, 2009 at 10:02 AM
Wow, that was some serous pwnage by O’Reilly, and I don’t even like him. O’Reilly does not think of himself as a conservative, or as an entertainer. That’s probably why he is still #1 and his books are best sellers.
Letterman seriously hurt himself in this interview. I doubt we will see O’Reilly on his show again for a while.
rockmom on April 2, 2009 at 10:32 AM
Actually Stewart has taken some sharp shots at Obama, and I thought that a very wicked comeback for O’Reilly would have been to have pointed that out, in line with what “keep the change” pointed out. “So Jon Stewart is taking shots at Obama, but I can see you’re just carrying the water for him as usual. Aren’t you supposed to be a comedian? Why don’t you do your job?”
Letterman is a putz, that’s all there is to it.
smellthecoffee on April 2, 2009 at 10:34 AM
Ummm… Actually I found this interview entertaining.
Here is the real dilemma for conservatives. What shows can they go on to hawk their books? Im sure Obubba was wearing his verbal cup when he stepped on stage. It is certainly telling that the toothed one would call someone a goon to their face on air. Looking at Obubbas face, he didnt seem all that shocked to have had that happen.
Still it was nice to see how the segment unfolded:
1. Insult guests network
2. Insult guest
3. Insult guests friends (squirm after getting called on it)
4. Call guest dishonest (eventually compared to wrestling)
5. Call guest NOT entertaining
6. Call guests audience stupid

Speaking of teleprompters…Doesn’t everybody miss “Great Moments in Presidential Speeches?”
Blueneck on April 2, 2009 at 11:06 AM
I love Letterman’s condescension as he tells O’Rielly that he’s “too smart to believe the stuff he’s saying”. That sentence encapsulates the liberal mindset to me. If you don’t agree with liberals, then either you’re mentally defective, or, if they don’t want to (publicly) criticize you too much because your ratings are so high, they’ll imply that you’re a smart, swell guy whose message is only mentally defective.
So progressive!
Laserjock on April 2, 2009 at 11:18 AM
I enjoy Bill-o’s show; my whole family watches it. He has a sense of humor which is quite sharp, but rarely shows it. Miller and Beck guest appearances are awesome, too. And when he ambushes people like Ayers with his young “on the scene” reporters it is a hoot. Bill is very snobby, too, yet somehow still like-able….weird.
Ris4victory on April 2, 2009 at 12:14 PM
Saw the Letterman “IED interview.”
Knew the general contents in advance, so watched it with a scale on my coffee table.
On one side of the scale, a nationally syndicated radio commentator who has dealt with an unwanted prescription pain pill addiction due to a bad back.
VS.
A sitting president with a history of cocaine abuse. Let me say it again: COCAINE.
I knew I shouldn’t have placed the cocaine-using-president side of the scale next to my glass of rich, chocolaty Ovaltine: what a mess that spill made.

Depends if it’s a hill of trash – which it is in their case – that they sit on.
O’Reilly and Limbaugh aren’t young, and thankfully are a lot closer to the sunset than the sunrise.
sethstorm on April 2, 2009 at 4:18 PM
Like the MSM, Letterman, being unable to repress his leftist slant (egocentric enough to believe his opinions matter), is unwatchable. Like Sean Penn, he’s a bona fide pin head. O’R has egotistical issues of his own. He does himself no favors whatsover by appearing on moronic shows like Letterman and the View.
Rush remains nonpareil. He can & does speak for himself…quite well…every day.
