Well I hate whoopi but I think a lot of people like her. It's the yelling and obnoxious sensationalism that scores all the ratings.

oh, just quoting barbera walters (did you even watch?) Ya know the part where Barbera says "Hosts should NEVER do that"
I think a host doing something a "host should never do" might be grounds for firing? Maybe I am stupid tho?

Is Barbara Walters their boss? If not, then I would say the answer to your last question is "yes".
However, I was impressed with how Ms Walters handled it. He obviously didn't at all agree with O'Reilly, but still recognized that the discussion needed to happen.
I was NOT AT ALL impressed with Whoopi, Joy OR Bill in this one. All three looked like asses.

on the turnside, if you're hosting the show and you invite a guest, keep him in control or ask HIM to leave.

Outrageous?
The sun is excessively hot and bright! ... Outrageous!
Objects tend to fall towards the center of gravity! ... Outrageous!
Muslims sent two planes into the World Trade Center and attempted to attack the White House and the U.S. Capitol. ... Outrageous!
But true. The above three statements are all true. Like it or not, they are all true.

Taxes are a joke. Regardless of what a political candidate "promises," they will increase. More taxes are always the answer to government mismanagement. They mess up. We suffer. Taxes are reaching cataclysmic levels, with no slowdown in sight
McVeigh also wrote to Congressman John J. LaFalce, complaining about the arrest of a woman for carrying mace:
It is a lie if we tell ourselves that the police can protect us everywhere at all times. Firearms restrictions are bad enough, but now a woman can't even carry Mace in her purse?
He told a student reporter:
The government is afraid of the guns people have because they have to have control of the people at all times. Once you take away the guns, you can do anything to the people. You give them an inch and they take a mile. I believe we are slowly turning into a socialist government. The government is continually growing bigger and more powerful and the people need to prepare to defend themselves against government control.[23]

While the divisions are indeed deeper in Islam than in Christianity (while Christians generally had huge debates over doctrine they didn't go about killing the other's leders during the early centuries which happened in Islam) Al Qaeda is probably more friendly than the huge hostility that had existed between the Orance Men and the Irish Catholics, who were literally at war with each other. Al Qaeda will generally only attack other sects in order to further its goals against the Non Muslim Great Satan. The other case where the tangled web is woven is their common enemy the Zionist State of Israel.
All of this gets woven into the current project to build what was originally called Cordoba House right in the open wound of 9/11. You constantly try to wrap things into this that are just not true.

Yes, well, Oklahoma was bombed by a Christian so of course you are guilty.
Actually, in truth, a lot of what you post here could be taken directly from McVeigh's writings.
Examples of McVeigh's writings, from Wikkipeadia article:Taxes are a joke. Regardless of what a political candidate "promises," they will increase.
