Rating: Summary: Bill...Oh Re-e-eally? Oh puh-leeze... Review: pompous. self serving. so many references to his o'highness, this bilious blustery, baseless book should be called... "bill o'whiney, who's looking out for ME???" (anybody? anybody?)maybe if he had penned this drivel after he'd cooled off over his failure to block al franken's book (featuring that blotchy picture of billy-boy) from being published he'd have come up with something useful. something...sensible. something...actually worth reading. instead, we are 'treated' to tips on good parenting (hey, who better to tell us how to raise healthy kids than a guy who dismisses anyone with a viewpoint different from his own, who honestly believes he's a 'powerful man'.? this kind of egotism is rarely capable of relinquishing center stage... one doubts in his ability to hold the camera--let alone use it to snap a shot of someone else. o'reilly's arrogance aside... uh...oh, wait, it's impossible to set his arrogance aside when he sacrifices so much valuable paper/ink to his own spineless-spittled-spewings! i'd always suspected this 'paragon of babble-on' took himself a tad too seriously, this offering is proof positive. just because he puts his paranoid/overly-rightous thoughts on paper does not make them worth reading.
Rating: Summary: Awful Review: Bill's overly simplistic view of America is nauseating! He pretends to be smarter than he really is, and I say pretend because it's so badly written, illogical, and overly simplistic that one has to laugh (and then cry about the money wasted on it!).
Rating: Summary: This Book Sucked Eggs Review: I cannot believe I actually sat down and read this book. I only gave it one star because zero stars isn't an option. Oh wait, did I say "book"? I meant "pile of garbage," and that's not fair to piles of garbage. After reading O'Reilly's "book," I realized the man has pioneered a new type of research: it's called "Let's Pretend." No research, just lots of yelling and questionable claims. Not only that the book was boring and self-congratulatory too. All this from a man who ran away from terry gross.
Rating: Summary: Who in Gods name would believe a word out of this mouth?? Review: I am agreeing with several other folkes out there who find this man to be such a joke. WHO IN GODS NAME WOULD TRUST THIS MAN??? Anyone that "goes after" Terri Gross is a top notch jerk in my book. Besides, like Al Franken says, his name should be called Bill O'Lielly. "if his mouth is open, he is probably lieing". And do not ask him to defend his opinions or allegations, or he will throw a temper tantrum and take his toys and go home. What a jerk.
Rating: Summary: Terrible! Review: Terrible book, Terrible person, Terrible...Terrible....Terrible!
Rating: Summary: Excellent read, very informitive Review: I highly recommend this book. Well written, straight up statements backed up with undeniable facts. Thanks Bill!!
Rating: Summary: BORING... Review: I borrowed this book from a friend...I would never buy anything from this man. I made it not quite halfway through and had enough. This was a lousy book...
Rating: Summary: Simple and easy to understand Review: Great book, recommend it. Short and easy read. Good points backed up by facts.
Rating: Summary: The Morton Downey Jr. Of The New Century. Review: This book is just like his show; he says a few common sense things and gives some very liberal points of view as well as some conservative ones but then turns around and criticizes liberal groups and politicians while going easy on conservatives (oh, except for Jeb Bush his token republican whipping boy). He starts and ends the book with some feel-good common sense ideas and annecdotes. I wish I could criticize this book, but there was really no depth to it. The only thing that I found really offensive was the polemical attacks against the Clintons. Other than that there was just trivial stuff along with some endorsement of religion in public life. There are no citations whatsoever in his book. I don't trust the truthfulness of his facts or his interpretations. Basically I wasted two hours just to say that I read it.
Rating: Summary: The Ruler Test Review: Hello there. I am here to review Bill O'Reilly's new book. Ahem. Now, usually when I critique a book, I like to employ what I like to call The Ruler Test, which I have patented and you cannot have. What you do, see, is you try to fit a standard ruler between the covers. If you can't cram it between, then the book is not worth your time. Bill O'Reilly's book is definitely not worth my time, and I don't even have a ruler. Bye. P.S. If I were you, I'd skip right past this lame putz's screed and head right for Timothy Crouse's "The Boys On The Bus," where you'll meet real journalists and lament that toothless, halfwit fictionmongers like O'Reilly now represent this once-unassailable breed.
