WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Conservative television news anchor Bill O'Reilly said on Tuesday he was now skeptical about the Bush administration and apologized to viewers for supporting prewar claims that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction.
The anchor of his own show on Fox News said he was sorry he gave the U.S. government the benefit of the doubt that former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein's weapons program poised an imminent threat, the main reason cited for going to war.
"I was wrong. I am not pleased about it at all and I think all Americans should be concerned about this," O'Reilly said in an interview with ABC's "Good Morning America."...
Let me repeat that, folks: Bill O'Reilly said the words "I was wrong". Never mind the subject, although I'm kind of shocked about that too (for the record he thinks it's the CIA that screwed up); it's the idea of Mr. O'Reilly admitting that he was wrong about ANYTHING, EVER... I mean, wow.
batyatoon, could you please start carrying an umbrella when you go outside? You live pretty near La Guardia's flightpath and I expect the incipient collisions between 727s and flying pigs to result in a rain of treyf.
