		<description>I am one of the unfortunate US people that have been unable to visit  Amsterdam but do planning on going one day. I agree with the many that say that the US needs to adopt the Dutch ways. I feel that Bill O’Reilly needs to taken off the air and never allowed back into the media field for any reason. One of the rules for the media is not to report lies and false statements, so I&#039;m wondering why it is he is still allowed to be on the air.  I truly hope that one day the US wakes up and realizes just how much it could help to follow in the Dutch&#039;s foot steps.</description>

		<description>I am an American, former US Marine, and embarrassed, not by O&#039;Reilly&#039;s comments, but that certain sections of our populace take this espousing of distorted facts and ratings grab, as the truth.
O’Reilly started off as a sensationalist, Hollywood paparazzi reporter on Inside Edition, that he tried to pass it off as a real news program.  He then moved to Fox News to be the voice of conservatives.  His show has no real news value it is all about outrageous statements to inflame his audience for ratings.  
FOX stands for Feed Our Xenophobics.</description>

		<description>Well done!
I went to Amsterdam in January &#039;09 to see for myself.  I can&#039;t add anything to the discussion; it&#039;s all been said.
My only criticism is that you are wasting too much time and effort on what these people think.
Do you really want people that believe Bill and Company visiting you?
Let them think what they want.
See you all again soon!</description>

		<description>Geweldig gedaan jongens !!

Tja, Bill, wat moet je daar nu over zeggen … Anyway, for your American readers I’ll continue in english. Bill, when you said “cute propaganda”, did you mean it doesn’t live up to your standards ? I mean seriously, when I watch your show (which is usually for a couple of minutes because after that I start feeling sick because of all your comments), isn’t your complete show propaganda ?? If you, or your fellow/buddy host Glenn Beck, know everything so well of how things should be done in the USA, why don’t you two try to run for the presidency ? Or will the PUBLIC embarrassment be too big for you ? …. If you ever make it through the primaries !!! Robbert and Elian, I applaude your video, your reporting on the facts (instead of trying to make fiction a fact, what Bill does anyway) and you made it to the “Bill O the Clown show” to have him look stupid for a second time !!! This week the celebrations of New York 400 are happening, and I guess Bill O never paid much attention when he had history class in school. The same liberty, right of an opinion and freedom of speech but still equal rights for everybody are here BECAUSE of the Dutch !! That is exactly how they started their first community on MANHATTAN !!! Manhattan … you know, that’s where Bill lives !! I especially say community because of the acceptance of ALL people who wanted to start a new life on Manhattan.
Anyway, people of the world, Amsterdam is a great city, a relaxed city, a safe city and yes it has it’s flaws and down sides. But hey, don’t all cities in the world have their down side ? Look at New York City’s Bill O’Reilly ….. 

Pieter, NY

(by the way …. O’Reilly …. isn’t that irish ?)</description>

		<description>I am a Scotsman who spent 19 years in the States.  I have been back in the UK since 1998 and have visited Amsterdam 9 times.  It is a fantastic, safe city with friendly people and a great atmosphere.  Bill is a pompous moron that actually believes his own right wing rhetoric.</description>

		<description>Maybe Bill O’Reilly is doing us all a favour: Those Americans that are so ill-informed and prejudiced as to believe this stuff won&#039;t come to Amsterdam or anywhere in Europe.  Bill is helping to weed out the uneducated from those Americans who visit Europe.  I guess they will all go to places like Miami or LA (which are of course, free of drugs, prostitution and other aspects of organised crime due to the recent years of his party&#039;s administration).</description>

		<description>You cannot compare Bill O&#039;Reilly with Glen Beck. Bill knocks everything he doesn&#039;t agree with from his right-wing, republican background and lies about it. He presents it with pretty ladies, so people may pay attention to it. He even appeared on Oprah.
Glen opens up a discussion or spreads an idea and doesn&#039;t distort or lie about it. You don&#039;t have to agree with him.</description>
