The General, taking it outside the Democratic echo chamber to the battlefield, shows how it's done. "Don't you try to charm me, General!" Lord have mercy.

O'Reilly, squinting, said he's going to have "my guys" FedEx Clark a package of who this guy really is. Clark said "That's character assassination", and O'Reilly, wide-eyed now, replied "You bet it is!" Realizing what he just said, he started shouting, "No! It's facts!" Clark was talking about the American values Soros puts his energy and money behind - democratization, free press - and O'Reilly shouted "that's bull!" Famous refuge when he's losing. He started ticking off on his fingers all the causes Soros supposedly supports that O'Reilly must find un-American: open borders, legalized narcotics, euthanasia, blah blah blah.

Soros is "undermining the country abroad, wants a one-world government, as radical..there isn't a person in the country more radical than him. You took 75K from the most radical individual in the United States of America!"

Oh puhleeeze - hyperbole much?

Clark kept his cool, and said "You're just going after somebody." O'Reilly said "You bet!" Clark: "It's personal, and it's wrong." BOR: "It's not personal!"

Clark told him to look at the results; he doesn't have to defend his views. O'Reilly, out of everything, said that Clark is a patriot, but who he associates with is what people are going to judge him by. Clark, bless his heart, smiled and said "Well, I'm associating with you." (I'm giving him Top Dog for that line alone, though the rest of his appearance was superb also.)
