O'Reilly and O'Bama ~ By Chrissy Satterfield

My fingers are crossed for O'Reilly. I know he'll do a great job, but I thought that about my Chargers, too, and look what happened. People will remember this interview. And I hope it's when they are at the voting booth. My dose of honesty: Obama better get his ducks in a row come Sunday morning. It's game time, and he's kept us waiting far too long.

Chrissy Satterfield gives us her Super Bowl pregame analysis of the Bill O'Reilly vs. Barack O'Bama bout to be aired before the big game. Will O'Reilly be able to deal some big punches, or will he hold off so he isn't disrespectful of the President? Will O'Bama be more prepared for any sports-related questions? Will he have his defenses ready to handle what is thrown at him? Or are we just going to just see another soft-ball contest like O'Bama expects from any of the news networks, even Fox News?

All right, sports fans, get your cheese heads and your terrible towels ready. Super Bowl Sunday is just around the corner, and since I can't stand the Steelers and my Chargers have been out of the running for quite some time, the most exciting thing I'm looking forward to is Bill O'Reilly's interview with the president during the Super Bowl pre-game show.

Finally, Obama will come down from his ivory tower and appear on the nation's No. 1 news network. That's right, No. 1. Fox News might be hated by some, but millions tune in every night. Put that in your pipe, CNN. Now, as most of you probably already know, this will be O'Reilly's second interview with Obama. He first appeared during the election campaign back in 2008. Apparently, when you're running for president it's OK to go on Fox, but after you've won you're too cool.

I'm anxious to see if either Obama or O'Reilly hold back. I know O'Reilly is "looking out for you," but I find it hard to believe that he would interrupt the president like he does most of his guests. I'm sure he'll be respectful, but I hope he puts Obama through the ringer just as he would any other wishy-washy guest. I'm also hopeful that O'Reilly makes Obama answer the questions directly and doesn't allow him to dance around them. The people deserve answers, and O'Reilly understands that.

I think we can rule out any sports questions since Obama's White Sox incident, where he couldn't name his favorite player. I'd blame the kerfuffle on nerves, but it was the easiest question in the book: "Who was your favorite player growing up?" Come on. He should have seen that coming. Hmm, I'm at a baseball game; they'll probably ask me a baseball question.

One question I'm crossing my fingers for is how Obama could say Fox News is "destructive." The president has bashed FNC on more than one occasion, always on the defensive. Obama has felt FNC is basically out to get him – and his little administration, too. First of all, this isn't "The Wizard of Oz," and FNC isn't the Wicked Witch of the West. No one is out to get the president, but if he and his administration screw up, someone should call them on it. He can't expect his mistakes to go unnoticed.

Lefties' envy of Sarah Palin ~ By Chrissy Satterfield

This was the first column I've read by Chrissy Satterfield, who is new to WorldNetDaily.com. I was impressed, and believe you will be too. In this piece, she is talking about Cathy Areu (whom I've never heard of!) and what she said in an interview with Bill O'Reilly, that according to MSNBC, wasn't even supposed to happen. Chrissy came to Palin's defense after Areu had done a Palin-bashing spiel in her interview with Bill on "The Factor."

Chew on this: because Palin made $12 million, are we supposed to forget about the life experiences that led her to this success? If anything, we as women should unite and hold her successes in high esteem. It's not every day a former beauty queen turns governor turns author turns Fox News host. I relate to Palin not because of her financial position or where she shops, but because of her upbringing and moral foundation. Palin was born into a middle-class family, not with a silver spoon in her mouth. She is a self-made woman who now earns a heck of a lot more than she used to. Areu should be giving Palin props, not "call her out" because she's not standing in line at Wal-Mart. If Areu is judging a politician's intelligence and class based on whether or not she shops at Wal-Mart, she's more lost than I thought.

Cathy Areu: media entrepreneur, author, speaker, journalist and apparently sponsored by Wal-Mart. Last week on Bill O'Reilly's "The Factor," Ms. Areu, publisher of Catalina Magazine, threw one heck of a hissy fit. O'Reilly invited her to defend comments she made about former Alaskan Gov. Sarah Palin. Areu said, "Sarah Palin can do no wrong for so many people. I mean, she is the female Larry the Cable Guy minus the class and intelligence." Take a second to let that marinate. With a comment like that, Areu's class and intelligence should be questioned.

First, MSNBC reported that Areu declined the interview with the no-spin-zone commentator, saying, "Areu said thanks but no thanks to Fox. Saying she wanted to appear right here on MSNBC. We don't blame her." Joke's on you, Peter Alexander, because there she was April 16 with her arms in the air hating on someone who has done some pretty courageous things. But enough free advertising for the elitist media.

I should warn you, the following message is brought to you in part by Wal-Mart. Areu told O'Reilly: "[Palin] made $12 million since July. She's not watching her pennies anymore. She's not waiting in the Wal-Mart line like I am. She's eating caviar and drinking champagne." Throughout the entire segment Areu referenced Wal-Mart so many times, I swear even they wanted her to shut up. I'm sorry, I didn't know class and intelligence were essential to shopping at Wal-Mart – tell that to the unruly "welfare check" that runs over my foot every time I step out of the aisle and then doesn't apologize! Bonus, no one wants to wait in line with Areu anyway. She's probably the woman with 60 items in the self-check-out lane who forgot her wallet in the car.

Areu's argument rests on Palin's paycheck rather than her character. Sounds like Areu is pretty shallow and resentful. She says Palin is not relatable because she makes so much money, and that instead of being the "Sarah Sixpack" she portrays, in reality Palin is a "diva." It's Areu who isn't relatable, because 1) no one knows who she is, and 2) no one knows who she is! She's crying foul because no one has heard of her and she wants to get a little face time. Well sorry, Areu, the only face time I can offer is this column, and I don't think you're going to like it.

I need to shoot the elephant in the room by addressing what some have yet to say out loud. If Palin were a man, no one would care about how much money he made. Look at O'Reilly. He came from humble beginnings and has made a shipload of money, yet claims to be "a simple man." Why didn't Areu call him out? The fact that Palin is a double-X chromosome means she's under a microscope when it comes to being a wealthy powerful woman. On top of that, she's a Republican, so the spotlight is on her everywhere she goes. Areu is concerned that Palin's personality doesn't match her bank account. I'm concerned that Areu's personality doesn't match her accomplishments. How has this woman made it so far with the intellect of a liberal lab rat?
