An e-mail reminds me of this exchange from a March 6 The O'Reilly Factor (thanks to Martin):
O'REILLY: If you are wrong… and if the United States - and they will, this is going to happen - goes in, liberates Iraq [with] people in the street, American flags, hugging our soldiers… you gonna apologize to George W. Bush?For some, Reality Bites.
GAROFALO: I would be so willing to say, "I'm sorry". I hope to God that I can be made a buffoon of, that people will say, "You were wrong. You were a fatalist". And I will go to the White House on my knees on cut glass and say, "Hey, you and Thomas Friedman were right… I shouldn't have doubted you"…
O'REILLY: Nobody will call you a buffoon because I will protect you.
GAROFALO: Thank you, sir.
