"TERRIBLE & IMMORAL"

O'Reilly's guest, U.S. Naval War College Professor Tom Nichols, Ph.D., a national security expert, also refuted the host's plan, calling it a "terrible," "immoral" idea. Nichols explained that "it is a morally corrosive idea to try to outsource our national security"


UPDATE: O'Reilly doubled down on his proposal on the September 23 edition of CBS News' CBS This Morning, claiming such a mercenary force would "take the politics out of it." He predicted, "It's going to happen. This anti-terror army is going to happen."

1. Which mercenary-corps should get the no-bid-contracts?

Maybe O'Reilly is just jealous of France's Foreign Legion. As a french general once said: "When something goes wrong, at least it's not frenchmen in the coffins."

2. hey moron oreally - who's going to control the mercenary group

3. Bigger question ...

Who is going to control this "elite fighting force" when they practice their trade on U.S. soil? Remember Blackwater (and other mercenary forces) operating in NOLA during Katrina?

4. Someone jury-rigging a van out of rubber bands, paper clips and cardboard

7. Let's also remind them that Blackwater/XE is a republican creation.

We're not the ones creating a for profit mercenary army here, they are.

6. These are the same idiots that cheerleaded the Iraq War the first and second times.

Sorry O'Reilly, no take backs on the third sequel.
