Several high-profile conservative pundits have voiced their support of Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson in the wake of his suspension from the A&E show following his ant-gay remarks to GQ magazine, but they’re now missing one of their loudest voices.
On Thursday, O’Reilly Factor host Bill O’Reilly told his guest Laura Ingraham he thought Robertson’s remarks were “a mistake.”
“Mr. Robertson, I believe, made a mistake in the condemnation line,” O’Reilly said, referring to Robertson’s assertion that homosexuals and other such sinners “will not inherit the kingdom of God.”
“It’s not about the Bible or believing or not believing in the Bible,” O’Reilly went on. “It’s singling out to that group, it could be any group, and saying to them hey, you’re not worthy in the eyes of God, in the eyes of the Lord, because of who you are.”

Conservative? You’ve got to be kidding.
A) He mentioned several sins, so nobody was singled out, and the question was specifically about that topic.
B) You don’t like the “won’t inherit the kingdom of God” part, take that up with the Bible, fool.
A mistake, you mean like confusing a falafel for a loofah?
BOR occasionally takes a conservative position, but he is really the John McCain of TV pundits.
I would not call BOR a conservative by any stretch of the imagination.
If BOR is conservative, then I’m next in line to be King of England!
he is not a fellow conservative
Blowhard O’Blowhard is a Liberal DemocRat.
didn’t the “National Post” at one point have a reputation as a good paper? That’s at least 2 piles of excrement I have seen here today
Het Billy Boy, Stuff a Rag in it! And that goes for your Amnesty support too!
Real Conservatives do not watch Bill O’Reilly
C’mon folks...stop worshiping and believing Fox News
No Bill,a mistake would be watching your show for more than one minute. Bill is arrogance on parade.
Bill is a NOOYAWKER, can’t expect much else!
Agreed.
Bill O'Reilly has never, really, been a conservative.
I don't understand his popularity.
Hope his ratings tank and a true conservative gets his time slot.
Bill O’Reilly (that acronymn BOR is great, but you left off the terminal “E”) is no conservative and a bloviating legend in his own mind.
Personally I never gave a rat’s @$$ what O’Reilly said, thought or did.
God Bless Phil Robertson.
“It’s not about the Bible or believing or not believing in the Bible,” O’Reilly went on. “It’s singling out to that group, it could be any group, and saying to them hey, you’re not worthy in the eyes of God, in the eyes of the Lord, because of who you are.”
None of us are worthy, Bill. The miracle of Christ is that God has made those who turn from their sin to Christ worthy. Those who cling to sin have only themselves to blame for their fate before God.
God wants people to turn from sin. He has never been about accommodating them in it. Neither should we. Mistake? Hardly.
BOR is a bit full of himself, and quite the pompous ass.
Bor is more comfortable with other elites like the homosexual mediots, who control so much of the mediaganda.
Wrong Bill-
They’re not condemned for who they are, but rather who they CHOOSE to be.
With those choices come consequences, as laid out in the Bible by GOD not Phil Robertson
He is an expert on the Bible. He wrote several books on it!
The man makes me ill. He also cut up a video of Phil Robertson to back his points. BOR is a pathetic joke.
