I'm glad that somebody besides me has seen through the hypocrisy of O'Reilly and Hannity. And to be more specific about how O'Reilly, Hannity, and basically all "conservative" celebrities, including Limbaugh, are arguably helping to protect Obama's constitutionally indefensible socialistic policies, please consider the following.
O'Reilly, Hannity and others wrongly ignore Congress's Article I, Section 8 limited powers in federal public policy discussions. Given that Section 8 makes no mention of healthcare, for example, the 10th Amendment clarifies in general that the Constitution's silence about things like healthcare means that healthcare is a state power issue.
Note that activist justices got away with not finding federal Obamacare unconstitutonal because the schools probably don't teach the enumerated constitutional principle of division of federal and state government powers anymore, the division of powers evidenced by Section 8 of Article I, Article V and the 10th Amendment.
OReilly is a big mouth populist. Instinctively he correctly identifies problems, but his solutions are poorly conceived by his instincts to appeal to the ‘folks.’
Hannity has a low wattage mind. His heart is in the right place and he means well, but he just doesn’t have the intellectual depth to be an effective warrior.
Neither are establishment shills, exactly.
Correct, Amendment10.
And for those claiming the “media” “media” “media”, they sure do listen to them. Jumpin the shark
They all have big D.C. bureaus.
O’Reilly has been mocked as Ted Baxter and excoriated as O’Blowhard for practically the entire time I’ve been Freeping.
I’m glad you noticed. Better late than never. O’Reilly puts the blow in bloviation. He’s the Paris Hilton of old white guys, famous merely for being famous, but nobody can quite remember why.
