0bama wasn’t “brave.” He only interviewed with 0’Reilly because the SB was on Fox. If the SB had been on another network somebody else would have done the interview. Why do people miss this?

I fail to see how showing disrespect to Obama is a big deal. The sonovabitch has no self-respect at all and it’s plain for all to see.

I would also say that anybody that has a healthy respect for the Office of President of the United States would instinctively, have a healthy lack of respect for Obama.

IMHO O’Reilly did a better job of pressuring Obama for honest answers than I expected.

And Obama was just as oily, unresponsive and aggressively defensive as I expected.

O’Reilly could only push Obama so far in an effort to get substantive answers. He had to walk a fine line and I think he did a good job of it.

Even so, the Obamabots are foaming at the mouth that O’Reilly didn’t get down on his knees for the King as the other networks do.

“action showed Obama’s courage in the sense that he was willing to consent to an interview with a supposedly hostile reporter from an anti-administration television network.”

Fixed it to reflect republicans going on virtually any tv show.

action showed Republicans courage in the sense that they are willing to consent to interviews with hostile reporters from anti-Republican television networks.

Obama deseres to be “disrespected” BIG TIME.

Foreign policy a mess, economy in a shambles, race relations at an all time low, a health plan that loses jobs, an administration which tells Americans they should enjoy not working, a “president” who ignores the Constitution, a national security struxcture which ignores Muslims and harrasses citizens - often illegally and unconstiutionally.

Yes, the bastards SHOULD be disrespected.

The last American President worthy of ANY respect was ROnald Reagan and after him it was all downhill and we are now at the bottom of the pit with the WORST of the bunch.

Disrespect doesn’t even come close to my feelings towards the Dork-in-Chief, our most famous lying felon.

At least he is proof that anybody, ANYBODY can become president.

We’ve lowered our standards that much.

I aint buying this media fantasy. I believe they have factories that produce these brainwashed, retarded (no disrespect meant to those who were born that way, not manufactured), intentionally and willfully stupid, overpaid, dumba55es. The name of the song should be changed to, Momma don’t let your baby grow up to be no college graduate. Did I miss anything?

Respect is earned, not given as a cheap prize in a box of affirmative action sugar coated breakfast cereal.

Many of the Obama cheering section...

Count Jerry-aldo Riviera, of Foxnews, as one of the major cheerleaders. What an arse-wipe!

We don’t disrespect our presidents. We only respect legal presidents and Obama certainly is not a “LEGAL” president since he is not an American citizen.

A very fair and balanced thought, Munro.

In future, due to your sterling example, I shall endeavour to be more adult, more objective ... more fair and balanced myself ... when I post about this Democrat SOB who is an operative of anti-American forces and whose only brief on earth is to keep the stupider white working class Catholic men voting Democrat; this sycophantic, inane left-wing-intellectual wannabe who would vote for Satan on the Demo ticket, if Jesus Christ ran for Mayor, with the 12 Apostles up for aldermen.

As a patriotic American, I can only pray that our POTUS did not suffer infected gluteal abrasions from the intense osculatory efforts of BORe, whom I suspect carries a rosary with Obama at the end.

When somebody breaks into your home and rapes you, you can fight back or try to survive through submission. The one thing you won’t feel is respect for your attacker.

Sometimes the answer can be so obviously simple. Well done.
