Is Bill O'Reilly misinformed or in the tank? Fair and balanced my a**! Why is Obama is spending over $1mil to hide a birth certificate worth less than 20 bucks?
Get the real skinny at:
Bill O'Reilly was spinning so fast last night (4/15/10) it made me dizzy. Bill was trying to prove Obama was born in the U.S. and purposely neglecting the 'natural born citizen' issue that is the real issue. Bill has been punked by two newspaper birth announcements that are automatically generated after a COLB is issued. Reporters don't investigate each birth---they print what they're given by the health authorities. If they're given a phony COLB they'll print a phony birth announcement.
O'Reilly or his staff should be aware that regardless of where Obama was born, the real 'birther' issue is that he does not qualify as a 'natural born citizen'. The birth certificate has never been the whole story; if Bill doesn't know it, the nuns didn't teach him how to read. This isn't the first time Bill has skewed the news.
On the Oct 27, 2009 O'Reilly Factor, Bill sat stupidly while Lis Wiehl made several conspicuously false statements regarding the facts related to Obama's birth documentation. Referring to the 'birthers', Ms. Wiehl stated that "It's this whole movement that says that Obama was elected from a bad, unconstitutional point of view because he was not born in the United States. That's been litigated. Congress investigated. His birth document from Hawaii was shown."
First, regarding "That's been litigated" this case has never actually been heard in open court (because the plaintiffs have been denied standing).
Second, regarding "Congress investigated." Does anyone know to what she is referring? Or as that a total fabrication? Does she really think that Barney Frank and Harry Reid have "investigated" this?
Third, regarding "His birth document from Hawaii was shown", Ms. Wiehl fails to mention that what has been shown is purported to be a bona fide copy of Mr. Obama's birth documentation. Furthermore, the validity of that copy is disputed for a number of reasons. (And they never mention the fact that Hawaii issues two types of birth documentation, and that there is an interesting dispute as to which type of birth documentation Mr. Obama has.)
O'Reilly is hiding under his desk and refuses to give the opposing point of view time to respond. A fair and balanced newscast would allow Lt. Col. Lakin's spokesman time to respond. The colonel has done more for this country in one year than O'Reilly will ever do---his spokesperson deserves to be heard.

It’s a Harvard thing.
“KHOW radio’s Boyles, though, is clearly reveling albeit gravely in what he calls the “showdown” and the “reckoning” that he believes history may well soon deliver to force the president to reveal the supposed missing citizenship documents and the alleged coverup.
“This isn’t about just the birth certificate,” he told listeners, callers and the large number of people who had apparently sent emails to the station blasting Lakin for disobeying orders in a time of war.
“The birth certificate is only one of so many documents. It’s a series of documents, a series of certifications that have been blocked, hidden… medical records, baptism, college and school records, passports, adoption papers– these are all hidden away,” said Boyles.”
BOR’s a pinhead.
This is not a new observation. Bill O. has been weak on Obama since DAY ONE!!! He never comes down on him or calls him what he is. He plays it very neutral and even protects Obama at times which is sad. I gave up on him a long time ago. He sounds like many of the Washington Congress-critters who will not take anything but a mushy, weak stance against Obama’s agenda and policies.
I won’t even listen to FOX until Hannity comes on -— THEN you get the facts and the serious talk.

I suspect O’Reilly follows wherever the money and influence lead. To believe he would stand by principles is to be bamboozled.
Never really was a big fan of O’Reilly as I always viewed him as a pompous ass. Never liked how he cut off his guests mid sentence. He lost me forever when he had the founder of the OathKeepers on and Bill said he was ok with 2nd Amendment infringements in a state of emergency like Katrina. He can go pound sand.
BOR wants the same deal GE got. In the tank...
BOR is scum.
Try that when applying for a passport.
Gretta has a better political show than Bill...
He is correct just once a day.
oreilly cares about his ratings, image and bank account. he doesnt give a damn about the country
I think OReilly( who I watch) wants to get Obama on the Factor again.
Did you see how happy he was when Obama told someone he LOVED the Factor?
It’s all ego. I think Oreilly believes Obama is a weasal.
Perhaps it’s just O’Reilly’s inner pervert coming out, again. Something about his apparent or alleged need to talk dirty to somebody.
He’s in the tank.
I have listened to less than one minute of BOR in the past two years (I will listen to dennis miller if I see he’s on) and it happened to be a few weeks ago, just in time to hear BOR say “O is not a socialist”.
Grrrr!!
For the life of me, I can’t understand how Beck and Ingraham can stand to hang out with BOR.
Who listens to BOR and the left?
He’s an intelligent guy, IMO.
But to appeal to the MOST audience and remain #1, he can’t afford to have new viewers see him constantly siding with the Right.
But I do think some of the crap he comes out with...he doesn’t believe himself....especially trying to leave the door open for interviews with Obama and other VIPs.
