Fox enjoys the rarefied atmosphere and lofty perch of being America’s number one cable TV news outlet, consistently garnering viewer ratings which exceed all their main competitors’ ratings combined. Amidst this laudable list of programming of otherwise perennially pristine political punditry, however, lies a misnomer of ignominy and craven pecuniary pandering; it's on the Bill O’Reilly show. Caution! You are about to enter the ‘No Spin Zone.’”
He then sets about spinning so fast that he makes a dreidel look sluggish. I nevertheless must give credit where credit is due. When on occasion the un-spun facts of a matter happen to align conveniently with his own personal viewpoints on the topic, he is capable of fair and accurate commentary. I admit, I actually have seen him do this a couple times. More often, however, Bildo will present as much of the pure facts on a topic as his oddly tilted mélange of frequently conflicting sensibilities will allow, immediately after which he sets off on a fervent campaign of selling his “take” on the rest of the story; and what a story it tells.
Of all his intellectually dishonest transgressions herewith, and they are legion, the very worst and most insulting is his treatment of America’s Dictator In Chief, Resident of the United States Barrak Obama. If one were to listen to O’Reilly, one would believe that Barrack is “an honest man” who actually has “the best interests of the people” at heart. Notwithstanding that everything about Obama, including ninety percent of everything he says publicly, is a provable lie. Leaving aside the fact that his intention is to subjugate under his unconstitutional Czar-strewn control all of American business, and every aspect of each American’s daily life from waking in the morning to sleeping each night. Putting aside for now Obama’s total rejection of the lawful constraints placed upon the Presidency by our Founding documents, and his intentional deafness to the growing roar of outrage from a majority of the American public over his Marxist bull-in-a-china-shop bullying-thug tactics.
According to O’Reilly, Barrack is “basically a decent guy.” Phew! Thank you Bildo! For a minute there, I was about to become concerned.
I understand O’Reilly’s actual goal here, by the way. It is not to deceive; the deception is just an unfortunate necessity in achieving his real goal: Viwership. Popularity. Profit. That, in and of itself, while disgusting, is not as damning as is the actual result of his dissembling on Obonehead’s perfidy. The tragic result is a large, gullible swath of the trained-seal public not recognizing the totalitarian banana republic Obunga would have them trade their free and mighty America for.
That O’Reilly would play fast and loose with what he knows to be the truth about Oblamebush in pursuit of appealing to the widest possible viewer demographic is the exact same type of cynical selling-out that Obongo himself is guilty of daily. And Bildo knows this. He’s willing to throw us, and our country, under the wheels of the coming Commie machine for nothing more than ratings and profit.
His infatuation with himself nearly rivals Obama’s, not an easy feat. It is what justifies (in his mind) lying about Obunga while feigning being merely ‘even-handed and fair.’ And that makes him worse than dishonest, it makes him dangerous, and a traitor to America.
If O’Reilly were really honest, and had he even a shred of decency, he would start his show with this warning; “Caution! You are about to enter the No Spine Zone.”
No Spine? BOR will just counter by saying it takes a lot of spine to do what he does: play the middle, what he calls the middle, neither the awful “far right” nor the “far left.”
Truth is, his entire spectrum is skewed so far to the left, what he calls the middle is actually left.
GrrrrrrrrrraaaughhhhhhhhhhrrrrrrrRRRRRRRRRRR!

Does BOR think about dirty phone sex when he has Megan on? <?I> He’s such a dupe!
If O'Reilly had any courage or journalistic integrity his Obunga pillow-fluffing routine would make himself nauseous. I can't believe he maintains his ratings on Fox, whose viewership must be predominantly independent conservatives and Republicans.
Just the smug, "Aren't I wonderful" sneer pasted on his puffy, over-the-hill prepster mug makes me want to plant a snappy right cross on either of his chins. And this "Bold Fresh" crap is so maudlin and smarmy it's a wonder the cloying sacharine stench doesn't drive the production crew out of the studio.
Oh, and did I mention, I can't stand the jerkwad?
