"Obama is a very good actor. He knows how to play it. And he is very adept at creating this 'Obama' - this character who is there whenever the world needs something," he said.

I heard an excerpt of his speech on Levin's show.

It wasn't middle-of-the-road RINO platitudes. He really took Obama to the shed.

JV is excellent and I'm glad he's on our side.

I hope Voight has a nest egg, he is never going to work in Hollyweird again.

Didn’t the car George bought turn out to be previously owned by a DIFFERENT Jon Voight, though? I think it was “John (with an “h”) and not “Jon.” LOL. Funny episode.

I’m loving Jon Voight. Somebody get him a talk show NOW! He just out and says it and it needs to be said.

His speech was soooooooo refreshing. Man, the truth cuts like a knife.

John Voight is a good guy.

As for Zer0, IMO he’s a good script reader and not a good actor.

He’s almost a worse extemporaneous speaker than George W. Bush.

Voight was on BOR's show last night. I was fascinated by what I was viewing.

First, it was apparant from the first moment they didn't like each other. You could tell from the tensed-up, squared-off posture of each.

Voight went into his well-reasoned talking points. As usual, O'Reilly was covering for Obama which he does almost every night in some major or minor matter.

O'Reilly likes to be in control, and in his arrogant manner he allowed Voight enough speaking time but was pooh-poohing what he was saying.

The in one of O'R's slickest and nastiest pre-meditated tricks ever, out of thin air he tried to tie Jon to Rush Limbaugh in the same way he would try to tie Voight in with Adolf Hitler.

What did Jon do throughout this very cold interview? He held a steady gaze on O'Reilly's face throughout. He was not intimidated.

He remained respectful, but intelligently disagreed with most of what O'R was spewing.

At the end, O'Reilly came up with a closing minute of crap.....and though the segment was supposed to be over, Voight got in the last word by saying "I disagree" as the music was playing.

Final score: Jon Voight, perfect 10. Bill O'Bama, minus 10.

I wish everyone could have seen this segment.

Looks like ‘Happy Meal’ abs to me.

He’s been this outspoken since the ‘08 campaign season. FNC had him on a number of times, and he was just as aggressive against Obama back then.

Yet he continues to work.
