Lis Wiehl's false statements on the "O'Reilly Factor" regarding Obama's birth documentation...

Posted on 10/28/2009 7:02:56 AM PDT by MelSmith

On last night's O'Reilly Factor (Oct 27, 2009), Bill O'Reilly 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.)

Fox News continues to ridicule people who believe that Mr. Obama's birth records -- that are actually on file in Hawaii -- should be made available to independent document experts for inspection and validation.

My question: are they afraid of this story, or do they simply not understand it at all? I do not believe that Fox is part of a conspiracy or a deliberate cover up. Stupid? Yes. Nefarious? No.

I had read (I think on Canada Free Press) some time ago that all the broadcast media were quietly contacted by the Obama people shortly before the election and threatened with the revocation of their FCC licenses.

Please add a link to this info or it is not useful.

We stand the risk of looking like DU making allegations w/o documentation.

Thank you. I had sent this to Glenn Beck and Fox News some time ago to see if they would report on it.

Men, especially the he-man beef eating guys on F.R., keep telling us that they are logical, sane rational beings who aren’t ruled by emotion (unlike us poor benighted women).

Don’t men know, after 36 long years of Roe V Wade, that if you sleep with women they could get pregnant and want an abortion? Why don’t they know that? Why haven’t they learned from it?
