After Phone Call with Rubio, O'Reilly Offers Full-Scale Support of Immigration Bill
Breitbart.com ^ | 6-20-2013 | Breitbart News

Posted on 06/21/2013 8:57:28 AM PDT by servo1969

Thursday night on Fox News’s "The O’Reilly Factor," host Bill O’Reilly came out in full-scale support for the immigration reform bill currently making its way through the Senate.

Despite its border security shortcomings, O’Reilly said, “it looks like the secure border is in reach – at least somewhat.” He continued, “Talking Points supports immigration reform, even though I well understand the new law will be somewhat chaotic…will be a magnet for more people to come here illegally, which is why we need stepped up security around the border.” He concluded, “I hope this bill does become law.”

Multiple Republican senators have stridently fought the notion that the immigration reform bill currently under consideration is sufficient to guarantee any true border security. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said, “We must stop this Gang of 8 immigration bill, which would give amnesty to an estimated 11 million illegal immigrants with no guarantee of a secure border.” Sen. John Cornyn (R-AZ) stated that his amendment, which was rejected, would have guaranteed border security, while the current version does not: “The difference between my amendment and their bill is that their bill promises the sun and the moon when it comes to border security but it has no trigger mechanism.” Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) explained, “I don’t think it will stop the reform waiting on border security. It allows the reforms to go ahead and tries to get border security, but I think they should be dependent upon each other. So, unless that happens, I’m not sure I can support it.”

Bill O’Reilly's net worth? --> $50,000,000

My hunch is that not a single one of the 30 million wetbacks destined to become citizens will ever live within 50 miles of his house.At least partially because they could never afford to do so.

I love Bill O’Reilly threads. Very few people on the left stir up the white hot vitriol on FR as Bill. We've seen, RINO’s, sellouts, weasels, traitors trolls and DC swamp fever victims. But few can rival Bill for being supremely smug, condescending and laughably wrong all at the same time.

Laura Ingraham did a fine job explaining to BOR why this bill is a fiasco. He didn’t get it.

It wasn't that the pompus ass didn't get it, it was he wouldn't listen to a word she said. O'Reilly is in the tank. Ingraham asked him 2 or 3 times about the CBO numbers of dropping wages and rising unemployment. He wouldn't answer. Because he has no answer. That or he likes his little illegal mexican maids that do what he wants out of fear of deportation. Then he interviews a pillar of Constitutional reverence...Jeff Flake. Ole Bill has jumped the shark.

The GOP are total IDIOTS. Here he is again, President 0bama growing his Democrat voter base with millions of freshly minted illegals turned Democrat voters.. WHY DON'T THE REPUBLICANS SEE THIS SCAM FOR WHAT IT IS? JERKS.

We don't want 'immigration reform'. We want IRS reform. We want DOJ reform. We want ANSWERS to why 0bama abandoned Americans to die in Benghazi. We want gov't profiling and intimidation of conservatives for their beliefs to STOP. We want a return to the rule of law and NOT the rule of a Dictator!

O’Reilly is no libertarian-he acts like a rino-loves big brother as long as it restricts something he doesn’t approve of, and screw everyone else’s rights-And you’re right-he has enough skeletons in his closet to supply a small medical school...

I have always maintained that the hypocrisy in/of the illegal immigrant debate is shown by the fact that the USA does not put the squeeze on Mexico to really seriously stop their citizens from violating national borders. It is known that Mexico rolls in the money from the illegals. Of course a driving force for all this Mexican take-away is NAFTA which was a Bush favorite. It is good to have found a mate from another nation but it is not good for the USA when the other nation is given opportunities that persons in the USA are deprived of.

O'Reilly is in the tank.

I think all of FOX is in the tank. Hannity had Rubio on Wednesday and did not call him out on all the dancing he was doing. Michelle Malkin followed Rubio and Hannity began telling her how good the immigration bill was going to be according to Rubio.

What Michelle did when he started in was classic. She stuck her hand in the air and began making motions like a yacking duck, and put Hannity in his place. Hannity dropped his praise of Rubio's promises and claimed to agree with Michelle.

Rush, Levin and Hannity all refuse to call Rubio the liar he is, though they have no trouble calling Holder one.

That sounds like, "I have a fatal infection. After talking with Dr. Rubio, I have decided to do nothing about that, because otherwise, he won't give me a different treatment, which allowed my infection in 1986. The 1986 treatment will cause future infections, but also reduce their severity (somewhat). Also I found out that if Dr. Rubio treats my current illness, Dr. Obama will revoke his medical license."

The GOP needs to pass amnesty to create a leftist supermajority, to prevent losing the next election, they say.

I think that Ted Baxter would’ve been sharp enough to see that this amnesty bill is one of the most dangerous to ever come along...I guess O’Reilly isn’t.

The O brain and mouth is disconnected. He has brain freeze and lacks the ability to listen while his overactive mouth spits shi!. There, I said it.

Even if this abominable bill actually ensures border control, and history tells us it won't, putting 11 to 20 million illegal aliens (and their relatives) on the path to citizenship will shortly give the Demorats control of both houses of congress, the presidency, and the Supreme Court. Once that happens the 'rats can jettison that pesky constitution and move on to__________.

I cannot abide Obama anymore. I never turn on my TV, not even to FOX. The quiet is so refreshing and my BP is much better.

Every time I hear Rubio’s voice it reminds me of Hayden Christensen’s awful performance as Anakin Skywalker. Come to think of it, the only thing that could have made the Star Wars prequels worse would be if Anakin was trying to push comprehensive immigration reform.
