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.”

O’Reilly doesn’t give a shit. He’s not a roofer, a rocker or a carpenter. He’s looking out for you just like Obama, McCain and Graham are.

I remember way back in FR history there was a poll taken on this board with the question asked, in effect, "Who, in your opinion, is the worst (smarmiest, annoying, moronic, irritating, lying, pathetic, marxist, racist, leftist, phony, socialist, idiotic.......I can't remember the exact word but these all apply, so who cares) personality on TV news?"

The names of a lot of well-know, all time lefties were submitted, but at the finish of the poll the leader of the pack and indisputable winner was Geraldo Rivera.

I'll bet a fistful full of Euros that if we had a similar poll now, Bill O'Weasel would win hands down.

He qualifies with so many appellations, including yours, Pan_Yan (i.e., "supremely smug", "condescending", "laughably wrong") and including some of mine, "arrogant", Obama-loving", Obama-excusing", "rude", "dictatorial".......

I so wish someone would start a thread again with a poll on "worst" TV news personalities again.

We could really have more fun with this than if we were sittin' on the porch watching a chicken pull a tractor.

BOR is an idiot, but in fact, TONS of illegals live within 2 miles of his house — and maybe even closer. I am intimately acquainted with his neighborhood, but I do not know what exact street he lives on.

He lives on Long Island’s North Shore, and just outside the borders of the wealthy neighborhoods lay growing enclaves of foreign invaders. The town next to his seems to be existing on two different planes: 2/3 of this neighborhood is upper-middle class/upper class, and the other 1/3 is low/illegal class. My dad lives in that neighborhood. The illegals occupy the smaller homes that used to be owned by the servants formerly employed by the very wealthy. Now they are the gardeners that mow BOR’s lawn twice a week.

Regards,

“Talking Points supports immigration reform, even though I well understand the new law...”

I should have OD’d years ago on the amount of Conservative news and commentary I consume daily. BOR is not a regular part of that diet. When I do stumble on his show: I can’t stand the format, his interviewing style, don’t find him entertaining, I neither learn or get challenged by what is said on his show. Wish Fox would somehow convince Dr. Levin to be on primetime.

If BOR incessantly advocates "Amnesty" you can bet they have something on him.

I liken this to a very MEMORABLE scene from the 1976 Academy Award winning movie "Network".

Network (1976) - Ned Beatty - "The World is a Business"

there was a poll taken on this board with the question asked, in effect, "Who, in your opinion, is the worst ... personality on TV news?"

Bill O'Reilly is #1 because he and most uninformed people actually think a conservative.

Jerry Rivers is #2 because he's more fake and has been for longer than the combined facial work of Cher, Joan Rivers and Nancy Pelosi.

Keith Olbermann gets an honorable mention just because of the story where his internet girlfriend broke up with him and he hid under his desk and wouldn't come out. Someone else had to go do the Sports Center update for him.

BORe is an ash hole and has been since his days on local TV in New York. Why so many people who think THEY are conservative can't see that he is NOT a conservative and keep watching him is beyond me.

I guess there are two options:

1) let the outsiders in and spy on everyone
2) work to keep them out and engage in open conflict

The American way is option 2.

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

INSANITY, IS IT NOT?

Laura Ingraham vs. Bill O’Reilly on Immigration from Last night:
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/20/laura-ingraham-vs-bill-oreilly-on-immigration-bill-dont-buy-into-their-narrative-its-a-phony-fraudulent-narrative/

Ann Coulter vs. Sean Hannity on Immigration from a little over a week ago:
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/06/12/ann-coulter-vs-sean-hannity-on-immigration-youre-like-a-liberal-making-a-silly-argument/

After that debate with Coulter, Hannity changed course on the Immigration Bill. So in a interesting move, Hannity countered Bill’s show by having Steve King and Louie Gohmert on to discuss the Immigration Reform Bill.

Rush, Levin and Hannity should be calling out Rubio. As should Glenn Beck.

Nice take---we need to know how much Third World federales are pocketing from their citizens---illegals sucking at the US public teat.

Non-political Dominican Republic brochures say the nation has no safety nets for its impoverished citizens---and that it depends on the billion per year Dominicans living here illegally send back home.

LYING IN WAIT FOR OUR TAX DOLLARS--- THESE IMPOVERISHED COUNTRIES CURRENTLY HAVE ORGANIZED PRESSURE GROUPS INSIDE THE US (here illegally): Argentina, Belize, Bolivia, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Cuba, Dominica Republic, Ecuador, Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Puerto Rico (stateside)l Salvador, Spain, Uruguay, Venezuela.
