Fox News is not allowed to be birther friendly.

It's a "business decision" that Foxie honcho Rupert Murdoch has made and has made perfectly clear to his minions: don't mention the "birther" issue over the air in any way but painting the "birthers" negatively, or else you will lose your job or even worse. Murdoch is fearful that his networks will be kicked off the air by O's FCC if his personnel gave credibility to the "birther" movement.

This isn't my original theory; it's been expounded by Joe Farrah of WND for more than a year now.

O'Reilly probably gets a large bonus if he disparages birthers.

Yesterday was not not the first time he's disparaged "birthers." It's not so much he gets a large bonus as a quid pro quo, it's that more generally he's playing a game of kissing his employer's ass, which in the long run is better for his bank account - and perhaps his physical safety as well.

If a person or an organization can not be trusted to defend the Constitution, then they can NOT be trusted!

I don’t trust Fox or any of its minions. I don’t trust most of talk radio either. This is includes Rush Limbaugh because for 2 1/2 years he treated the Constitution like a JOKE and gave less than a puny 5 minutes to the topic.

It's why I've largely stopped watching BOR. Perhaps 10 minutes total in the last 12 months.

The guy is clearly hiding under his desk on this issue. He knows FULL well there is a there, there.

Recently, nearly 3/4's of Republicans polled said they either believe Barry wasn't born here or they're not sure.

Hello BOR? That's clearly significant. And the issue has gained momentum since the summer of 2008. It's not going away no matter how much BOR ridicules.

Furthermore, that doesn't even mention that Barry was a born British subject....meaning regardless of place of birth, he never was nor could be a natural born Citizen.

BOR's a BLOVIATING blowhard!
