Fox News is celebrating its 15-year anniversary. And as part of the festivities, different anchors are pulling clips from the video vault and giving you a look back. On Tuesday night it was Bill O‘Reilly’s turn. Bill has been in the #1 cable show slot as well as being the #1 Prime Time news show for 12 of those 15 years.
The six-minute-long blast from the past features some of O‘Reilly’s most explosive interviews (Sen. Chris Dodd, Phil Donahue, and Barney Frank), as well as some of his most touching moments from the 90s, early 200s, and today.
The once-vaunted Fox News network has joined the rest of the liberal, establishment media in providing cover and concealment for the origins of Barack Obama. This morning on Peter Boyles’ Denver KHOW talk-radio show, Washington Times columnist Jeff Kuhner spoke about the “birther” story and its widely-known (and feared) underground status within the nation’s capital. Boyles has been a hound on the trail of the cover-up for the past three years. Fox News’ Bill O’Reilly, not to mention Glenn Beck and contributor Ann Coulter, long ago jumped into the Orwellian chorus of them who will not see what is directly in front of their faces.
(It is this ring or untouchable news that just might have been what pushed Beck into the decision to leave Fox News!! Beck has become more and more outspoken, whether indirectly or directly on many “protected subjects” even at Fox News like the true seriousness of the radical Islam issue in America and around the world and the importance of standing with Israel, although the “birther” issue is not a line that even Beck has crossed. (Also see: Why Fox Fired Glenn Beck… Or Perhaps Not?)
Boyles says that Fox has now gone to the astonishing length of scrubbing its website of O’Reilly’s blatant lying two nights ago, during his “talking points” segment, when he claimed that Obama’s possession of a Connecticut Social Security number is perfectly legitimate because Barack Obama, Sr. lived in that state when he was a student at Harvard University. It is a demonstrably impossible scenario. The e-mails that came in from incredulous Fox News viewers who caught on in a heartbeat to O’Reilly’s mendacity have also been removed from the web and from the site. The material has vanished down the Orwellian memory hole. Laura Ingraham is currently sitting in as the show’s substitute host.

The Democrats must continue trying to stifle the story because, if the truth comes out that the President was not Constitutionally eligible to run for his office, it will cause long-term devastation to the leftist political agenda and to its very foundational party structure. The Democrats staked their entire future on this man-without-a-history, who has broken nearly every promise he made during his 2008 campaign. (However, several states (including Oklahoma and Arizona) have already passed and eligibility law which will require all candidates to produce their “official” birth certificates in order to be listed on the ballot in their state.)
The mainstream good-ol’-boy Republicans are turning a blind eye because they believe that it’s a losing political argument. There is no principle within the strategy. It is completely politically shaped and it is without a shred of courage or ethics. They are, not to make a pun here, abjectly ignoring the biggest elephant that has ever walked into the nation’s living room – a President who has a sufficiently dark secret within his history that he is willing to spend millions of dollars in legal fees to keep it from becoming public knowledge. And the Fox News network is now complicit in the dodging of the question: Who is Barack Hussein Obama and from whence came he? (Funny how the Republicans don’t seem to remember that John McCain, son and grandson of “two” four star Admirals and a naval officer (and Vietnam POW himself) in the U.S. Navy and born on a military installation in the Canal Zone in Panama was required to answer questions about where he was born. McCain was not the first person to find himself in these circumstances. The last Arizona Republican to be a presidential nominee, Barry Goldwater, faced the issue. He was born in the Arizona territory in 1909, three years before it became a state. I would think that doing the same with Obama would normally be considered tit for tat. His situation is much more questionable!!)
The result of all of this, whether attributable to O’Reilly’s blind ambitions to continue grabbing Presidential interviews or to the influence of the Saudi Arabian News-Corp buy-in with Rupert Murdoch, is that Bill O’Reilly and Fox have become what he once told us is bad – a mendacious blow-hard television pseudo-reporter who does no more than to run interference for the radical left’s destructive political agenda.
This type of reporting is adding to the popularity of possible presidential candidate Donald Trump, who is at least willing to as the questions…!!!
Trump is requesting any information regarding Obama and others to: Mr. Michael D. Cohen, Executive Vice President and Special Counsel The Trump Organization 725 Fifth Avenue New York, NY 10022
There is a war going on in the United States, that has been fought for approximately 100-years. The war is between the haves and have-nots; the elites and the commoners, the ranchers and the cattle or sheeple… the Progressives and the Patriots. The Progressives who consider themselves the elites… the haves… and the ranchers think that you and I… the patriots, the have-nots, the commoners are the Herd ( the cattle or sheep), are incapable of ruling ourselves, incapable of making our decisions and incapable of ruling ourselves. The elites have been making decisions and rules for us under the radar for years.
Progressive President Woodrow Wilson, “The job of the university is to make a man as unlike his father as possible!… really??
It is no accident that the media and the Progressive Elites in power are singling out, spreading lies and trying to stop the speech of dissenting voices. In fact, it is part of their plan!!
The same people who had blamed Sarah Palin for the massacre at the Tucson Safeway and then taunted her for her "silence" were enraged when she responded.
Last Tuesday, the night before Palin responded, MSNBC's Keith Olbermann mocked Palin's silence throughout his show:
-- "And why is the ever self-promoting Miss Palin so quiet?
-- "And it's quiet, isn't it?"
-- "It's too quiet."
-- "The silence is deafening from the great Northwest."
It was deemed an admission of guilt that she hadn't spoken about the Tucson shooting or denied the accusations that she had inspired the shooter.
The next day, Palin posted a video response, and Keith immediately attacked her for "the worst timed political statement ever." It's almost as if liberals would attack Palin whatever she did.
Olbermann sneered about Palin's use of the phrase "blood libel," scoffing, "This, to Sarah Palin, is analogous to what is happening to her." No, not only happening to her, but to all right-wingers, tea partiers, Republican politicians, and conservative radio and TV hosts -- all of whom have been accused of complicity in murder.
On the day of the Arizona massacre, Arizona Rep. Raul Grijalva blamed the "Palin express." The father of Gabrielle Giffords, one of the victims, blamed "the whole Tea Party." The sheriff of Pima County, Clarence Dupnik, who had failed to lock Loughner up despite repeated arrests and other contacts, blamed "the vitriolic rhetoric that we hear day in and day out from people in the radio business and some people in the TV business." (Dumbnik also said: "We're not convinced that he acted alone.")
A comment on Gawker the day of the attack said: "Palin ... you now have more than just elk blood on your hands." The next day, New York Daily News columnist Michael Daly wrote, with stunning originality: "Palin may have the blood of more than some poor caribou on her hands." (See -- he changed "elk" to "caribou.")
In an especially prissy "Special Comment" the night of the shooting, Olbermann said that if Sarah Palin "does not repudiate her own part in amplifying violence and violent imagery in politics, she must be dismissed from politics." Ditto for Rep. Allen West, ex-candidate Sharron Angle, Rep. Giffords' opponent Jesse Kelly and "the Tea Party leaders." In response to the Arizona shooting, the governor of Rhode Island, Lincoln Chafee, banned state employees from going on talk radio, telling reporters he had been a victim of rhetorical violence himself, citing the title of one of my columns from four years ago: "They Shot the Wrong Lincoln."
In that four-year-old column, I supported Chafee's opponent in the Republican primary by pointing out that "the only person who hasn't figured out that Lincoln Chafee is a Democrat is Lincoln Chafee. As the expression goes, if Chafee switched parties, the average IQ on both sides of the aisle would go up."
My column got results: Chafee is no longer a Republican.
But the column did not produce my secret goal, which the governor has now exposed: That John Wilkes Booth return from the dead to stalk people named "Lincoln."
Yes, the governor of Rhode Island is afraid of 19th-century assassins. Whatever you do, Lincoln, don't look under the bed! After it came out that the Tucson shooter, Jared Loughner, was a liberal pothead who hated Christianity, laughed about aborted babies, never listened to talk radio, hated George Bush and cited "Mein Kampf" as one of his favorite books to annoy his Jewish mother, liberals suspended blaming "political rhetoric" for about two days. Then they went right back to blaming conservatives for the shooting.
The media continue to avoid giving any details and simply announce that Loughner was "anti-government," implying that he's your standard George Will conservative who believes Congress has offended the principles of federalism by encroaching on the states' authority under the Constitution.
In fact, Loughner's "anti-government" beliefs consist of: burning the American flag on video; denouncing our currency with the exclamation, "No! I won't trust in God!"; and wanting to kill cops.
His other big anti-government position is that he believes the government was behind 9/11 -- just like well-known tea partiers Rosie O'Donnell, Obama's "green jobs" czar Van Jones, Rehab habitue Charlie Sheen and left-wing historian Howard Zinn.
If we're looking for a rationale other than "Loughner was nuts," I think the more relevant facts about him are that he was an atheist who detested religion and religious people, made lots of references to satanic New Age "conscience dreaming" (sic) and was involved in the occult.
When a fellow participant on a UFO website wrote a lengthy response to Loughner's question about "what is wrong or right with the current date?" which included the subordinate clause, "a day in Christ is as a thousand years," Loughner fixated on that one line, railing, "I won't listen to that fictitious crap without the author. This is laughable to notice a gospel or writing related to Christ."
Shouldn't we at least bring Bill Maher in for questioning?
