The Clown Prince Of Journalism
Alan Levy, Gun Owner | 2/26/14 | Alan Levy, Gun Owner

Posted on 02/26/2014 6:06:00 PM PST by Absolutely Nobama

Recently, the Clown Prince of Journalism, Bill O'Reilly, called Barack Hussein Oblahblah a "patriot".

I kid you not. From the good folks at Breitbart:

***

“ 'I said on Kimmel that both President Bush the younger and Barack Obama are patriots because they served their country,' O’Reilly said. 'You may not agree with them, alright? But I don't think you say they're not patriots unless you have, you know, evidence that is just through the roof. I think almost every president that's ever served this nation has been a patriot, including Richard Nixon.' "

http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-TV/2014/02/21/OReilly-Doubles-Down-on-Obama-Is-a-Patriot-Claim-Says-Nixon-a-Patriot-as-Well

***

Now of course, this is like shooting paralyzed fish in a barrel with a big ol' "assault weapon" that makes liberals wet themselves. There are countless examples of Obama's lack of patriotism, ranging from his complete and total disregard for the Constitution and the founding of our nation to trying to start World War III in Syria and be on al-Qaeda's side. Basically, there isn't a crime against the Constitution and American culture that Barry the Horrible hasn't committed and is willing to commit.

But you already know all of that. I'm willing to bet my last, worthless, fiat dollar that you, Dear Reader, are a Conservative and therefore use your head for more than a hat rack. There's no reason to rehash all of Obama's scandals, plots, and crimes. So to keep it interesting, I've decided to introduce exhibit 100 trillion-A (just to throw a random number out there) of why Obama is a commie turd. (Call him whatever you want, but don't you dare call him the new "m-word" or "s-word". Believe me, the last thing you want is the Internal Revenue Stasi breathing down your neck. Before long, I'm sure Ted Nugent will be paying dearly for his thoughtcrime.)

From The Hill, and also heard on the 2/25/14 Mark Levin Show:

***

"The Obama administration proposed Tuesday to ban advertisements for unhealthy food in the country’s schools, targeting a $150 million per year industry that is nonetheless backing the plan.

Draft regulations unveiled Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Agriculture reflect the latest phase of first lady Michelle Obama’s campaign to combat a national childhood obesity crisis.'Our classrooms should be healthy places where kids are not bombarded with ads for junk food,' Obama said Tuesday during an event at the White House.

She described the new guidelines as 'part of a broader effort to inspire companies to rethink how they market food to kids in general'....The rule proposed Tuesday would prohibit ads at schools on everything from vending machines to scoreboards for any food that can’t be sold on campuses. The action follows the development of new school nutritional standards that are set to take effect in July."

http://thehill.com/blogs/regwatch/pending-regs/199232-new-regs-would-outlaw-junk-food-ads-in-schools#ixzz2uOTOKkMZ

***

This is an outrage on so many levels I don't even know where to begin. This doesn't just shred the Constitution, it reduces it toilet paper in a Turkish prison. It violates the First Amendment, it unconstitutionally seizes even more power from local school boards, and to top it all off, it's another pseudo-law being belched from the nameless, faceless, unelected federal bureaucracy.

How in the hell is this even remotely patriotism?

There will be some who say that this is no big deal, it's protecting children, we have bigger fish to fry, and all the rest of the hemming and hawing. But it's that attitude that has brought us to edge of complete political, economic, and social disaster. Every violation of the Constitution, whether it's the NSA reading your emails or some dweeb from the Ag Department telling Johnny he can't sell candy bars to support his high school football team (assuming it's not outlawed, but I digress), a little more of our liberty, our precious liberty, dies.

Is that enough proof for you, Billy? I really wish you'd stop the spin. I'm getting nauseous.

But...but...but...Bill’s always looking out for “the folks”. Hmmm...that crutch phrase of Ted Baxter’s reminds me of certain Austrian of the 20th Century who was very völkisch.

Bill’s either nuts or he’s gone senile

perhaps he is ..in that demented haze..mistakenly equating Pomp and Circumstance with patriotism?

Yes, yes, and yes.

Roger Ailes has lost some zing on his fastball.

I think almost every president that’s ever served this nation has been a patriot, including Richard Nixon.’ “

It is this kind of pandering that turns me off to Bo’ring. Richard Nixon was one of the better presidents of the last century. O’Reilly knows that he can and must play that game to stay in favor with Barack and the press Gods.

My big complaint with Nixon was his creation of the EPA. That being said,anything Nixon did pales in comparison to all of Obama’s crimes against the Republic.

“B’oring”, eh? I may have to steal that, FRiend!

[”I think almost every president that's ever served this nation has been a patriot, including Richard Nixon.”]

Nixon served in the Navy in the South Pacific during World War II where he met Jack Kennedy.

During Vietnam O’Reilly stayed in college until his student deferment expired then took a job as a teacher giving him an occupational deferment. When Nixon created the “All Volunteer Army” and ended the draft O’Reilly quit his teaching job and became a broadcaster.

You certainly can’t take that away from Nixon, or Kennedy for that matter.

Y’know, it’s funny and a bit off topic, but would JFK be elected by today’s Dhimmicrats? Why is that never mentioned?

It's long been unbearable for me and Free Republic is my primary source for fact-based news and informed, intelligent opinion. I'm among the minority on Free Republic that can't stand Greta Van Susteren. She and her husband, John Coale, are major contributors to the anti-Christian cult of Scientology. To her fans here, sorry, but I can't separate her nightly performance art on Fox from her bizarre "faith" in Xenu, L. Ron Hubbard and other anti-Biblical claptrap. Like John Travolta, Tom Cruise and Kirstie Alley, Van Susteren does have good acting skills but her adherence to that nonsense is counter to the pro-God principles that are the foundation of America.

You read that right. Billy seems to believe that being a community organizer is the same thing lugging around a full ALICE pack all over Trashcanistan at zero dark in the morning.

Sometimes, I like to pretend that I’ve been transported to an alternate reality. It makes the pain of watching my beloved country collapse a little more bearable.

Say what you want about Bush, but at least he actually served his country. That’s a heck of a lot more than Barry can say.

I have to wonder if Bill Clinton, who had a pro-business and pro-death penalty stance in Arkansas could be elected today.

For the most part, I've stopped watching after they fired Beck. (I couldn't care less what the official story is.)

” It makes the pain of watching my beloved country collapse a little more bearable.”


Amen ! I’m at the end of my life and this has been tough to watch.

Kaput! Everything of value-—gone.

My grandkids will never know what freedom means.

You can’t even begin to compare obozo to Nixon. Nixon was intelligent and I believe loved America for what it was, not what he wanted to change it to. Obozo is presented as intelligent but where is the proof?, hell he can’t even put together a coherent sentence without it being scrolled across a teleprompter first. Look back at the Nixon/Kennedy debate did you see either of them with notes or prompters?

That’s a good point. During the bad ‘ol days of the 2008 Popularity Contest, the freaks at the Daily Kos and Moveon.dork were relentless in their attacks against the allegedly moderate Democratic Leadership Council and Bill and Hitlery Caligula.
