Did I just hear Bill O'Reilly correctly?

Posted on 06/23/2014 6:07:25 PM PDT by MacMattico

He said something along the lines of "I have been at odds with the right wing talk show guys at times, but it's very possible they've been right about President Obama all along." He's suppose to discuss this tomorrow. I know it's a teaser for tomorrow, but he's really never come out and said this w/ his ass-kissing-to- get- interviews with Obama technique of journalism.

A lot of those radio talkers rely on FR for commentary.

Good thing FCC rules would prohibit them from quoting me most days....

I never said he wasn’t an idiot! But he’s got a platform people seem to tune into, so I hope he’s enlightened himself!


Yeah, I know. I was a bit harsh.

Bill has been to nice to Obama for my liking.

Birth documents with incorrect racial terminology and hospital names - and out of sequence numbers tell the truth?

Remind me about the out of sequence numbers, please.

Maybe he’s seen the light.
******************************************
I hope so, but more likely he has seen his falling ratings (and Megan Kelly’s rising ratings). O’Reilly has always defended Obama as “well meaning” but sometimes mistaken. It apparently never entered his swollen head that Obama & crew could actually have ill will and evil intentions toward America and Americans.

Obama’s mask is slipping.

O’Baxter has previously stated that he didn’t think Obama was a commie...just another Dem president who was a little more liberal than the rest. Maybe someone has pounded a little sense into Bill.

You know, I hate to say it, but I always pretty much rejected out of hand the birth certificate issue. But I gotta say that the more I look into just who this Barack guy is the stranger it gets. According to one of his Columbia University Poly Sci classmates, he never even saw BHO. Not once. And neither did anybody else. That's just weird. How could that possibly be that nobody - I mean nobody - remembers BHO at Columbia during the years BHO was majoring in Poly Sci?

Could it be that BHO is just a total fiction? It's hard to believe, even for a dyed-in-the-wool cynic like me.

” I stopped watching that blowhard in 2004 when he said the Swift Boat Vets had no right to be heard.”

I stopped watching fox entirely after the 2012 election when megan Kelly couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she watched Obama pummel Romney.
also, it seemed like rove kept saying, wait there’s more precincts to report, as fox kept calling one state after another for Obama.

I saw O'Reilly's love fest interview with Obama. As Trey Gowdy recently said, "I gotten harder questions at the drive up window."

Limbaugh nailed it (again) by calling him O'Baxter.

Perhaps BHO was a “virtual” student at Columbia-—existing ONLY in computer & paper records while the physical BHO was getting his REAL training elsewhere?

I say we chip in and gift him a free subscription to FR.

BOR is a moron. Everyone except the obots and sycophants saw through Obastard before he even officially received the nomination.

This!

The next two years are going to be very interesting as more and more media start to notice they are way behind the public (right now, they are merely behind along with the sheepiest of the sheople).

This is hard for O’Reilly.. he’s always had a fondness for Obama. That has shown in his comments about him and interviews with him. Even though O’Reilly may have some philosophical differences with Obama, he’s still a fan.

It’s not so much the blue commentary. It’s the blue pony outfit.

But I can’t judge. I think you look smashing in high hooves....

He’s following, not leading.

It’s a good sign, not because it’s him, but because it’s spreading.

Who will be the last journalist to die for a mistake?

How exactly?

No. Maybe his ratings are going down because people are tired of his "ass-kissing-to-get-interviews-with-Obama" BS.

Remember when Fox News first hit it big and O’Reilly (followed by Hannity) were the flagships? I lived in Miami and repeatedly harassed my cable company because they wouldn’t run this great “conservative” channel.

Eventually, I visited my Mom, who got FNC and loved O’Reilly. I was so excited to finally watch this conservative phenomenon!

It took about 30 seconds to see that O’Reilly was a total phony and Hannity was ... well ... a nice guy.

FNC actually hurt conservatism. It (and the later homogenization of talk radio) dumbed down the movement which, long term, was destructive.
