Accuses KS Governor of protecting Tiller
New York City, NY - May 31, 2007 - Fox News host Bill O'Reilly rebounded from a six-month silence to issue a scathing segment on the notorious late-term abortionist George R. Tiller that aired the evening of May 30. During the segment, O'Reilly blasted Tiller for "executing fetuses" for "vague medical reasons."
He was equally critical of Kansas Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, who vetoed a bill that would have required Tiller to provide specific medical reasons for abortions after 21 weeks of pregnancy.
"Incredibly, Gov. Sebelius is protecting Tiller," O'Reilly said during his broadcast. "And Gov. Sebelius is allowing him to continue the slaughter. How the governor sleeps at night is beyond me."
O'Reilly produced a document showing that Tiller has a lengthy history of campaign contributions to Sebelius going back to 1994.
O'Reilly's guest was Rep. Ben Hodge, who resigned a committee post in protest of the lack of action by Speaker Melvin Neufeld to bring Tiller to justice.
When asked by O'Reilly if this was a disgrace upon everyone who lives in Kansas, Rep. Hodge responded, "Yes, I think it is. I think at times in American history there will be times when branches of government fail the people and I think this is one of those times."
"O'Reilly's remarks underscore what our own research and work has revealed about the web of corruption that surrounds and protects Tiller," said Operation Rescue President Troy Newman, who worked behind the scenes with Kansas legislators in an attempt to bring Tiller to justice.
"Because women come from every state to abort late-term babies at Tiller's Wichita abortion mill, this is a national problem. We pray that the national exposure O'Reilly brings to this scandal will force the people of Kansas to begin taking meaningful action to clean up governmental corruption and bring Tiller to a court where he can be held accountable under the law as soon as possible," said Newman.

Oh, and you have some evidence for this allegation that he changes his position on important issues based on advertiser dollars, right?
Honestly I suspect it’s just a lack of principles.
I didn’t ask why you think he does what you accused him of, I asked you for some evidence to back up your accusation. Got any?
Our last Gov. was Bill Graves, Republican, also a Tiller recipient. Graves had hoped to advance to U.S. Senate but was outfoxed, then hoped to an appointment by Bush (who, as candidate, privately informed him that he need not count on changing his day job.)
Then there are many in the KS House and Senate, local Mayors, KS Municipal Judges, etc., etc., etc.
Nope. I just think he lacks principles he thinks are so important.
Feel better little lady?
Area KS RINOs, dims and most of all Tiller, Naral, Planned Parenthood, NOW and Emily’s List!
But I think he's out of touch....and WAY off base again with his illegal alien stance.
You and I have been around here together long enough to know I don’t get into womanly little snits. It makes conservatives look bad when we make charges without evidence. If you think it’s arrogant of me to think that’s out of line, you’re the one with the problem and you should probably go take an aspirin or something.
Bill O’ isn’t perfect, but I’m glad he’s broadcasting.
This story makes me sick.
Bumping
It truly sickens me.
But the emergence of the RINOs as a third party in Kansas guarantees DNC stranglehold on the governorship.
What a typical dead soul governor, protecting a serial killer who sends campaign money to her.

The illegals issue is highly volatile. I think I’m in disagreement with about 99.99% of most people I know. So I won’t fault O’Reilly on that one. But in this situation, as with the child molesters, he has been right on for the most part. My only disagreement comes with the punishment for molesters. I won’t be satisfied until all states mandate the death sentence for these lowlifes. But don’t get me started on that one.
Why don’t you enlighten us all on this subject?

Why don’t you do a search on Sebelius , Neufeld and Tiller .. the subject is buying political favors in KS ... I think most Freepers know all about how that works... in addition you can search FR for anything having to do with new or expanded medical businesses related to ESC research in that state..
