BOR needs to eat that crow in the future with the feathers still on & dry as dust withou any liquid to make it go down. Slightly past it’s ‘expire date’ will also be called for.

The info about Barry’s birth will surface sooner or later.

BOR better hope he is no longer around to have to eat his words.

Whether he believes it or not I LOVE him keeping it in the news every week

He may be mentioning it on his show but that is NOT keeping it in the news. The only news story on this is how Lou Dobbs scared Limbaugh out of this issue.

The fair thing to do in Wisconsin would be to have a referendum. Let the folks vote on union power.””””

Walker ran on this issue as well as other cost cutting items.

The voters have already made their choice.

I love it when he takes on the radicals.

BILL O’REILLY, HOST: Now for the top story tonight. What is going on at the University of South Florida, a state-funded institution? Suspected terrorist Ramadan Abdullah Shallah actually taught classes there. He is now one of the leaders of the Palestinian Islamic jihad.

And the man who brought Shallah to the United States joins us now from Tampa. Dr. Sami Al-Arian is an associate professor of computer engineering at the University of South Florida.

All right. What say you, Professor? This guy is now a big shot in the Islamic jihad, they’re taking credit for all kinds of terrorist activity, and you know him pretty well. Got an explanation here?

SAMI AL-ARIAN, PH.D., UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH FLORIDA PROFESSOR: Well, I mean, when he came here, he came as a volunteer. He was working in an intellectual think tank, and he taught at the university, and then he left. He said that his father was sick and he was going back to the occupied territories, and then six months later, we were shocked like everyone else in the world in which he became the leader of the jihad movement.

Palestinian Professor Put on Paid Leave After O’Reilly Appearance O’REILLY: You were shocked! You were — you couldn’t understand it. He never told you that his views — political views were that extreme. You were just taken by surprise?

AL-ARIAN: Everyone was. Everyone who knew him here at the University of South Florida, everyone who knew him personally was extremely surprised.

O’REILLY: All right. You knew a man named Tariq Hamdi, correct? You know Tariq?

AL-ARIAN: Mr. Hamdi. Yeah.

O’REILLY: Yeah. You know him. Were you surprised that he set up an interview with ABC News with Usama bin Laden? Does that surprise you?

AL-ARIAN: I didn’t know about that. I mean, Mr. Tariq Hamdi left us about eight, nine years ago. He became a journalist, and I’m not sure what kind of connections he has with whatever journalists are...

O’REILLY: OK. Were you surprised that he was implicated in the embassy bombings in Africa?

AL-ARIAN: Well, I understand he was never implicated.

O’REILLY: Yes, he was.

AL-ARIAN: My understanding is that the FBI has talked to him, they give him security clearance, and if the FBI gives someone security clearance, he must not be implicated.

O’REILLY: No. Right now, he’s on the list of suspected terrorists. Did you know that?

AL-ARIAN: No. I’m not aware of that.

O’REILLY: All right. Does that surprise you?

AL-ARIAN: It — I’ll be — I’ll be shocked because this — this guy has an American citizenship, he was given security clearance by the FBI. I can’t imagine that he is...

O’REILLY: OK, but he is. So there’s another shocker. So that’s three.

In — in 1988, you did a little speaking engagement in Cleveland, and you were quoted as saying, “Jihad is our path. Victory to Islam. Death to Israel. Revolution. Revolution until victory. Rolling to Jerusalem.” Did you say that?

AL-ARIAN: Let me just put it into context. When resident Bush talked about crusade, we understand what he meant here. The Muslim world thought he is going to carry a cross and go invade the Muslim world and turn them into Christians. We have to understand the context. When you say “Death to Israel,” you mean death to occupation, death to apartheid, death to oppression, death to...

O’REILLY: But not death to any human being?

AL-ARIAN: No, absolutely not. Absolutely not.

O’REILLY: No.

AL-ARIAN: Absolutely not.

O’REILLY: All right. So now what we have here is you saying death to Israel. You’re bringing a guy over here who gets paid by the good citizens of Florida and then goes back and becomes one of the lieutenants or generals of the Islamic jihad, but you don’t know nothing about it. Another guy sets up an interview with Osama bin Laden for ABC, and you don know anything about that.

You know, Doctor, it looks to me like there’s something wrong down there at the University of South Florida. Am I getting — am I getting the wrong impression here?

AL-ARIAN: You’re getting completely wrong impression because you can pick and choose and interpret it, you know, different ways.

The fact of the matter is we have been involved in intellectual-type activity. We brought dozens of people. All of them are intellectual type. You’re going to get the apple — a bad apple or two, but that — if you focus on them, you get one conclusion.

The fact of the matter is that we’ve been investigated by the FBI for many years...

O’REILLY: Correct.

AL-ARIAN: ...and there has been no wrongdoing whatsoever even suggested.

O’REILLY: Well, I don’t know about that. Your — your brother-in-law is going to be deported right now. I mean, it looks like he’s going to get kicked out of the country, correct?

AL-ARIAN: It has nothing to do with this. His deportation...

O’REILLY: It doesn’t have anything to do with it? Your brother-in-law is going to get kicked out of the country and it doesn’t have anything to do with it?

AL-ARIAN: No. Absolutely not.

O’REILLY: Does that come as a shock to you that he’s going to get kicked out of the country?

AL-ARIAN: It was absolutely. As a Palestinian refugee, he lost his visa. He — his status was not adjusted. It has nothing to do with all that. His deportation had to do with the denial of asylum. It has nothing to do with any of the stuff we’re talking about.

O’REILLY: Yeah. Well, Doctor, you know, with all due respect — I appreciate you coming on the program, but if I was the CIA, I’d follow you wherever you went. I’d follow you 24 hours...

AL-ARIAN: Well, you don’t know me. You don’t know me. You do not...

O’REILLY: That doesn’t matter. With all of this circumstantial evidence...

AL-ARIAN: If you don’t know me, you can’t judge me by...

O’REILLY: I’m not judging you.

AL-ARIAN: ... simply...

O’REILLY: I’m just saying...

AL-ARIAN: That’s exactly what you’re saying.

O’REILLY: I’m saying I’d be your shadow, Doctor.

AL-ARIAN: We’ve been — we’ve been looked at, and a judge — a judge has said that we are not a threat to national security.

O’REILLY: All right.

AL-ARIAN: Even the government itself said we’re not.

O’REILLY: OK. All right, Doctor. I’d still shadow you. I’d go to Denny’s with you, and I’d go everywhere you went. We appreciate you coming on.

I’ve got the solution to your anxiety right here: don’t waste your time watching and listening to this gas-bag.

Then you don't agree with his view below?

-----------------------------

O'Reilly: The truth is that far-left extremists are unleashed, and are going for the gold. Their code words are "social justice" and "shared sacrifice." "Social justice" means empowering the government to seize the assets of affluent Americans and redistribute them to the less well off. "Shared sacrifice" means punitive taxation on high-wage earners and corporations. Now, that of course is socialism.

Why doesn’t O really just go on over to the dark side and get it over with!! A classic RINO obama rump swab!

You are just jealous that your boy is behind O'Reilly in the ratings. Here is O'Reilly's position and it is not as you say.

----------------

Leading the way is the radical-left Service Employees International Union, a huge supporter of Barack Obama, and a force that represents 2 million workers in the USA and Canada. That union, allied with George Soros and Miss Pelosi, is pushing for a dramatic change in America -- a change that would badly damage our capitalistic system, which these people feel is unjust. Very quietly, the SEIU is buying a lot of airtime.

Ping........................

I’m sure it’ll be the ol’ tiiiiiiired, “distraction” argument since ‘08 “we have other more important things to concentrate on, birthers and ghosters can’t walk and chew gum at the same time!”

My answer to 0h0m0llah’s lackeys, as it’s been all along:

YES, WE CAN, 0h0m0llah!

Hey communist cowards, do you remember your shellacking by the November ‘10 results?

Apparently, the constitutional chewed tons of gum and managed to spit in the regime’s and communist media’s faces while defeating them in the ‘10 election.

Maybe as a last resort, Muammar 0b0z0 is thinking of ordering the USAF to bomb the TPs a la Libya!

There is a concerted effort by the Obama defense team to get the MSM to link “birther” beliefs with “Obama is a Muslim” beliefs, as if those were one and the same.

Before that and to some extend currently, “birther” beliefs are framed by the MSM as being lined to “truther” beliefs.

There has never any stand-alone MSM discussion of why Obama has not released his HI vital records except, ironically, by Chris Matthews. And he only asked the question and did not follow up with any speculation, discussion or investigative journalism on the issue.

I wish BOR (who’s only looking out for the *folks*) would explore the fact that there is still SO MUCH we don’t know about B0. He could have a ball trying to find out about B0’s past. Forget the BC issue. Focus on B0’s past. As you’ve said before, what about his school transcripts, medical records, passport info, etc. If BOR and his investigative staff would delve into the “Dreams” book, they’d find a made up, fairytale book.

We know the guy(?) in the White House is a socialist and BOR to this day refuses to recognize that. He looks shocked when a guest says that B0 is a socialist and wants the country to be socialist.

0h0m0llah ain't a guy, that's for sure! He ain't a Socialist either; he's a hard core Communist.

To call him Socialist gets the communist media to question the charge of Socialism instead of Communism. If they discuss Socialism only, which diluting the truth and pulling the wool on We the People's eyes.

If communism is even discussed, it has to carry the argument of throwing him out of office to where he belongs, say a bathhouse!

He could have a ball trying to find out about B0’s past.

BORing can't do that because he has nobody to interview but captive FNC employees. He's dying and begging for 0b0z0 and other communists to come to the "all soft and spin zone." If he practices real journalism, no communist would give a second thought to coming on The Factor.

I predict that the Factor won't be a factor in anything in a few months and BORing is trying to save it by playing softball with the communists. He let's some of his guests touch on the subject then debunks him/her as far-right kook.

The REAL Factor is Rupert Murdoch who won't allow any REAL discussion on "his" media. I'm positive that he had been sternly warned with closer. Period.

That is NOT true. Bill says he doesn't know for a fact whether Obama is a socialist (he has never seen his card) or not BUT Bill O'Reilly says that Obama's policies are socialist. He has said this several times.
