Voight: Obama is an actor
The Washington Times ^ | 6/10/09 | Jennifer Harper

Posted on 06/10/2009 4:29:24 AM PDT by lakeprincess

"Obama is a very good actor. He knows how to play it. And he is very adept at creating this 'Obama' - this character who is there whenever the world needs something," he said.

As for Zer0, IMO he’s a good script reader and not a good actor.

Yes, he could take Katie's place and improve their ratings.

I hope JV does run for any office—he’s got my vote. I would like to see him as Governor of California—or take San Fran Nans Job. We need more like him.

He’s almost a worse extemporaneous speaker than George W. Bush.

It's hard to speak extemporaneously when you don't have anything to say. At least Dubya had something to say.

Thanks, Leni...I missed that. I did catch when Bill basically said he could not care less about the Supreme Court's ruling on Chrysler and wondered why it was even important. Thankfully, Megyn Kelly was there to spell it out.

Voight went into his well-reasoned talking points. As usual, O'Reilly was covering for Obama which he does almost every night in some major or minor matter. O'Reilly likes to be in control, and in his arrogant manner he allowed Voight enough speaking time but was pooh-poohing what he was saying.

I caught some of this before a fire alarm chased us out of the building - will track it down on-line later. But... BOR was just flat-out rude. He asks a question then answers it himself, talking right over his guest, in this case Voight, but it is his M.O. I don't know why he even bothers to have guests.

I would rather have had an hour of Jon Voight, then five minutes of O'Reilly.

He can do more as an actor who is free to speak the truth than a corrupt politician.

What a "fantastic" (in my best Arnold voice) idea! He's got all the criteria....name rec., enough $$ to back a campaign, and he knows how to be natural in front of a camera!

How much fun would it be to see a debate between Voight and Gavin Newsome?! Haha, Jon would pummel Newsome into the ground with his stare alone.

I hope Voight has a nest egg, he is never going to work in Hollyweird again.

Obama is not an actor. He’s a con artist. Eventually, Obama’s marks will understand the difference.

I saw that segment and agree with your commentary. BOR is trying to gain some traction with the dems for Fox to get them to end their boycott of the network. To do that, he pointedly denigrates conservatives. He is a showman, nothing more. Just before the Voight segment, he tried to brow beat the Media guy into his line of reasoning that is the drive by media is going away because they are dishonest. The guy said the internet is taking away their say. Of course BOR continued spewing his line of crap and the guy just kept saying no, you are not correct. Generally a subject matter expert is right on his facts but not in the land of Oz.

The attempt to put Rush around the neck of Voight was pure crap. I was surprised he did not ask him if he was a Freeper too. So what if Voight listens to Rush (or is a Free Republic reader)? After the segment I told my wife I am finally burned out on BOR and turned on Dave Ramsey.

I had to turn off BOR last night when he wouldn’t let Rove talk. He kept stepping on his respones. Come on Glen Beck.

Glen beck is worse. He had the good Doctor Sowles on and didn’t allow him to say anything.

Beck is a red meat butcher...... he throws it out to the howling pack
