When Bill O’Reilly Misled His Viewers [about Obama's SS#]
American Thinker ^ | April 28, 2017 | Susan Daniels

Posted on 04/28/2017 7:49:45 AM PDT by ml/nj

On Aprll 13, 2011, a viewer sent the following to Bill O’Reilly. He addressed it during the email segment of his show: John Knox: Arlington, VA: What about Obama having a Connecticut social security number. He never lived there. Bill O’Reilly: But his father lived in Connecticut for several years, John. Babies sometimes get numbers based on addresses provided by their parents. Why did O’Reilly mislead, and what is the lie?

BHO, Sr lived in MA not CT in the early 60's and in the early 60's it was not customary for babies to be issued SSN's. I was born in 1958 and generally you applied for a SSN when you started looking for your first part time job. Babies were not routinely issued SSN's until Congress required the numbers on 1040 to declare a child as a dependent.

BOR was a middle of the roader on things. He was pretty gutless when it came to going after Obama. Unlike Trump, who didn’t take anything off of the left and the media.

I would think now, the gloves are off, and BOR can go after the people who underminded him.

I WILL PREDICT HOWEVER, THAT HE IS GOING THROUGH SOME PRETTY HEAVY PERSONAL INTROSPECTION, DEPRESSION AND ANGER, THAT MOST CERTAINLY WILL MANIFEST ITSELF IN A PHYSICAL ILLNESS.

In short, all the money in the world will not bring peace. He’s a man who fell short, who really needs our prayers and support.

Seems like I’d heard something along the lines of Barky’s SSN belonging to a guy who rented a home to or from Moochelle’s parents. What are the odds of that?

I have often believed that O’Reilly was threatened or somehow coerced into being soft on Obama. O’Reilly was tough on George W. Bush when the Iraq war was turning south. With Obama, he never asked tough questions. When I watched O’Reilly for so many years, I always liked his never back off attitude when discussing a blatant wrong like child abuse or some other issue. He changed during the Obama administration.

Sadly, people of such high profile are always going to be the target of vitriolic attacks. I would like to see or hear actual proof of the sexual harassment that he has been accused of. The left has a long history of lying to take people down—Clarence Thomas, Herman Cain, Newt Gingrich..., etc. while Bill Clinton was worshipped and adored.

BOR’s Obongo suck ups were always nauseating.

Very strange. From the comments, someone posits that Barky was assigned his SSN in the 1960s by his own grandmother who was an Ass't Registrar in Hawaii and that it had previously belonged to guy who had just died.

Yet, in the article, it says the number wasn't assigned until 1977.

As usual, questions about Barky only lead to more questions.

You hit the nail on the head.

Like all the major media, Bill was part of the cover-up

“Birtherism” is the greatest Alinsky ever perpetrated.

They have gotten the American people to reject one of the most valuable safeguards bequeathed to us by the founders.
The natural born citizen clause served us well until we ignored it.
Barry Soetoro/Barack Hussein Obama should be proof enough of the wisdom of the founders when they tried to prevent him from being President by requiring someone who could only be a US citizen and nothing else.
Born here of citizen parents.
Naturally a US citizen because there is no other possibility.
One cannot be anything else and also be a natural born citizen.

It does not matter if he was born in Hawaii if his father was a foreign national.
Children of foreign nationals inherit the nationality of their foreign national parent(s).
Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.
No other possible citizenship(s).
Only when one cannot be anything else can one be a natural born citizen.

No foreign birth.
No foreign parent(s)
No foreign citizenship(s)
No foreign influence on the Presidency is what John Jay stated in a letter to George Washington as the reason for insisting on a natural born citizen.

Obama told us he was born a British subject.

Who believes Washington, Jefferson, Adams, Jay, Monroe, Madison, etc. would have found him to be a natural born citizen?

Who believes they would have thought the recently deceased King of Thailand was eligible to be President?
He was born in Cambridge MA.

Usurpation Day, January 20, 2009, happened with the complete cooperation of both parties.
They want the Constitution changed without the hassle of amending the Constitution.
Confuse people about the clear meaning of a three word phrase and voila, every anchor baby and Winston Churchill is eligible.

The bench was the reason the GOP went along with the fig leaf resolution for McCain that was used by the Democrats as cover for Obama.
Jindal, Rubio, Haley, George P. Bush and Cruz were all up and comers and the future of the party and ineligible.

The truth of the Kenyanesian Usurpation will never see the light of day because both parties cooperated in the violation of the Constitution

The man who originally had the number had only recently gotten the number shortly before he died in Hawaii and grandma appropriated for Obama in 1977.

Glad to see this truth slowly getting some oxygen.

Obama was never a citizen until the US Senate gave him a ceremonial passport. Biggest prank played on a major country in this solar system.

O'Reilly was way too cute by half, trying to play the understanding, compassionate intellectual (despite in real life being a demanding svengali with a potty mouth, a vicious temper, and a bad drinking problem...).

His attempts to be "everything to everyone" without ever taking one clearly defined side or the other of any issue, using mealy-mouthed equivocations and obfuscatory weasel-words, in the end was shown to be nothing to nobody.

Buh-bye, Bill. I'll miss you at least as much as I miss Me-again Kelly.

LMAO!!!!!

Natural born citizen means born here of citizen parents.

I'm not so sure one has to be born here. See my post On Constitutional Eligibility from January 2016.

Remember that BOR referred to Free Republic as a “far-right” website.

What used to get me, was the...”I’ll give you the last word.”

And invariably, he’d have the last word.

Born here of citizen parents.
Anything else can allow for foreign influence which is what they were trying to avoid and why they stipulated it.
I believe they used Vattel’s definition.

I believe they used Vattel’s definition.

Vattel was a Frenchman. I don't doubt that some of the Framers were aware of his work, but they were Englishmen or descended from Englishmen. The Framers were writing for other native English speakers and so would have meant whatever the common ENGLISH usage was at the time. This is what the Oxford English Dictionary strives to capture. The fact that they offer no example where parentage and place are both relevant is telling.

George Washington had a copy of Law of Nations at the Convention.
