O'Reilly Interviews Obama, Obama Quickly Gets Irritated

Last night before the Superbowl, Fox News' Bill O'Reilly interviewed President Obama and didn't shy away from tough topics like Benghazi or the IRS scandal. In typically fashion shortly after the interview started, President Obama got irritated and accused O'Reilly and Fox News of telling people things that aren't true. Obama reassured O'Reilly that the IRS targeting of conservatives had nothing to do with politics and said former IRS Chief Douglas Shulman visited the White House more than 100 times to help with the Obamacare rollout. Obama said there was zero corruption involved in the IRS case.

"I mean these kinds of things keep on surfacing, in part because you and your TV station will promote them."

"Not even a smidgen of corruption.”

Bill O'Reilly interviews President Obama before the Super Bowl

Earlier this morning, Special Report's Bret Baier responded to Obama's slam on Fox News. He also mentioned Hillary Clinton's swipe at the network last night during the Superbowl. Mediaite caught that exchange from Fox & Friends:

“Also clear, to use the president’s favorite word, was that he wanted to use every opportunity on all three topics before he answered to say, ‘You’re with Fox,’ as if it’s Fox’s fault,” Brian Kilmeade said.

“I suppose the back and forth was getting a little heated and that was probably baked in to some of his answers,” Baier said. “I did find it interesting that Secretary Clinton tweeted out during the game, it’s so much more fun to watch Fox when it’s someone else being blitzed and sacked. I’m not sure she was talking about the game or the O’Reilly interview. I don’t know which one. But I do think it was baked in to some of the answers beforehand.”
The second half of O'Reilly's interview will air tonight at 8 pm ET on the Fox News Channel.

I was screaming expletives for him to get off my TV when he came on.

My anger turned to amusement as he came off rather childish blaming Fox News for his scandals. He came across like; Ignore these scandals like the rest of my adoring media does and it wouldn’t be a scandal. Like I said, very childish.

O'Reilly should ask him how he would like to would be IMPEACHED EACH AND EVERY WEEK BY THE HOUSE GOP FOR THE REST OF HIS PRESIDENCY, each and every week, from now until the end of his presidency.

He has given plenty of ammunition to do this on a different count each week. Do so and force the Senate to take up the impeachment articles and vote on them.

This President has revealed himself to be a phony, fraud, and a flim-flam man with each passing day as heu pathetically tries to avoid the accountability and consequences of his own actions. He has betrayed America's trust, he has lied, misled, falsely accused, been involved with programs that have caused the death and injury of many Americans, and tried in vain to explain all of this as some kind of "phony," attack, witch hunt, or vendetta against him.

Well, in reality the only vendetta is his own vendetta against America and its traditional values and its very Constitution, since the day he set foot in the White House and long before.

President Obama, (aka Barry Soetoro), it is you, who are the phony here, you and those abetting and supporting the atrocious actions by you and your sick administration.

There is something seriously wrong when a President of the United States of America constantly attacks a group of people for exercising their First Amendment rights. The tables should be turned on him and his thug cronies.

Considering the format and time contraint, I thought O’Reilly did a pretty good job...he asked questions that no other news outlet has ever asked.

It was pretty obvious that Obozo was not happy, happy, happy.

as demonstrated, OReily is a lightweight and a NYC democrat supporter.

Obama was there to talk past Mr. Currentaffair tabloid Tv.

Obama did not go for a serious journalist.

Well... I think I learned that Obama has gotten MUCH better at lying. It’s still pretty easy to tell. But, he’s much bolder at it now. Really reckless..

Saying he NEVER met with Schulman from the IRS? Wow... that will be walked back this week, you watch.

And... not a “smidgeon of corruption”. Wow... history will judge that one harshly too.

Classic "Thou protests too much" reactions.

Some lawyer?! Idiotic and sophmorish made up rookie, pitching stories like it's the local news in Branson, Mo.

O'Reilly handing out softballs.

I can’t watch Obama, he makes me sick. After the last 2 softball interviews by Billy boy, I had no desire to watch this one.

I guess i missed some fireworks
