Fox News host Bill O'Reilly said on Wednesday night that President Obama had "nothing to do" with the 2011 killing of Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden.
O'Reilly made the remarks on "The O'Reilly Factor" after daring guest Jessica Ehrlich, a Democratic strategist, to name "one accomplishment" of Obama's "that has made this country better overseas."
"Well, lets say Osama bin Laden the capture and killing of Osama bin Laden," Ehrlich replied.
"He had nothing to do with that!" O'Reilly exploded. "That was US intel and the Navy SEALs taking him out. He just said 'Do it.'"
"It happened under his watch," Ehrlich said.

Watchit, Billo! Don't ever, not for one second, allow this president to have done any good, you fucking complete waste of decent carbon and water.
"He had nothing to do with that!" O'Reilly exploded. "That was US intel and the Navy SEALs taking him out. He just said 'Do it.'
Well, duh, Bill. that's how being the president works. It isn't like presidents personally handle every situation that comes up. They issue orders for those that are supposed to handle those things to "do it". Example: Kennedy never landed on the moon, Lincoln never went to planation and set a slave free...

(27,461 posts)According to a PPP poll of likely Ohio voters, 15 percent of Republicans in Ohio think Romney is more responsible for bin Ladens death than Obama, while 47 percent of Republicans are not sure whether Obama or Romney deserves more of the credit.

(12,530 posts)Any democrats hard-up enough to appear on Fox/O'Reilly should at least have the guts to call him a proven liar straight to his face and with the cameras rolling:
O'Reilly: Obama had nothing to do with bin Laden's death.
Guest: that's demonstrably false, and you've been shown to be a liar on many occasions throughout the years. Why should someone believe your newest claim, when there's evidence that runs contrary to your claim?
He'd stroke out before long.

Without that Scum there would be some species of micro-orgamism that would die-off which in turn would take away the food for some species of small fish which feed into some of the larger fish.
I mean that gives PURPOSE to pond scum and yet you dare insult the pond scum by comparing it something as USELESS as Bill O'Reilly???!!!

What an enormous contrast to his predecessor.
