Robert Wexler Gets O'Reilly Ambush On Front Lawn
Bill O'Reilly, accusing Rep. Robert Wexler (D) of "residential fraud" tonight, showed a clip of Griff Jenkins ambushing the Congressman, in weekend attire, on his front lawn with questions about the allegations. While Bill O'Reilly elaborated on the dubious charge, a photo of Wexler with unusually red lips was shown on the screen. Then John Fund, invited to stir up more controversy, claimed that Wexler has done nothing illegal. with video

It seems that Wexler has listed the address of his in-laws as his residence in Florida while owning a home in Maryland, where he was accosted by Bill-O's traveling mic. O'Reilly claimed it was a "ruse" and expected Fund to back him up. However, Fund was forced to admit that it wasn't illegal at all.

BOR continued the probe speculating about the state taxes Wexler pays insinuating that he is trying to cheat in some way. Fund couldn't help him with that either informing him that Florida has no income tax anyway.

O'Reilly continued the empty speculation trying unsuccessfully to discredit Wexler in some way. However, the only question that remains for me is how did Congressman Wexler's lips get so red in that shot?

6. Actually Santorum's kids were going to a PA Cyber School from VA
and he got busted for it in the Penn Hills PA School District who had to pay for his rugrats education. Penn Hills is not a rich district and Santorum was taking advantage of them.
