It's a good thing O'Reilly researched it. The sad thing is that the viewers of fox news will never see that... because they don't watch anything other than fox news.

I note the idea that the one time liberal turned conservative turned liberal Arianna Huffington stole has been sold to AOL for $315 million (did they overpay!! )
Lawsuit - Arianna Huffington Stole Idea For Huffington Post | Mediaite
AOL plans on turning the moonbat site more 'centrist' . Watch Arianna ride that wave for all it's worth . She's made the shift before .I expect her to be less involved in 'Progressive' causes . She already is saying her site has to move beyond the hard left position.
This post has nothing to do with HuffPo or hard left or hard right. Nice try though.
Hello again, tom:
Let me see. Fox lies, so you retort that Ariana Huffington is making money and moving to the center?? What am I missing here?

He's trying to protect his main source of information.
NK, still obsessed with Fox News I see. This is old and once again, distorted, news. Even Hotair addressed this... last April. There is no story here, move along.
There was no debunking there at all. O'Reilly says no one on Fox News said "you're going to jail", he says "we researched to find he anybody on Fox News ever said you're going to jail.." - followed by 4 minutes of clips of various Fox News people saying "you're going to jail". Did you even watch the clip??Quote:

[QUOTE=NeedKarma;2704982]Debunking? I said nothing about debunking, I said it was addressed 10 months ago. Hotair scooped your Huffpo video.Quote:

Nothing, just the 88 posts and 7 questions you've asked.Quote:

By all means, and while you're at it, get how how many times that's been done on Huffpo... just last year. Or how many times Democrat congressman called Tea Party racist and worse.Quote:

Come on. Show me where Chris (thrill up the leg) Mathews lied, or the Olberdude, or the Madcow. If they lied, it's got to be there, doesn't it?

Hello again, Steve:
Those bastards...

They all lie, the all distort, they all exaggerate, they all have biases. I just find it amusing that Fox is the only one anyone wants to attack for it... constantly.

I hear it almost every day, I read it in my paper, Congressmen and even the president engage on Fox News bashing, which is a sport at Huffpo. The free speech loving left is fighting for ways to shut them down. No other network is attacked as much, as irresponsibly and with as much venom.
Gee, maybe there's a reason for that? You have to be blinded by your own rhetoric not to see what they do.Quote:

You can dismiss that all you want, but the facts are on my side. The spin, is on yours.Quote:

As opposed to say... THe Huffington Post... or CBS... who don't even bother to put up an opposing viewpoint to their leftist propaganda.
I was hoping like Hell the trouble makers got a hold of Katie Couric and knocked the hell out of her... when she was in Cairo... if in fact she ever really was. What a poor excuse for a news achor that witch is.
So like the people who trust Fox less now you don't actually WATCH Fox News, you're just going with what you've 'heard.' No surprise there.Quote:

Dude, it's what you said, "I've heard all about their puppet "left" guests."Quote:

This is clearly an attempt to play on the ignorance and the fear associated with the health care legislation. It is an absolute disgrace. If such antics were to appear on any of the Australian networks then 'all hell' would come down upon them.Quote:

For the average person who is probably not familiar with the legislation then this type of reporting would no doubt cause fear and mistrust in the government ( generally not a problem). My concern is for the extremely tiny minority of 'unstable' individuals who can be influenced by such nonsense as to take it upon themselves to take some drastic action.
Is the Fox motto, "No care, no responsibility?"

This is a joke right? You are aware that the people that wrote the legislation didn't even know what was in it right? How in the world could the average person know until it is released and read over in its true form. By now everyone has heard of it or some variation on it. (in America)Quote:

What is presented may have absolutely nothing to do with reality. For example, 'doing gaol time' for those who don't buy health insurance. I don't know anything about the legislation but I do know that 'doing gaol time' would be false. You do live in a democratic country don't you? It is clearly an attempt to create fear and anxiety.

There is a provision in the bill that does state that if you CAN afford the insurance and you don't buy into it. Then you can be fines up to $250,000 and / or face up to 5 years in prison.Quote:

Nothing new here. Avoiding taxes in Australia also results in fines and/or gaol. It seems that these penalties are not part of the bill itself but are provisions existing within the Department of Internal Revenue.

They call it a tax. But its not a tax until you don't purchase the insurance the government says you must. To me it's a fine and the taxation is the collection process they are using.
Call it what you will. There is no choice in the matter when it comes to buying into the program.

No taxation without representation but you have representation so taxation in any form is the go. Get used to it. Some of you are just going to have to pay your share. This is the tme for shearing the sheep and keeping the bleeting to a minimum. We understand this principle so much better than you do. It comes from hearding sheep
That buy in mandate has been declared unconstitutional by 2 Federal District judges. The judge in Florida went further and said that since the whole system concocted is dependent on the mandate to fund it ;that the whole Obamacare aka the 'Patient Protection and Affordable Health Care Act' is unconstitutional .
This will now work it's way up through the court system to be finally decided by the US Supreme Court .
Most people believe that the case will be decided in SCOTUS by a 5-4 vote with Justice Kennedy being the swing vote.
But there is an interesting twist to the plot . New SCOTUS justice Kagan was the Solicitor General of the United States during the time that Obamacare was being decided . The Solicitor General argues the government's cases before SCOTUS.
She has already recused herself from about half the cases on the docket because of her role in the Obama Administration.
As Solicitor General ,Kagan participated in meetings with the Obama administration about the soon to be healthcare law. Kagan left the Obama Administration in August after the healthcare overhaul became law.
Clearly her participation in a SCOTUS decision on Obamacare would be a conflict of interest.
The Solicitor General is the third ranking official at the Justice Dept, and its senior expert on Constitutional issues. It's unlikely and improbable that she wouldn't have been asked about a Constitutional challenge to Obamacare during the debate of the bill.
Under federal law (28 U.S.C. 455(b)(3)), judges who have served in government must recuse themselves when they have "participated as counsel, adviser or material witness concerning the proceeding or expressed an opinion concerning the merits of the particular case in controversy."
Also ,during her Confirmation hearing ,she expressed that she believed in an amazingly broad interpretation of the Commerce Clause to include "anything that would substantially affect interstate commerce."
This is taking the Commerce Clause where it has never gone before. SCOTUS has allowed restricting the selling of goods and services. Never before has it said that the government ,under justification of the clause, can force someone to purchase a good or service.
Indeed ,the intent of the Founders as written in Federalist Papers 11,42 and 45 make the opposite case. The Commerce Clause intent was to prevent States from making restrictions on interstate commerce ;it did not give the Federal government expansive powers to make laws . Federalist Papers #45 makes this point clear.
“The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the Federal Government, are few and defined. … The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects, which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties and prosperities of the people; and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State.”
Virginia Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli announced last week he would like to bypass an Appeals Court Decision and have the Supreme Court hear the 2 cases that were joined by roughy half the States in the Union against Obamacare.
If Kagan does the proper thing and recuse herself(as Senator Orrin Hatch has openly suggested ) because of the conflict of interest ,then there could be a possible 4-4 SCOTUS decision.
In that case ,whatever the lower court decided is affirmed .
You mean like if you like your current plan you can keep it? Or it will reduce the deficit? Or it's going to cover everyone? Or that cutting Medicare won't affect anyone? At least Pelosi was honest, we wouldn't know until it was was passed.Quote:
