"BILL O'REILLY SHOWS MASSIVE HYPOCRISY ON NSA SURVEILLANCE."
Wow. You take a bunch of really badly captioned twaddle from an anti-O'Reilly site and think
THAT is to be taken seriously?
Taking a closer look at those excerpts is it not possible to believe O'Reilly actually does support properly conducted surveillance against terrorists while simultaneously showing concern over the possibility of the intelligence agencies possibly using them improperly against innocent Americans? I see no hypocrisy there; I also want to "spy" on the nation's enemies and not on innocent Americans?
The dweeb hosting in that video is clearly incapable of differentiating between the two extremes, instead he deliberatly conflates them so he can attack O'Reilly as a "hypocrite."
He has a small, small mind.
I haven't watched broadcast or cable TV in years, so I'm just going on my impressions of him from the past. If he had a come to Jesus moment on the 2A, that's good. At the time I was watching, it seemed that his convictions were based upon his situation. Maybe I was wrong, or maybe things have changed.
He believes that we do have the right to keep and bear arms for our own protection, and most recently even stated he believes the 2A was intended to help protect against a tyranny, should it arise.
What O'Reilly does NOT ..."get" about the gun rights debate is that registering guns would lead to confiscation (or atleast attempts to do so). He gets annoyed at "hypothetical" arguments even when one can point to historical examples to support them.
He isn't perfect. I don't agree with him all the time (I STILL wish he'd tell us who the head guy behind the enormous conspiracy to wrangle gasoline prices is) but that's saying a lot more than how I feel about some other of TV's pundits.
