MSNBC ATTACKS O'REILLY IN EFFORT TO BOOST THEIR "RATINGS"

I know, I know, It's Lawrence O'Donnell, but I find myself in agreement with him on some things. What "things," you ask? You figure it out.

112th TO READ CONSTITUTION ON HOUSE FLOOR, LTC LAKIN GETS FAMILY VISIT AT LEAVENWORTH--UPDATED--OUTBURST FROM GALLERY!

Day two for the 112th congress will be most interesting as well as historic. Members will read aloud the entire U.S. Constitution, something that's never been done in the history of the house. (I read somewhere that it's never been done before.) NPR reports--Hey, you're paying for it.

A question comes to my mind: Who gets to read Article 2, Section 1? Wouldn't it be ironic if LTC Terry Lakin's congressional rep drew that assignment? All irony aside, Rep Bill Posey of Florida's 15th would be my choice.

In related news, The Radio Patriot reports that LTC Lakin had his first family visit since being imprisoned at Fort Leavenworth.

UPDATE: Article 2, Section 1 was read by Rep Frank Pallone from New Jersey's 6th district. During his reading, there was an outburst from the gallery that caused the reading to be halted until the Speaker regained control. The SGT-AT-ARMS was ordered to remove the offending citizen(s) from the gallery.

Will Bill O'Reilly (Ted Baxter) pull out the PINHEAD label for those shouting from the gallery? The Vegas money's on "yes."--The Radio Patriot has more.

"THE VIEW" NOT SO GOOD FROM HERE

When Bill O'Reilly said "Muslims killed us on 9-11," Whoopi and Joy flipped out and walked off the set of The View, claiming O'Reilly had denigrated the entire Muslim faith by not first qualifying the statement with "extremist" or "radical." I think it goes without saying, but the gals needed something to break O'Reilly's momentum. The video is at THE BLAZE.

TONIGHT: MARK WILLIAMS WILL APPEAR ON O'RELLY'S SHOW--UPDATED

UPDATE: Don't know why Williams wasn't on O'Reilly tonight. Bill made it clear last night that Williams would be on "tomorrow night." Sorry.

Mark Williams will be on Bill O'Reilly's show this evening--8pm et. Thanks to Andrew Breitbart and the Sherrod video--a video that shows what real racism looks and sounds like--the racial spotlight is no longer on Williams. Mark Williams is no racist--he's just your everyday, hardworking American patriot.

This morning's Sacramento Bee has found more space on the front page to talk about Williams:

"Sal Russo, a GOP strategist who created a committee that has raised $5 million to fund the Tea Party Express and its political causes, said Williams is a man 'without a racist bone in his body' who is being 'attacked and vilified' unfairly."

WELCOME TO THE ADVENTURES OF... VICTORIA JACKSON

Victoria Jackson (L) with Andrea Shea King during the Tea Party Express III tour.

"The coolest conservative in Hollywood" and "The first lady of Space Coast conservatism." What a team they make! Communists everywhere had better look out!!

What's the latest news on Victoria? Her new blog, of course. I blogrolled her and I recommend you do the same. Not only is she talented and funny, she's also a very brave woman. She's not afraid to say "there's a communist in the White House," and that makes her one hell of a patriot too.

THE ADVENTURES OF A BEGINNER POLITICAL ACTIVIST

Once during a segment on the O'Reilly Factor, Victoria schooled "Ted Baxter" on what Obama is all about, but he wasn't convinced, as usual.

My apologies to Ted Baxter fans. I shouldn't compare him to O'Reilly, because Ted Baxter was actually very good at his job.

DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH FOX NEWS?

Burt's Eye View at Big Hollywood has some interesting things to say about FNC. Burt explains some of the problems he has with Fox. I have the same complaints and I know others who do as well.

O'Reilly, Hannity, Beckel, Beck and, yes, the birth certificate are mentioned.

JACK CASHILL ADDS ANOTHER DIMENSION TO THE OBAMA BIRTHER CONTROVERSY

Recently, Andrew McCarthy wrote a piece about the birther issue. In it, he made mention of a passage from Obama's book, Dreams From My Father:

“Eventually a consulting house to multinational corporations agreed to hire me as a research assistant. Like a spy behind enemy lines, I arrived every day at my mid-Manhattan office and sat at my computer terminal,” begins the passage in question. “As far as I could tell I was the only black man in the company.”

When I read the passage, I thought of Jack Cashill, hoping he'd enter the controversy with his considerable knowledge of Obama's past. Well, Jack read the same article and decided to jump in. It's about time, Jack!

BILL O'REILLY DOESN'T CARE WHERE OBAMA WAS BORN...

...and, according to O'Reilly, if he wanted to know, he could find out tomorrow. O'Reilly reports, O'Reilly decides. No Spin Zone interview from Monday: (The Radio Patriot reports)

BILL O'REILLY CHALLENGED ON OBAMA BIRTH CERTIFICATE STORY...AGAIN

From Family Security Matters' Margaret Hemenway:

On Bill O'Reilly's FOX News show, O'Reilly reassured his viewers that there is nothing to the Obama birth certificate controversy, that it is bogus, and so forth. He said,

".....The Factor investigated. Found out that it's bogus.....and again, we found that President Obama was born in Hawaii. We sent (for) the documents....."

Later in the same show, O'Reilly repeated this assurance after a segment with Ann Coulter:

".....As we mentioned, The Factor debunked the whole Birth Certificate deal more than a year ago. It was easy. The State of Hawaii sent us a copy of the document. End of story."

The Radio Patriot deals Bill in one more time.

A CHALLENGE TO BILL O'REILLY, ED MORRISSEY, AND SENATOR JIM DeMINT

O'Reilly, Morrissey, and DeMint, three people I hold in the highest of esteem. All three are satisfied that Obama's birth records are in order, that Obama is a NATURAL BORN CITIZEN. Since I'm not a trained journalist, I could be missing something here. So I'm wondering if at least one of you could complete the puzzle I have before me:

Below are the birth locations of all the presidents during Obama's life. However, I am unable to verify the most basic of information regarding Obama's birth. For example, his birth location (hospital) and the attending physician's name. Since all of you have investigated this issue and are satisfied with your findings, I'd appreciate it if you could help me complete this post. Thank you.

JFK-35: Born in 1917 at 83 Beals Street, Brookline, Mass. JFK was the first president to be born in the 20th century. After JFK was assassinated, the family repurchased the birth site and turned it into a memorial. Today it's designated as a National Historical Site.

LBJ-36: Born 1908 in rural Stonewall, Texas. While still president, LBJ had his birthplace home reconstructed, relying on old photographs and family memories, in the exact location of the original birthplace home. LBJ is the only president to have done this while in office.

Nixon-37: Born 1913 in rural Yorba Linda, Ca. Nixon's father built the home about one year prior to the former president's birth. Today it's the site of The Richard Nixon Library and Birthplace. In 1994, Nixon was buried at this site.

FORD-38: Born in 1913 at 3202 Woolworth Avenue, Omaha, Nebraska. Many years after his birth, Ford's birthplace home was destroyed in a fire. Today the site is occupied by a memorial garden and presidential birth site marker.

CARTER-39: Born in 1924 at The Wise Sanitarium, 225 Hospital St., Plains, Georgia. Carter is the first president to be born in a hospital. The hospital has since been renamed in honor of his mother: The Lillian G. Carter Nursing Center.

REAGAN-40: Born in 1911 at 111 S. Main Street, Tampico, Illinois. Reagan was born in a small apartment above the Pitney General Store. The general store is now occupied by the First National Bank. Great man, great location. On one of his many blogging travels to historic sites in-and-around Illinois, Marathon Pundit gave us this great report from Tampico, Illinois.

BUSH-41: Born in 1924 at 173 Adams Street, Milton, Mass. Coincidentally, Adams Street is named for John Adams and John Quincy Adams--father and son presidents. Below is the marker that sits at the corner of the Bush property.



CLINTON-42: Born in 1946 at the Julia-Chester Hospital, 1001 (south) Main Street, Hope, Arkansas. The hospital has since been destroyed and I couldn't find a picture of it. In fact, I couldn't find much information at all. Most of Clinton's presidential pages begin with his boyhood home after arriving from the hospital. After an exhaustive search, I found the old hospital's address and did a property site search. The search gave me the above photo. But before posting it, I called the business located at 1001 Main Street to confirm that this is the actual location where the Julia-Chester Hospital once stood. They confirmed that it was, and then I knew why it was so difficult to find the information through Clinton's presidential sites. Bill Clinton is the only president to have a presidential birth site marked with a death site: it's a funeral home. Talk amongst yourselves.

BUSH-43: Born in 1946 at (Grace)Yale-New Haven Hospital, 20 York St., New Haven, Conn. The Bush family lived in New Haven because H.W. was attending Yale University after returning from duty in WWII.

OBAMA-44: Born August 4, 1961, Honolulu, Hawaii.

Please complete this puzzle with *HOSPITAL LOCATION* and/or *ATTENDING PHYSICIAN* information.

Use the comment section or email me with the information. Again, thank you.
