Is Obama headed to the O'Reilly Factor? It sure sounds like it, according to his interview this morning on Fox and Friends, where he claimed: "We're gonna see if we can fit it in." Of course, the last time he tried to make time for a Fox interview with Chris Wallace, it took two years for him to get there. Here's hoping for another 2-year wait.

I would support such an event only if O'Reilly agreed to a "Wright-free" discourse. Sorry, I forgot myself, this is the Fox network and that would never happen!

O'Reilly said last night he would only ask 2 questions on Wright . . . Obama himself said it was an issue so I don't see why it wouldn't be fair game.

Yeah. Lets see how the Obamatons react to his possible appearance. Talk about sell-out. Anything for one more vote. Sounds like just another poltician but then he did say he would sit down with ayatollahs, Osamas, North Korean nut job and Iranian nut job.

Big mistake on his part. If Obama becomes the nominee this will be only the beginnng of the swift boating of him.

Obama has allowed his pastor to swift boat himself, if Obama would have used any common sense 10 years ago like Oprah this wouldn't be an issue and he would be flying high right now.

he got a bit of a stutter in there - good luck with O'Reilly!
Hillary didn't say um or er once.

Gosh the "progressives" didn't like it when HIllary did it ...
but they think it's great when Obama imitates it.

Hillary is the leader, the brilliant, friendly, efficient, effective natural leader.

Love or hate either man, it's win-win situation for both. O'Reilly gets the ratings and Obama gets the votes. Both sides will claim that their guy won and the other got trounced.

It should prove to be interesting viewing, in any case.

Bill O'Reilly is almost certain to say something so stupid that it will give Sen. Obama a chance to knock him back on his heels. He can't take a good swipe at Hillary because the optics would be horrible. He probably can't distance himself much further from Rev. Wright. He's always honouring Sen. McCain's service to country. But there doesn't seem to me any reason why he should cater to O'Reilly's delicate sensibilities.

The real reason why Obama is looking forward to appearing on the O'Reilly Factor is because he feels that he can still come out ahead and look good. With the great wave of support behind him, he has no fear of losing his popularity by appearing on the O'Reilly show. If he doesn't appear, it would look bad for him. If he appears, his lead is so large that a loss, small loss, will not affect him.

If the media continues to coddle Obama, he will become our next President. If the Press tells the truth and does a well documented and truthful expose on Barack Obama continually, he will not survive and Hillary will be our next President!

Hillary is better for our nation, due to Obama's lack of integrity (Hillary has more integrity) and his willingness to be stubborn in the face of adversity in situations where he should yield!

I fully and firmly stand by my words as the political negotiator, who negotiated and secured Saddam's surrender in the Fall of 1990.

Why in the world would Barack Obama debate you???

It seems to me if you were as important as you claim to be, a google search would turn up more substantive info on you and your company. It seems to just bring up a collection of stuff you yourself have posted on the web.

If you think that Hilary has any integrity whatsoever we know in which direction your moral compass points.

You wouldn't happen to be one of those Chinese donors that spent the night in the White House while Clinton was president are you? It would explain a lot of your baseless arguments.

Are you kidding me? You have the nerve to post this kind if article, completely devoid of any examples or objectivity? First off, the "media" has been doing nothing but spewing "controversy" after "controversy" about Obama since the end of Febuary, and he has received FAR more negative press then either Hillary or McCain. As for him not "surviving" however, this has clearly been the opposite of what's transpired, as Obama support has remain steady and strong.

And then you say this: "Hillary is better for our nation, due to Obama's lack of integrity (Hillary has more integrity) and his willingness to be stubborn in the face of adversity in situations where he should yield!" GIVE SOME EXAMPLES! Make an actual case, instead of this fifth grade name calling. I'll give you some real examples: Hillary has shown "integrity" by resorting to right-wing smear tactics (a woman worth over $100 million calling Obama "elitist") and pandering (gas tax holiday).

Hmm...... which candidate is this you are talking about?

"I fully and firmly stand by my words as the political negotiator, who negotiated and secured Saddam's surrender in the Fall of 1990."

I think your argument would be better suited if you offered FACTS or any sort of EVIDENCE to back it, rather than some obscure claim of having some sort of authoritative viewpoint.

Below are links to the "Clinton Chronicles". The first is a link to an hour-long video. The second is a link to the video divided up into 11 individual videos.

If this link does not work, please click on Search and type in Clinton Chronicles.)

I am sending this (I am sure you probably have this information, but have refused to share it with the public), not because I have anything against Hillary Clinton (even though I have been very displeased with her dirty tactics in this campaign).

I am sending it because Barack Obama has been so kind that he has chosen not to exploit the Clinton's dirty laundry, which they have plenty of.

While really like Bill Clinton when he was president, and Hillary says he will not run the Whitehouse, I know that he will be very influential, and will use the position for his own personal gain if she were to become Commander and Chief. In addition, Hillary has been involved in some of these dealings personally.

We have exploited the Rev. Wright issue so much against Senator Obama and refuse to let it go. Let's be fair and expose the Clinton's as well. The things that have happened before and after their tenure in the Whitehouse are dispicable. The public needs to know what they are in for again.

I hope he doesn't do it. Can you imagine Abraham Lincoln or other great presidents in history giving credence to the low-brow sensationalist media we have today (the most putrid bunch being Fox News). I was disappointed when he initially gave them credence by appearing with smirking assbag Chris Wallace, rather than pointing out that any legitimate press would not play the childish "Obama Watch" game. They are despicable tabloid-level trolls. Why doesn't he just go on the Jerry Springer show and try to talk sense to the idiots on there? He should not go on The Factor simply because O'Reilly a despicable person who runs a farce of a news show to which no intelligent politician should ever pander.

I would expect as much from Hillary; in addition to sounding more and more Republican lately, she has always deepest represented the hypocritical sleaze element of this presidential campaign; she fit right in there. This is disappointing, though, coming from Barack Obama. You know he's just going to get reamed with a bunch of condescending insults and he'll have to put on a happy face, trying to give reasonable responses to unreasonable points so he doesn't appear "angry"-- while being completely ignored. It's not worth it.

Then again, maybe if he talks to those very bad people at Fox more often, they'll stop being such dicks to him like they've done for Hillary.

He gave the standard politician's response, "We're looking forward to appearing on O'Reilly, if it can be worked in". But as I recall, Dems vowed NOT to EVER appear on Fox, come hell or high water. They were too proud to stoop that low. Since both Hillary and Dean have gone back on that vow, Obama now MUST do it. So much for standing on principles.
