Some Obama Smearing O'Reilly Didn't Want "Folks" To Miss
John Kasich, filling in for Bill O'Reilly, on Friday, 8/15, interviewed Floyd Brown, National Campaign Fund about his recent ad smearing Barack Obama. Brown, famous for destroying Michael Dukakis with his Willy Horton ad, would like to have a repeat performance with Barack Obama. O'Reilly apparently wanted to offer Brown his support but between the Olympics and his absence, Friday was an off night. However, O'Reilly made sure "the folks" didn't miss seeing this Obama smear segment placing it on the FOX website where his TPM is usually located.

Kasich had no problem with the foreign language ad "All right, Floyd. I look at the, you know, this ad on this Spanish, his Spanish statement. I think it's fair game." Then Kasich brought up Brown's ads about Obama being a Muslim. (It's hard to say if Kasich was operating like BOR pretending to take offense but, in reality, just wanting to bring it up)

Brown responded, "Well, John, I say was he a Muslim? I don't think he's a Muslim right now. But what we have is a Barack Obama who has created kind of a cult personality around a biography that doesn't exist. Bill O'Reilly calls him the mystery man. I think that's absolutely correct."

Kasich offered a decent defense but the fact remains that Brown was given a forum on national television enabling him to say things like this.

"John, I want to answer this specifically. Because he goes around and says, "I am a product of Kansas values. I was raised and inculcated with Kansas values." His mother was an atheist, and that's no Kansas value. Just like it's no Ohio value. It's no American value."

1. "I've never done an ad on the white woman that he lived with for a year after Columbia University."
Brown was also given the opportunity by Bill O'Reilly and FOX News to ad some little extras just to spark some curiosity about the " mystery" candidate.

" I've never done an ad on the white woman that he lived with for a year after Columbia University. I mean, I think that's out of bounds. I would never do an ad on that woman, for example."

No, you would never bring up a WHITE woman, would you, Floyd? Except on national TV. And Kasich let him get away with this.

Faux News hits new lows every day, but this was horrid. And it wasn't even O'Reilly!
