Bill O'Reily, Our New Best Friend or Just a Ratings Ploy
[EDITORS NOTE: Bill O'Reily, Host of The Factor~Fox News, has recently become very vocal with pro-gay comments. In an interview appearing in The Advocate and on The Factor, Mr. O'Reily, not only expressed a pro-gay viewpoint.
He made very unflattering and critical comments about, Bible believing Christians referring to them as the, "Fanatical Religious Right, who should just be ignored". Mr. O'Reily's opinion, of favoring protecting gays from job discrimination by all states passing laws to do so, opposes the effort to repeal the gay rights ordinance in Miami-Dad County and went on to say, he wouldn't complain if gay marriage ever became law. The ultimate blow to the religious rights anti-gay agenda, was, Mr. O'Reily, interview of Stephen Bennett, ex-gay and preacher of intolerance and hatred of gays on The Factor. You have to read the transcript, view the video or listen to the audio clips, Mr. O'Reily tears apart every attempt Bennett makes to use the Bible to condemn gays and/or to deny gay equality of rights. Needless to say, this has the CWFA and other fanatical members of the religious right seething. They are now waging a war to defame and berate Mr. O'Reily, by the use vicious and nasty personal attacks on him. TBC's complete news coverage below.
 
 
Concerned Women for America [CWFA] "Bill O'Reily is an Offense to Catholics"
Sept. 5: Bill O'Reily, The Factor, is taking nasty hits from Concerned Women for America, CWFA, a fanatical Religious Right group, for not condemning Homosexuality and the granting of Homosexuals Equality of Rights. They are quite bitter because he is not to buying what they are selling about GLBT's. O'Reily expressed pro-gay viewpoint in favor of protecting gays from job discrimination by all states passing laws to do so, opposes the effort to repeal the gay rights ordinance in Miami-Dad County and goes as far to say, he wouldn't complain if gay marriage ever became law. It gets even better when Stephen Bennett, Ex-Gay ~ Now Straight, appeared on The Factor, O'Reily blasted his anti-gay Bible thumping, even called Bennett a religious fanatic among other things. Read a transcript of the show or see and hear some of what was said in these video and audio clips. Also, the nasty things the head of the CWFA and Bennett said about Bill O'Reily. Then on the CWFA radio program, they really get down and dirty in their personal attacks on O'Reily, listen to a video clip of show, it's 26 minutes of the most venomous and vicious attacks by these religious right fanatics. Oh yea, their a good examples of God fearing Christians. Bennett trashes O'Reily on his website, with his 'The Gay Spin Factor' diatribe. Bennett's gays can change ministry, I did, and am now a happy hetero. Another Bennett's anti-gay diatribe, 'America: Change is Possible!'
