Jeez louise, already
Why oh why do I read FAUX news at all?
Bill O'Reilly coughs up a hairball about Barack Obama's appearance this past weekend on "60 Minutes", and while his blatherings about "the Gitmo guys" (KEEEEERIST this is a mature adult saying this?) and the effectiveness of torture are easily disproved, this is the bit that just floored me:
It's worth repeating here that "The Factor's" primary job now is to provide fair oversight to the Obama administration. No cheap shots, no free passes. We'll analyze what the new president says and does in a methodical, clear, and non-biased way. In that way, we'll separate ourselves from most of the other media that are either deeply in the tank for Obama or hate him.
Yeeesh - this from the guy who takes it on himself to designate people "pinheads or patriots".
I'm sure the "fair oversight" O'Reilly will provide to the Obama administration can be judged by the poll on the FAUX "Factor" home page:
No Spin Poll
Q. What worries you most about an Obama administration?
A.
Higher taxes
Weakened national defense
Liberal judges
Open borders
If you notice a change in the Earth's rotation, it'll be Edward R. Murrow spinning in his grave that did it.

Heh. You thank that poll is loaded. I saw one even worse on CNN today. Wish I could remember the question. It was about that border patrol agent who was sent to jail for killing a drug dealer illegally crossing the boarder. Forgot the guy's name. The online poll question was something like "Will Border Patrol agent X finally receive justice from President Bush?"
Talk about slanting the question!
Q. What worries you most about an Obama administration?
How sloppy. They forgot to list Mandatory Kwanzaa celebrations as a choice.
