President Barack Obama took a shot at Fox News in an interview with the network's Bill OReilly ahead of the Super Bowl XLVIII matchup between the Denver Broncos and the Seattle Seahawks. O'Reilly brought up the Benghazi and IRS scandals that have, in many ways, plagued Obama's presidency. The Fox News host accused Obama of distracting from the scandals to protect his image and campaign.
Your detractors believe that you did not tell the world [Benghazi] was a terror attack because your campaign didnt want that out, OReilly said. Thats what they believe.
And they believe it because folks like you tell them that, Obama said. "These kinds of things keep on surfacing in part because you and your TV station will promote them."
Prior to the interview, OReilly told Foxs Megyn Kelly that he was not nervous. He is not a bad guy, I think people misread him, he said. However, my interview this time is going to be very precise.

O'Reilly accuses Pres. Obama of hiding Benghazi due to election. POTUS: "They believe that because folks like you are telling them that."

President Obama knows how to do shade. He didn't call Fox a news station. Noooo, he called it a "TV station."
Thank you sir for the laughs.

(9,292 posts)The body language (that Billo loves to yak about) was hilarious. Billo at the edge of his chair. constantly rudely interrupting and shaking his head no, no, no. Why didn't he just call POTUS a liar and be done with it. I have never seen such disrespect towards a person, much less a president. Obama looked like he knew it was all going to happen-why do the interview in the first place?

(5,330 posts)And made a fool out of himself, that they'd put it to rest already. Obama flat-out said it was a terror attack, THE VERY NEXT DAY.
But who gives a shit? Why are we parsing words instead of talking about how the GOP *cut funding* to embassy and consulate security in the years leading up to the attack??
Talk about creating a crisis then milking it for all its worth...
