O’Reilly Psychoanalyzes Obama: He Lives In A Fantasy World He Learned At Harvard

Have Bill O’Reilly and Charles Krauthammer been hanging out with Fox News' nutty psychiatrist, Dr. Keith Ablow? How else to account for their long-distance psychoanalysis of President Obama and his “fantasy world” that may or may not be the fault of his Harvard education? And while we can laugh, the subtext is pretty darned serious.

The context for the discussion was O’Reilly’s contention – seconded by Krauthammer – that Obama deliberately pulls America’s punches when, presumably, he should be flexing muscle and giving a few international kerpows.

Fair enough, I suppose. But then O’Reilly got into baseless speculation about Obama’s mindset:

I believe that President Obama doesn’t see the border as a crisis. Doesn’t see the ISIS army as a crisis. He doesn’t see Putin as this world menace and he may see Iran as a crisis but he just wants to string it on out because as you said, rightly, he doesn’t know what to do.

So he’s basically living in a fantasy world. And that’s dangerous for the country if the president’s living in a fantasy world, right?

Get that? O’Reilly is not joining his colleagues' calls for impeachment, at least not at the moment. But he is promoting the idea that Obama is mentally incompetent.

O’Reilly later said about Obama: 

I’ll tell you what. I think he’s so disassociated from reality… that right now, President Obama is locked into this ideological fantasy world. The kind of world that they teach at Harvard. Where you adjudicated and so did I. They teach a fantasy world at Harvard, a world of what should be. Not of what is. And therefore, when you see what is, you turn away and say, “You know, nah, nah, I’m not gonna deal with that.” I really believe that’s what’s causing all of this stuff.

You can watch Krauthammer’s complete response below. He did dismiss O’Reilly’s theory. But Krauthammer came up with his own. He said, “Obama’s fantasies about the world pre-date Harvard.” Those “fantasies,” according to Krauthammer could be seen during Obama’s days at Columbia where he supported the “nutty idea” of a nuclear freeze and unilateral nuclear disarmament. “He has always had the view that American power abroad is destabilizing, often unjust and brings bad consequences,” Krauthammer concluded.

Yet another Fox News segment that purported to be about the world crises and was really just another excuse for bashing President Obama.

Watch the discussion below, from last night's The O'Reilly Factor.

One would expect that an investigative reporter of Bildo’s ‘standing’ would not have to resort to making his ass his only source.
But I still have to wonder….what is his point? Is Fox so worried that Obama will run again that they have no other point than this?
Or maybe Fox is just pointless?

How about a little Introspective Self Psycho-Analysis from Dr. Junior O’Reilly? Wouldn’t that be fun?

Someone said Junior studied Vibrator Coaching there, which led to his big sexual harassment payout. That may explain his vitriolic rants against The Crimson.

And with a few mere changes in wording, you have Bill O’Reilly talking about Bill O’Reilly.

And I thought Harvard was a highly rated academic institution. Thanks for setting me straight, Billo.

It seems that the fantasy world that the President lives in does not require American military action for anything deemed a “crisis” by Faux. Oh, they do love the good ol’ days over at Faux, when all of America’s problems could be solved by bombing the shit out of some third-world country or putting troops on the ground to show the world that we mean business. Amazing, we have a President who first response isn’t some knee-jerk show of military strength. And they detest him for that.

When did Bildo have this epiphany that our President lives in a fantasy world? When Bildo was ensconced in his gated Long Island mansion? Or maybe In his chauffeured limousine? On possibly in his private suite of offices at Fux Noise headquarters?

Too bad President Obama can’t get a 2 year teaching gig until these hostilities die down. But being President, Mr. Obama must wrestle with very difficult decisions. Even more difficult then being a Bigoted Blowhard on Fox Noose. Wouldn’t you agree Junior?

Well, when you only have one or two arguments you know how to make, you have to keep inventing ways to repeat yourself. Bill is one of the fellows Spiro Agnew was thinking of when he referred to “nattering nabobs of negativity” many years ago.

It would be funny if it weren't so serious.
