O’Reilly’s Stalker Producer Ambushes Obama’s Uncle

Posted by Ellen -7859.80pc on February 21, 2013 · Flag

If you had any reason to doubt that O'Reilly Factor's stalker producer Jesse Watters – editor of the go-to website for people longing for President Obama’s assassination, Fox Nation – is anything less than a malicious bully, then check out how he deliberately ambushed and harassed President Obama’s “illegal alien” uncle – all the while pretending to “just want to talk.” 

Of course, the whole point of the exercise was to embarrass President Obama. Even though his uncle, Onyango Obama, the half-brother of the president’s father, whom he barely knew, is clearly not at all close to the First Family.

“He is perhaps the most famous illegal alien in the world,” O’Reilly said tonight, as a graphic on the screen read, “President Obama’s illegal immigrant uncle” next to Onyango Obama’s photo. Rather than go interview Onyango Obama himself, O’Reilly sent Watters to do his dirty work.

But first, Watters underscored the fact that President Obama has an “illegal” relative by asking a series of people on the street what should happen to the uncle. “Do you think he’s getting special treatment?” was one of the “questions” Watters asked.

Then it was on to the store where Onyango Obama works.

Mr. Obama obviously wanted nothing to do with Watters. “We don’t… No…” were his first words to Watters – who feigned obsequiousness at the same time that he was deliberately trying to humiliate Obama.

When Mr. Obama told him to leave, Watters said, “You don’t have to get angry with me. I just have a quick question for you.”

Obama walked away, saying, “No questions. Thank you.”

So Watters followed him, saying “I just have a quick question.”

Obama said he had called the cops and “I don’t want no questions.”

Watters disregarded that and, in a voice full of phony gentleness said, “That’s my only question, do you think you deserve citizenship? I’m not here to bust your chops.”

No, of course he wasn’t. He was there to bust President Obama’s chops. Embarrassing and intimidating Onyango was just collateral damage.

Back in the studio, Watters and O’Reilly gnashed their teeth – with ghoulish grins – over the “special treatment” they thought Obama’s uncle must have received if he has not yet been deported despite a DUI. “This is a joke!” O’Reilly exclaimed.

Well, he got that right, but not for the reasons he thought.

Although Onyango Obama has lived in this country mostly peacefully and without incident for 50 years (and he’s the president’s uncle), Watters sneered, “He’s a high priority deportation case and they’re lettin’ him stay.”

By the way, when the tables were turned and Gawker confronted Watters about his tactics, Watters refused to talk and drove off “like a coward.”

Killer O’Reilly sez

Watters and the guy who murdered Dr. Tiller are Top Dogs in my book. Now that damn defense lawyer who cost me $2 million just for sexually harassing some bimbo, he’s history. I mean, the law’s what I want it to be …

No, not a chance of that, IMO.

Been musing a bit on how intriguing it is to see the likes of O’Reilly and Watters resort to trespassing and harrassment on the grounds that they’re simply exercising their rights to freedom of speech. A freedom they’d be more than happy to deny to anybody they disagree with, but that’s another story.

I forget how many states have some version of the “Stand your ground” law (I know Florida’s is particularly inviting to the gun-toting crazy). Is it possible that O’Reilly may actually be hoping someone takes a shot at Watters? Wouldn’t put it past them, I wouldn’t.

Welcome back, rohrhide. I apologize for Aria’s comment. It was out of line and is being deleted.

Well, Lordy Lordy and Hell on steroids. Looks like we got us a genuwhine Orstralyun telling us how to beat beaver.

Aint it amazing how these half-cooked Limeys who we had to save from the Krauts, twice, can suck down a few Guiness and start showing all the courage they never had at Valley Froge or New Orleans?

I is a Texan and a proud one. I say LBJ was the best President this here Republic ever had under God. I aint got no issues with Obama and don’t have no problem with what he’s gone and done. I like the coloured folks and figures theys almost like us – ’cepting they be black an all.

But aint no-one taking my guns; specally since theres all them Muslims in need of a good licken and few more drones up the ass.

Only today I was jawing with my cousins Cindy-Lou and D’Wayne and theys be telling me them Muslims is infiltratin Mexico and planning on storming across the Rio Grande – down Brownsville way they say.

Well I’m ready. I got my Magnum and my Bushmaster and half a ton of ammo – plus a barn full of home-made amonal to blast them rag-heads all the way up Allahs butt – and I’ll shove a few yellow roses up there so he’ll know who done it an all.

This “Aussie Onlooker” don’t sound like no Crocodile Dundee or Steve Irwin to me – more like some crumpet-eating English fag. He should round up his kangabats and wombaroos and keep his gobble-hole shut – lesten I come on down there and give him a good whuppin.

Sheesh: Aussie and I seem to have met on a passing wavelength …

On topic: I really like Visitor’s 55 post on Obama having – at the ripe old age of 12 months – made all the necessary arrangements for 50 years of special treatment for his half-uncle.

Says it all in a very effective nutshell.

As I read it, all Aussie onlooker said was that a country with a similar pioneer background (with a sizeable dose of jail bait thrown in, something only Georgia shared with them) was able and willing to control the individual ownership of firearms after a particularly bad killing spree. And that it worked.

He was offering an example that it can be done, that’s all (IMO)

Hate to say this, Aria, but you reacted in a typically RW manner on this one: “I can say anything I want to about (select one: my country, my father, my dog, my religion, string beans), but I won’t listen to any outsider saying the very same thing.”

Americans started modifying the Constitution as from the time of signature and it’s perhaps time to take a good hard look at the 2nd amendment.

Aussie’s been around for quite a long time (mostly lurking) and he’s never been a troll. Not even this time: he’s just as perplexed as the rest of us at the way some people cling to their guns as Linus clings to his blanket.

Intern Jesse would blow a fuse if the masses turned the tables on him, and ask his family a few personal questions.

Billy is currently touring in select cities around the nation. We encourage the masses to ask those attending the event if they felt comfortable seeing a man who sexually harassed a female employee at Fox “News” Channel. Don’t forget to videotape the conversation.

what is it with you american’s and the 1st and woteva amendments.

Tell ya what, Aussie- How about I show up in your country, just to offer to rewrite the Commonweath act, as well as the resulting constitution that is the basis of your national laws…

I’m sure the Aussies would roll over and help me, haing “no hang-ups” and all. Especially if the way I rewrote it only helped one demographic, or created a legal bias in your government, media, etc.

Dustin, I was more or less venting. I would love to see the end of Ambush Journalism, but even if they found a way to end it without violating the 1st amendment… it opens up worse cans of worms.

Yeah. This wasn’t really about Obama’s uncle – the real target for BOR (and his audience) was Obama. And, as is usual, it’s about BOR too as Watters always seems to ask “have you heard of O’Reilly” and “do you watch The Factor”. Geez.

It’s lucky for Watters that BOR, FOX “news” and PoxNation have such low standards of, ahem, journalism. LOL!
Aria Prescott commented 2013-02-22 13:27:21 -0500 · Flag
Dustin, the problem with ambush journalism is that there’s no way to end it without trampling on both free speech and the law. I mean, think about it…

How fast could a smart (and unethical) enough lawyer use the ruling to render sting operations inadmissable? Get all evidence obtained by an undercover cop thrown out? Re-write search and seizure in a way that benefits organized crime?

Likewise, Fox News could make themselves exceptions to all the new limits on yournalism (they did get the right to pass slander off as journalism, after all), but the other networks are now not only more limited, but it’s easier to get a segment pulled if the subject doesn’t like where it’s going.

Fox News knows this- They know that it all boils down to the character of the media personality. And even the people on Fox who have any still don’t have much.

Vile Bile sinking lower and lower in the sewer he calls his mind.
Jesse an eager victim is obviously willing to go down that sewer for money.

Bullying women and old men seems to be a specialty of Bildo’s butt boy Jesse.

This was a particularly nauseating segment.

We should keep in mind that Watters was on private property and Mr. Obama repeatedly told him to leave and that he wasn’t welcome there. That means Watters was trespassing to start with, and then adding harassment to the charges. I don’t think Obama was kidding about calling the police. Watters could and should have been arrested and taken to the local jail.

As far as Mr. Obama’s deportation hearing, it’s really nothing to do with the President. The hearings for those things are backed up for months if not years due to the massive number of cases. It sounds like Mr. Obama has lived in this country for 50 years and the only thing he’s done wrong is get a DUI. Granted, I don’t approve of drunk driving at all. But there are standard punishments for that kind of thing and I don’t know that one DUI automatically gets anyone deported immediately.

Whichever of the trolls aren’t banned (again) yet will reply something along the lines of how we’re ignoring some kind of cover-up.

To which I answer: How come most career criminals take 2 years of compiling if they have five years of success? Exactly.

Obama isn’t letting him get away with anything- It’s just taking them this long to sift through 50 years. He’s still going to trial, there’s still a date set. So chill, and actually think. You know thinking? The opposite of what O’Reilly wants you to do.

Jesse, you smirking, smug, despicable asshole. Have you no decency at all? Leave the poor guy alone! (And all the other people you stalk and terrorize). It’s bad enough that you head up the grotesquely right wing propaganda site foxnation.com … It’s time for you to be thrown in jail, for harrassment, to start.

Watters and O'Reilly pretend Obama's uncle should be a "high priority deportation case."
