Mrs. Obama could have been challenged on her remarks, criticized for them, and even taken to task on O\u2019Reilly\u2019s show.  But the fact that Bill O\u2019Reilly, a man whose racism exceeds both Don Imus and David Duke, would choose the word \u201clynch\u201d to describe Michelle Obama is not only disturbing, it\u2019s downright revealing.  What\u2019s more revealing is the fact that Fox News has not felt the need to punish O\u2019Reilly for his remarks, implying that it is ok to talk about lynching a woman who might be the First Lady of the United States.  I am not sure he would have gotten away with offering to send a prominent Jewish woman to \u201cthe concentration camp\u201d, no matter what she had to say.<\/p>\n<p>Bill O\u2019Reilly is not only racist, he is unpatriotic.  How can you love your country when you want to have a \u201clynching party\u201d against the wife of a Presidential candidate?  While he is quick to jump on the anti-Muslim bandwagon in the War on Terror, O\u2019Reilly is the first to use terroristic words to describe his reaction to the potential First Lady.  This should alarm all of us, whether we agree with Michelle Obama or not.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>[<a href=\"http:\/\/http:\/\/blog.boycewatkins.com\/2008\/02\/bill-oreilly-wants-to-lynch-michelle.html\">Read the article<\/a>]<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Boyce Blog: Bill O&#8217;Reilly Wants to Lynch Michelle Obama: How Nice Dr. Boyce Watkins writes: I am sure Bill doesn\u2019t truly want to physically lynch Michelle Obama, but there are many ways he could have expressed his frustration.
