Who Would Jesus Smear?

Pharisee Phred Barnes on the Factor:

FRED BARNES, "BELTWAY BOYS" CO-HOST: Well, you know, he's already been elected in New Hampshire. And he was approved by one body in the Episcopal church that's in this convention right now in Minneapolis. That was the priest and the laity, but the bishops still have to do it.

And it looked like it was a slam-dunk until first this charge came along. You know, he's the founder of a group called Outright. It's a group that is to support gay and lesbians under 22 years of age or 22 and under and introduce them to gay and lesbian role models and so on.

Well, if you go to their Web site or if you went to their Web site last night, you could click to a pornographic site. I know. I did it myself.

O'REILLY: Well, let me stop you. If you go to this Web site that he founded...

BARNES: Yes.

O'REILLY: ...you say you can click to a pornographic site.

BARNES: Right.

O'REILLY: It means they have an icon? What does it say, dirty pictures here?

BARNES: No, I forget what it says. But you click to a site. And then -- and perhaps click a second time and you go to something called three pillows, which is a site I'd never heard of, but believe me it's pornographic.
