Bill O'Reilly inadvertantly exposed Republicans' snub of the events commemorating the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington. He angrily insisted that "no conservative or Republican was invited."
Well, it turns out that was simply not true. Both former presidents Bush were invited but declined for reasons of health. Every member of congress was invited. Prominent Republicans had better things to do: John Boehner had a meeting with congressional colleagues (obviously with knowledge of the schedule conflict). Eric Cantor's snub was even more blatant: He had a meeting with oil lobbyists to attend.
Thanks to O'Reilly's angry, false accusations, news hounds sought out the truth -- and thus exposed the obvious snub of a group the Republicans claim they want to attract into their tent.
The truth will out -- thanks to loud-mouth Bill.
