Bring On The Loons

The Southern Poverty Law Center's Mark Potok was on O'Reilly's show yesterday talking about the Oathkeepers:

O'REILLY: Is there one group in America right now that you guys believe is dangerous, is growing fast, and that the folks should know about?

POTOK: [T]hese men and women are animated by the idea that, you know, foreign forces are about to come into this country and put us under martial law and throw us all into concentration camps, I think there is a certain danger associated with that.

O'REILLY: All right. Well, it's certainly not rational.

POTOK: They're operating on the basis on crazy theories that may cause one of them to draw a gun one day.

O'REILLY: All right. You know what I'm going to do, Mr. Potok? Because it's a very interesting topic. I'm going to invite somebody from the Oath Keepers to come on the Factor tomorrow and give forth their point of view.

So... O'Reilly says "it's certainly not rational" then, in the next breath, promises to invite them onto his show to "give forth their point of view". Because that's what you do when you're Fox News. Right?
