I was just doing a google search, I plugged in his name and arrested..... "We don't torture. We're Americans." He's a bit more explicit than that...<g>: newsbusters.org He's another one that ignores the reality of dealing with religious fanatics and jihadi thugs.....

I place smith, blitzer, geraldo all in the same bottle. They use their personal belief system to report versus presenting the facts and letting the viewer decide.

During his interview with Heidi Beirich of the Southern Poverty Law Center, Smith said: "There are these crazies out there who want to pretend [Obama's] not a citizen of the United States, who want to pretend that his religion is something they see as in some way troublesome to them and all of us. And there is a group perpetuating this thought, and there is a culture to which you can attach yourself very easily through the Internet. ... We know it's absolutely – there is no truth whatsoever – zero – to any of those ideas, yet they live within the computer and they fester in people's minds." Beirich agreed completely with Smith's remarks, as she responded: "You're hitting the nail on the head about these kinds of crazed conspiracies whether they're about the president, or we're hearing things like FEMA setting up camps to round up Americans and put them in. I'm getting bad sort of deja-vu from the 1990s when anti-government militias were on the rise, when Tim McVeigh committed that [bombing] in Oklahoma City and I really am hoping that we're not going through a repeat of that." worldnetdaily.com * * *
