there was no box for an independent. I left all the boxes empty. Somehow, I was assigned
Republican status."
Take a look. Reproduced below is his 1994 voter registration form from Nassau
County. I have blocked out his home address and signature so that no one can steal his manufactured

One thing we do know for sure. Bill O'Reilly is a registered Lie-o-crat.
O'Reilly is a right-wing blowhard of the schoolyard bully variety. He's not the only one. And
he isn't even the worst of them. So when, on his radio show the Monday following our
BookExpo panel, he said that if we had been in the Old West "I would have put a bullet right
between his head [sic]," I couldn't resist a little grin. It was just so Bill.
There's no shame in screwing up a statistic every now and then. People make mistakes.
It's just that somewhere deep in O'Reilly's psyche there's clearly a terror of being
proved wrong. When he's confronted with a mistake, the bully comes out, and he bludgeons
his guests with incorrect or just made-up facts and figures.
On the February 5, 2002, Factor, O'Reilly told his guest, National Organization of
Women president Kim Gandy, that 58 percent of single-mom homes are on welfare. Actually,
only 14 percent of single moms are on welfare. When Gandy challenged him, O'Reilly bloviated,
"You can't say no, Miss Gandy. That's the star. You can't just dismiss it ... it's 58 percent.
That's what it is from the federal government."
