Bill O'Reilly More Pro-Gay Than Obama

Andrew Sullivan has a post up entitled: "Bill O'Reilly: More Pro-Gay Than Barack Obama". He links to an interview on Leno in which O'Reilly says:
"President Obama has the power to stop this 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' business. Just sign an executive order. I don't know why it's taking so long—it's not fair. We should stop this nonsense."

Sullivan then adds, "Or maybe just not paralyzed by Clintonian fear." Of course, O'Reilly never says that he supports ending DADT. He just says that Obama could stop it with an executive order. As for "Clintonian fear", on Fox News, this is what O'Reilly had to say about DADT:
It's not about anti-gay. It's about being comfortable in the barracks. It's not about anti-gay.
 Such bold and fearless advocacy for gay rights! No "Clintonian fear" for Papa Bear O'Reilly!
