The July 14, 2010 Email of the Day at www.lauraingraham.com, by Glenn M. of Strongsville, Ohio, said it all splendidly:

"Laura, you were spectacular last night on The O'Reilly Factor. You had Bill speechless which was clearly evident when he had to resort to asking if you were 'certifiable' or if you were actually Glenn Beck in disguise. He did not know how to respond to your questions. I loved it! GREAT JOB!"

Amen!

Laura is an authentic conservative.

Bill is not.

Laura is on a tour promoting her latest book, The Obama Diaries.

Laura wittily dares to dispute President Obama in ways that Bill, a self-described "bold, fresh piece of humanity," does not.

A former law clerk to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and federal appellate judge Ralph Winter, Laura knows what she's talking about when she talks about the law (an invaluable asset in the Age of Obama).

Blustery Bill plays a lawyer on television...and he plays one poorly.

When Laura suggests that Bill has been drinking the Obama Kool-aid, she turns the tables on him, deftly.

When embarrassed Bill insinuates that Laura is "certifiable," his fear of challenging Obama's integrity is undeniable.

Likewise, it is no compliment when Bill compares Laura to the entertaining, but educationally challenged and sometimes buffoonish Glenn Beck.

Bill probably really does think that it's insane to be as bold as Laura and Glenn.

That would explain why Bill turned away when ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief told him (twice) on "The O'Reilly Factor" that ACORN had served for years as "an unofficial arm of the Democratic Party" last year.

Now more than ever, America needs the likes of Laura Ingraham, who obviously is bolder and smarter than Bill O'Reilly and much more capable of exposing the Obama Administration than Glenn Beck.

Michael J. Gaynor

Biography - Michael J. Gaynor

Michael J. Gaynor has been practicing law in New York since 1973. A former partner at Fulton, Duncombe & Rowe and Gaynor & Bass, he is a solo practitioner admitted to practice in New York state and federal courts and an Association of the Bar of the City of New York member.

Gaynor graduated magna cum laude, with Honors in Social Science, from Hofstra University's New College, and received his J.D. degree from St. John's Law School, where he won the American Jurisprudence Award in Evidence and served as an editor of the Law Review and the St. Thomas More Institute for Legal Research. He wrote on the Pentagon Papers case for the Review and obscenity law for The Catholic Lawyer and edited the Law Review's commentary on significant developments in New York law.

The day after graduating, Gaynor joined the Fulton firm, where he focused on litigation and corporate law. In 1997 Gaynor and Emily Bass formed Gaynor & Bass and then conducted a general legal practice, emphasizing litigation, and represented corporations, individuals and a New York City labor union. Notably, Gaynor & Bass prevailed in the Second Circuit in a seminal copyright infringement case, Tasini v. New York Times, against newspaper and magazine publishers and Lexis-Nexis. The U.S. Supreme Court affirmed, 7 to 2, holding that the copyrights of freelance writers had been infringed when their work was put online without permission or compensation.

Gaynor currently contributes regularly to www.MichNews.com, www.RenewAmerica.com, www.WebCommentary.com, www.PostChronicle.com and www.therealitycheck.org and has contributed to many other websites. He has written extensively on political and religious issues, notably the Terry Schiavo case, the Duke "no rape" case, ACORN and canon law, and appeared as a guest on television and radio. He was acknowledged in Until Proven Innocent, by Stuart Taylor and KC Johnson, and Culture of Corruption, by Michelle Malkin. He appeared on "Your World With Cavuto" to promote an eBay boycott that he initiated and "The World Over With Raymond Arroyo" (EWTN) to discuss the legal implications of the Schiavo case. On October 22, 2008, Gaynor was the first to report that The New York Times had killed an Obama/ACORN expose on which a Times reporter had been working with ACORN whistleblower Anita MonCrief.
