ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi was "released by Obama in 2009."
Yet their are yahoos out there that still believe this.

ISIS leader Abu Bakr al Baghdadi was "released by Obama in 2009."
irro said that Obama released the current head of ISIS from government custody in 2009. The Defense Department said that the man now known as Baghdadi was released in 2004. The evidence that Baghdadi was still in custody in 2009 appears to be the recollection of an Army colonel who said Baghdadi’s "face is very familiar."
Even if the colonel is right, Baghdadi was not set free; he was handed over to the Iraqis who released him some time later. But more important, the legal contract between the United States and Iraq that guaranteed that the United States would give up custody of virtually every detainee was signed during the Bush administration. It would have required an extraordinary effort to have held on to Baghdadi and there is no evidence that he was on anyone’s radar screen, assuming that he was in custody at all in 2009.
The U.S.-Iraq agreement drove the release of thousands of detainees in 2009, but Obama had nothing to do with that.
We rate the claim False.

Napolitano: Washington lacks constitutional right to own land in Western states | PunditFact
"The Constitution simply does not authorize the federal government to own any of this land (in the Western states)."
Napolitano said the federal government has no constitutional authority to own land in many Western states. The underlying legal argument rests on a tenuous interpretation of constitutional language and the rejection of about 125 years of Supreme Court decisions. The legal scholars we reached, regardless of any political leanings they might have, agreed that the Constitution clearly grants Washington the power to own land and that arguments to the contrary are baseless.
We rate the claim Pants on Fire.
This is why so-called "Constitutionalists" have no clue how the Constitution works.
Ann Coulter says a friend's sister "died from Obamacare" because Blue Shield of California left | PunditFact
A friend’s sister "died from Obamacare" because Blue Shield "completely just pulled out of California."
Coulter said a friend’s sister "died from Obamacare" because she was "thrown off her insurance plan, you know Blue Shield completely just pulled out of California."
We're not fact-checking whether someone died. We're looking at the circumstances Coulter presented.
Blue Shield did not pull out of California, and the company did not leave people without insurance. In fact, customers were allowed to keep their existing insurance plans through March. If the basic facts of Coulter’s story are accurate, the woman in question elected to drop insurance coverage.
Whatever the story of Blue Shield, saying someone died "from Obamacare" is incendiary and grossly misleading.
Coulter’s claim rates Pants on Fire.
FOX's angel lying her ass off as usual.

"The 'Denver Post' has actually hired an editor to promote pot."
O’Reilly said the Denver Post was a "far left concern" that had "actually hired an editor to promote pot". This goes to the newspaper's intent. The Denver Post said it planned to cover many aspects of the unfolding story of legalized marijuana in the state, ranging from policy and laws to the culture of pot users.
While that coverage has yet to unfold, the stated goals of the Post do not match O’Reilly’s description of the newspaper’s intentions and we heard nothing from the show that supported O’Reilly’s view.
We rate the claim False.
O'Reilly is a Blow-hard. He lives to embellish the truth in order to keep the base angry.
Sean Hannity says government predicted massive loss of health care | PunditFact
"In July 2010 the government said small businesses -- 60 percent -- will lose their health care, 45 percent of big business and a large percentage of individual health."
Citing a government report, Hannity said "small businesses -- 60 percent -- will lose their health care, 45 percent of big business and a large percentage of individual health."
The government report did not say that.
The report attempted to quantify the number of insurance plans that -- through the normal ebbs and flows of the market -- would change to the point that they would trigger new minimum standards.
Put another way, government analysts tried to quantify how many plans would lose their grandfathered status.
But they didn’t look at the coverage those plans offered. In those terms, many of the plans that will lose their grandfathered status already met the new minimum standards.
We rate Hannity’s claim False.

"The insurance industry is actually run by mostly Democrats."
Perino claimed that the health insurance industry is run mostly by Democrats. We could find almost nothing to suggest that’s the case.
The way most large businesses and industries show their political stripes, through campaign contributions, suggests that large health insurers and their trade associations are more likely to support Republicans. Or at the least, that they hedge their bets by supporting both sides.
We rate Perino’s claim False.
