IN THE CROSSFIRE
Celebrating the Factor's 100th straight month as the #1 cable news program, O'Reilly made a special appearance on "The View."
"I commend you on your interview on 'The View.' It was the first time I ever heard audience applause for a conservative guest. Congratulations on keeping Joy quiet long enough to complete a sentence!"
Christine Hudson
Halifax, VA
"I enjoyed the pained expression of Joyous Beehive sitting next to you, kind of like you didn't wear your deodorant."
Pat Corbat
Avilla, IN
"Joy and Whoopi did what most liberals do when they can't think of anything else to say -- bash Bush."
Linda Slaugher
Rockport, TX
BOYCOTT SPAIN?
After officials in Spain open a criminal investigation into some Bush administration officials for war on terror-related crimes, the Factor wants to know -- should Americans boycott Spain?
"I do not believe that Americans should boycott spain yet, but if they continue this witch hunt against Bush administration officials -- no mas!"
Jonathan Ehret
Phoenix, AZ
"We were planning a trip to Spain in 2010. Now we're going to Alaska instead."
Joe Accornero
Indio, CA
"I was born in Spain and have always been proud of it, but after listening to your report, even I am ready to boycott my homeland."
Angel Docobo Alonso
Tampa, FL
"Before you call for a boycott of Spain, we need to think about the downside.... OK I've thought about it, let's boycott!"
Thomas Gaffney
Seattle, WA
"Now what? At least with France, I could cut back on French fries."
David Gantt
Louisville, KY
"America needs to step up and stop purchasing supplies from and supporting countries that don't support us. We should definitely boycott Spain."
Ricky Hawkins
Austin, TX
"I'm from Barcelona and I'm outraged by this piece of news. What is the ridiculous purpose of all of this? I certainly hope Zapatero will do the right thing."
Eva Prada
Chicago, IL
"Who best to judge terror and torture than Spain, the country who specialized in such practices for 350 years under the Spanish Inquisition."
Grover Grant
Port Lavaca, TX
"Why are you so exercised over Spain? Didn't Spain lose its relevance when it lost its Armada?"
John Mullineaux
Lititz, PA
"It is obvious that the appeasement approach taken by Spain after the Madrid train attack resulted in Spain trading its freedom for temporary peace. Bad deal all around, except for the terrorists."
Jack Jones
Tamuning, Guam
"Now we know where to send the Gitmo prisoners: Spain."
Robert Woodrow
San Jose, Costa Rica
"The current Spanish government won the election after the terror attack in Madrid because the Spanish people were disgusted by the previous administration's attempt to blame the attacks on the ETA."
Geoff Walker
Sydney, Australia
MESSY EATER?
The culture warriors take a look at a provocative new Carl's Jr. ad -- is it too hot for TV?
"My family and I have been boycotting Carl's Jr. for the past few years because of advertising like this."
Don Sabers
Orange, CA
"You obviously have never eaten a Carl's Jr. hamburger. They are juicy, sloppy and tasty. There is no way a beautiful woman could eat one and not look sexy."
John McLaughlin
Anaheim, CA
"Your culture warriors are cultural wimps! Any business which panders salacious material for commercial gain should be avoided, regardless of whether there are worse offenders out there."
Lisa Davis
Colorado Springs, CO
"Padma Lakshmi is a beautiful woman depicted enjoying a delicious Carl's Jr. western bacon cheeseburger, my favorite. Try one, you'll love it."
Bob Pastorius
San Mateo, CA
"I don't know about the social connotations of Padma eating a burger that way, but I am appreciative of Padma eating a burger that way."
Denny Williams
Portland, OR
"My first job in high school in 1963 was for Carl's Jr. I can guarantee I never had a customer who looked like Padma."
Ed Richison
Grand Prairie, TX
"When my boys were 6 and 7 years old, they ate burgers just like Padma, no matter how often I talked to them about table manners."
Teri Bohlinger
Colorado Springs, CO
"Maybe you should bring Padma on to eat a burger, while her ex-husband Salman Rushdie talks politics. Think of the ratings!"
Andrea Couture
Northfield, NH
REALITY CHECK
John McCain dodges questions about whether he'd support Sarah Palin in a bid for President in 2012.
"John McCain is a cad for not defending Sarah Palin. He's also a poltroon for saying he's not sure he'd support her in a 2012 presidential bid."
John Corrado
Norwalk, CT
"This is exactly why John McCain didn't get elected. He won't take a stand on anything."
Bryant Smith, USMC, Ret.
Oak Harbor, WA
"I'm so disgusted with John McCain. He picked Sarah Palin as his running mate because he thought a pretty face would win him the election."
Michele DePugh
Robesonia, PA
"McCain seems to get more and more elusive. Why can't Republicans just give Sarah Palin the respect she deserves?"
Billy Cruce
Quartz Hill, CA
MISCELLANEOUS
"'Bold Fresh' is like a stroll down memory lane! Do you think all baby boomers share some kind of social DNA?"
Catherine McPherson
Atoka, OK
"While others proclaim TGIF to celebrate the end of the work week, I choose instead TGIM -- the O'Reilly Factor is back!"
