Did anyone just see Raquel Welsh on O'Reilly? WOW she looks great! She talked about how much she admired Mel Gibson and how she was brought up with traditional values. Bill seemed shocked! Good for her! Catch the rerun at 11:00 if you missed it.

Did anyone see MAD TV this weekend? I watched it because Bill O'Reilly plugged his appearance earlier in the week. O'Reilly was in only one skit but I thought it funny as hell. American Political Idol - a takeoff of American Idol. O'Reilly was a good sport by showing himself constantly plugging his book and giving signed book autographs. The people they had playing John Kerry, John Edwards, and Al Roker were great. Funniest line is the guy playing Al Roker stating that he always votes Democrat because he is black and it's a federal law for all blacks to...

The rule of law--it's what America is based on. We have very specific rules in this country designed to promote the general welfare and protect the citizenry, and if we don't obey those laws, we are punished. That's the way it's supposed to work. Judge Roy Moore did not obey the law. He defied a Federal court order to remove a statue of The Ten Commandments he had placed in the courthouse where he worked as Chief Justice of the Alabama Supreme Court. So his fellow justices fired him as they should have. Hundreds of newspapers across the country applauded...

In the past several days, the media have descended on Massachusetts like a flock of vultures on a wounded prey. The scenes inside and outside the Statehouse are described by many as "surreal." With the thousands of people and hundreds of cameras on Beacon Hill, the legislators say they have never seen or experienced anything like this before. The hoopla, of course, is about "gay" marriage. One of the greatest battles for America's future right now is being waged in Massachusetts – an outcome that will affect and possibly change our entire nation forever. Simply put, this battle is about...

Is it just me or is FOX News abandoning Bush? We should remember that the Gore people got to Murdoch and the DWI November surprise was dropped by a Fox affiliate in Maine. Now Bill O'Reilly went on Soccer Mom morning television and publically declared the Iraq War a mistake. Apparently, he thinks that will be like Cronkite destroying LBJ. I have long thought O'Reilly would back Kerry-- he gave Kerry a soft ball interview not long ago, has never really backed Bush and is constantly in Boston. For crying out loud, Bill's political hero is RFK. The premiere talker...

<p>ASHEVILLE - Talk radio took a hit Friday in Asheville, as WISE/AM-1310 made a dramatic format change, dropping all of its chat and call-in programs and switching to an all-sports lineup, the first of its kind in this region. The change leaves Asheville with just one talk-show radio station, WWNC/AM- 570, which was competing with WISE for the same listening audience. In the end, there just weren't enough advertising dollars to support two talk-radio stations in town, said Bruce Law, general manager of Saga Communications, the station that operates and is buying WISE.</p>

This is my second attempt in this space to convince the Democratic Party that it is committing political suicide by aligning itself with the far left. Now listen up. This country needs two strong political parties, and should have more. If the democrats self-destruct, the Bush people will run wild. They are already taken with themselves, and largely unavailable to the folks. With no competition, Dick Cheney might never be seen again. A poll by the Pew Research Center says that just 20% of Americans consider themselves "liberals," and you have to assume half of that crowd is somewhat moderate....

Bernadette Malone: Planned Parenthood's abuse of ChristmasBy BERNADETTE MALONE IF THERE EVER were ever a Christmas card I was glad not to receive, it's the one circulating around the country that reads "Choice on Earth." I'd be embarrassed that the twisted sender even had my address. The sender of this "holiday" card (sold for $15 per package over the Internet, dressed up with lots of celebration and fanfare) is Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion provider in the country. Of course, "Choice on Earth," a mockery of the Christian gospel message of "Peace on Earth," is also a euphemism for "Abortion...

This was transcribed by me from my own personal video and audio tapes of this interview. One segment of "The Factor" on The Bill O'Reilly Show - Fox News Channel - Tuesday evening - 12-23-03 - Aproximately halfway between 8 and 9 PM EDT Host: Former Ohio Congressman, John Kasich - sitting in for O'Reilly Guest: Former US Attorney, Kendall Coffey, Miami, Florida John Kasich (doing the introduction to the topic - I missed the first couple of words): "...to look at his medical records to decide if he should be charged with 'doctor shopping' for prescription pain killers. Limbaugh's...

The justices let stand a U.S. appeals court ruling that reinstated Parks' false advertising and publicity claims against OutKast and three Bertelsmann AG (news - web sites) units -- LaFace Records, the record producer, and Arista Records and BMG Entertainment, the distributors. Parks made history in 1955 when she refused to give up her seat to a white man and move to the back of a city bus in Montgomery, Alabama. Her arrest, which became a defining moment in the civil rights movement, led to a 381-day boycott of the bus system by blacks. It resulted in the end...

NEW YORK -- On the cable networks there is plenty of talk about Iraq, from speculation about quagmire to the political ramifications for 2004. But there is little enthusiasm for reporting on American soldiers themselves or paying brief tribute to the lost, beyond a constant updating of the death figures. Like some kind of grim jayvee team, U.S. soldiers who have fallen in the "postwar" don't count for as much as those who had the good sense to die when everyone was watching. The only soldier any broadcast outlet seems eager to discuss is Jessica Lynch, whose story no one...

In My World: O'Reilly Factor Transcript - Interview with Donald Rumsfeld Bill O'Reilly: Next up on the Factor is Secretary of the Defense Donald Rumsfeld. Donald Rumsfeld: Where the hell are you? What is this? O'Reilly: It's a satellite hook-up. Secretary. Rumsfeld: Then how am I supposed to strangle you if you enrage me? O'Reilly: (laughs) I guess you'll just have to come over here. Rumsfeld: I will. Start your questions! O'Reilly: So what is your opinion of how things are going in Iraq? Rumsfeld: Excellent. Our enemies are being slaughtered in mass numbers. O'Reilly: But there are many...

Did anyone catch REM on Leno last night? I just caught the part where the band sat down to be interviewed. Stipe, looked like the grisly, bald goon in the original "Chainsaw Massacre" move. He had sloppy, blue/black markings around his head and eyes, and wore pants with some spray-painted numbers down the leg. "Aren't you going to ask me about my pants?" Stipe asks Leno. "I was going to ask about the blue stuff on your head" Leno replies. "This is the number of people 'misrepresented' in the last Presidential Election!" Stipe kept taking digs at Bill O'Reilly all...

Bill O'Reilly's Morality Last night I was listening to Bill O'Reilly's radio show. He was lamenting the state of popular culture, which I must agree, always surprises me with the depth of its increasing lows. Mr. O'Reilly was explicitly upset that the number one movie at the box office is currently a remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre. Additionally, he was upset that the number one album on the Billboard charts is by the rapper Ludicris. Both Massacre and Ludicris, O'Reilly complained, glorify violence, promiscuous sex, and drugs. This is fine he said for adults. O'Reilly even went so far...

Captain RibMan is a tireless crusader for ending the rampant self-promotion that goes on in the entertainment industry!

I was going through some old newspapers and this caught my eye... Static hits NPR, VOA airwaves (original title) There's some static on the rarefied airwaves at Voice of America and National Public Radio over controversial content. For VOA, the problem is terrorism, and the tricky business of lending airtime to terrorists and their causes. Twenty-year veteran reporter and Afghan native Spozhmai Maiwandi claims she was censored, yanked off the air and put out to pasture in a "useless" desk job after she produced a rare and final public interview last September with Mullah Mohammed Omar, whose Taliban regime harbored...

Tim Robbins called out Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh, urging them to "undo their shameful" past, when they "pussied out" of service during Vietnam, by agreeing to sign up and join the military deployed to Iraq. The far-left actor proclaimed Friday night on HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher: "I would suggest that we send some of those people over there. I would love to see a Sergeant O'Reilly in the armed forces. And a Lieutenant Limbaugh. Lieutenant Limbaugh would be beautiful thing to see." Appearing on the September 19 panel with Republican Congresswoman Heather Wilson and actor/comedian Dana Carvey,...
