LETTER OF THE DAY "For the first time in my adult life, I'm really not proud of my First Lady." Justin Case Amarillo, TX
VIVA LA SPAIN! First Lady Michelle Obama is coming under intense criticism for a lavish vacation in Spain. Critics don't like the fact that taxpayers are funding a massive security detail; they also question why she wouldn't spend money vacationing in the U.S. instead.
"I think it's perfectly fine for people to be upset about Michelle's travel expenses. Remember all the hoopla about Sarah Palin's wardrobe?" Joe Kowalewski South Riding, VA
"Why not a trip to Disney World instead of Spain? The kids would have more fun, the money would stay in the USA, and the union workers would make some cash." Paully Rendinell Youngstown, OH
"The First Lady taking a trip to Spain on some taxpayer expense when we have 10% unemployment is as macabre as Congress people who vote to raise taxes yet don't pay their own." Sandy Boone Camilla, GA
"I think Michelle Obama's new name should be Michelle Antoinette! The money she's spending in Spain could have gone to helping families in the Gulf coast if she had vacationed down there instead." Debra Hartley El Dorado, AR
"Michelle's trip to Spain is just another manifestation of the Obamas' contempt for the American people. The Obamas' daughter should definitely see Spain at some point, but this is a matter of principle." Catherine Murphy New Port Richey, FL
"With the Obamas vacations in Maine and Martha's Vineyard, and now Michelle in Spain, it seems they've hired the same travel agent as Tony Hayward of BP." Carl Walker Orange, CA
"I think Michelle Obama should have taken her vacation in Las Vegas. It would have made up for all the dissing her husband did telling business people to avoid it." Elizabeth Grossmayer Fresno, CA
"The Spain trip is a perfect example of the Obama arrogance. I don't believe he suspected for a minute that a backlash would occur." William King Sevierville, TN
"I'm not an Obama fan, but I don't begrudge Michelle a trip to Spain. However, I wish she had taken her husband with her. And left him there." Phil Sherriff Mill Valley, CA
"Juan Williams defended Michelle Obama's trip to Spain by saying she's under so much stress, she deserves a vacation. What about the fathers standing in the unemployment line? Do they deserve a vacation too?" Monte Jean Frame Midwest City, OK
"If Juan Williams thinks that the Spain vacation doesn't make the Obamas out of touch, he's as out of touch as they are." Ed Hinton Johnstown, OH
"Juan Williams says the Obama family is under a lot of pressure and deserve vacations. Well, he signed up for the job, so he should start owning it." Alex Pappas Houston, TX
LIBERAL VOICES Oprah Winfrey has partnered up with Rosie O'Donnell on a new cable channel. Can the ultra-far-left O'Donnell attract an audience?
"The reason Oprah is hiring Rosie is to get another liberal show and voice on the air to help Obama get re-elected." Ted Everett Blackshear, GA
"Oprah doesn't know the first thing about what American women want to watch on television. She may have had the Midas touch a few years ago, but she has since missed the mark." Laura Young La Quinta, CA
"I will never watch Rosie O'Donnell's show or Oprah's for that matter." Donna Rubli Spring, TX
"If Bernie Goldberg doesn't think that Oprah ever makes bad business decisions, then he obviously hasn't seen the movie 'Beloved' which tanked miserably at the box office." Mike Reilly Fort Wayne, IN
"One doesn't become a billionaire by making bad calls. However, I'd like you to name just one billionaire who never made at least one bad call." Joe Viera Glendale, AZ
"Oprah may be a savvy businesswoman, but everything Rosie O'Donnell has been involved in has failed. I think Oprah is making a big mistake." Barbara Taylor Boone, NC
TEFLON POLITICIAN Rep. Barney Frank (D-MA) continues to avoid accountability in the collapse of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. But the Factor has uncovered 2005 video of him saying he's pushing for more home ownership because the housing industry wasn't the type of thing to collapse.
"The reason Barney Frank keeps getting reelected despite his responsibility in the collapse of Fannie and Freddie is that the American people are idiots. This is also why Obama is president." William Schamroth Boca Raton, FL
"Barney Frank has made so many inane statements that, at this point, the only thing he could say that could possibly shock me is 'I was wrong.'" Al Alves Tucson, AZ
"Barney Frank continues to get reelected and reelected and reelected. So what does that say about the folks voting in his district?" Jerry Moody Denton, TX |
