Barbara Walters Returns To ABC The View (A Rant)

[rsmith6621]

And 3 minutes in to her talking about her Chicken Pox ordeal I changed the channel.

She said she got an ambulance ride from Washington DC to New York City in the same tone we talk about taking a cake to our neighbor. Ms Walters it must be nice to have such a great healthcare plan to pay for that. While some today will sit at home and die because they fear the cost of calling for help you got to likely ride a BIZJET configured to be an ambulance to the Big Apple.

Thanks for being arrogant so early in the day, how insensitive of you.

3. Barbara Walters is fine, and I hope she gets better.

That she had access to health care as an elderly woman, with a serious illness for someone in her age and health, is a good thing.

Have you even watched The View? Babs is clearly on our side of the political spectrum, yeesh.

8. not when she gets platinum health care while others get bankrupting health care, if any.

and she's not 'on our side'.

6. She got chicken pox from someone with shingles.

She never had CP as a child. She went to a fancy schmantzy party the night before an unnamed famous person came down with shingles and apparently was infected when they kissed in greeting. She started feeling ill a few days later and was in another muckity-muck's house for an interview when she fainted, hit her head and was rushed to the hospital, where they discovered she had CP (and a concussion).

10. Well, she still can get shingles.

I know. I did, sixty years after I had chicken pox.

7. There's something amusing about chicken pox or shingles?

I fail to see what that might be.

5. When walters interviewed mark david chapman, that did it for me. She is a worthless shill IMOP.
