hasselbeck just got owned by EVERYONE on the view

[iamthebandfanman]

anybody else just watch that?


hasselbeck saying she doesnt care what anybody says or anybody points out shes still gonna repeat the smear campaign being brought on by mccain...
everyone on the panel OWNED her... even barbra! 'dont you think we have more important things to worry about?'

[BrainStorm]

1. Isn't she leaving the show?

That's what I read on yahoo.

[Erin Elizabeth]

4. No way, REALLY?

Good I hope she goes into total obscurity. NO ONE give her a damn book deal or a fucking reality show.

[weezie1317]

8. She'll probably end up on Fox.

[Left Is Write]

I'd say that's a good bet.

[godai]

14. Right next to Palin, after the election n/t

[raysr]

52. I heard yesterday

here that Heff would get her. Do they have an industrial air brush? 5 kid's?

[Mike Daniels]

37. FOX should just kill the charade that is Hannity and Colmes and just put EH in Colmes place

at least they'll have two admitted Repubs spewing out their crap instead of a Repub and a weasly Democrat who can't seem to take a consistent stand.

[BrainStorm]

9. I read that she was unhappy on the show and wanted to leave.

It was on yahoo news this weekend.

[iamthebandfanman]

10. nah shes not leaving

it was rumored she was gonna go to fox news and have her own show...but her manager says its not true

[RichGirl]

59. Actually...a one way ticket to Exile Island would be perfect for her!

[Erin Elizabeth]

2. Video.

I would like video, ESPECIALLY if Haseelcracky CRIED. I want to see her cry again, it's always great.

[shagin]

58. Video posted on Huffpo, Link Included

67. The View really annoys me... and this clip annoys me because...

1. even whoopi and babs dont know the facts well enough to shove them down this barbie doll's throat.

Examoke: She said his actions were deemed not improper re: keating. WRONG.

2. they all just yell at each other in every clip i ever see and it's really annoying

[proud patriot]

76. I love Whoopie ... "it's crap"

:rofl:

[youthere]

61. Again? I rarely watch the show..I usually just watch the clips that are talked about here..

what did I miss?

[Erin Elizabeth]

66. She's cried a couple of times.

The last time was when she tried to claim she understands what it's like to be black. Whoopie handed her her skinny white ass over that and she started to cry.

I can't remember what BS she spouted the other tearific time, but I love it when she sobs on the show.

[blue cat]

3. do tell more

for us sneaking computer time at work.

[ErinBerin84]

5. I was tempted to watch today

Elizabeth has been yapping about William Ayers for a month...she probably watched that bizarre, acid trip of a hit piece by Hannity last night too and believes every bit of it.

[firedupdem]

6. I can't watch it because that woman makes me sick! I was hoping

someone would take one for the team and give us a report! Thanks!

[iamthebandfanman]

7. holy shit! hasselbeck just said something racist!

they were showing a picture of obama and the white hair hes gotten over the course of the campaign and hasselbeck said 'every bit of white helps'

[Arugula Latte]

13. ...

:wow:

[firedupdem]

16. she's a fucking little twit.....I hate that stupid girl...she's probably

on a "hannity high" today!

[Iwasthere]

17. NO WAY!!!!

Try and wiggle ou t of that one

[iamthebandfanman]

21. Whoopie goes

'yeah, now that was funny'
and repeated it so everyone knew what she said

[Erin Elizabeth]

23. Was Whoopie being sarcastic, I hope?

[iamthebandfanman]

29. im assuming

i think she just wanted everyone to know what she said...

[Erin Elizabeth]

18. What. THE. Fuck.

ASSHOLE.

[Marrah_G]

19. Holy crap, she said that?

[blogslut]

22. No way

If that's what she said, her employment at The View is done.

[Maureen1322]

25. I thought Sherri (the Earth is flat) said that.

[iamthebandfanman]

30. oh? my mistake if so

cant wait for someone to put a vid up of this mess of a show today ;)

[OneGrassRoot]

31. I thought so, too. And she said she doesn't see it as "smear" - it's fact.

*sighs* Twit needs to crack and move on.

I give Sherri credit for doing her homework about this election stuff. She is a bible thumper and believes in the literal interpretation of the bible, but she is also educating herself about political issues.

I give her a lot of credit for that, and for sharing what she has learned in the process of becoming informed about political fact versus smear.

[blue_onyx]

54. I agree about Sherri

I'm not a fan of hers either but she isn't just repeating Republican BS while ignore all other information. Today was one of the first times I've watched The View since Rosie left and I was glad to see them all calling Elizabeth out on these smears. But I still could only tolerate a few minutes of the show.

[dem629]

53. Yes, it was Sherri.

[Erin Elizabeth]

26. Once video of this is up on the internet, it needs to be a new thread.

[iceman66]

32. Can someone explain why

this obnoxious cretin is still on the air?

[dem629]

57. The same reason anyone who is on the air is on the air.

Being on the air isn't about being right, it's about being interesting (good OR bad) enough to bring an audience. She brings viewers from a conservative perspective, just like Joy brings some from the liberal side. And the two of them together help ratings. Simple as that.

[LostinVA]

45. FOR REAL???

She should be fired for that.

And, just because I loathe HIM, too: her husband was totally faking his knee "injury" yesterday during the NY-SEA game.

[Uzybone]

49. Her husband is Tim hasselbeck

the younger brother of Matt Hasselbeck (Seattle). Tim was a sorry excuse for an NFL player. I think he is out of the league now.

[LostinVA]

50. Ack -- I thought Matt was her husband -- thanks

[cyndensco]

63. It was Sherry who said "every bit of white helps"

And it was funny. It was in relation to Obama's before and after picture - he has more gray hair now. Hasselbeck is dumb, real dumb, but not THAT dumb. At least not yet.

[Supersedeas]

65. all purity and goodness, ain't she?

[Essene]

68. this thread has turned silly... come on...

[ieoeja]

72. Why does everyone think it is wrong to make fun of racism in America?

The statement, "every bit of white helps," is a pretty clear, sarcastic shot at racism in America.

[DesertRat]

78. No, Hasselbeck didn't say that- Sherri Shepard said it. n/t

[tilsammans]

11. Major catfight!

Elisabeth annoys the crap outta me. She behaves like a pouty, whiny toddler. Grow up, already!

(But I don't think she's going anywhere. Despite the rumors, she'll stay on the show. I'm sure a lot of viewers tune it to check out her squalling.)

[Erin Elizabeth]

15. I have fantasies of Barbara accidentally

throwing out a sharp pointy elbow and connecting accidentally with Hasselcrack's face. Accidentally.

[ejpoeta]

43. when they were talking about the infant at the debate

and barbara had said she didn't think the baby should have been there, hasslebeck went off about how she would want her kids there and something about her husband wanting them all there for his games. umm... i call that selfish! sure you would like the kids there, but i think the kid should come first. and i keep wondering why that little girl keeps having to hold the baby.

[philosophie_en_rose]

12. I can't stand the View, especially since Lisa Ling left.

There used to be at least one semi-reasonable person on the show (Meredith or Lisa), but it's just screeching with Hasselbeck around. I'm surprised she takes it all so personally.

[Lady-Damai]

24. I miss Lisa Ling too.... Well, her work now counts for something.......n/t

[bullwinkle428]

20. She's got her eye on moving to Fox News, and becoming

Hannity's personal hand-puppet!

[shrub chipper]

38. Ewwww!

I just got a mental image of where Hannity's hand would have to go:puke:

[bluedeminredstate]

27. EH was pounced on by the women on the panel

but managed to say that "all of Obama's radical connections" should be looked at. As though he hanging with Al Queda on his days off...

She got her ass kicked which was great because Barbara Walters has a lifetime of connections to repugs and even she seems exasperated with the smear tactics going on now.

:popcorn:

[cyndensco]

64. I loved Sherry's and Whoopie's reaction to "all of Obama's radical connections."

They were totally exasperated.

I kind of miss Rosie - today she would have been hitting the roof.

[alcibiades_mystery]

28. She's probably going to cry again...like every white racist does when called on their racism

How could you say something like that about me? :cry:

Crying is the new "black friend."

[Lucky 13]

33. These women are a drag on our gender.

Step 1: Say something stupid and racist
Step 2: Act outraged when called on it
Step 3: Cry
Step 4: When called out on the crying scream misogyny

These women give us all a bad name. Palin has set the new standard that women need not be held to the same standard of intellect of men. You shouldn't expect as much from us... we're just girls after all! As long as we're hot and can wink at the camera, we get a free pass. Palin, Hasslebeck, Pfuckingstoopid... you're dragging down our gender. Fuck off and die.

[Erin Elizabeth]

41. Yes to everything you just said.

[mkultra]

71. the male equiv is...

Step 1: Say something stupid and racist
Step 2: Act outraged when called on it
Step 3: Get MAD
Step 4: When called out on the anger scream racism yourself.

[Jamastiene]

34. Oh, goody!!!

I LOVE it when she gets her ass handed to her.

This thread is incomplete without VIDEO. :P

:popcorn:

[Doremus]

69. Vido link upthread

[patrice]

35. Classic "Atwater": Say something plausibly deniable and then accuse others of being __________ when

you get called on it.

[Morning Dew]

36. when the video goes up, look for

Elisabeth to say that smears are ok.

I think Barbara says "Isn't it time to stop the smears?"

and Elisabeth replies
"No."

I should have recorded it.

[marshall]

39. The smears are just getting warmed up on both sides

Why stop now?

[dem629]

60. She replies: "It's the truth."

And of course the part about Ayers' past IS the truth. It's just that she's making the GIANT leap from Obama to Ayers' crimes all those years ago.

That's the logic gap here that is not noticed by the clap-like-a-seal right-wingers who are responding to these attacks.

46. "Retard" is against DU rules -- PLEASE edit your post

I don't want it deleted.

[City Lights]

44. Since she just admitted that she's a gop-propaganda-spreading stooge

who has no use for the truth, the question that needs answering is, Why is she still employed by ABC and The View?

[mscuedawg]

47. ::Note to self: Start watching the View::

:rofl:

[ecstatic]

48. Well she convinced them that it was a good idea for Trig to be up so late

:eyes:

[Metric System]

51. I thought she would wise up after 8 years of Bush, but it seems like she's become even more rabidly

Republican lately.

[ErinBerin84]

55. ok, I didn't watch today, but I read on another board just now

That they showed a picture of Biden on The View, and Elizabeth started laughing and making fun of "Biden's botox." And of course, this was after they showed a picture of John and CINDY McCain and no one else felt the need to make a snide remark. Is this true? Also, kind of rich to say in front of Barbara Walters. She's a very mean spirited person.

[firedupdem]

56. Shows they have nothing to run on! That bitch has said nasty

things about Michelle too. She's a fucking idiot. Yes, I called her a bitch...I'm a woman and I feel just fine calling her one!

[progressivebydesign]

62. still trying to figure out how a contestant on SURVIVOR gets to be in a position of influence.

God.. she is so vapid! She's got that nasty little republican - religious extremist anger - thing down perfectly.

[underpants]

70. AND argues with Barbara Walters

Not that I am a huge fan of Barbara's (don't care) but she has been around the centers of power worldwide for a loooooooong time.

Hasselbeck was clearly READING her points.

[AspenRose]

74. Exactly

How in the hell did that happen? :dunce:

[Raineyb]

73. Again?

Isn't she tired of looking like a complete moron?

Never mind I think I just answered my own question.

Regards

[mscuedawg]

75. Video is up on YouTube...here's your link...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7BfGd0Tra38

Hasselbeck needs to be gone...there is no intelligent talking to her...

[crazy_vanilla]

77. she reminds me of another shrill, dumb, yet perky republican

Gov. Pain-in-the-a$$-lin herself.

She probably aspires to be just like her idol. I hate her so much, I stopped recording the View to watch after work. I had the unstoppable urge to get inside the TV and hit her upside the head.:spank:

[polichick]

79. That is one disturbed woman - she seems terrified just to breathe!
