Elisabeth Hasselbeck Pisses Against The Wind Again. ....Bill Maher

[rsmith6621]

On his Friday HBO show Bill Maher responded to news that Lara Logan, chief foreign affairs correspondent for CBS News, had been detained and subsequently released in Cairo in fairly typical fashion:

New rule: now that Hosni Mubarak has released Lara Logan, he must put her intrepid hotness on a plane immediately. In exchange, we will send Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

In equally typical fashion, Hasselbeck was enraged by the remark.

On today View she went off on an angry rant about her unscheduled appearance saying that though she tried to address only "real men," she would make an exception and address "Billy Maher," as she called him.

"Notice how the audience laughs," said Barbara Walters, indicating that Maher's comment was a joke.

"You can hide anything in the cloak of a joke. It is unfair. It is chauvinistic what you said, and you'll probably run this again, and I find it disturbing -- but also amusing -- that I happen to be on your mind."

1. I was beginning to think Sherrie Shepard had beaten her out for dumbest "View" panelist

but Hasselbeck has made a strong comeback with her little hissy fit today.

2. I have no idea who Elizabeth Hasselbeck is, but criticize her on

her work, not her looks.

[LTR]

3. Conservative crybaby

Always the victim. Can't take a joke.

[BanzaiBonnie]

4. And she responds with "namecalling"

Calling Maher "Billy" is about as childish as it gets. It would be one thing to make comments like that to her husband and cry on his shoulder about it, but on OUR airwaves? What crap.

[LTR]

9. Keep in mind, her resume is quite thin

Before "The View", her sole media experience consisted of a season on "Survivor".

Yeah, really.

[bulloney]

10. Does anybody really believe Survivor is legit?

I find it hard to believe that people like Hasselbeck actually went to some remote part of the world most of us never heard of and lived on raw leaches and the like.

So, take away that farce of a resume filler and Hasselbeck really has accomplished nothing.

11. 'Reality' TV is all fake

A lot of it is indeed staged, and probably as 'real' as professional wrestling. At least pro wrestling acknowledges that it's more 'entertainment' than sports.

5. Honey, you ain't no Laura Logan in any measure

not even close

6. .

7. I hope someone she knows with half a brain will tell her not to get into a public

pissing match with a comedian with his own show. It never ends well.

8. It was ironic to hear Hasselwreck complaining about Maher's sexism

when she repeatedly went after him for not being a 'real man.'

[LTR]

12. And I suppose her husband is a 'real man'?

The NFL washout? The Frank Stallone of quarterbacks?
