NEW YORK - Watching Rosie O'Donnell and Elisabeth Hasselbeck squabble on ABC's "The View" is nothing new, but Wednesday's dustup seemed particularly nasty with the co-hosts trading accusations and personal digs. A political discussion over the war in Iraq became heated when an angry O'Donnell decried Hasselbeck for not standing up for her when media outlets suggested that she'd called U.S. troops "terrorists" during a previous debate. "What you did was not defend me. ... I asked you if you believed what the Republican pundits were saying — you said nothing, and that's cowardly," O'Donnell said. Responded a stern Hasselbeck: "Do not call me a coward, because No. 1, I sit here every single day, open my heart and tell people what I believe." story

Nothing serious can come from the mouth of anyone with a squeeky, ditzy valley girl voice like Hasselbeck's; nothing not vile can come from the mouth of a bloated self-hating bull dyke like O'Donnell -- the prospect that anyone might be listening to what either of them might be saying is disgusting ....

See the thread about the president's low poll numbers. The fact that people can and do listen to shows like this, and take what they hear seriously, is a prime example of just why Bush has such low poll numbers. Polls are nothing but popularity contests, and Bush won't be winning American Idol or America's Top Model any time soon. But more people watch those shows than pay any attention to what the government is doing. They don't follow any farther than what the talking heads on shows like this tell them. They believe implicitly what they are told and never check things out for themselves. And when the pollsters come around, they regurgitate the same crap.

Makes me glad to be working weekdays, w/o access to a television here. Even when I find myself at home during the day I don't bother with The View. I could handle the occasional discussion with the previous panel but Rosie O'Donnell is intolerance personified. Ick.
