The View has jumped waaaay over the shark.
They have somebody from one of the Teashitter groups on. This group and the others are made up generally of one group of people according to polls. They also have a bigoted element that they do not denounce nearly enough if at all.

I don't watch it. I was watching GMA for a while and didn't change the channel. I am going to send them, ABC and Disney a message.

3. As I said, it was an accident.
I was watching GMA much earlier. When I went back just now and was changing the channel, I noticed the guest and she looked a little like Rosie. It was a Teashitter. I almost threw the remote.
(Thanks for the compliment)

2. This a dangerous new obsession with the talk shows. Letterman had one of the teabaggers on too. It's
Edited on Thu May-06-10 10:35 AM by jezebel
like it is the rehabilitation tour for the teaparty. The lady on letterman was an older enlish lady who seemed like a nice granny. And this woman today on the view is not racist and sounds quite sane. And she says they are just as anti-Republican as anti-Democratic. But was she asked why they were not out there having their giant tea parties during Bush's spending? NO.
So they get to come across as just worried about the spending and quite sane and normal. It's bullshit and dangerous.
