Janeane Garofalo: Deadreckoning and Elisabeth Hasselbeck
Janeane has come the closest I've ever heard to putting their finger on the mysterious internal psychological functions of conservatives in this discussion with Rosie O'Donnell. I totally feel that "limitation" Janeane describes being around conservatives in both my family and other conservatives I know. That "wall" you can't break through made up of a combination of stupidity and competitive ego.

3. Oh my! She did expose the before the show preparation.
This is how Hasslebeck comes up with talking points. It is obvious that Lizzie has about as much intellect as Sarah Palin. Everything is orchestrated.:wtf:

9. Littlebits let it slip one time or
something. She always had a paper with talking points and 'facts' from Faux. It was Hannity I think. She repeated them as gospel.

Joy would argue with her, but at times she didn't have any facts or points to dispute Littlebits. She is much better on her own show. She has a lot more research and info.

That's why I refuse to watch the view without Rosie or someone who is a counterweight to her. I thought Whoopie would be that person. However, she is usually much too mellow at times. Rosie wouldn't let Littlebits get away with her bullshit. If they ever brought somebody on as a host who would take on Littlebits, I might watch it again.

4. "Sure, she can cry if the person reminds her of herself" (of Hasselbeck) ROFL!

6. I wish MSNBC would give Janeane a show
I think it would get good ratings to put someone on as outspoken FOR the Left as Rush Limbaugh is for the Right.

5. So the people at Fox News claim that
they work there because they can't get jobs elsewhere? Hogwash! There are plenty of opportunities for someone with their education and experience; but then again, their faces might not be on teevee every day.

7. Garofalo has spunk.
And I don't hate spunk. Rosie and Garofalo together. What a great team.

13. "Dead Reckoning" is an apt description of Hasselbeast and the rest of the RW.
And I think that this discussion between Rosie and Janeane was tops in terms of describing the mind-set of the conservatives.
