It gets really good at the end of the clip. Barbara lays it on the line... Hasselbeck cries and says "but...but...what about Barack."

[ronnykmarshall]

1. So when does Hasselcrack run off the stage

and into the arms of Fox?

[Number23]

44. EXACTLY!!

So when does Hasselcrack run off the stage and into the arms of Fox?

Because we ALL know it's coming.

And that whining, under-educated, over-privileged, brassy green-haired fool will truly NOT be missed.

[bluestateguy]

2. I think she is being encouraged to leave

If they are going to have a conservative on, fine, but have it be one of the older women. Younger women are on the Left, and don't relate to Hasslewhatever.

[cui bono]

3. God she's stupid. How did she Survive???

[lumpy]

28. When she was on Survivor, she wooed some older guy as a

'father figure'protector to help her over the hurdles; therein she is like Palin, a user.

[Tarheel_Dem]

4. Elizabeth and Sarah have so much in common. 'Nuff said....(nt)

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

5. I watched this live and shut the tv off screaming at the twit for her non-facts about

Palin and McCain.

What's upsetting is that there were people in the audience who actually applauded her a couple of times.....

[blisteringcold]

6. She's a typical right-winger

I can't stand her. She's squeels louder than Palin. Put some more lipstick on her and tell her to shut up.

[nachoproblem]

14. You have to have a token right-winger

And if yours behaves like an idiot, so much the better.

[Frances]

7. Nobody on The View

corrected Hasselbeck when she accused Biden of saying FDR was President during the Depression. Of course, FDR was President during the Depression. FDR served as President from 1932-1944. The Depression started in 1929 and didn't really end until at least 1942 when the U.S. began making airplanes, tanks, ships by the thousands for World War II. All that building gave the men not in the Armed Services jobs plus countless women as well.

Biden was incorrect when he said FDR went on TV because TV wasn't in use until after FDR died. FDR always spoke on the radio. Also the event Biden referred to took place after the market crash of 1929 but before FDR was in office.

[susanwy]

17. Actually wrong

FDR was on television in 1939 and 1940...

FDR gave a televised address from the 1939 World's Fair in New York ... thereby becoming the first U.S. President to be televised. (ON EDIT ADDED LINK)

RCA had begun to develop reliable television broadcast technology long before their legal case had been settled, and in 1939 had readied their production line to produce 4 different models of consumer TV receivers. Only one thing was needed to sell these sets... TV programs. The National Broadcasting Corporation (NBC) was RCA's broadcasting wing. It began regular U.S. television broadcasting on April 30, 1939, with a telecast of President Franklin D. Roosevelt opening the New York World's Fair. Programs were transmitted from the NBC mobile camera trucks to the main transmitter, which was connected to an aerial atop the Empire State Building.

In addition, FDR was televised from a Democratic Rally in Madison Square Garden in October, 1940.

Albeit, TV was only in about 300 homes in the NYC area at the time. Biden probably meant radio and slipped up, but the essence of his comment was correct. But, since he is the official MSM gaffe machine, no responsible journalist would bother actually analyzing the comment for truth. Plus, many of his fireside chats were broadcast on newsreels in movie theaters of the day. Much of that footage is located at the FDR library:

22. Great links

I chose the words "in use" because I was trying to say that although TV may have been invented, it was not yet available to the American public as a group.

You are right that most Americans got their nightly news from the radio, and Americans were hungry for nightly news in World War II.

You are also right that many, many Americans saw images on newsreels when they went to the "picture show," usually once or twice a week.

I'm old enough to remember those reels. I was only 3 years old when FDR died, so I don't remember seeing FDR on the reels while he was alive. When I was about 5, however, one of the newsreels showed a "re-run" of FDR's speech, "The only thing we have to fear is fear itself." I thought FDR had said, "The only thing we have to fear is beer itself." I puzzled over that statement for a very long time before someone gave me the correct word!

[susanwy]

32. That is funny

I don't fear beer, unless it is near beer!

My Dad is the one who told me to look up the news reels, he volunteered at 17 and served in the South Pacific from 1944 until the end of the war. Although, they were too poor for the "picture show", but they had an Aunt who treated he and his brother once in a "blue moon" as Dad put it!

[Gasping4Truth]

25. OMG!

All that building gave the men not in the Armed Services jobs plus countless women as well.

Is that "jobs + countless women" program still running?
I wanna sign up!
:P

[1corona4u]

39. Yes, but the whole point of Biden's statement was to

give an example of a president that came out and reassured the public of what was going on.(because bush had not said a thing to the people, since the bill had been outted, when he said that) That was why he made the reference. I think Biden just generically threw out the stock market part as a reference, and probably meant to say radio, but flubbed that part.

[raystorm7]

8. lol...Fire her ass already BaBowa!

[EnviroBat]

9. There are no words to describe my utter loathing for that bimbo.

The most useless piece of shit on that show. Contributes nothing.

[TankLV]

10. I won't use a sexist slur...I won't use a sexist slur...I wont' use a sexist slur...

Because it would be wrong to USE the slur, but not the because of the ACCURATE DESCRIPTION it would conver about that blonde BIMBO hasselbeck...

BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO! BIMBO!

and "bimbo" is not a sexist slur in this instance but an accurate description here...I am talking about the other "b" word and "c" word...

[dbmk]

13. I think you should stick with your choice

The other two confers some sort of intent and calculation, me thinks. And I can't see where such should come from.

[rebel with a cause]

11. Quit watching the view when Elizabeth came on.

Went back a few times when Rosie was there, but can't stand the chicken squawkers long enough to watch an hour of them. I watch meaningless other show and keep my sanity.

[GarbagemanLB]

12. "Palin commanded the National Guard at a time of war"

I can't believe what a moron she is.

[philly_bob]

24. "McCain commanded a brigade." Are naval aviators organized in brigades?

I thought brigades were Marines and Army, but I'm no expert...

[Confusious]

47. You are right

A brigade is army and marines unit. mcsame was a pilot and never even commanded a ship. I don't even think he was XO of a ship.

[lumpy]

27. How about Palin being an energy expert? She didn't even

have the right scoop on how much oil Alaska provides to the US; she said 20%, actually I heard it is about 3-1/2 %. 'Energy expert', that really gravels me. I can't stand phonies. She is only good at flim flamming, probably been refining that since childhood.

[lumpy]

29. The Pentagon commands National Guard units in time of war.

Another lie used by McCain is that Palin's son was sent to Iraq with the National Guard. He is not a member of the National Guard, he joined the regular army to avoid jail time.

[Reform]

15. Republican Counter Points Are Pathetic

Hasselbeck is so fine, why such a small mind? It's a shame really.
Her ideas and comments make me cringe.

[underpants]

16. "Tell us what you think" was what was said

The blonde chick doesn't know what she thinks other than debunked talking points

[yorkie]

18. It is very difficult to watch Elisabeth-she is a nincompoop

[crappyjazz]

19. This clip reminds me why I don't watch this show ...

and it's not just because of Elisabeth. I cannot stand to try to make out what they are saying half the time ... it always sounds like a "who can talk over the other louder" fest and always got on my nerves

Even if they get rid of that twit, I don't think I could watch the show ... it's too loud.

[Lucky 13]

20. Hasslebeck sucks.

nuf said

[Lucky 13]

21. Oh and as a Reskins fan... so does her husband.

but for different reasons...

[Enrique]

23. why is Barbara dressed like Queen Elizabeth I

early Halloween?

[Sukie]

26. Oy, that was so hard to watch.

I think even Barbara is getting exasperated with this gal now.........finally.

[Pacifist Patriot]

30. Sadly, I cannot watch EH without wretching. Otherwise I'd probably enjoy the clip.

[doublethink]

31. Fun stuff ..... my mom loves this program ....

so does my sister ... and if that's what they cover for the next 35 days .... awesome !! :thumbsup:

[Psst_Im_Not_Here]

33. Whoopie looks like she's gonna bite off her tongue to keep

from laughing in the beginning!

[ecstatic]

34. It's not just about experience. Anyone can ride the clock for decades

it's about judgment, temperament, and thoughtful intelligence. Rethugs don't seem to understand that. I don't care if McPalin spent 50 yrs in Washington--he is not qualified for the position of POUSA.

[Juche]

35. Palin doesn't even know how much energy Alaska produces

http://www.newscientist.com/blogs/shortsharpscience/2008/09/alaska-does-not-produce-20-of.html

She said 20%, it is 3.5%.

Palin has also never made any decisions regarding the national guard. That is up to the federal government when it comes to foreign policy.

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/08/31/alaska-national-guard-gen_n_122860.html

These arguments are so shallow and false. They fall apart with superficial research.

[Cha]

36. Had to mute most of hasslecrap..

she's so sure she knows what she's talking about and she doesn't know shit.

She already screwed herself by talking trash about Michelle Obama at some function and I don't see how they tolerate "the counterpoint".

She needs to go whining to hannity.

[JI7]

40. i hate people like her

peoplel who are so fucking loud and defensive about shit they know nothing about. like Bush and Palin.

i remember her trashing Michelle OBama who isn't running for any office. yet she is ok with that piece of shit Palin who is running for office not answering questions ?

[Cha]

41. Ignorant people like hasselback don't

think they have to make sense to keep squealing.

[JI7]

37. Hasselbeck is a moron just like Palin, she is one of those who sees herself in Palin

and loves the thought that she can be VP or Pres also if Palin can be.

she is so stupid and it's disgusting watching her.

[1corona4u]

38. That wench needs to go away.

She is about as stupid as Sarah is.

[WhoIsNumberNone]

42. Would it be possible for her to be a bigger shill for the Republican party?

I can't stand that woman.

I just can't stand her.

If there is anyone in the world more annoying than Sarah Palin...

[Kiwinet]

43. This would make a good SNL skit

:rofl:

[bukowskiforever]

45. Thanks for posting this! I didn't tape it yesterday. It gets good after 7:00

when Whoopi goes off and then Bab's comment. You can tell that Lizzie was royally pissed.

[Dinger]

46. Go To Fixed Noise Ya B**ch

Goddamn, I can't stand that POS. I don't ever, ever watch the "view," even with Whopee.
