Joy Behar threatens to quit The View

Joy really needs to control her temper. It’s unprofessional. Save it for backstage. Barbara Walters had to call her on the carpet a few times for this kind of behavior if I’m not mistaken.

Is this shit fest still on tv?

I had read the story but not seen the video. Wow.

Rosie and Hasselbutt just seemed like shrieking yentas, while these two seem to LOATHE each other at a cellular level.

Joy has quit twice and has ended back up back on the show with a fatter check each time. Meghan will join the ranks of all the washed up conservative bimbos that have came and went over the years.

So what? Who caires?

It's escalating into Jerry Springer territory.

Shut up, Meghan, stop interrupting.

McCain needs to go. She has no idea what viewers are interested in.

Joy is a sloppy idiot. Unfunny. Truly misguided. Rude. No class. Zero education or knowledge.

Fuck you , her tempter is fine. It's The View and she's entitled to it, not The Meghan McCain Show". She can crawl back to Fox.

People watch the show for Joy and Whoopi. Joy got Whoopi her job there. She's not going anywhere, she's the only one with any real power on the show.

If she leaves, she'll get another news gig. This is the death knell for the young heiress. She'll be gone by next year.

Meghan. Isn’t she a great big fat person?

Oh hi Meghan at R9! You must be cranky because you know that you would have ZERO career if it wasn't for your last name. Perhaps you need to go have your nightly box of Krispy Kreme and STFU.

CAT FIGHT!!!

Joy wants to live and work in a liberal echo-chamber.

I don't know OP, I wouldn't be so quick to assume that Meghan is the reason that viewing is up. Rosie and Elizabeth blew up and Rosie left but Liz followed fairly soon after. The same would happen here. People think they like Meghan but without someone to push against that act she and Liz do gets tired quickly and people realize what a pain in the ass they are. It's the right amount of conflict that people love, the balance, not one voice over the other.

Haven't ratings been up for a while? They were up when Jed was there.

I can't imagine her favorability numbers are high . YouTube comments are overwhelmingly negative towards her.

Meghan is one of those porcelain-skinned types who never sweats and who eventually explodes from the accumulated liquid.

R15 Truth has a liberal bias.

No, r17, it is a sad fact that ratings are up since McCain. I don't think it's because anyone cares about her opinion, I think people are tuning in for the cat fights.

Is the show called “Joy’s View Only”?

After watching the clip Meghan was out of line. She should have sat there and let Joy finish to let the conversation move on. Joy made the point that GHWB was an environmental President who signed into law an important clean air bill but that "the president we have now" is undoing all GHWB and Obama's efforts at protecting the environment.

Joy then went on to say that if she ever BECAME a one issue voter the environment would be that one issue. It was at that point that Meghan tried to shut her up and move her along. I guess Meghan only wanted to talk about GHWB's policies if they fall in line with current climate of insane right wing bullshit. Let 's not bring up anything he did that could be viewed as bi partisan or anything that contradicts current denial of climate change.

I would need to be heavily sedated to watch this show. All the fighting and I don't care the topic. All that righteous indignation. This has been going on for years now I can't believe people watch this.

What would Baba Wawa do?

The funny thing is...if Whoopi would have said it, Meghan would have been just fine with it. Meghan is a mean girl. That was a personal attack, not a discussion or a debate. Didn't Kid Rock take a very public, unprovoked swipe at Joy late last week? And he was high-fived for it. A lot of Trump's base consider Joy to be the face of the "liberal elite". Meghan's hoping that if she pushes Joy down on the playground, she'll look like some kind of hero.

How I miss the intelligent, classy, kind, sophisticated Republican Nicole. Fired because she didn't watch Dancing with the Stars.

Good question R25. When was the last time Barbara appeared on the show. Has she ever appeared on an episode when Meghan was on the panel?

Joy is 76 years old.

She did the same thing on Friday too. She didn't want to talk about Trump's love life and had a fit on camera.

I think Barbara was last on three years ago. She has dementia.

[quote]What would Baba Wawa do?

Probably shit in her diaper.

If anyone inserts comments about Trump into a remembrance of GHWB, that indicates a level of obsession that should be called out. Whoever is Joy's therapist is not very good at their job.

I often find this show exclusively for women...the shrill, cross-talking is typically female and can put off men as it does with me. But Behar is a progressive and McCain is right-wing, so there is certain to be a lot of butting of heads. Nonetheless, McCaain is a typical new breed Repub. She is crass proudly blunt . she confesses to liking guns and drinking and reality shows, so she is marketable for the View...but not so for serious thought and commentary. She is indicative of this new breed of Repubs. The reason she resents attacks towards Trump is that she like most Repubs is ok with Trump's agenda. She is a Gingrich, no longer Rockefeller Republican. I had sympathy for her when he father died, but now that's over. I'm sick of these new rich reactionary types. The very idea that she didn't want to talk about Trump during this recent broadcast is indicative of her arrogance and the new breed of Repubs who are basically ok with the Trump's agenda. I fear for ems because they don't have the stomach for Atwater politics ...they need to get down with this crowd. there is no 'high road, it is over, Americans, we are in trouble!

Add Caitlyn Jenner to The View.

McCain is an entitled cunt. An entitled stupid cunt.

Day after day, she stands out in the worst possible way for her terrible, childish behavior. She can hold any stupid opinion she wants, but her behavior on that show is appalling. She is not ready to sit down at a table with adults and discuss anything.

R30. Trump is an imminent threat the U.S. and the world. Pointing out that he is undoing all the work prior administrations on the environment is not "obsession," it's topical, Dmitri.

While Joy was focused on GWB she was great, but bringing Trump into it.....nah. I have to agree with Megan here.

I thought Megan McCain hated Trump? And that was why she didn't want Joy to talk about him?

R35 It's entirely germane and necessary to point out that Trump is undoing any positive aspects of HW's legacy. Meghan is a petulant child that shouldn't be allowed to sit at the table with the adults.

The ratings are up because of Trump. All of cable news is up sharply because of him. Love him or hate him, everybody wants to tune in to see the latest thing he's done.

Megan has a gunt, and her pussy stinks.

Oddly enough, the ratio of positive to negative responses here is almost identical to Twitter, roughly 90% pro-Joy and 10% pro-Meghan.

R38, Trump was president for nearly a year before McCain joined the show so it's not the Trump effect.

Joy used to be a school teacher, and found big time success late in life. Megan was born with a silver shovel in her mouth.

[quote]Joy is a sloppy idiot.

McCain is so sloppy it looks like she's using her cheeks to shoplift throw pillows and tried to hide it by dipping the aftermath in a vat of botox and clown makeup.

I loathe all of them. Cunts, the lot. Although I will admit that Joy looks good for her age. I'll give her that. Otherwise, I can't stand her.

fire megans fat dum ass

joy is the soul of the show, with a twist of lemon:::love her.

I quit watchin when that dumbo joined it, FIRE MEGAN

I wish Whoopi had any other job than this.

Meghan’s husband is balls deep in shady Federalist Republican shit. A fat girl is always going to go with what’s buttering her bread.

They're all morons, but McCain is exceptionally stupid.

Was there a split-screen?

Joy should join The Talk.

Love Joy

Big Joy fan. McCain needs to go sooner than later.

Id like to see someone knock Joy Behar on her ass.

Loudmouth obnoxious cunt.

Behar is going down the same road as Judge Judy -- what once seemed cool and funny now feels like that cranky neighbor you want to avoid. Those screechy New York women. Puke.

Fatghan was unprofessional and out of line. She had no right to interrupt Joy in such a demeaning way. That fat bitch had her opportunity to speak. She doesn't need to act all entitled and dictate what other people can or can't say. She is the most annoying fat fuck on television. Why they kept her over the (thin) Nicole Wallace is a mystery. The fat cunt. And no one cares about her stupid, fucking dad either.

R53 wants to see violence against an elderly woman? What has Datalounge become?

Joy was CALMLY talking about the environment, giving credit to Bush for the Clean Air Act, did NOT mention Trump's name, when Fat Ass reudely interrupted her, with that SNOTTY tone! I'm sick of her shit.

Fuck off, frau cunt r56

Meghan's voice makes my ears bleed and the angrier she gets the more high pitched her voice becomes.

The producers should encourage Meghan to stand up to queen bitch Joy on a regular basis to get Joy to have more meltdowns on camera.

The makeup department is clearly team Joy.

People hatewatch the show for Meghan. But is that really a good gig for the rest of them?

George Bush was not a good president or a good man. The American people voted him out of office. He even tried to sell Nuclear Weapons to Iran. Also, the entire medical and public health community hates that dead fucker, for his non-response to the AIDS Epidemic.

We had a surplus back then and instead of passing Medicare for ALL. He took us to war.

I Hate the Bushes, and so should you.

[quote]Joy has quit twice and has ended back up back on the show with a fatter check each time.

When did she quit twice? She's been on the show steadily since the beginning except for those two years but she now admits they fired her to justify firing Hassleback.

Meghan is trying to provoke Joy to quit or get her fired.

the fights are what keep this show interesting (I never watch it except when my mother who watches it everyday tells me about the latest brawl)

[quote]The makeup department is clearly team Joy.

Metabolism is clearly Team Joy as well.

Blocking all the idiot Rethug trash in this thread.

Meghabeast is going to get bitchslapped for this one, you watch. She was way over the line today. She’s turning fluffy morning tv into Fox and people don’t like that. She should fuck off back to Fox or whatever Nazi rag her brother-husband plagiarizes his shitty articles for.

R31, I think Daddy McCain's choice of Palin for VP gave Meghan ideas about presentation of self as female GOP. Palin, unfortunately, clothed herself in a veneer of good old girl feminism when spewing her reactionary swill. So there was that combination of admirable self-assertion with a message that was absolute patriarchal bilge.

Team Joy!

[quote]They value Meghan over Joy so she better just get used to it

If Joy was to quit and Meghan stay, I bet ABC wouldn't value her so much if every A-list celebrity in the business would boycott The View until Joy was rehired and Meghan was shown the door. Think about it: Meghan is basically trying to suppress free speech by the other co-hosts -- either you agree with her or she shouts you down until you stop talking. That is not acceptable, I don't give a fuck how high the ratings are. So if she's allowed to get away with such deplorable (yes, I said it) behavior, then ABC should be forced to pay the price by having celebrities refuse to appear not only on The View but on any other ABC programs, including GMA and Jimmy Kimmel. I know that's hard to imagine but it would be no different really than the stars who are currently refusing to do the halftime show at the Super Bowl. Without A-list stars, all of ABC's programs would be forced to book conservative nobodies like Kid Rock and Sarah Palin to fill their couches. The minute Joy quits (or would be fired for having the nerve to stand up to the Megbeast), all it would take is one star like Amy Schumer to tweet out a call to boycott to get everyone else on board and then see how long ABC would continue to stand by that blond Rethug cunt.

A RethugLaCunt?

Who is home watching this crap? Don't people work?

Who anally penetrated McCain as a child? Always angry.

ABC needs the arguing. McCain is a high profile conservative name, and they'll keep her there unless the audience turns against her 100% like they eventually did with Elisabeth.

They’re already having trouble booking guests because it’s such a shitshow these days. The sum total of Meghan’s famous friends consists of Clay Aiken and Dana Loesch. They’re going to lose even more guests soon, then sponsors will follow. There are already too many conservative voices on that show.

Guests appear to shill their goods. Don't worry about it.

they don't really do too many A-list celeb interviews anymore anyway. Politics is there main thing.

And celebs aren't going to boycott a network owned by Disney. They want to work for the mouse.

[quote] McCain is a high profile conservative name

Hated by both conservatives and liberals... like Megyn Kelly.

The View was never about politics in the beginning. It became all political in the 2000s. Suddenly they had to get hosts with opposing political viewpoints. They didn't hire based on personality and how they got along with the others. It was a quota.

There was a period where they didn't have a repug and the show didn't work. It was just Whoopi and Joy preaching and nobody there to say anything different. The fights are what people like to see.

I don't like the fights...McCain's shrill voice has got to stop....she is a basic new Repbu type who deep down has no problems with TRUMP'S agenda. that's why she is so often offended when other panelist speak out about him. The only problem Repubs such as her have with with Trump was the way he bulldozed his way to the Repub nomination. Billy Krystle all repubs secretly go along with this right wing nonsense.

Megan is rude and unprofessional. She needs to be on Fox and Friends- not the View.

Joy used to butt heads with Elisabeth Hasselbeck but she was never as fucking rude as Meghan sorry. Meghan is becoming a pain in the ass. I think they hired Abby (another republican) because of Meghan's unstable behavior. If they fuck her off and bring Ana Navarro full time it will be fucking awesome. That way two republicans who actually see reason and not Meghan who is downright rude and has no appreciation for anyone else's opinion.

I take a break daily for the beginning of this show. I like the hot topics session. Today's show was uncomfortable to watch when this argument started. I am not sure why MM had to interrupt Joy. Her point was to pay tribute to a President that honored the environment.

This show has had a amazing shelf life and many changes. The show was never good when Behar was absent from the panel, I do not care for JB as a moderator but she is the real voice for left of center.

I prefer Anna Navaro to Megan. It is probably just a matter of time.

Can you imagine the Megan stench after those Spanx are pried off? Her pussy stinks.

McCain makes the show completely unwatchable.

She's a visual eyesore and her voice is painful to endure.

They've got Abby Huntsman to represent Conservatives, and she at least has some manners.

McCain truly is a dumb cow.

Meghan has a short shelf life on anything's been a regular on.

We’re seeing the result of a young woman who grew up doted on and treated like a princess, who is now a rude, entitled adult brat. What disappoints me the most is how Whoopi, who never minces words with anyone, placates Meghan likely because of who her father is/was, but always gave Jedidiah the business for many of her opinions. I don’t blame Joy, I would’ve told her bitch ass off too.

Who could replace Joy when she leaves?

I loathe Megan McCain but have to agree with her there. Joy’s diatribe was out of line.

Meghan is a rude cunt. She basically told Joy to STFU and Joy, rather understandably, lost it.

As for Joy wanting to be in an echo chamber, she gets along fabulously with Ann Coulter of all people. Go figure. Ann was the last guest on her HLN show and they were very complimentary of each other.

I think Joy is bothered by Meghan's rudeness and her lack of any sense of humor.

Meghan is desperate to be seen as some fun loving chick that you want to have a drink with. That desperation just oozes from everything she does - look how much I drink guys! I just love shooting guns! Everybody is my best friend! But it's all a facade and you can see right through it everyday on the show. She doesn't really know how to relate to people and exudes no warmth - nobody really would like to hang out with her. Total opposite of Joy. Meghan knows it and it bothers her.

But people are watching for this. I watched today specifically because of this.

Megan McCain is a cunt. A stupid, authoritarian, privileged, myopic cunt.

Meghan is easily replaceable. Joy is not. Get rid of that fat, blonde bitch already.

Joy is a joyless cunt.

Megan isn’t just overweight, she’s disgustingly fat. Huge. Therefore, nothing she has to say is remotely relevant.

Joy is always complimentary of Ann Coulter. She says she thinks of Coulter as a fellow comedian who just says stuff to be provocative. (I have to admit Coulter is interesting to listen to and even funny sometimes.)

I'd show her ass the door and I'd make sure it hit it on the way out.

I don't even like Meghan, but if she's willing to take out the gutter trash Joy, good for her.

McCain is a painful shrew...and a nasty fishwife.

I cannot believe people watch this show, but women can obviously put up with anything.

What are conservative values?

Is it being a coy racist, sexist and homophob, then throwing a tantrum when you are called out for it.

Is it throwing a tantrum because you are so fucking stupid, you cannot understand what the scientific method is?

I don't know how anyone could call Joy gutter trash. She's educated and funny, unlike Megan The Gunt. .

I liked how later on in the show Meghan says that in Vertigo they show a train going thru a tunnel to indicate sex and Joy corrects her with "its North by Northwest"... I was thinking the same thing. Glad Joy knows her films.

Whoever is defending that fat hog is a Trump supporter and is disgraceful.

Joy is awesome

Cindy McCain is slim but her daughters are morbidly obese. Stress eating?

Cindy McCain doesn’t have McCain family genes. The men are probably decent and the women built like oil tanks.

McCain's temper is far worse than Joy. Joy usually makes a joke to cool the situation.... McCain is all about shrieking and fighting. This time, Joy had enough.. don't blame her.

McCain is still in mourning and Joy should show some consideration for that instead of wildly lashing out against Meghan.

[QUOTE]McCain is still in mourning and Joy should show some consideration for that instead of wildly lashing out against Meghan.

I used to think how in the opening that Meghan was so fat.

Now that she has packed the pounds on, the opening is positively svelte.

She is vile, she is uncaring and she sticks to her Fox talking points.

Meghan needs to go.

R109... Sure Jan. Too lazy to post the gif.

R63 You have been beating that drum in all threads concerning the death of Bush 41.

I do not agree with you. I have never once heard anyone call out Bush for having anti-gay or anti-AIDS policies. It was Reagan who received much heat for his failure to address the issue in a timely manner. I don't doubt that you have information to back up your contention, I am merely saying that John Q. Public does not hate Bush for his stance on AIDS. You are really exaggerating IMHO.

Meghan is morbidly obese.

R97, she's eating for two now...

I disliked how Meghan cut her off. Why couldn't she let her say her piece then moved things along.

They were both too much here. She could have said can't we skip Trump right now. And Joy could have said yes we can.

Or Joy could have said, after my point which is about Bush Sr. work on the environment of course.

I hate MM.

This little outburst from MM is typical of someone who is very unsure of her place on that show and thought talking down to a veteran would make her look impressive. It was a childish attempt to make herself look like she had some sort of power or authority, and it backfired on her magnificently. In fact, it's very much the same thing Trump does all the time. Fake bravado, trying to make herself look morally superior to someone else. She just made herself look like a fool.

She won't quit because of Mooghan!

I saw it live. The problem is with the director or producers, who have turned the show into a political pundit show- without the political pundits. Just ex-comics, ex-lawyers (and whatever Meghan ever was- can't remember) without expertise. It's just a bunch of angry people shouting on a subway now.

What happened to the cooking and fashion segments? Even when they have a celeb on they have to ask what they think about Trump.

It's way too negative for daytime TV. You don't see the gals on The Talk, etc. obsessing about Trump. The View needs to consider their audience, which is mostly stay-at-home moms who need a pick-me-up, not more stress.

hang in there joy, we need u

that hag bag sag megan will be fired fore long

many complaints to the network bout her.

they keep her out of pity

The next time MM does something like this Joy should just turn and stare at her and then say "I know you think you're making yourself look better than me, but trust me Toots you're just making yourself look like a fool".

I want to see someone on the panel finally not give a shit and throw a glass of water in MM's fat ugly face, right there on camera.

If Joy quits and they keep Meghan, then they have to pair her up with an equal opponent.

I vote for Crazy Rhubarb Lady.

[quote] You don't see the gals on The Talk, etc. obsessing about Trump

Joy Behar is obsessed about him so that's why he always comes up.

R74 Some people do have VCRs fool!

"What happened to the cooking and fashion segments?"

Yes, what we need are more shows with those vacuous dead air segments.

I tune in for the political fights.

The thing about the Rosie/Hasslebeck feud is it was really a show of heartbreak because Rosie felt betrayed by Hasslebeck when she went on Fox and didn’t (as her friend) defend her to the Fox hosts who were trashing her. Their fight wasn’t actually political even though the piece started that way.

Meghan is just petulant

Yes, I agree Joy is obsessed with Trump. But it's something more than Trump, something from her past. A relative whom he reminds her of? A teacher or boss? I've even heard her hint that the current state of affairs was making her depressed, hopeless (suicidal?). Of course the others all clucked their disapproval at that.

She needs some professional help.

Can’t stand Mooghan 🐷she always has a glare on her fat face and worse yet- she’s a stupid bitch. Her daddy John was a rude irritable SOB. The apple doesn’t fall grr from 🌲 tree. Joy was not out of line. That fat bitch was and she can takes up to much space. Kick her shitty nasty pussy to the curb. Better yet/ cancel the View👿

Behar's reaction to the current bizarre behavior and criminal thuggery going on in the United States government is worthy of getting depressed, upset and angry about. Behar's reaction is normal. Not reacting to it with any emotion or defending it are abnormal reactions.

The people who need help are the people who react like Megan McCain. Fat Girl thinks that the ratings went up because of her, rather than a heightened interest in politics during a tense political time and a mid-term election. She also feeds the dumb right-wing leftovers from Bill Geddie. Fatty McCain is spoiled, unpleasant, shrewish and unlikable. As ratings stay stable, it will be because of the Mueller investigation and the presidential election, not her endless tantrums.

People paying attention to Fatty during her father's funeral gave her a distorted view of her own importance. She is not clever. She is not funny. She does not know much about politics or anything else. She does not need her own show (which is what she's gunning for as a prelude to running for public office in Arizona). She needs a diet and workout routine and a better, more serious education. Also, she needs a stylist.

Speaking of therapists R30...ask yours what’s so offensive about remembering the achievements of a recently deceased president and then mentioning the dismantling of said achievements by the current president. THEN you can ask him/her if yelling at a co-worker INSTEAD of responding like an adult--or just plain sucking it up--on national FUCKING TV is the best thing do.

[quote] Yes, I agree Joy is obsessed with Trump. But it's something more than Trump, something from her past. A relative whom he reminds her of? A teacher or boss?

I think it was a close relative, R129. She mentioned something about this once.

Joy Behar had her own political talk show. She's a political junkie. Why would she need some "issue" with a relative to be consumed with this insane, dangerous president/presidency? Every serious news person I know is consumed with this insane, dangerous president/presidency.

Have you noticed the president? He's a fucking loon on blast 24/7. He's probably already started his attack "twittering" for the day.

I think Whoopi said it best when she said, "It's just like, y'know... I don't know. I mean, when you think about it, it's sorta like, y'know, like 'Wow'. That's all I'm sayin', you know?".

McCain is an obnoxious brat.

Just like her father.

George Bush was not a good president or a good man. The American people voted him out of office. He even tried to sell Nuclear Weapons to Iran. Also, the entire medical and public health community hates that dead fucker, for his non-response to the AIDS Epidemic.

Preach!!!

I meant preach r63!!!!

Preach, R131 !!!!!

R113, perhaps you have not heard any negative comment about George HW Bush and his administration's AIDS policies, but if so, you need to pay better attention. Read more. View the relevant documentary films made on AIDS.

George HW Bush did nothing about AIDS except keeping place Ronald Reagan's disastrous policies. And Bush has been roundly and repeatedly denounced for that.

Didn't watch, but read the transcripts. You don't interrupt someone, repeatedly, after you've had your say and your time. Meghan McCain is wholly wrong here in trying to police what anyone else has to say about anything. There is that violation, and then clearly she does not get the concept of a discussion by going ad hominem. Joy called her out on it and rightfully so.

She needs to go. I like an opposing view and no one wants to watch a boring discussion where everyone agrees with everyone else, but she crossed the line here and it wasn't the first time. She owes Joy an apology.

I hope she's fired. There are others out there who can manage to follow the rules.

That was sorely in poor taste to cut off Joy about Trump when her own father didn't want him at his funeral.

Does McCain sit there every day and scowl/eye roll like a 15 year old? I watched it once and thought she was having a bad day. Is that every day?

Trump destroys everything.

[quote]The View was never about politics in the beginning. It became all political in the 2000s.

But, then came Obama and the views ratings went into the stratosphere with Elizabeth Hasselbeck and Joy going at each other. The show has been trying to recreate that dynamic ever since. Now, Trump has come as a foil has helped the show regain it's footing because for 2-3 years, (after Obama won his second term) it just floundered.

What gets me about Meghan is that she sits on her perch as if she smells shit. Never really smiles or present a welcoming face. She comes in (and it has been this way from the beginning) ready to fight. Meghan McCain knows all that is said about the right-wing and Conservatives. She also knows that what is said is true too. That's why she always looks to lie/deflect and shut down any conversation that will support that definition and view. She also likes to roll her eyes and yell. She thinks that is fighting for conservatives, etc.

What annoys me about the show now is that it seems that they are always talking over each other. I can't hear anything. Also, I wish that someone would hire Sunny a stylist. Her outfits are awful and unbecoming. I miss Jed--very stylish. I do like Abby Huntsman.

McCain is socially impaired. The weight, the outbursts, the casket dance. Something very serious happened to her in childhood.

But for now she's just a cunt. I wouldn't blame Joy if she gave the show an ultimatum. McCain has to go.

Republicans have turned into serious monsters in the last 20 years...they need to be fought in the trenches. If Megan is ignorant enough to remain a Republican, she should be shown nothing but disrespect.

Now that (as said upthread) she may have political ambitions... could it be she might be stroking Trump's ego (you know he watches) in hopes that some of his magic gold dust sprinkles on her?

R107, the adopted daughter is very wide too so it's not genetic.

Trump's magic gold dust = piss

Meghan is being a petulant, little child and almost refusing to speak today. Good!

[quote]Republicans have turned into serious monsters in the last 20 years...they need to be fought in the trenches.

Yep. Which makes me a bit circumspect of this thread. Call me a nut or a conspiracist, but in my gut I'm getting a certain "whatever" about this thread. Look... I'm convinced now that the Republicans OWN the internet. They're everywhere on Disques, blogs, etc. For people who will swear to God that they hate The View, they seem to know of every single word that is uttered on that show. When anything goes against the Republican and/or conservative brand, they pounce within seconds. This is dangerous to me. All of this propaganda being spewed all over the internet is nothing more than simple brainwashing.

McCain is NOT representing the Republican/Conservative brand. What she is doing is fighting to control the narrative about Republicans and Conservatives. She despises her co-hosts (save Abbey) and she detests the studio audiences. She knows that she has to fight an uphill battle and is using all that she can to paint a different (fake) view of Republicans and conservatives.

Wait til the husband divorces her two years after she receives her massive inheritence. She'll hit 300 pounds.

MEghan is so nasty. She never smiles and gets in jabs. I don’t know what the law is today about saying the word gun. Get off the show if you’re so miserable and hate it so much.

Is Megs red and blotchy? She gets red blotches7 when she's really angry.

Is it possible Whoopi has attached some sort of device to Meghan's labia that causes a painful shock whenever she opens her mouth?

[quote]Get off the show if you’re so miserable and hate it so much.

I think she does really hate it but she is paid well. I watch clips of the show on YouTube. I've seen her snipe at the audience when they applaud about things that she doesn't like--like anything against Republicans and conservatives. She's VERY nasty but has been that way from the very beginning.

Somebody is watching all of this, though. They're watching these blogs, comments, etc

R14 more like CUNT FIGHT!!!😂

Whoever Meghan's makeup person is should be fired. On most days she is overly made up sometimes tii the point that she appears clownish.

Anyone familiar with the McCain family should not be surprised at Megan's behavior. Her father was a vile, hate filled and rageful man. Her mother is a shark eyed druggie who attempted to ruin an innocent man when her drug theft came to light. They are white trash with money, which is generally the worst sort of white trash. Megan is a spoiled entitled brat with a victim complex. They need to just show this cunt the door, she brings nothing to the table.

[quote]she brings nothing to the table.

Hmm... she brings the FOX viewers

r160 I co-sign.

I stopped watching the show shortly after McCain's arrival. She made the show uncomfortable, unwatchable.

I doubt she brings the FOX viewers.

MMPH! That had to be some shindig of a repast!

Meghan is furious that Democrats have had the moral upper-hand since Trump was elected. She, like her father, were all about being morally superior and holier than thou on everything. That's why she became so enraged when Joy pointed out how far the Republican brand has fallen under Trump. Lindsey Graham is another one who can't stand the fact that Democrats are now seen as morally superior.

She and the other former Fox news person just told Joy Fox News is not the Trump channel. That's how Republicans work, they think everyone but Republicans are stupid.

Meaghan and the other (never bothered to learn her name) are best female friends. McCain was in the delivery room when the other had her baby. Her male best friend is Clay Aiken who will on this week and she will turn into a blithering idiot like she did when she announced he was doing a Broadway Christmas show.

[quote]She and the other former Fox news person just told Joy Fox News is not the Trump channel.

You see? Don't think that was just an off-the-cuff comment.

Democrats should be POUNCING here! Republicans rubs it in everyone face about holding the moral authority, patriotism, etc. But, how many Republicans are being asked about the voter fraud in North Carolina? Climate change? Lack of diversity, etc?

But, I just heard on MSNBC this morning about the problems Democrats will face in 2020 because they will have too many candidates and not enough minority strategists.

Really?

Behar has done no homework behind her proclamations. She just spews talking points and cannot back them up. She could own McCain if she wanted to, but just repeats stuff she's heard.

Why does The View still exist? Outside of DL, I've never heard anyone mention it.

Meaghan McCain is just a rich little daddies girl who was told from birth how special and precious she is so when someone does something she doesn't like her inner(and outer) brat leaps out and she stomps her hoof and screeches.

Megan needs to be slapped so hard it'd make her head spin. So ABC values her more, then don't watch the shitty show. All they want to do is put on a screeching carnival sideshow.

WarPath: The View's Joy Behar Still Fuming Over McCain For Ruining Her Attempt To Attack Trump

r131 - You nailed it....

But, but Meghan loves the gays....so, she tells us.

Were wigs snatched on today's show?

Somebody must have spanked her ass. She looks like a brooding child.

Someone would've had to use an oar for her to have felt a spanking.

i havent watched The View in a long time. Is that bitch in the red shirt a regular ? I dont like her...

Meghan talks in that fake low register growly voice so many broads have affected. Hideously ugly sound coming from a female's mouth.

Ryan Phillippe also uses a fake low voice. I wonder why people do that. It doesn’t sound good either.

R143... Every. Single. Day.

It doesn’t surprise me she’s friends with Andy Cohen (MM). He seems to associate with very questionable people. It’s surprising to me that he’s a Democrat because his character is very Republicany.

Joy is not relevant. She hasn’t got a brain, just a sound track—like one of those dolls with a string in its back.

“Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump no invite me to parties”

I find her so one-note. She doesn’t carefully weigh thoughts, she screeches bumper stickers

I disagree with you 100% R184. She resonates alrighty!

“Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump bad!” “Trump mean“Trump bad!” “Trump mean!”““Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “ “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” mp bad!” “Trump mean!”

You don't need to know anything else!

Meghan...Go Home!

[quote]oy is not relevant. She hasn’t got a brain, just a sound track—like one of those dolls with a string in its back. “Trump bad!” “Trump mean!” “Trump no invite me to parties”

You say it like it a bad thing, it's not. She tells the TRUTH and to Republicans like you, it's fake news.

Jensen Ackles uses a fake low voice too.

[quote] Is the show called “Joy’s View Only”?

Joy was the one being censored, not Megan. It's not Joy's fault you have Fetal Alcohol Syndrome, take that up with your drunken whore mama.

[quote]I'd show her ass the door and I'd make sure it hit it on the way out.

Oh, don't worry. We've got it covered.

I wish we could have got to hear what they were yelling at each other when they turned off the mics.

Meghan's attitude says," I'm so much smarter than these bitches. Why do I have to put up with their stupidity. If it weren't for a check, I'd be out of here. Fucking clowns."

Republicans are such self-righteous cunts, exemplified by this Meghan bitch. Every last one of them.

And R193 just summed up why "The View" is useless at this point -- in one lousy sentence.

Someone needs to tell that Joy bitch, "Threatening isn't doin'"

The View is a training ground for Fox News. She will probably end up getting her own show. ABC owners and producers are REPUBLICANS.

You have to be dumb and bubbly to work up as a woman on ABC News, very sexist. For Fox News, a BITCH, but capable. I think it is clear she is going for the latter.

Joy and Whoopi are there to bring in Normal Americans.

Also, Fox News loves the liberal enemy Bullshit and ABC loves the false equivalence and other errors of logic.

Megan looked like a sour cunt today. Worse than usual.

So many Trumpkins on this thread. Don't y'all have Klan rallies to attend?

They can all go fuck themselves.

Yeah but she's fat R196 that cancels out blonde and soulless in the Fox's hateful fembot program.

I think Miss Don Lemon should replace Joy the next time she threatens to quit.

There's nothing unusual about telling someone like Joy that enough is enough, especially when Joy spewed vitriol when it was so incredibly inappropriate. A man had died. Her startling rant could have waited a week.

I used to be sympathetic as far a Megyn is concerned, but now she has grown tiresome. Her outburst was over the top, even if Joy did turn her commentary into an argument against Trump, instead of keeping it about GHW Bush’s death.

But we have a new breed of Republicans….Gingrich, Lee Atwater (dead) the whole new rich types. Repubs, used to be the party of the purple…that being the party of ‘horse country’ types…not any more. They are not the old Saltonstall, Rockefeller types…

All political parties have internal fights. The Dems were relieved to have Carter, even if he was basically unknown when he ran…some were please that at last the Dems were not dominated by the northeast intelligentsia, if that’s what the Kennedys were considered. As for the Repubs….families such as the Saltonstalls, and Rockefellers were leaders…they were educable, strong defense (though not gun toting like Megyn) small government and limited spending…mostly reasonably agendas .But not now the John Birch Society and former southern segregationists are front and center, in sheep’s clothing …This new breed isn’t that wild about Trump, but his agenda is basically ok for them. They control the senate and he will not be impeached. Again, America is in trouble. Megyn is crass, arrogant and thinks her sh##t doesn’t smell. We’re in trouble….

Megan never stops interrupting Sunny, but most especially Joy with that loud bitchy voice of hers. She is a bully and now thinks she's even more entitled since her father died. Megan isn't interested in having a conversation. She only wants to shot anyone down who doesn't have her point of view. She is a nasty piece of shit and should be fired. Joy said nothing wrong and nothing bad about Bush. Just the opposite, she was trying to point out what a good guy he was compared to Trump and that at one time some Republicans did care about the world and the earth and the non billionaire people on it.

Joy's a fool if she quits. She's the main reason I watch the show. She should not allow Meagan to bully her off the show.

Believe me, Joy’s not going anywhere.

So Kid Rock lost a gig because he called Behar a bitch, and she can turn around and call McCain a bitch?

Kid Rock is a white trash Deplorable. He’s not in the same league as Joy.

keep kickin the idiot pigs ass joy!

YES... R192! She thinks she is all that and a bag of chips (to borrow a 90s expression). Hot shit, indeed... a HUGE turd.

[quote]McCain is NOT representing the Republican/Conservative brand. What she is doing is fighting to control the narrative about Republicans and Conservatives. She despises her co-hosts (save Abbey) and she detests the studio audiences.

Actually, she is R152. Especially, when she willingly admits to representing the conservative view. As far as your party’s “brand,” she reinforces every negative stereotype of a Republican that I can think of. Also, if she hates studio audiences, why the FUCK would she take the job?

[quote]Why does The View still exist? Outside of DL, I've never heard anyone mention it.

Because neither ABC nor Disney give a flying fuck about what you’ve heard or not heard outside of DL. Just a guess tho.

And NOBODY calls McCain out about inserting her dead father into every other conversation. THAT would be the first place I'D go if I were Joy or Sunny.

I don't watch the show and I don't give a hoot about Joy or McCain, but it does seem a bit disingenuous that nearly everyone here is ragging on and on about how fat and unattractive McCain is. Meanwhile, sitting somewhere quite near her is one of the fattest and most physically unattractive women in show business. Why do you not trash Whoopi also for being a fat pig with no self discipline?

I too like Jedidiah Bila, but I am surprised that she is getting so much shine here, From 2006 up until her gig on The View began she practically lived on Fox News.

Keep up, R212. Whoopi isn't an entitled, Republican moron.

Here's exactly what's going on: In a perfect world, when Meghan is her best self, she doesn't respect Joy. When it comes to her other co-hosts, here's her POV: Whoopi is a personal friend who has gravitas that she respects; Abby is an old friend that shares her general mindset; Sunny is a lawyer, who, while politically on the opposite spectrum, is someone who Meghan knows appreciates logic and a solid argument.

Joy is none of these. Joy is a comedian. She's ruled by her emotion and she goes with her gut ('so what, who cares?"). That's what's made her popular and that's what she brings to the show. Meghan, it's clear, values educated POV and logic, not emotion, when it comes to political discourse. On her best day, Meghan's POV is Joy doesn't bring this and it annoys her.

Since Meghan's father died, it's clear this woman is at sea and is still in mourning. She is not her "best self" and has a hair trigger. A dislike of Joy combined with mourning induced mental instability led her to snap. We've all done it in our private lives - she just did it on national TV.

Regardless, Meghan was in the wrong here and should apologize to Joy.

I think that Joy was at McCain’s service. When MEMEghan was blathering on about Trump, though not mentioning him by name, but we all know who MEghan was referring to, Joy didn’t stand up and rudely say that she didn’t want to hear about or talk about Trump. MEghan owes Joy an onair apology.

[quote]Whoopi is a personal friend who has gravitas that she respects

They are not friends, Meghan is starstruck, plain and simple.

[quote]Since Meghan's father died, it's clear this woman is at sea and is still in mourning.

Yes, it must be tough to be the only person in the world to lose a parent.

[quote] Joy is none of these. Joy is a comedian. She's ruled by her emotion and she goes with her gut ('so what, who cares?").

Oh, what bullshit. Another Republican talking point that should've been destroyed a long time ago, "Liberals are too emotionally to argue with facts and logic." What Meghan did to Joy was uncalled, and it was SHE who was too emotionally and fragile whenever someone is critical of her beloved Republican Party, and how far to the right they have moved since Bush Sr.

Fuck her. She's an entitled brat who thinks just because of her last name she can shout down those "terrible" liberals who call out her despicable party.

[quote]Since Meghan's father died, it's clear this woman is at sea and is still in mourning. She is not her "best self" and has a hair trigger.

Oh, please. Miss Piggy came to this show triggered. As I wrote earlier, she knows what people think of Republicans and Conservatives. She also knows that a lot of it is true. She feels that she is XENA fighting the world of liberalism. Did you hear how she screamed; "I don't want my grandchildren growing up in a land of socialism!"

So what, she has a few gay friends. She views us like animals in a zoo. And yes, she is star struck re Whoopi Goldberg. But, Whoopi was a favorite of her daddy and this child will be in perpetual mourning over that man for the rest of her life.

R216 Meghan is TOTALLY starstruck over Whoopi, it's hilarious. You can see it in her face. She always wants to say something nasty but just contorts herself into an empathic pose.

Whoopi is very easy on Meegan, too. Usually she rips other people a new one and doesn't suffer fools. It's probably because she's McCain's daughter (she liked him, even though a repub)... or is laying off because of Meeg's "mourning card" that is constantly pulled out.

R220 Whoopi's a class act.

[QUOTE]Behar's reaction to the current bizarre behavior and criminal thuggery going on in the United States government is worthy of getting depressed, upset and angry about. Behar's reaction is normal. Not reacting to it with any emotion or defending it are abnormal reactions.

Behar and Goldberg never miss an opportunity to trash Trump. IMO, Behar was wrong in this instance.

R221

Funniest thing I've read this am.

Whoopi was friends with John McCain. She mentioned it frequently on the show.

I would be surprised that John McCain asked Whoopi to go easy on his daughter, knowing her temperament. Whoopi is honoring his request.

I *wouldn't* be surprised... damn..

They were acquaintances. It wasn't like they hung out and Netflixed on Saturday nights.

Meghan still a cunt and GWB was a vile evil fuck.

[R212]

Whoopi has an attractive personality and intelligence. That trumps (so to speak) physical unattractiveness. Meghan isn't just fat and physically unattractive. She's lacking everything that could make a person attractive.

They know each other well enough, r227

This was posted in the other thread and I think it needs repeating. How can anyone come for Joy and support this psycho? Especially when the day after this fight she did the EXACT same thing she accused Joy of (comparing HW's presidency to what has happened since) when Scalise was on.

No she wasn't, R222. She basically speaks for the nation and that is why the right-wing hates her. She's loud, brash, and to the point.

She's a typical repub. She/they have their own set of rules....everyone else be damned.

[QUOTE]Meghan isn't just fat and physically unattractive. She's lacking everything that could make a person attractive.

Funny as hell. You mean like Whoopi is easy on the eyes ? Christ, you twisted fucks.

Whoopi when she was Meghan's age...

[R234]

How the hell did you miss the first part of that post to come up with your reply?

You are too stupid for words.

Whoopi has taken her share of criticism here. On the View, she has defended Michael Vick, Roman Polanski, and Bill Cosby. On the show, she frequently tells the audience not to email her because she does not care what they think. In outside interviews, she has plainly said that she is just in it for the paycheck. And that's painfully obvious from watching the show.

She's a great actress and a good stand-up comedian, but she has no business hosting this show. She used to snap at Sunny all the time for no reason. Even when Sunny disagrees with people, she's always polite and respectful.

I don't think it's fair to bring in anyone's personal appearance when criticizing them. People don't bother insulting Whoopi's appearance, because Whoopi doesn't seem to care about her appearance anyway. Appearance is a bit more important for Meghan, because the Republican media likes its female mouthpieces to be blond and "hawt".

Kid Rock didn't lose a gig. It was a parade in Nashville, lol.

R232 She speaks for some of the nation, yes. Certainly you don't think that the majority of The View watchers are cheering her on?

Meghan’s a bratty cunt. Her daddy is dead now and nobody gives a shit what she has to say. She needs to go back to Arizona and wallow in her Krispy Kreme’s.

Is Meghan giving a eulogy at HW’s funeral?

Yes, r241, and it will be all about her father with some Trump shade thrown in.

Whoopi seems like she would be fun to hang out with- that's part of her appeal. Megan is a vile cunt.

Are we sure Meghan isn’t being fed a script? I can’t see a person defending the pos who dissed her father and didn’t offer any kind words when her father died.

R244 She'd rather die than criticise the Repub. party, or even praise the Democrats... but her husband is an EXTREME right wing thug with medieval and racist views. A lot of the talking points on her cue cards come from him, i'm sure.

Mission accomplished - people are talking about this stupid fight and this show. Personally, I now ignore anyone babbling about those fascist cunts in my hearing. If they're directing their crap to me, I act like they're invisible and talk over them.

I won't watch this show again as long as that rude, humorless bitch is defending the stealing of children and treasonous collusion. That's it for me.

We really needed a whole thread to talk about the joy/meghan fight? The official The View10 thread is littered with people talking about the fight.

But yeah, meghan really needs to chill or ABC needs to fire her. There's being provocative, and then there's just being unprofessional. Meghan is definitely very unprofessional. And it's not entertaining to watch.

I really only tune in for Joy, Whoopi, and Sunny. Abby is fine too. But Meghan has to go if she can't bring it down a few notches. I really don't enjoy her on The View.

Mooghan must be stopped before she breeds!

248 posts says it does, r247.

]quote]Are we sure Meghan isn’t being fed a script?

No she thinks she's the head of the "old" Republican Party, she speaks for herself. Elizabeth was fed thru an earpiece. That pissed Rosie off. They all have an earpiece and Elizabeth had Bill "The View Master" Gedde, Walters producing partner. Rosie on her old show was old school and had a producer giving her signals to go to commercial or wrap up as every show since TV was invented had. She did the same when she came to "The View" and refused to wear it to hear Gedde pushing the Republican talking points.

Joy can’t go 10 minutes without mentioning Trump. He’s so far into her brain that at this point he’s the only schtick she has left.

Megan McCain hates Trump. She was just telling Joy to stop with the OCD bs she has. She agrees with Joy about Trump, she just didn't want to hear it, again.

I disagree, R252. She doesn't want to remind people that Trump is a REPUBLICAN and therefore the face of the REPUBLICAN party.

I think we'e somewhat in agreement R253 & we both agree that MM despises Trump as much as Joy does.

If MM despised DJT as much as JB does, she wouldn't fight at every turn when Trump is mentioned.

^^^ wouldn't fight JB

If moogan's father wasn't insulted by trump, of his military service..she wouldn't hate him. She hates what he said about McCain, but not his policies.. and would overlook his behavior, too.

Meghan needs a full on mental breakdown in the middle of a show to redeem herself and save her career. Full on sobbing tears, pulling her hair out, hyperventilating and screaming "MY DADDY'S GONE! MY FATHER IS DEAD!" and then when they cart her off in a strait jacket and it's all over the news we won't be able to pick on her anymore. We'll be cheering for her comeback

She needs a total collapse to start rebuilding

Wait, Meghan’s father died? When did that happen?

Remember when Mariah Carey showed up randomly to the TRL set and started handing out popsicles to the audience members? That's when we knew she needed help and her career started to bounce back. That's what I want for Meghan.

[quote]...even if Joy did turn her commentary into an argument against Trump, instead of keeping it about GHW Bush’s death.

What is the big freaking deal with that? Is it unnatural or inappropriate when discussing someone's death to bring up someone else whose story relates to that person in some way? Where did that stupid rule come from?

I just watched the clip and holy shit, it totally looks like Joy was going to punch Meghan. As they start fading to break, Joy is half way out of her seat leaning over and clearly yelling at Meghan .... Joy could take that fat cunt in a second.

A few days ago, Steve Scalise was a guest and Joy sat out the interview? Was that meant to be a political protest?

[quote] Whoopi's a class act.

As befits someone who got their nickname in honor of her spectacular farts.

When referring to John McCain, I simply say "Meghan's Dad". It's his legacy.

Is it possible for Joy to goad Meghan into a full on cuntdown so she looks like the insane one? I hate people like Meghan who pretend like they're SO reasonable and YOU must be unhinged because you get pissed at what they say, even though they are clearly provoking you.

You can't go to any one day after day on national television and have it go unnoticed. It always works the same way with someone like Meghan McCain; if you don't coddle them at every turn, you are the bully.

Meghan might as well have gotten up, and tried to put a ball-gag on Joy. The View's producers need to reign her in. I can't believe it if they've nothing about her entitled attitude.

Here's how much of a whiny cunt McCain is...

Joy did go over a line there. But McCain is a miserable bitch, devoid of any sense of humor, nasty and dumb. They need to get rid of her and replace her with Ana Navarro.

It's an opinion show, there is no "line," or shouldn't be.

[quote]Joy did go over a line there.

Wait a minute. How in the hell did she go over the line? She spoke about a good piece of legislation that was passed by President Trump. We're all talking about climate change right now and its affects. She points out that this legislation, (and we're in a crises), is being reversed by Trump. What was out of line?

I hate Meghan. She's a fat, entitled republicunt. But for an accident of birth, she'd be working at Wal-Mart and living in a trailer in Kentucky. That she thinks we should care about anything she thinks or says makes me want to punch her in the vagina.

Joy View threatens to quit the Behar!

Megan has an ugly gunt.

I do not think Joy is happy with this arrangement, especially how she is allowed to be treated so poorly.

But, this is a Republican run show and Meagan is the usual Republican Pundit. They cannot defend their policies, (how do you defend Fascism), so they throw up smoke and mirrors with Tantrums. They would love that this show to be a hit with middle of America or southern trump supporters, but more people watch for Joy and Whoppi.

Tactics like this create buzz with the intent toget more viewers. Also, people are hate watching the show now. IF you want the Republicans Tactics and their error of logic to end on this show, write a email. Make it polite and concise, that you enjoy the show for Joy and Whoopi. Also, tell them you do not want False Equivalence and other error of logic. I would also tell them that you want more shows on Climate Change. This was over Joy trying to bring up Environmental Polices and Climate Change.

So sick of bratty fat girl McCain.

You would think Joy, at her ripe old age, would realize that not everyone agrees with her.

True R160. Of course Joy Behar is homophobic, does not like LGBT people, and has been called out for this in the past.

[quote]But, this is a Republican run show

You have completely lost your mind.

[QUOTE]You would think Joy, at her ripe old age, would realize that not everyone agrees with her.

What does that have to do with the cunt saying she doesn't care what Joy says and to shut up?

You know you're a huge cunt when you're kicked off you're father's presidential campaign.

Meghan's entitled mean girl attitude alone makes her very easy to despise.

Don't forget Joy was especially nasty to Lisa Ling, whose intelligence and poise threatened Joy. Joy was nasty to her on the air and behind the scenes. Lisa went on to better projects, especially her series on the National Geographic channel. Could you ever imagine fatass Joy doing working for National Geographic?

Lisa Ling was replaced by Hasselbitch. Let that sink in.

I agree with Joy's opinions, but I think she is a bitch.

I loved be Joy. She was trying to speak about GHWB, and Meghan rudely interrupted her. It doesn’t matter what Meghan wanted, it was Joy’s turn to have her say.

even if Meghan has a point, it gets lost in I DON"T WANT TO HEAR IT: IT DOESN"T MATTER MY FATHER MY FATHER MY FATHER I AM BEING ATTACKED

Meghan is a fat Republican cunt who is full of hate speech. She should be fired.

WE LOVE U JOY GIVE MEGAN TONS OF HELL SHE IS NUTS OID

WHORE HAS THE NERVE TO TELL U TO SHUT UP?????

She is crazy just like Elispabeth

Why does anyone care what these ill-informed yentas have to say about national events?

^That Bernie Bro was honestly worst than Meghan

**worse

I like the humanist guy. Joy is the only person on that show that can debate and will tell the truth. Meghan is insufferable. Ugly on the inside and out, self-righteous, shrill and strident.

Wasn't Meghan on some Fox Show with all women debating? What was she like on that show?

r125, what's a vcr?

Talk radio - Mark Levine had callers trashing Bush because they turned on Trump. No one calls them out.

MEEEEEEghan is vile. A truly nasty person.

Fuck Lisa CunaLing. She can jam that Nat Geo show up her soy sauce smelling gash.

[quote]Are we sure Meghan isn’t being fed a script? I can’t see a person defending the pos who dissed her father and didn’t offer any kind words when her father died.

Whuh? She never defends Trump. She hates him as much as the Dems. Her problem is NOBODY can criticize her party in HER presence. This particular outburst--as well the one a week before--was personal and directed at Behar.

[quote]Joy can’t go 10 minutes without mentioning Trump. He’s so far into her brain that at this point he’s the only schtick she has left.

I agree with most of this BUT he is the POTUS and he’s responsible for 97.5 % of most of the political activity in the country. If they NEVER mentioned Trump, you'd be bitching about that.

Most Republicans are horrible people.

Rebublicans are some of the thinnest skinned people in existance, it's fine for them to kick and scream about liberals and the Dems but the instant you call them out they turn into whiny shitbags.

R202, kid rock never deserved a "career" to begin with

Joy is like the dementia patients I used to work with. No matter the topic ... groceries, cars, shoes, they'd interject the same political rhetoric. The difference is my patients didn't have to read the data off a card. It was just stuck in their brains. I do worry about Joy's inability to carry on a conversation without referencing the blue card. And it's not because she's trying to be accurate because she's frequently not.

Meghan is a spoiled brat. She has a shelf life and I assume it will be at the end of this contract.

Why isn't SNL parody nonsense? Sunny alone is such a tool with her pursed lips and her oddly conservative values. It would be such an easy show to pimp with this current cast of stereotypes.

I wondered why no SNL parody also and on another View thread someone pointed out that Lorne Michaels was friends with John McCain and MeghanBeast interned at SNL. So she gets treated with kid gloves at more than just The View.

[quote]Her problem is NOBODY can criticize her party in HER presence.

BINGO!

I really think MyDadMeghan's mission is to get Joy to quit or explode in a manner that would call for her firing or resignation. This would make MyDadMeghan a hero amongst the repugs, they would be hailing her a HERO like her dad on Fox News, 24/7 coverage of her "mission accomplished" and score for the team. Heck she'd probably get her own show offer on Fox for taking Joy out. I hope it backfires big time and this repulsive, entitled brat is pushed out.

I don't know whether it is all the estrogen or what, but this thread seems to be bringing out the worst in almost all of you.

I have no dog in this hunt. Frankly I don't like anyone on that show. But the way you all are talking one would think that any of the shit they say actually matters. They are a bunch of spoiled entitled women who each wants the most shine. And since so many here hate Meghan MccCain, why are you watching the damn show?

I happened to love this unknown guy named Bill Schultz who was a panelist repping the liberal side on Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld on Fox late night in the 2005-12 era. Eventually I had to stop watching the show because I would get so mad at the other panelists.

But you guys just keep torturing yourselves day after day?? Do you secretly enjoy hate watching MM? I remember my late mother used to feel that way about Rush Limbaugh.

[quote]I agree with most of this BUT he is the POTUS and he’s responsible for 97.5 % of most of the political activity in the country.

Um, no, he isn't. Most "political activity" occurs at the local, not the federal, level.

Well, wasn't that a PR plug, R307?

Look... people are politically aware and like it or not, people's ears tend to perk up whenever issues are being discussed. This is not about entertainment. These issues are about real and actual lives.

Now, we are in a marketing war here. Republicans, (ever since the advent of FOX), have been using any means necessary to brainwash the general populous with their messages. They spend more time on this rather than governing. They live by the Roger Ailes quote; "Don't teach them how to think. You tell them what to think." And, you know what? It's working. There is an alarming portion of this country where if you placed four twigs on the ground and said to them "let's count together" would argue that there aren't four twigs because FOX told them that there were five.

This is the Meghan McCain's world. Oh yes, she has Republican whatevers that she believes in but make no mistake that she is acutely aware about this "battle for souls" war and purposely says things to deflect from and push the Republican propaganda.

What's the Lisa Ling nonsense all about? Never happened. Joy never shit on LL.

[R309]

Yeah, 307 is a shill.

He's defended Bush Sr, and Meghan in earlier posts.

Sure he has no dog in this hunt.

WTF is Whoopi wearing in that clip and why?

R311 I am not a he, and I defended Meaghan?? I don't think so,

I and fully 3/4 of all DL posters have said nice things about GHWB and even Dubya during the days since his death. If you think I am exaggerating, read the funeral thread. There were people saying that they loathed the Bushes at one tie, yet they were in tears watching the eulogies. I would not go that far, but I think he was a decent man.

Are you claiming I am a Republican shill? If you read my posting history you will see that could not be further from the truth. If you wee the person who hates GHWB because of his lack of action during the AIDS crisis, I have empathy for that emotion, but I still say that it was RR who truly screwed the pooch in that regard.

I am and always was a Clinton fan, but I imagine you dislike him as well now that he has revealed that he loved GHWB like the father he never had. And Michelle Obama positively adores Dubya. Things change, and sometimes you rethink the past.

R251

ABSOLUTELY RIGHT !!

God bless you, R289, for linking Mike Figueredo's video. I'm not surprised he doesn't get a lot of attention here, despite being openly gay and on the left--he's considered a "Bernie Bro," and that's more unforgivable at DL than being a Trumpster.

I'm a fan and love his show. (It helps that he's cute, too.)

[quote]he's considered a "Bernie Bro," and that's more unforgivable at DL than being a Trumpster.

Oh, how flippant some of you are... If you don't know the damage that the "Bernie Bro" did then ....

Not trying to derail this thread, but what "damage" has the Bernie Bros done, R316? If you're blaming them for Trump's election, then you need to provide data supporting this claim.

Sometimes I think people who supported Hillary Clinton fail to realize who their allies really are. And being dismissive, accusatory and condescending to that part of the left will not help the Democrats in the long haul if you want them to remain in power.

And thread derailed.

2 days without MEghan. I don’t know what to do with myself.

R317, "what damage" have Bernie bros done? Are you serious? They got Trump elected.

r316 Thanks for proving his argument, fucktard.

Why is Hillary's popularity still in the gutter despite being centuries since the last time Bernie (very deservedly) criticized her?

Maybe it wasn't Bernie who did it, huh? Maybe it was truly shitty things she's said and done - to give a late example, her defense of European xenophobia as something the left should embrace.

Sure, R318. But let's ignore the fact that R291 claiming that Mike Figueredo is worse than Meghan simply because he's a "Bernie Bro." R289 posted a video of someone being critical of Meghan, but it was immediately dismissed because he's a Bernie Sanders supporter.

So, no, sweetie, the derailment did not began with moi.

[quote]Not trying to derail this thread, but what "damage" has the Bernie Bros done, [R316]? If you're blaming them for Trump's election, then you need to provide data supporting this claim.

I'm not doing that. Between your kind and the Trumpsters/Deplorables/ whatever you want to call them (I call all of you stupid idiots), you can find the supporting data and whatever else you need just as quickly as I can. Simply Google: "damage bernie bros have done"

Have a pleasant day

This election it was the "Bernie Bros."

When Obama ran, in the primaries it was "Bros Before Hos."

Then, later iin the same election it was "Party Unity My Ass."

Hmm.

With friends like these, the Democrats don't need enemies like the Republicans.

R322, you sure as shit did derail the thread and you know it too.

The thread isn't derailed, R325. It's just starting to get REAL good. It's far past time that these Republicans, Bernie Bros, and whoever else be called out for who and what t.hey are. Look... I've posted this before and I'll do it again; CALL ME WHATEVER YOUR HEART DESIRES but Republicans/Conservatives/ and donors sympathetic to their mess, own and control the internet. They're like bed bugs. Therefore, let them have this and we Democrats/Progressives/ and the sane and intelligent get on with and about our business.

I have tired of getting into endless debates with those who can readily find the information themselves and/or when you give them the correct and factual information will continue to promote lies and deceit on the internet. I have tired of the many Europeans who feel it is their business to meddle in our nation's politics. Listen... I don't give a fuck about what is happening in your own country. HECK! outside of Queen Lizzy, (I LOVE HER!), I don't even know the names of most of your leaders. You know why? Because it's NOT MY fuckin' business. Therefore, if I can mind my own business, why don't you folks mind your own fuckin' business too! I'm sure you have more than enough activity in your own homeland to keep you busy! So, FUCK OFF!

I have universal healthcare, climate change, immigration, and education, to dedicate my time and energies to--in the USA

So, my advice to others who support moving forward; Leave these Republicans/Conservatives/ and donors sympathetic to their mess, alone. WE'VE GOT MUCH MORE IMPORTANT WORK TO DO!

[quote]Wasn't Meghan on some Fox Show with all women debating? What was she like on that show?

Oh that would be The Republicunts Show.

Was she featured in the HBO movie abouther father's election where Ed Harris played him?

Never become confused! This is the Republican Party and that includes Meghan McCain and especially her husband;

Texas Republican who helped write state party's platform declares himself a white nationalist

These are the Republicans. This is what Meghan doesn't want to talk about or the voter fraud that is going on in NC. Shhhhh.....

In Texas' third largest county, there's a campaign to oust the local GOP's vice-chair because he's Muslim- Shahid Shafi, the vice-chairman of the Tarrant County Republican Party, has been accused, without evidence, of supporting Sharia law and being affiliated with terrorist groups.

[quote]Fuck Lisa CunaLing. She can jam that Nat Geo show up her soy sauce smelling gash.

What do you have against Lisa Ling?

[quote]What's the Lisa Ling nonsense all about? Never happened. Joy never shit on LL.

BULL. SHIT. ...and how the hell do you know? I do know.

so what, who cares?

No one would watch these shows if there wasn't a few cat fights every week.

Yes Meghan! Let's talk about Republicans!

Facebook bans users from saying if they’re a ‘top’ or ‘bottom’

[R334]

It appears FB is bringing back the Victorian Age.

Everything pertaining to sex is being banned.

Women posting on FB have to wear dresses to cover their ankles!

"WHO IS THAT ? ? ?," shrieked Joy as she eyed an unfamiliar redhead sitting in her seat up on the podium.

"THAT'S YOUR REPLACEMENT CUNT," smiled Meghan sweetly.

But, this isn't the work of FaceBook. The all the Alliance Defending Freedom group which is VERY anti-LGBT and VERY well funded by.... REPUBLICANS, or it's donor base which is very sympathetic to them. Who did Mitch McConnell put as head and then suggest that Trump hire to head the Religious Freedom Commission? Why Tony Perkins! These people are anti-gay and are White supremacists. They are everywhere and they are infiltrating our government. Look at what Republican legislators in a few States are trying to do! They're trying to strip the power from duly elected people and make sure that what they have done will be written in stone.

That's why I say we can't waste our time with these people. They need to be IDENTIFIED and then STOMPED out! Republicans are truly attacking our Democracy.

Oh! And, I can assure you that the members of the Alliance Defending Freedom are not voting Democratic. So, it's important that Joy bring these subjects up over and over again. Donald Trump says that he wants clean water and clean air. Well how is that possible if you're reversing legislation that has made possible the cleaner environment that we enjoy today back to the levels that they were before we had this cleaner water and air?

Republicans want to keep people stupid and keep their minds occupied upon other things. We're not falling for it. So Bernie Bros, if your old decrepit guy wants to build up his ego and run again, then make no mistake that I will be out there going after him, (and you), forcefully and aggressively. My first question; Why after 40 something years you haven't got shit done?

R284, when the show started, Lisa Ling was supposed to be the conservative, if you can believe it. There's no way she's a Republican. What's conservative about her, the way she dresses? Of course the show wasn't nearly as political as it is now, but it was being criticized for being too liberal. So they had to bring in a real conservative

R328, I just saw it again a few days ago, and no, Meghan's not it at all. I didn't bother to see it for a year or two because I thought it'd go to soft on Palin, it doesn't. She's made out to be the airhead she truly is. She'd pout like a child whenever they tried to get her to rehearse for interviews. Would just sit there and say nothing. The Couric interview was supposed to be softball because Katie was friendly with John McCain, but Palin refused to prepare for it at all.

[quote]I just saw it again a few days ago, and no, Meghan's not it at all.

Maybe that's why she's so bitter.

Meghan's not in it because she was kicked off the campaign early on.

Game Change / McCain.

Meghan whined today that the news media have written stories alleging she is a bitch.

IMAGINE!

Spend two years screaming like a banshee on television and telling your colleagues to shut their mouths and suddenly you’re a bitch!

How many toilets has Meghan McCain clogged ?

Everyone is jealous of Meghan. It’s not often that God matches genius, preternatural gorgeousness, sultriness, eloquence and grace in one package and put them together in such a breathtaking package.

That clip was interesting, R344. Meghan (in my opinion), tried to play tough girl but her voice broke a few times and she was about to cry.

They're right about social media BUT social media can also tell the truth too--of which the targeted recipient can clearly recognize because they know that there is some truth to it. Let's be clear... Meghan doesn't want any sympathy. Well, who offered it?

Meghan is a bitch. I never use that word, but after she barked at Behar that “I don’t care what you think!!” and telling her to shut up, and then having the nerve to sit next to her two days later and play victim because the news called her awful—she’s awful. She thinks she is bullied. She is the typical fat little 12 year old bully who grew up to be Donald Trump.

Whoopi is indeed talented and because of this she is well-connected. She never fails to pump-up people or guests who are about to appear in a show or whatever. She has become part of that elite , moneyed entertainment crowd....At times I find her promotion of this tiresome, but I understand .it. Perhaps that's why she is somewhat tempered when it comes tot the right-wing guests and panelists.

When she presents commentary about being put upon by the adoring public....wanting to talk with her in public places etc her objections fall on my deaf ears...she recently explained why she uses private planes because "you all always come up and talk to me." My feeling is that this comes with the territory….celebs get enormous bonuses and accolades, even more than the president of the US, so I'm not sympathetic to her beef about the lack of privacy....celebs and preforming artists insist on opening new markets and coming into our living rooms...but they become alarmed and annoyed when the viewing audience, correctly or incorrectly, assume they can have access to and say what they please to ...this false sense of community Pop culture and TV have created this and the false sense of intimacy nd friendship celebs complain about.

Clearly MeghaBeast is following the example of her orange leader and his ilk and refusing to apologize for anything ever.

Whoopi doesn't use private planes, she doesn't even fly, R349. She drives around on a giant tour bus unless she had to fly internationally.

She said the other day that she takes private planes to avoid the public, r351. He plane was grounded for weather which is why she missed Mccain's funeral.

R352 Which episode? I missed it. She's a notorious flightphobe. I know this because I am too. If she's managed to overcome it and takes a private plane I guarantee you it's not because she doesn't want to rub elbows with the unwashed masses, she was probably kidding.

R352 She DOES do the whole "don't ask for my autograph when I'm taking a shit in a public stall" shtick a lot though, which I understand.

Why is megan on there. she is easily the least intelligent or liked. many, like me, avoid the show cause of her phat ass sloppy mouth.

R355 Her father was Jon McCain. The show has mentioned him at least one time during every single episode since he was hired. Someone in the production idolizes him, clearly.

She is a screaming banshee. The View has always been partial to controversy and making its hosts do anything at all to get people talking about the show. Adding Meghan is like slatering the table in nitroglycerine. It’s volatile and bound to blow up when agitated.

ABC boasted bigtime last year that ratings for The View went up after adding Meghan. The ratings were up by only one point or something like that, but they still promoted the hell out of it while simultaneously planting gratuitously flattering stories such as this one from the AP last spring (same time as ratings announcements, and when viewers were demanding that her contract not be renewed). I dare you to read it and not gag.

Ultimately, it’s got to be one or all of these: ABC attributes higher ratings to her being on the show; ABC/producers know The View is regarded as a liberal panel (the enemy to Republicans!), and they know that half the potential audience is Republican and so they love having a megabitch whose one voice is louder than three others’ voices; her family’s money or connections somehow are bringing money to the show or to those involved with the production.

This much is clear: She is not there because she is a professional journalist, political analyst, or a professional anything. She’s on The View for the same reason Ivanka has a desk in the West Wing.

Meghan was/is on the national board of directors of GLAAD. Shows you what a shit show these LGBT organizations have become.

R357 I see a press release from 2014 announcing that (sick), but she isn’t listed among current board members on their website. Is she current?

That’s enough to make me never support GLAAD again.

I see your point, R357. But, for a moment, let's look at this as an innocent appointment. GLAAD did not want to be pigeon-holed as just another left-wing whatever and would be able to reach out to Republican gays ie Log Cabin Republicans, (or Republicans who support gays), while McCain could show how tolerant the right-wing/Republicans are of gays and that it is okay to be gay and Republican.

R359 McCain always interjects pro-LGBT comments into her rants on The View—but she does it by insisting (every time) that Clay Aiken is her friend, that she was for gay marriage even though her father wasn’t, and that she—she she she. It’s only about her, never about people’s civil rights.

And then she goes on to undermine everything she claims about supporting LGBT people by gushing over people like Steve Scalise and other vehemently anti-gay Republican and refusing to acknowledge the conflict. She uses a pro-LGBT claim as a shield to deflect from her support of abusive people and policies.

And Meghan McCain is a halfwit who has no thoughts if they aren’t written on index cards. I can’t imagine her serving competently on any board.

Oh! I didn't mean to imply that it has worked out R360. In my opinion, she just looks at us as many others do. We're just specimens in a zoo to be ogled at. Or, we're just part of her chic conversation among the elite; "I have a gay friend."

You know we're a "must have"....

Below is from her Wikipedia page. Two things stand out to me: First, in her announcement about how pro-gay she is, she says “I love to wear black,” and I have no fucking idea what that has to do with anything.

Second, and more importantly, do you notice anything about what she says and does for LGBT people? (Hint: IT IS ALL ABOUT HER. Only her. She says, “I am ____; I am _____; I am _____.” And then she co-hosted an event (she was the host—eg, she was the star), and she posed for a NoH8 photo—eg, a picture *of her* that she got to spread around). Mother Theresa this woman is not. GLAAD gave her an award (= about her!) in 2014 apparently in exchange for her joining their board in 2014. I am not impressed.

“McCain has championed gay rights, and she has commented that the cause of the gay community for equality is "one of the ones closest to my heart." In this way, she spoke at the Log Cabin Republicans convention in April 2009,[12] describing her cultural and political perspectives with the declaration: "I am concerned about the environment. I love to wear black. I think government is best when it stays out of people's lives and business as much as possible. I love punk rock. I believe in a strong national defense. I have a tattoo. I believe government should always be efficient and accountable. I have lots of gay friends. And, yes, I am a Republican."[18] She supports same-sex marriage and gay adoption.[12] In June 2009 McCain posed for the NOH8 Campaign, a celebrity photo project that protests California's Proposition 8 constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage, which her mother Cindy also posed for.[19] She also co-hosted GLAAD's Concert for Love and Acceptance in Nashville in 2015.[21]”

R360 Absolutely right. She's a hypocrite and doesn't actually give a toss about "the gays" if it means criticizing her anti-gay friends and party members.

R359 Gay Republicans deserve to be put in the concentration camps the extremist fringe of their party want to build for them while the mainstream majority of the party say nothing as they're boarding the trains. There is no such thing as a "pro-gay Republican." We're momentary props for them to hide their attacks other minorities.

Sorry, the concentration camp bit was too far, but really-- these people are cretins. I have less respect for Gay Republicans than even the most vicious homophobes. They're soulless.

R362 I think she just did not become the Republican Fox News rock star she expected to become and so she pimped herself out to other avenues of securing attention and paid speaking gigs for herself—and GLAAD bit when others didn’t, and so she saw it as an opportunity for work and attention. Her father’s last gesture was to get her a job on The View and not fuck it up because he knew she is not good at anything and this was an opportunity to pocket some money, and he has to have had some kind of guarantee from someone behind the scenes that his daughter would be taken care of for as long as possible. Everyone here complains that she brings up her father every day, but no one seems to notice that it isn’t just her. The cohosts bring up McCain just as often as his daughters do, and so do guests. She is just sitting there as a totem that draws his name into every conversation. The Republicans have moved on from McCain, but The View continues to exalt him as if he deserves sainthood.

Meghan is a GAINO.

I feel relatively sure that someone in the background (probably not associated with the show) is feeding Meghan's current smart mouth attitude on the show. She's not smart enough or brave enough to come up with a campaign to argue with the others on that show. Someone is telling her exactly what to say, when to say it, and how mean and nasty to get. You can see it every time just before she opens her dumb mouth to start her shirt. The look on her face is "oh good, now I get to say what they told me to say the next time these bitches got too full of themselves". All she ends up doing is making herself look like an amateur because she always gets slapped down immediately and she then just sits there and sulks because what her friends told her to do didn't work. Yet she comes back day after day doing the same thing.

Even before her father died, MM just seems like a very unhappy person. She sits hunched, hiding her hands and just states her view with a cold dead expression. She laughs like someone who is doing a bad impression of laughter. I really don't think she knows who she is, or what she believes. MM is immature, you can tell by the way she defends herself. I really think it causes her a lot of psychological distress for her party to be citicised. And Abby is just delusional to the point of being psychotic in her denials.

Well, she dresses nice... for a plus sized girl.

R368 I see an entirely different human being than what you see. I am certain her words are her words. She is far too passionate and volatile for the words she screams not to be her own words. And it’s not only words: people have noted how red she turns, even that she breaks out in hives on her neck and chest when she works herself into rages. I really think you are giving her way too much credit, and that the reality is far simpler than any conspiracy theory of her relaying someone else’s beliefs. I am sure that she is an adult brat. Her temper tantrums are her temper tantrums. She sees politics as a game of win or lose and she is a sore loser—she is no deeper than that. She sees discussions on the show as games of win or lose and she is a sore loser so she breaks out and screeches and calls people names and tells them to shut up. No deeper than that. She knows that viewers see her as an ignorant fat slut and she is self conscious about it and it contributes to her anxiety, which contributes to her rages. She is an alcoholic and that contributes to her uncontrolled behavior. She’s no one’s puppet. She’s just a spoiled gluttonous, greedy, selfish, wrathful, jealous adult girl who wanted to marry her daddy and now he is dead and she knows her dream will never come true.

The only reason Meghan is a Republican is because her father was a Republican. She doesn't have the intelligence or the maturity to form her own ideology on anything. She's a born follower, never a leader.

[quote]I am certain her words are her words.

They all say the same thing. All of them.

R369 I have been thinking Abby isn’t so bad and is a pretty boring, moderate conservative, especially considering that she is Mormon. But the other day when she exploded—wow! She really showed her true colors when she basically called all of her colleagues idiots and said they have no right to be commenting so ignorantly on diplomatic matters and misinforming the public. It was a whole other personality that she has concealed very well all season.

R372 She’s also Republican because she likes to murder living creatures with her guns. Don’t forget that. I would bet $1,000 she has masturbated with a gun shaft if there were any way to prove it.

[quote]She sees politics as a game of win or lose and she is a sore loser

Well, that's the entire Republican party. Look at the voter fraud and Republican legislators trying to strip away power from duly elected Democrats.

R376 Right. But again, I said that to point out that I think she is solely representing herself (now under the influence of a Nazi husband) and not carrying out someone’s orders. Yes, she reads GOP talking points every day, but she believes them. She just wants to win everything. She believes the point of her sitting among that panel is to win, to dominate them. She will not let it go, even when producers are yelling into earpieces and Whoopi is trying to throw to commercial, she keeps going. She pathologically has to “win” everything.

[quote]She really showed her true colors when she basically called all of her colleagues idiots and said they have no right to be commenting so ignorantly on diplomatic matters and misinforming the public.

MMPH! I'd like to see that clip! She just seems so even.

I like Abby too. But, I imagine that table is hard. I REALLY liked Jed but she had no name recognition. I loved Sarah but she had to fight to get a word in and that just seemed to go against her nature. Anyone else remember Candace Bure? I don't either. She barely uttered a word. BUT.... bringing on Anna Navarro just might be the right mix.

[quote]She believes the point of her sitting among that panel is to win, to dominate them.

Ohhhh, I soooo agree! I posted something similar up thread. Meghan feels that she is leading and carrying the banner of the Republican/Conservative whatever mess.

R378 Go to around 3:20, when she begins “I would love for this table—NOT MEGHAN!—to...”

THANKS, R380! That was exciting. I've never seen Abby that animated.

R381 Given that she has lived abroad while her father served as an ambassador, I actually believe she is frustrated by hearing uninformed people discuss diplomacy ignorantly. But I don’t really respect that she has sat there closed-mouthed all season and then suddenly blew up and announced herself to be superior and better informed (why not say something sooner?) and called out the women at the table for being ignorant morons, which she did in a very unsubtle way. Politeness is not polite if it makes you bottle up your thoughts only to explode later like a maniac.

R374, I'm pretty sure she left the church...I don't care either way. Think about her household, do you think any of her brothers or husband were virgins before they got married? She probably thought she was going to hell if she wasn't a virgin when she got married. Sexuality and sex are a fundamental feature of being a human being, for pleasure as well as to have kids.

When you are made to feel so dirty, wrong and sinful for something that comes naturally, is it any wonder she turned out such a mess? It's a species of of oppression the same kind of oppression gay people have been made to feel about their sexuality. I wouldn't be surprised if Abby is a lesbian.

Both Abby and MM feel like they are generally being persecuted, and the whole world is against them. So the distort reality in such a way that relieves the psychological distress they feel, because introspection would be far too painful. It's the same with a lot of extreme right-wing people, they lie, misdirect, deny and the worst and most effective thing they do is to accuse you of the very thing they are doing.

Does anybody remember the reunion episode RHONY, where Bethenny basically says that they're trying to rationalise and engage with someone with several psychological and emotional issues, and no amount of discussion would be any use? That is these two women.

If you notice, Joy and Sunny can both laugh at themselves, and materially, have had more deprived upbringings, from. Under-priviliged backgrounds. That's a sign of emotional and mental health. I read somewhere, long ago, that people like Abby and MM are in a constant battle to think well of themselves, that's why they're like that.

R371, You don't know MM, to be a slut. Her being fat has more to do with what she puts in her mouth, and isn't a reason for what comes out.

R383 She represents herself as a slut. She talks about it on the show. She also discussed almost every day last year her love of binge drinking and then complained about people suggesting she has a drinking problem and finally stopped “bragging” about her alcohol tolerance and frequent drunkenness. And recently she bragged that while all the other cohosts watch what they eat, she will indulge in a gigantic pasta entree and then eat dessert when no one else will. All of this is just repeating what she has said herself, and proudly. She is a Lens Dunham-type anti-fat-shaming, anti-slut-shaming, proud drunk. At least when SHE is representing herself. When others repeat what she says about herself, then she gets offended because people are victimizing her. She has bragged many times and has said many times she has no shame about having been promiscuous and drunk when she was young and about being fat now. Why does it offend you when I repeat what she says about herself on air? Why does it make her a victim?

R384

Slut as a term in modern usage means a woman or less often a man who has a lot of sloppy sex with people they do not care for or about. You seem to have confused it with glutton and inebriate.

[quote]She has bragged many times and has said many times she has no shame about having been promiscuous

Who are you talking about? Meghan is one of the most prudish people her age I have ever seen. She steadfastly refuses to talk about sex and has actually said she'd leave the stage over talking bout it. She even had a screeching fit early in her run. I never heard her ever say she was promiscuous. Sloppy drunk, oh yeah she brags proudly about that.

I don't which episode, r353, it was some time in the last two weeks. The discussion was about people approaching her and how she's not always nice about it. She specifically said she takes a private plane because she doesn't want to deal with people while she's dealing with not liking to fly. She also mentioned being approached in bathrooms. .

[R386]

Can you explain this prudish interview the prudish Meghan gave to Playboy declaring "I love Sex!"

Slut!

[quote]Can you explain this prudish interview the prudish Meghan gave to Playboy declaring "I love Sex!"

Her poor father. Imagine; "Yes daddy, I love getting fucked!"

I agree, r374. I thought the Abby outburst was out of character. The weird thing that nobody clarified was they were talking about two different things. Whoopi, Sunny and Joy were talking about the campaign and the two idiots were talking about him in office NOW. He was far from harsh on Putin during the campaign and his early days in office. It's only the last year that he's taken any measurable actions against him.

[quote]She specifically said she takes a private plane because she doesn't want to deal with people while she's dealing with not liking to fly. She also mentioned being approached in bathrooms. .

Yes she said that, but she rarely flies, only if she has to. She does own her own bus.

Meghan has Texas sized dumps

Why is her makeup (MM) so harsh? Don't they have makeup artists?

I think the M/U Dept hates her and also there is probably a lot of hangover and carb bloat covering up to do and there is only so much m/u can do.

Joy quitting her cash cow at The View is about as likely as Rosie & Cher moving to Canada after Trump got elected.

Both of these women are narcissistic cunts on and off camera in their personal lives.

Rosie and Cher are a couple?

R380, Thanks for posting that. I thought Abby was fine, coming out of her shell. I don't think she crossed any lines. For the first time, I liked Ana Navarro, she was concise in her rebuttal. I like Sunny, but Sunny can't do that--be concise like how Ana was. Joy was sitting back, glad that she wasn't involved this time.

Abby needs a personality coach.

Republicans with a gay friend or two are always sanctimonious about how "pro-gay" they are, seemingly completely obvious to how anti-gay the Republican party is. They're just inferior people who have all banded together under the banner "Republican."

Republican Abby said TODAY so far with all the money and time spent there is nothing on collusion with Russia. Of course her father lives in Russia and she clearly has not paid attention or she is spewing propaganda.

Russians interacted with at least 14 Trump associates during the campaign and transition....

[quote]Russians interacted with at least 14 Trump associates during the campaign and transition.

It's hard to know if that is a lot without also knowing how many associates interacted with other European nationalities.

[quote] Russians interacted with at least 14 Trump associates during the campaign and transition..... It's hard to know if that is a lot without also knowing how many associates interacted with other European nationalities.

OK how about ... Russians interacted with at least 14 Trump associates during the campaign and transition. AND THEY ALL LIED ABOUT IT. Do you think they were exchanging Borscht recipes?

I saw Joy in ABC in the decor area. I'm 6'3 and I swear she came up to about my waist. Tiny dynamo that one.

Megan is about a biscuit away from 200 lbs. And she's short.

Megan is a fat whore.

Lol R407

Who would pay her?

... except without the good taste.

Mr. Pinky's Hefty Hideaway. The best thing on this thread.

Anny today: “We all know gay people. They are THE MOST FORGIVING people. They don’t care.”

Who the fuck is she to talk about us like we are some sort of national culture or something? I’m not that forgiving, Abby. And when I do forgive, I surely do not forget. People don’t abuse me and then get a smiling dopey pet gay to play with at the gay park. I’m not a goddamned Yorkshire terrier.

Er, Abby.

[quote]I and fully 3/4 of all DL posters have said nice things about GHWB and even Dubya during the days since his death. If you think I am exaggerating, read the funeral thread. There were people saying that they loathed the Bushes at one tie, yet they were in tears watching the eulogies. I would not go that far, but I think he was a decent man.

So glad that I did not watch any of that crap. I am not one for sanctifying bad or questionable (i.e., their actions, ideologies, etc.) people when they die.
