Just as I thought, Elisabeths story about her field trip with Graces class was not complimentary of her daughter, or how much fun she had with her, but rather a ’shout-out’ to all the ‘people out there who take care of other peoples kids’. Oh…it’s so hard dealing with a few toddlers on a class trip, poor Elisabeth… it must be hard to have to ‘deal’ with a few toddlers when there isn’t two nannies around to do it for you. She should have sent Graces nanny on the trip with her, maybe Elisabeth wouldn’t have been so tired when she had her get together with John and Cindy McCain and Sarah Palin. @@

Can someone provide me with a link to a video of an Obama rally where people are calling McCain/ Palin terrorists, shouting kill them , and off with their heads?
How dare TLB try to make Palin into a victim. She started this whole thing by saying Obama pals around with terrorists. What the heck kind of reaction did she expect to get. Palin isn’t a nice person. A nice person wouldn’t spread the kind of hate that she has spread at her rallies.
Maybe in TLB’s eyes she is a nice person, because they are just a like.
Whoopi needs to realize that the republicans had control of things for 8 years the democrats two. In those 8 years they rubber stamped every hairbrain scheme that Bush had. This mess is not on my shoulders or the other people who voted and protested against Bush. So to say we all had a hand in it is bull!
October 15th, 2008 at 11:21 am
Thank God for the Internet – the difference between this election and the election of Nixon. If the Republicans had it their way, the Internet would be devoid of Political voice. Beware whom you elect, it is time to demand term limits.
Consider:
8 years of Republican President Bush
11 Years of Republican Congress (including Clinton term)
26 years of Republican Senator John McCain
Versus
2 years of Democratic Congress
2 years of Democratic Senator Barack Obama
Here is a Newsweek article on “The Blame Game” http://www.newsweek.com/id/98099
And HuffPo has a great article on the Economic Dishonor Roll – still reading the 327 comments (best information I’ve found).
And a great quote from a blogger challenging a reporter’s claim that no Hate Rallies really exist: “I am sorry Mr. Leo, but like most of the other posters here, I do not agree with you. It appears to me that you are looking at this through the opening of a straw rather than with your eyes wide open.
This is not just a few isolated instances of hate. Repeated TV ads, Fox “News”, The View (Elizabeth H) and rally speeches paint Senator Obama as a terrorist (palling around with terrorists) and statements like: he is not one of us strongly suggest racism, un-Americanism, etc. There are videos taken of people attending these rallies that show them repeating these thoughts. Many people do not readily voice their thoughts in a public manner. Nixon played to the “silent majority” for both of his presidential runs.
Playing on people”s irrational fears during times of significant economic uncertainty, anti-American sentiment world wide, and unrest in nations that already have much violence (Pakistan, Iran, Afghanistan, etc) is like playing with fire and therefore, irresponsible. Racism is not dead. Anything can happen. I don”t think anyone on this blog thinks all conservatives are racist. But it only takes one or a few to do lasting damage. So, we all must be super vigilant. And I propose most on all sides agree with that.” – lostinNJ1

did you catch barbara asking elisabeth if sarah palin is coming on the view? this is a woman who has worked in network news since before elisabeth was born and now she’s looking at her for help in getting the “gets of the moment” (although personally i would only listen to palin for comic relief)as if elisabeth needs anymore ego feeding
October 15th, 2008 at 11:46 am
I caught today’s show late and Miss Prissybritches was blathering on about being with the McCains,etc. Where did she happen to meet up with that group? Did they call to get her advice on things to say at tonite’s debate or what? Maybe they called to get the latest on what Hannitytwit told EH to say. Who knows? The shadow do. Remember that old joke?
October 15th, 2008 at 12:13 pm
The people in that video (#6) get their ‘information’ from email blast from Lush Rimbaugh, World Net Daily, FOX News (aka White House Press Corps), Sh*tty Bitty and the Drudge Report. These sources run unsubstantiated claims and/or are paid big $$ by special interest who have become billionaires under the Republican Regime!
Do not let this crap go unchallenged. The gloves are off – throws the bums out!
The Newsweek link I provided was the wrong one…try this one:
FACTCHECK.ORG: Who Caused the Economic Crisis?
http://www.newsweek.com/id/161936
My NetFlix movies this afternoon are Faith of My Fathers (The John McCain story) and The Manchurian Candidate. I’ll report back any correlations.
Also watched A Mighty Heart – the Daniel Pearl story of an American Journalist’s beheading by REAL terrorists – who retaliated against Bush’s torture of war prisoners. The executioner? A Bin Laden-operative we trained in Afghanistan during Charlie Wilson’s War! Wikipedia Khalid Sheikh Mohammed
October 15th, 2008 at 12:19 pm
I think its great that Whoopi finally showed she had a backbone. She may not have the same political views as other Americans, but she wasn’t going to let self-serving Joy make ridiculous statements in regards to owning the state of the economy. Whoppi is correct, it took more than one man to put the economy where it is. I’m surprised Joy wanted to give Bush that much credit. What was really amusing was when Joy said “well you can’t blame everyone and so…” and so what Joy…pick on one person..spoken like a true coward. Total bully mentality. I find it interesting because she was not well received as a child, and here she is practicing these techniques. Once again, as soon as one of her 3 posse correct her poor behavior (ie: her condesending remark in regards to Sarah Palin’s son going off to war- why the hell couldn’t she just have owned her error and say “I’m sorry I forgot or mis-spoke) - instead she makes a poor joke about McCains age/bedtime.
Does she think people dont look at her and think look who’s calling the kettle black? She is old, fat and stupid. A career in politics….puhlease! She has NO DIPLOMACY!
I’m also getting sick and tired of the whole Barbara Walters Fan Club! All 5 of them compete to see who can make Barbara feel more important. Barbara usually wins.
I thought EH did better today by staying quiet. WG made her case for her today against that old fart Joy who should really get a job sucking farts out of old rump roasts - she definitely has the face for it.
I’ll be glad when the election is over. At that time whoever wins can become the scapegoat for every wrong thing that American Banks, congress, schools etc do. Hope our new president has a couple of steel ones…he’s gonna need em.
October 15th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Meredith,
Thanks a bunch! I was asking the McCain/ Palin supporters to provide me with a link to a video that showed Obama supporters behaving in the same hateful way as the people at the McCain/ Pain rallies. Obama chastised an audience the other day just for booing when he said McCain’s name.
Kelly,
Thank you so much for all of the research you’re doing. I think a lot of people come on here and read, even if they don’t comment. I have a hunch that even some of the women on the View stop by Winnie’s once in awhile. In case they do, Joy you rock! Sherri keep up the good work.
October 15th, 2008 at 12:30 pm
Same bait different day, Stay focused.
October 15th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
Rainlillie:
Do you enjoy watching bad behaviour? Why would anyone want to source a video showing people being hateful? Is that what this election has come to? Entertainment? A night of “Smackdown”. Your comment illustrates what is so ugly about race, age, religion, sex etc…
When someone show you who they are…believe them!
October 15th, 2008 at 12:48 pm
rainlillie #12– Oh I think so too. I worked in Government Communications for 15 years, and I always watched the media, and in my last year, the blogs (although I never posted). I know many reporters, editors, and radio personalities spend as much time reading blogs as we do…they just deny it!!!! Why? Because blogs often attract intelligent people and insiders – making it fertile ground for throwing out ideas and finding the next big scoop. However, a reporter would never share credit, and therefore, they discredit blogs and bloggers alike.
We just happen to also represent the American voter demographic so badly courted this election.
Winnie’s site is the perfect recipe for the perfect occasion.
We are making a difference.
McCain’s new ad depicts Obama supporters as Village People garb-wearing gay guys: http://tpmelectioncentral.talkingpointsmemo.com/2008/10/gop_senators_ad_gay_guys_in_vi.php
October 15th, 2008 at 1:09 pm
Not McCain’s ad - but Republican Sen. Roger Wicker from Mississippi, who is facing a tough challenge from former Gov. Ronnie Musgrove, a Democrat.
Not much of a stretch to think this could have easily been a McCain ad. They only people they’re not bashing these days are the homosexuals. Or are they?
October 15th, 2008 at 1:10 pm
Kelly,
This ad is in poor taste, why would you want to share it? It also pokes at more than the gay community. Is it in American best interest to stir THAT pot? In order to win and election, lets throw that community under the bus? Creating that video is a weak ploy at at creating tension and hard feelings. Shame on the creators…but sharing this on a blog paints the messenger (you) with the same brush.
For months everyone has been imploring the parties to stick to the crucial issues.
Perhaps if we strive to do this the whole process can maintain a small bit of outstanding dignity.
October 15th, 2008 at 1:20 pm
Ednaegan,
Thanks for the kind words.
I find it interesting that yesterday Whoopi started the show introducing the guest host. She advised that because EH was away they needed to bring in a Republican Supporter to even things up. Does that mean that 4 democrat supporters to 1 republican is a fair view point of the American demographic?
Judging by the comments of the ladies that contribute to this blog, they would only approve someone that clearly is a democrat. They could change the name of the show to “My View” and everyone could agree on everything and sit around congratulating themselves on being superior.
BORING!
October 15th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
To Ednaegan..nobody gives a shit if you are male or female.
DonnaJ…I think the name of the show is already named “My View”..after blabber mouth EH. Does she know she is associating with the three biggests terrorists in the campaign.
October 15th, 2008 at 1:45 pm
Hmm, didn’t blogs like this get CNNs Showbiz Tonight to cover Bitsy’s RNC luncheon comments?
No way would Palin come on The View. Joy would want to ask her about AIP, the witch doctor, did Track vandalize buses, etc.

The Moment
Senator McCain. Was this the moment? The epiphany? The realization that stoking the flames of bigotry and fear had come home to roost?
Excellent analysis of the stoking of violence (even if unintentional)

Well articulated.
Kelly & Lajet Meredith and rainlillie;
Thank you for the website clips.
October 15th, 2008 at 1:58 pm
#14. Kelly,
I thought that was the case with the reporters. It’s very interesting. Sometimes it takes the MSM a little longer to report a story that has been on the web for weeks.
#21. Lajet,
I read that, it’s a great read and very true.
October 15th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
#23. You’re welcome!
October 15th, 2008 at 1:59 pm
To Ednaegan and Donna J….thanks goodness there are some openminded people on this sight….You two Rock!!! Trolls on this site ROCK!!!
Oh yes…Huffington and Daily kos is a great place to get your talking points….Very intelligent stuff there….
October 15th, 2008 at 2:12 pm
The View has been the laughing stock on talk radio and many websites last night and today…Joy has not been their favorite! Yesterday she played the race card from the bottom of the deck and her saying Bristol can’t have an abortion because her mother is against it was stepping over the line. I noticed when Whoopi said mistakes can happen and her daughter was only 14 when she got pregnant, Joy didn’t ask Whoopi why her daughter didn’t have an abortion….very interesting! I think BW must be hanging her head that her name is connected to this show.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
She didn’t mention it because Whoopie has already discussed (in previous shows) that she wanted her daughter to have an abortion.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:21 pm
Dear ednaegan, do you not believe in free speech? I do not agree with some of the comments but I respect their right to say them.
If you do not want to hear ‘political one-sided far left banter’, do not read the comments.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:26 pm
#4 Rainlillie–
Whoopi needs to realize that the republicans had control of things for 8 years the democrats two.
Just to correct…… I believe that the Republicans took over congress in 1994, just so it is clear, they held control of congress for 12 years. They had a lot of time to screw up America…. thats why they have done such a good job at it.
and for all you trolls out there…. The republicans won out of fear not good policy… the “chickens have come home to roost” and it will be a long while before the republicans are trusted again.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:27 pm
“I caught today’s show late and Miss Prissybritches was blathering on about being with the McCains,etc. Where did she happen to meet up with that group?”
May,
I’m not sure where they met up. Maybe Winnie will have it in her recap later.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
well said Rev. Wright…what a great person to quote. I’d be a proud AMERICAN!
October 15th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
#5 Kelly–
HEAR HEAR!!
October 15th, 2008 at 2:31 pm
Roger ,
You are correct, they were in control in 1994. Great point.
October 15th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
JaguarJ (#19)
It is not in your parties best interest to bring up the “terrorist” term so loosely. Now you mentioned 3 terrorists…I guess you DONT mean BW, JB & WG? Something we can agree on.
So WHO do you mean? Go ahead, finish off your self-serving comment. Winning at any costs?
How can anyone call foul about the poor taste of the Wicker video, when they are willing to trump it with “terrorist” name calling.
Winning at any cost isn’t what either candidate wants to paint himself as. Whats your position?
October 15th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
#10 DonnaJ–
WG made her case for her today against that old fart Joy who should really get a job sucking farts out of old rump roasts - she definitely has the face for it.
Joy is HOT…. and she wants me.
I have never heard of that job before Donna. How much do u get paid for that talent? Just wondering, how long have you held that job?
October 15th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
My son just showed me this clip about the “new ideas” McCain just unveiled:

#10 DonnaJ
I’ll be glad when the election is over. At that time whoever wins can become the scapegoat for every wrong thing that American Banks, congress, schools etc do. Hope our new president has a couple of steel ones…he’s gonna need em.
So are you gonna actually BLAME George Dubya Bush for the last 8 years??
if you do then Ill consider myself successful by finally finding a republican that blames Dubya for something
October 15th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
to Ednaegan: I did us a real word, shit is a real word.
to DonnaJ: I? used the term terrorists loosely. Where have you been..not watching
the Rep rallies. And you know exactly who I made reference to. You can verbally and psychologically terrorize. HELLO!
October 15th, 2008 at 2:54 pm
#18 DonnaJ
wow Donna…… u sure do need a lot of correcting.
She advised that because EH was away they needed to bring in a Republican Supporter to even things up. Does that mean that 4 democrat supporters to 1 republican is a fair view point of the American demographic?
The way I understand the “demographics” of The View….. Joy dem…. Whoopi leaning dem…. Sherri independent supporting Obama…. Barbara Republican… Elizabeth Republican
seems pretty even
October 15th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
Well Roger,
Lucky you, I’m sure you and the lovely Joy will make a wonderful couple. Enjoy!
As for George Bush, I do hold him accountable for his contribution. But lets be clear here, everyone has had a share in the cause and effect. Last time I checked this was not a dictatorship.
If it makes you sleep easier at night thinking by changing the name of the president is going to make everything better, you go for it. I’m sure Obama is the guy thats going to save your world. And keep that Joy dream alive too, I’m sure you have a better chance of “doing her” then one man solving the American Dream by himself.
Sweet Dreams my friend
October 15th, 2008 at 3:02 pm
#34 Pat–
well said Rev. Wright…what a great person to quote. I’d be a proud AMERICAN!
Actually I was quoting Sean Hannity….. a current American terrorist….if he continues his hate filled broadcasts, the secret service will pay him a visit again.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
Yes JaguarJ,
You brought up the statement. #19.
Sorry, still waiting for you to tell me who the 3 terrorists are. I think America has a right to be safe, and if you’re holding the key…please…save us all!
October 15th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
#43 DonnaJ–
Thanks… Im sure Joy and I will be quite happy some day soon.
Bush hasnt been a dictatorship…. but he sure did try. the first 6 years of his reign, he had a congress that gave him anything he wanted without any oversight. Yes, many democrats voted with him on the war with Iraq. It was quite shameful how he used lies and “shadow” intelligence to justify their war.
There has been many investigations that brought to light the actual lies that Bush/Cheney used to justify their war. Im sure you could find those if u looked. Let me know if u need some help.
George Dubya Bush isnt changing his name…. Dubya is the phonetically way to spell W
October 15th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
OOPs Ednaegan:
Shit is in the American Heritage Dictionary or you can Google it.
In your case it means a “small worthless
amount”.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:11 pm
LOL #43 – There’s a whole lot of stupid in the house today! I’ll send you a pack of red pens Roger.
OK - Republican Congress: From 1995 through 2006, the Republicans were in the majority in both houses of Congress (except for a period of about 18 months when the Democrats had narrow control of the Senate).
October 15th, 2008 at 3:15 pm
I just watched the Nixon biography. After winning the election, in which he called his opponent a communist. After he won, he was asked if he really thought this was true.He stated ‘no, but winning is what’s important, you do anything to win’. So the Repubs started their ‘win at any cost’ campaigns, way back then and haven’t changed. McCain’s a bully. When faced down he will run! He doesn’t have the guts to stand up like a man and run a decent campaign. He started out that way, but when he found that he was losing, he brouight in the Rove/Cheney/Schmidt annialation team and then tried to get a unprepared female barracuda to do his dirty work. Some us of may be gullible and will vote Repub. at any cost, but most of us are smart enough to see through him! Go, Obama!
October 15th, 2008 at 3:17 pm
Roger (or shall we call you STEVE?)
How refreshing, just like you were able to secure from me that I do hold Bush in part accountable for the state of the country, YOU actually make some of the democrats accountable. Not bad at all.
I could really care less about George Bush’s middle name, just as I don’t mind that Obamas first name is not Tom, Dick or Harry. It really is about the man and not name, age, race, etc.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:21 pm
And does the past justify the future Joyce? Ask a horrifying percentage of families located in the middle east the same question and they will say YES!
Move on, do better, set an example for future generations.
If as Americans we continue to do the same old things we will continue to get the same old results.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:23 pm
Also, has anyone else noticed that he treats Cindy very dismissably? I was married to an abuser and his actions speak much louder than his words. I’m curious how Cindy really hurt hurt her arm. It started out as a sore hand from an overly agressive handshake from a reporter and then went to a cast on her whole arm which lasted several weeks. She is only 55 but has a very ‘worn, dragged out’ look about her, in spite of having enough money to take advantage of any and every looks enhancing procedure that’s available.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Joyce–
I dont know a lot about Nixon…. I remember Watergate but I was too young to pay attention. A couple of things I do know about Nixon…. he was more criminal then they let out. Also, he is the one that came out with the change of the insurance industry. Where the insurance companies decide what is covered and making the decision on the profit motive.
I may be mistaken, but I dont think many people that make under $1,000,000 a year will vote FOR republicans, most of those people will be voting AGAINST democrats
A large percentage of those people will be voting republican because they have been told that they would be a bad christian if they vote for democrats
October 15th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
There were 2 president Bush … using the W is one way to differentiate between the 2.
President George H. W. Bush (daddy)
President George W. Bush (child)
Im just trying to be clear for you DonnaJ
October 15th, 2008 at 3:38 pm
Joyce #50 Hear! Hear! My Nixon point exactly!!! This is like Deja Vu all over again – Yogi Berra.
#53 Oh, McCain’s a chauvinistic pig.
“”At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you c*nt.” ―McCain, to his wife, Cindy, after she playfully twirled his hair and said “You’re getting a little thin up there,” as reported in the book The Real McCain by Cliff Schecter.
Source: McCain and Palin In Their Own Words: 25 Laughable Quotes
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/daniel-kurtzman/mccain-and-palin-in-their_b_134730.html
And some more from Palin:
“I’m the mayor, I can do whatever I want until the courts tell me I can’t.’” ―Palin, as quoted by former City Council Member Nick Carney, after he raised objections about the $50,000 she spent renovating the mayor’s office without approval of the city council.
“We grow good people in our small towns, with honesty and sincerity and dignity.” ―Palin, in her speech at the Republican Convention, quoting the fascist right-wing columnist Westbrook Pegler, an avowed racist and anti-Semite who once lamented that Franklin Roosevelt’s would-be assassin hit the wrong man and also expressed his hope that Robert F. Kennedy would be gunned down.
You do realize Sarah, that McCain put your neck on the line as his hate-inciting puppet? You are his Ginny-lipstick-wearing-pig. Your career is over…and you have no one to blame but yourself, your security-risk husband, and your soulmate…John McCain.
October 15th, 2008 at 3:50 pm
Winnie, I missed the show today, really looking forward to the recap; I can usually tell how good the show was based on comments, however, today I’m only seeing individual political comments. Any idea when the recap will be published?
October 15th, 2008 at 4:01 pm
Wow, this has gone way too far! Kelly is clearly over the top. And once again the quotes that she chooses say alot about her character.
One more thing Joyce, I have total empathy for anyone that has been able to escape an abusive marriage. It does not give you the right to qualify someone elses injuries as being directed from a spouse.
I’m sure that the “dismissive” way John speaks to his wife Cindy (not that I’m agreeing with you) is a lot easier for her to take then what Hilary endured when “Billy” decided to use his power/position to “do Monika”.
Based on the theory that you like to live in the past…does this mean that Barrack (also being Democrat) is going to start seducing interns.
History must prevail!
October 15th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
The word out there is that he has already started…Vera Baker…didn’t even have to wait till he was in office.
October 15th, 2008 at 4:47 pm
Ednaegan’s brain has been neutered too.
He/She/It, much like Barbie, cannot express an opinion without rudeness and attacking others.
What’s your address? I’d like us to “talk” in person.
October 15th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Oh. Donna….you don’t want to go there! McCheat came home to a woman that had waited for him for 5 years and proceedeed to cheat with anyone that would cheat with him for the next five years culminating in cheating with Cindy while still living with his wife, buying a marraige license to marry her before his divorce was final and then marrying her 5 weeks later. She made him sign a pre-nup so she doesn’t trust him either. As for my marraige to the abuser, I left him and divorced him 25 years ago, but I can still spot a man who has the potential for abuse a mile away and c##t is a name that abusive men call their wives. Also, word has it that McCain was cheating with a campaign worker most recently. It was squashed up pretty quickly and as usual the Democrats didn’t talk about it. .
October 15th, 2008 at 4:59 pm
Excuse me if I am extra passionate tonight, but I feel I deserve to be heard. I puked my guts out when Elisabeth began to whine about the negative comments Palin has received. What bullshit. And, God Bless Joy. She was the only one who jumped in to say it was Palin who is painting Omaba as a terrorist, evolking comments of kill him, etc. Both Palin and McCain need to be telling their audiences this is not acceptable. However, they are not doing that. That is because both Palin and McCain want the American public to believe all the lies they are telling about Obama. WHAT A SHAME!!!The shame is all on McCain and his team.
October 15th, 2008 at 5:29 pm
#61. Well said. The SS is investigating a threat made against Obama at one of Palin’s rallies.

October 15th, 2008 at 5:37 pm
Sorry bout that last post….. I was just overcome with cheer… thanks again Susan
I just had a realization. I have been trying to figure out why all of these republicans like Palin.
Here is what I have come up with….. Sarah Palin is a very good politician, as a good politician, she says what she needs to say to get elected. Kinda like both Bush and Cheney.
The problem comes because she is a terrible leader. She got elected in Alaska, because she was running against corruption. That isnt leadership. Very few politicians get elected by their people voting against the other side instead of voting for their side.
Ill shut up now and go to the debate party.
have a nice evening

Donnaj & Ednaegan - your comments IMHO are rude and the language vile. Winnie has a great site where we can post comments - one way or the other - you two have resorted to some serious trash talk.
Winnie should be grealy applauded for efforts in maintaining this site for us.
If you don’t like it - then don’t come here.

I can hardly believe the nerve of TLB (The Lame B*tch) saying how graceful Sarah has been even through all of the ’smearing’. Well, maybe now she has an inkling of how most felt when she made a snide remark about Michelle Obama after her visit to the show. Maybe now she has an idea of how I felt when Michelle Obama was referred to as “Obama’s baby mama” and let’s not forget the New Yorker cover. Michelle Obama has endured racism, etc. even before her husband decided to run for office, so I am sure it is nothing new to her. She is not even running for office and is/has been targeted without cause. sarah palin put herself in the position to be called out on her lies, perhaps even ridiculed for her lack of knowledge on quite a few important issues. The VP debate was a joke….for her. She should have told John, “…thanks but no thanks” rather than accept the nomination.
She has the audacity to say he pals around with terrorists, yet she is associated with a group that is known for its hatred of America. McCain’s transition chief (I believe) has ties with Saddam Hussein (sp). (I cannot recall the article at this time). And, as mentioned before, Cindy had an interview with Reader’s Digest and the INTERVIEWER noted that there were subject that were sensitive and OFF TOPIC. Everything they have said about Obama has turned around on them.
God doesn’t like ugly. What you give, you get in return.

The tone of comments on this blog has changed. I no longer watch the show, preferring Winnie’s updates to putting myself through EH’s tirades. But the intent of her blog is not for people to name call and accuse. Discuss the program. Not each other!

Deborah,
Excluding Ednaegan and myself, I challenge you to name 5 other comments made by bloggers that you find offensive. Now keep in mind that these bloggers will be Democrats - but I would just like to know if its the comments that offend you or the fact that someone with a different political view point made them.
If you are going to point out people that are offensive, I wouldnt be painting certain groups with the same brush. Non democrats (if thats what you assume myself and Ednaegan to be)are not all the same. That leads to class distinction. And if you send us back there, we’ll all be unhappily celebrating the 60’s.

Donna J.
Your comment about Joy was in very poor taste. Sounds like something a juvenile would say.
Then you have enough nerve to comment on others in what you think is poor taste?
Disgusting.

majority of you come on this website bagging EH for her immature comments, and then you guys come on here and start fights with everyone.
grow up
i love the view and WINNIE!
