Monday on the "The View" Elisabeth Hasselbeck tried to defend John McCain on the subject of the Keating 5 while attacking Barack Obama over his relationship with Bill Ayers.

"This is not about smears," Hasselbeck insisted, adding moments later, "He [Obama] wants to hide all of his radical connections."

Watch Sherri, Whoopi and Barbara verses Elisabeth on Monday's show. Joy Behar was out.

Elizabeth was so adamant about smearing Obama that she could not even agree with the rest of the panel that nobody should smear anybody else. She opposed the idea of a truce on that. The girl's got issues.

I suppose they have Elisabeth on the View for balance. One of her is equal to four of the others? LOL I never knew Whoopi was so brilliant. Sorry, I can't watch that twit Haselbeck. She's annoying.

Has anyone heard the rumor that McCain is abusive to his wife? I understand he is verbally abusive. I still want to know what REALLY happened to her arm. She had a cast on for weeks. Can't believe an eager voter at a campaign rally shook her hand too hard. (Cmon!?!)

Maybe there is a real human being that plastic facade of Cindy's. I think she should dump the creep and involve herself in charitable work. Her life would be a much happier place. But maybe she likes the image of being a senator's wife. If so, then she has sold her soul for very little.

That is my question. They ALL say the same things. There is not an original thought in one of their brains. Elizabeth must get emails discussing talking points for the day. I'm still wondering how they get all of them to believe what they say? This whole campaign, from the primaries to now , has really pulled the covers off of these radical, arrogant republicans. They are just nuts.

To PALIN and MCCAIN

I am sure that you have associated with people that you were unaware of their dealings, political views, and sexual behavior. These people could have been teachers, a mentor, priests, doctors, lawyers, a neighbor, and/or the milkman.

McCain your life hasn't been all that clean.

Newsflash! OMG! What a travesty! A pathetic airhead has her free speech rights abused!

Of course, when someone is insistent upon spouting utterly false idiocy without any basis in fact, it's an abuse of the free speech rights of all of us if she isn't corrected immediately, and with just as much emphasis as she exhibits. By the same token, FoxSpews abuses the free speech rights of all of us with a steady stream of lies and sleazy fabrications delivered on a daily basis. It absolutely cannot be rationally claimed that spitting out a steady stream of lies does anything other than diminish the value of - and the respect for - the right of free speech.

The right to free speech does not imply that all opinions are either equal or valid. In fact, the opposite is true. Free speech is valuable to a society precisely because some opinions are actually valid while others are utterly worthless; and it's a bit easier to determine the validity or worthlessness of an opinion if everyone is free to speak, up to a point.

Repeating the same garbage ad nauseum, however, with the intent of drowning out more valid opinion, or opinion which happens to be based on fact and truth instead of lies and innuendo, is an unforgivable and very dangerous abuse of free speech to which the Reich wing seems to be pathologically attached.

She just needs to get herself over to FOX, as she fits right in with what they are doing there now. Perhaps she can be Hannity's substitute when he is out.

Back to the basics and fundamental...
Aren't we more concerned of our economy?
If we cannot fix ourselves... how can we be the "power"...
Not Joe 6 pack... but... Obama
I am more and more convinced....
With financial background... I agree with majority of economist endorsing Obama...
Just one thing... COMPLIANCE... if no control, no matter how good the program can be...
it may not work...

GET OUR ECONOMY back... we all will be a happy family...

Both candidates have proven that they are clueless when it comes to the economy by throwing billions of taxpayer dollars at it hoping to fix it. It's not working, so the economy is going to have to fix itself without and in spite of BIG GOVERNMENT. We can only hope that they surround themselves with people who can advise them about economic issues.

Now we have to focus on the character and judgement of these candidates and who has advised them or influenced them in the past.

Do we want someone who was infuenced by Saul Alinsky, Rev Wright, Father Pflegger, William Ayers and the Chicago political machine (vote early and vote often)?

Do we want someone who is advised by Frankin Raines and Jim Johnson , who helped run Fannie Mae and Lehman Bros into the ground?

I know many of you Libs will say yes, and that is a very scary thought.

similar to Monica Crowley but less refined, she has so many fallacious arguments, and her voice makes me shudder, on the other hand, she is pretty cute

Hasselbiatch sounds just like the typical repub talking robot. Preprogrammed to spout nonsense.
