Elisabeth Hasselbeck has whined her way to the White House.

After complaining on "The View" Tuesday morning that she did not receive her annual invitation to the White House Christmas Party — "Maybe I didn't do enough for the Republican party this year?" she speculated — Elisabeth received an apology and an invitation from the White House:

"Following today's live show, Elisabeth received a call from the The White House, and they both had a great conversation," Karl T. Nilsson, the executive publicity director of The View told Usmagazine.com. "The President's office apologized and explained that she and her husband were indeed invited to the White House for Christmas and were sorry that it did not arrive. It was simply an oversight."

Elisabeth had said she was "miffed" about the oversight, and that she had finally come to agree with her Bush-hating co-host Joy Behar for the day. Joy then demonstrated how she would respond if Bush were on "The View" set that day — by throwing her high heel at him.

Geez.

Well Elizabeth, you could spend that extra time you have on your schedule from NOT getting your coveted White House "invite" by perhaps volunteering at a soup kitchen for the homeless on Christmas.

Whining... it's cheaper than donating to the Boosh Lie-berry.

Perhaps a dim bulb will go off and let Hasselbeck know that the real Republicans have no use for the socially conservative, bible- thumpers

God, she's as annoying as Palin. Aren't her 15 minutes of fame up yet? I remember her on Survivor as a childish little cry-baby. She didn't even win, yet she's more famous than those who have. I can deal with most of these ex-Survivor has-beens, except her. I've had enough.

As long as she wasn't bitter, that's the important thing.

And by the way is she admitting she is just an agent for the GOP agenda?

So that's how people in the White House spend their tax-payer paid incomes: spending weekday mornings watching The View, while Bush political appointees at the SEC watch porn and threaten career government workers with firing for raising red flags about big business. No wonder the economy is going to hell in a handbasket. We've got a bunch of tweens running the government. Thank god that the adults are back in charge after the inauguration.

How immature. You feel entitled -- wherefore I know not -- to an invitation to the White House, whine about it publicly, and get what you want because the White House -- like an exasperated but exhausted parent -- gives into your tantrum? Puh-leez. Get a (real, intellectual) life and get some context.

That kind of coy archness is only cute till you are 17, Elizabeth. Grow up.

It first, I assumed that the White House didn't want such a huge embarrassment as Hasselbeck to show up. But then I remember that Bush would be there. So there goes that theory.

Not only that, Hasselwreck is probably the Republican's biggest cheerleader right now, so Bush probably loves her.

i get nauseous when i inadvertently hear or see her name. that she should be commented on says a lot about tv and the mental giants who care about any of this

She's just awful.

If you need to beg and whine for an invitation to anything, you would be better off just attending a pity party for yourself. The only view I have, is of a blond tool......

"Haven't I done enough for the Republican party?"
Well, if anyone needed proof that she has been nothing but a complete shill this entire time, there it is. This does not strike me as something one would say if they had been speaking their true convictions and opinions this entire time; more like someone who wasn't invited to their workplace's holiday party, but maybe I'm giving her too much credit.

She should have twirled her baton on the campaign trail.

She has no problem with Bushs policies and the deaths he is responsible for but she is really pissed that she didn't get an invite to his party. Maybe it was because they had invited all the whores they needed.

Who does this chick think she is?? I mean she is an ACTRESS! It floors me that she thinks she is "the voice" of the Republican party? Who appointed her! What a big head she has-just crazy. I won't even watch that show-I don't care what most of them think and I don't know why anyone does. Sorry ladies.

so where is my Apology letter for Not Getting Invited to the White House, and my neighbor's letter and her neighbor's letter? I will be here awaiting my Apology Letter. Maybe it will come in the mail tomorrow. Perhaps Everyone here needs a letter. Check your mail everyone..­.

She's not even an actress. She's a nothing. A drama queen, grandstanding as an ex-Survivor has-been. And I guess Palin appointed her as "the voice" of the Republican party when she campaigned with her. Those two made me ill.

Evidently not. They LOST!
