Video: The View reacts to Democratic victory

posted at 11:22 pm on November 8, 2006 by Allahpundit

You didn’t think we were going to let today pass without this, did you?

I have but one question:

The best show on television today? Or the best show on television ever?

The gag at the beginning is cute. And that Joy — she’s such a card.

I can’t even bring myself to watch 3 Cows and a Hottie today.

p0s3r on November 8, 2006 at 11:27 PM

I really didn’t need to see that.

mesablue on November 8, 2006 at 11:29 PM

Wow, Liz wasn’t able to speak until spoken to.

Ian on November 8, 2006 at 11:29 PM

Pathetic. I wish I hadn’t of watched right before bed. Maybe some Maalox will prevent indigestion.

I’m really over this election thing. Time to move on. I can’t see Republicans wanting to recount votes for the next 2 years. We’re just better than that.

wytammic on November 8, 2006 at 11:36 PM

“For every twenty million you’ve got you got to give ten percent away”???

Alex K on November 8, 2006 at 11:37 PM

Elizabeth what’s-her-name is really cute.

Alex K on November 8, 2006 at 11:38 PM

How can you do this to yourself, Allahpundit? Why??

Joshua P. Allem on November 8, 2006 at 11:39 PM

The opening gag was quite cute. :-)

SouthernGent on November 8, 2006 at 11:41 PM

“The maccaca guy? You know the maccaca, maccaca macca guy?”

Yeah, the racist. Let’s put that little statement another way.

“The ni**er guy? You know the ni**er, ni**er nig guy?”

Thank you for demonstrating the aburdity of what was said about Allen.

Wow, Liz wasn’t able to speak until spoken to.

Yeah, kinda like Bush today.

Wow, that a few minutes of my life that I’ll never get back

cool breeze on November 8, 2006 at 11:56 PM

That was nothing. The best is yet to come, and come, and it will keep on comming for the next 2 years.

DannoJyd on November 8, 2006 at 11:59 PM

what’s rosie so happy about? several states just made it impossible for her to ever get married.

paranoid on November 8, 2006 at 11:59 PM

Now they can get back to saving the world for Islamists.

At least, that’s what the neoHitlers in Iran, Syria, Hamas and Co. are thinking.

Good Lt on November 9, 2006 at 12:00 AM

I guess I missed the two-thirds overthrow clause in the Constitution.

I demand Joy resign for blantently using racial slurs on broadcast television, not once but four times.

Enoxo on November 9, 2006 at 12:15 AM

What? Not resigning because it’s not a racial slur? Gee.

Enoxo on November 9, 2006 at 12:17 AM

paranoid, I guess you didn’t get the message. The courts are sure to overturn those ballot initiatives.

DannoJyd on November 9, 2006 at 12:17 AM

So, in the not-to-distant future, as I’m watching Fox News’ coverage of a mushroom cloud rising over an American city, and reporting of an Iranian surrender demand, I’ll look back on this day and say to myself “sure, it was time for a change.”

The Ugly American on November 9, 2006 at 12:21 AM

danno – state courts are going to rule that the constitutional amendment is unconstitutional?

paranoid on November 9, 2006 at 12:22 AM

i’m willing to bet that the courts will do that

Starblazer on November 9, 2006 at 12:24 AM

^ clarification: ‘state courts are going to rule that the amendments to state constitutions are unconstitutional?’

paranoid on November 9, 2006 at 12:24 AM

well, according to the liberal judges that will probably say that it’s uncostitutional because “you’re taking away the right to get married even though marriage is defined as one man & one woman and it’s not fair to those who are not heterosexual, because everyone has a right to get married & we don’t care if we undermine the tradition of marriage” that’s how i see it anyway

Starblazer on November 9, 2006 at 12:28 AM

star – you don’t find a logical problem with ruling a constitution unconstitutional?

paranoid on November 9, 2006 at 12:32 AM

Where’s Baba Wawa?

SilverStar830 on November 9, 2006 at 12:33 AM

Your still a disgusting pig Rosie, no matter who won.

johnnyU on November 9, 2006 at 12:35 AM

Wow, is that show always like that? Is that for real, or is it a parody of a bunch of ditzes sitting around the table conversing. (or is it conversating these days?)

That one on the right in the green – wow, they don’t come any dumber than that.

I had to turn it off, the lights started to dim.

reaganaut on November 9, 2006 at 12:35 AM

I’m SHOCKED–no mention by Rosie that she lost her “bet” with O’Reilly over Lamont.

rotorhead on November 9, 2006 at 12:36 AM

it is a problem, but what i’m saying is what a typical liberal judge will probably say. believe me, i’m totally against gay marriage & it should be defined as 1 man & 1 woman

Starblazer on November 9, 2006 at 12:37 AM

Allahpundit,

How do you stand it. I mean, Are you a glutten for sadistic punishment ? I’d rather watch a mud wrasslin or a
all hog hot dog eating contest.

Texyank on November 9, 2006 at 12:38 AM

If our country watches this $hit we deserve to go down in flames

retired on November 9, 2006 at 12:54 AM

I ain’t heard that much rootin’ and grubbin’ since the hogs got gramma down in the pigpen…sorta had the same look to it too….

serenity on November 9, 2006 at 12:56 AM

Rosie should put her money where her mouth is, but I don’t think she is THAT rich. Go ahead and pay the “rich people” tax you are proposing. There is no law against paying more tax. Put up or shut up, big talker. What a cow.

Mallard T. Drake on November 9, 2006 at 1:05 AM

If our country watches this $hit we deserve to go down in flames…

No matter how messed up this country gets in two years, we’re still the freest country (if memory serves me right). I don’t think we deserve to go down in flames because we are.

Most of my depression is over. It would’ve been nice to at least hold onto the senate, but so long as the Dems don’t mess up the War on Terrorism (and the main battle in Iraq), then we’ll have a better chance of prevailing. I just hope the Dems don’t follow up on their rhetoric and mess up our best chance for victory on the War on Terror; a free and peaceful Iraq (that would cause many Islam-dominated countries to probably realize more than ever that perhaps, just perhaps the evil Zionists aren’t making their lives miserable, but their dictators that rule over them are, and would likely turn on their leaders).

Cutty S. on November 9, 2006 at 1:48 AM

Tune in tomorrow.

jaleach on November 9, 2006 at 2:14 AM

shudder Watching shows like this make me embarrassed to be female. These empty-headed, prattle-tongued, nausea-inducing twits are a powerfully persuasive argument against an entire generation of women’s sufferage. Not only do they regularly prove themselves devoid of any rational thought process or discourse, but also they compound the jarring impact of their inanity by accompanying it with a clashing chorus of arrogantly cacophonous bellowing and braying that, if I were Divine, would send me scrambling for nature’s giant mute button.

Sorry Elizabeth…you may exclude yourself from my purple prose, since you are but a token prop for their mutated melodrama.

SunnyBrook on November 9, 2006 at 2:23 AM

Wow, visions of Elizabeth and SunnyBrook dance in my head,
if only they could be on The Vent instead*

*instead of those View twits, Liz exempted

Im_no_dhimmi on November 9, 2006 at 3:30 AM

I can’t even bring myself to watch 3 Cows and a Hottie today.

p0s3r on November 8, 2006 at 11:27 PM

I don’t watch the view. I am getting an education with Allahpundit posting these video clips.

As a result, I agree with you, “p0x3r.” Not that there are three cows, but I can’t brin myself to watch them (okay, I DID watch them just now. Did THAT count?

Nevertheless, I notice that there is a hottie in that show and she appears to be the conservative. Cute! Very cute.

Which reminds me, what happened to the conservative answer to that scream and talk over one another fest? What happened to that show, which appeared here on hotair.com with the attractive, intelligent women, three conservative women, Mary Katherine Ham, LaShawn Barber, and Michelle Malkin, and the one fairly level headed democrat-liberal woman, Kristen Powers, “The Vent?”

William

William2006 on November 9, 2006 at 4:44 AM

What is also rediculous is that Rosie sounds as though she believes someone could aquire 20 million dollars without already having to surrender 1 million to taxes or some such.

Clever!

I had to reproduce the entire post or it would not sound right.

While reading your artistic renumeration, I noticed the image of three cackling, loud mouths screaching above one another, not allowing anyone to get a word in edgewise. I also realized that, stereotypically, these three more vocal, cacophonous panel members, not the “hottie” as some call her – the young, pretty, conservative one – are most likely typical leftist, liberal claques. Which brings me to the concept of a typical left wing, liberal cause, abortion.

Can you see where I am going with this?

If these women love abortion so much, where would they be if their mother had aborted them?

Would the world be better off without them? Would there be a more intelligent television program on in place of “The View” if these women were never born, thus never sitting in those seats and making fools of themselves?

We would not have a Rosie O’Donnel, or Joy Bihar, or whoever else is on that show shouting and bullying and spewing venom and moonbat uninspired platitudes.

Will they concede that they themselves are very good poster images of the benefits of abortion “If we had been aborted, we would not be here being rude, loud, nasty, and idiotic, and the world would have been a much better place.”

Yeah, more than two can play that “benefits of abortion” game!

Now, if they, and others, support medical experiments on human beings, which is what Human Embryo Stem Cell Research is “for the greater good” paid for by taxpayer money, would they also step forward and volunteer themselves to be used for medical experiments “for the greater good?”

No? They are all for exploiting others, but not for giving of themselves?

I did not think so.

Checkpoint Charlie on November 9, 2006 at 4:56 AM

My wife’s cousin earned enough money from around the year 2002 or so, that he paid more than $3,000,000 (three million dollars) in taxes. The tax rate was about 33 % for that income level around that time, so he earned roughly $10,000,000 (ten million dollars) that year. He worked his but off in order to earn his money. It did not come to him without making great sacrifice and working very hard.

It appears that Rosie, who suggested in that video clip that if you earn $10,000,000 (ten million dollars) you should pay $1,000,000 (one million dollars) in taxes, you are already paying three times that much in federal taxes, or $3,000,000, already.

William

William2006 on November 9, 2006 at 5:06 AM

Oh, but William, I’m sure the gov’t really needed that money. What with all those burdensome priorities such as the study of cow flatulence affecting global warming and all!

Checkpoint Charlie on November 9, 2006 at 5:12 AM

I just threw up a little bit in my mouth.

Sounds like sea sickness to me.

seejanemom on November 9, 2006 at 6:30 AM

Of course Rosies happy. The GLAAD and NAMBLA party is back in charge. I’m surprised there’s not a rainbow flag flying on stage.

roninacreage on November 9, 2006 at 6:55 AM

I like how Liz said she’ll just pick on the 3 of you. It always takes at least 3 liberals to shout down a conservative.

roninacreage on November 9, 2006 at 6:59 AM

Bad Allah! Bad! Why don’t you give us a nice papercut and pour lemon juice in it!

E L Frederick on November 9, 2006 at 7:02 AM

I agree Mallard. someone needs to remind Rosie she can give 10%. It’s called tithing. If that is not her cup of tea (DUH!), then the IRS will gladly except her 10%. As a matter of fact, I think she ought to be forced to back up her words. Think she’ll like that or will she squeal like a stuck pig? Thought so!

JohnnyD on November 9, 2006 at 7:02 AM

William ’06, great idea! Don’t forget Star Parker, Tammy Bruce and Laura Ingraham!

Tony737 on November 9, 2006 at 7:10 AM

I risked watching just in case Elizabeth managed to get something in. Whe came through in the end. I hope she can manage to pick on the others in future shows.

now i need to take another shower. thanks.

stevezilla on November 9, 2006 at 8:07 AM

Re: Rosie’s tax-the-rich extra idea… What is it about percentages that liberals don’t understand? See, if everyone paid a flat percentage (and tax shelters & loopholes were eliminated), “millionaires” would pay more in actual dollars and the poor would pay much less (but anyone with income should still pay something). That’s how percentages work, kids! Learned that in fourth grade.

insomni on November 9, 2006 at 8:51 AM

Thanks to all commentors for saving me from watching this!

Ann on November 9, 2006 at 8:59 AM

Insomni, although liberals eschew faith in lieu of science/math ( allegedly) they do not see the need to really grasp those studies as there will ,in their minds,always be a conservative to do that work for them.I am fairly certain hearing this that Rosie says “whatever” when her accountant opens his mouth.

bbz123 on November 9, 2006 at 9:07 AM

Lawrence on November 9, 2006 at 9:20 AM

JackM on November 9, 2006 at 9:30 AM

…I am fairly certain hearing this that Rosie says “whatever” when her accountant opens his mouth.

Actually, what do you bet that her accountant does what a good accountant does for all his wealthy clients–tries to ensure that she pays the absolute least possible to the feds while still staying within the boundaries of the complex IRS loophole nightmare.

I would also venture to guess that in addition to our taxes, a good many of us HA readers donate far greater percentages of our incomes to charitable causes than does Rodeo Clown Rosie. No bull!

SunnyBrook on November 9, 2006 at 9:38 AM

Rosie is exactly what’s wrong with Hollywood. Sure, go ahead and give all your money away. But what gives you the right to tell me what to do with mine?!?

budorob on November 9, 2006 at 9:49 AM

insomm, the problem is that libs have this idea called ‘progressive’ taxation:

Since poor folks spend a greater proportion of their income on consumption of necessities (things like food, rent, fuel for the car to drive to work), a flat tax is ‘regressive’. The alleged solution to this is to tax higher incomes at higher rates, so that it will be ‘fair’.

This logic ignores the fact that when people use their money to invest rather than consume, it goes to capital expenditures that improve the productivity of workers, thereby generating the gross profits whence higher wages may come. They are so fixated on the ‘unfairness’ of the ‘fortunate’ having more than they do, and on punishing them for that crime, that they don’t know/care that they’re biting the very hand that feeds them.

An honest attempt to resolve the issue can be found in the Fair Tax, which is a retail sales tax, plus a monthly rebate of an amount of money equal to the tax rate on that basic level of necessary spending. The rebate takes away the ‘regressive’ argument completely, and since the tax is levied on purchases, it isn’t possible to tax ‘rich people’ at a different rate.

The Monster on November 9, 2006 at 9:53 AM

what’s rosie so happy about? several states just made it impossible for her to ever get married.

Yeah, it seems that Rosie is in favor of tax cuts afterall but is just too ignorant to realize it.

JackM on November 9, 2006 at 10:09 AM

Hey Rosie!

There is nothing in the IRS Code that prohibits you from giving as much as you want to the Federal Gov’t. So give, GIVE! Even though tax revenues are up, this country could still use your money!!

Troy Rasmussen on November 9, 2006 at 10:11 AM

Yeah, Troy. I always hate it when rich people say “tax me more.” No one’s stopping them from donating to the government now.

Esthier on November 9, 2006 at 10:20 AM

Mr. Hasselback is a LUCKY man.

msipes on November 9, 2006 at 10:23 AM

SunnyBrook on November 9, 2006 at 2:23 AM

I just got fired because I can’t do my job after gouging out my eyes! I guess I should have chopped off my ears first so I wouldn’t ever have to hear that awful squeal again!

Millionaire tax? As a non millionaire I think that is the dumbest “idea” this week. I’m sure next week we’ll get another one from Sir Rosie.

Allah,
Please for the sake of my liver please please please please cut the clips for Elizabeth only shots.

Is it 08 yet?

Sarcasm, Just one more service I offer.

VikingGoneWild on November 9, 2006 at 11:09 AM

The problem with all these rich libs is that they are never taxed to the point where they have to give up something. They make and get kudos for “donations” that really don’t impact their, greedy, self-absorbed lifestyle in any way. Just for once I’d like to see one of those bloated, self anointed idiots give to point that they would have to live like the rest of us. It will never happen because they really don’t mean what they for themselves, just for the rest of us.

bloggless on November 9, 2006 at 11:11 AM

You beat me to it buddy. I was just going to say that. How many times have we heard “maccaca” shows ranging from late night to cable news to network news. I would say it’s safe to assume it’s been said on national well over a thousand times. Probably a few thousand. But if it’s such an offensive racist word, why are they able to get away with saying it? I don’t hear them saying ni**er day in and day out… well, except Robert Byrd.

spmat, you just owned these idiots.

RightWinged on November 9, 2006 at 11:23 AM

CyberCipher on November 9, 2006 at 11:54 AM

Everyone can still get married. There is nothing stopping a gay man from marrying a gay woman (Rosie). Because there can’t possibly be any straight men who would want that duty.
Although maybe Michael Moore and Rosie could get married and decide to move over seas.

SunnyBrook on November 9, 2006 at 7:41 PM

Truth be told, I do not get the Maccaca idea.

What the heck is a Maccaca, or Maccaca? Is it a thing? Is it an adjective?

No, I have not looked it up yet.

I remember hearing that Allan made some statement about Maccaca, and I surmised he did not know that it was supposed to be offensive, or racist.

Leave it to the Democrats-leftists-liberals to turn Maccaca into a big deal! Leave it to Democrats-leftists-liberals to actually be racists in their regular behavior, as they did to black republicans who were attempting to win office in the Senate and the House. That WAS racism, but Dems get a free pass by themselves and by the press.

Yes, there is media bias and filtering, and there is a double standard!
