Elisabeth Hasselbeck Tries, Fails to Defend Sarah Palin

 

You gotta hand it to Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

On The View today, the resident conservative hot mess at least gave it the ol' college try, attempting to explain why Sarah Palin is qualified to be U.S. President.

Unfortunately, that's more than an ambitious task, it's impossible, as the clip below shows. Too bad she couldn't pull a Tina Fey and ask for a lifeline at the end.

    Elizabeth is just as whinny and stupid as Sarah Palin.
    Get her off The View. I can't stand her voice and personality. She does nothing for the show. She is a complete turn-off.

    Lauren,
    Listen, you Republicans don't deserve a fair fight...I may be going back into the past for this but, I lived through a time when every Republican with a mouth - Phyllis Schlaffly, Robert Dornan, Pat Buchannon, William Dannemyer, et al. were going on Nightline and blaming the gay community for the Aids epidemic...
    You think you people deserve a fair fight? Shut up and eat the mess YOU people have been voting to create, not just for the past 8 years but since Nov. 4th 1980...This economic mess lies at the feet of the rotting fish at the top who cooked it for the coutry - from the REAL free market guru Ronald Reagan, to George Herbert Walker Bush to his son the deficient, deceitful, incompetent out source American jobs at the bidding of Corporate America first and screw the rest of you, George W. Bush - who has failed at everything he ever set his hand to - belongs at YOUR feet...YOU PEOPLE - FROM THE SOCIAL CONSERVATIVES TO THE REAGAN DEMOCRATS are the ones who ordered this pl

    Wow! Emotions are running high and hot....the women of The View should ALL show some courtesy and maturity by TAKING TURNS TO TALK and NOT INTERRUPTING one another.......maybe they need to raise their hands/have their comments timed....seriously.....the all are worse than kindergarteners! The next issue is Elizabeth....it is very hard to take this girl seriously! I have two daughters in their 20's, each of them far more mature, wise and well spoken than this empty headed babe. What is her claim to fame.....that she was a football cheerleader and is married to a football player......I don't think she represents her "age group" very well..and is actually a negative representative if this is what we are to think 20-something year old women in this country are all about. Some of the other panel members may not have any more education, but at least they conduct themselves with some maturity and class......now,...how great is it that we have two political parties and two strong candidat

    Right from the get-go, the only reason I could figure McCain choose Palin, because it surely could not be for her qualifications, was for oil. The Republicans want to drill in Alaska, the last Pristine Frontier, and she is a connection for that, so is her husband. That is it. Look to Bush and his kind, to be behind this, and beware. We are in Iraq because of Oil Interests and Alaska and Palin are a piece of cake in comparison. The old Rich want to become Richer and thus more powerful. They will suck the oil out and leave a mess for future generations, while padding the Oil Companies pockets for years and years and years.
    The only worse pick McCain had was that yellow backed, brown nosed, turncoat, Benedict Arnold, named Joe Liberman, who is still hanging on to McCain like a leeche. What a puke!

    While the Left and Right duke it out, I think it's worth noting that those on the left also were not listening to each other any more than they were listening to Elizabeth. This seems rather typical of both the Left and Right on a much broader scale. As for me, I'm tired and both the Left and Right and think it's time we all move a bit closer to the middle. Whoopie was exactly on target -- NO ONE has the experience to be president until and unless they have done the job because it is an absolutely unique position in our country. So, yes, neither McCain nor Obama have the experience to draw on to be president. Finally, and for what it's worth, I hope we can each vote for the person we think can best be president for the talents our choice bring with them and that this time we won't cast our vote for the one we think would be most interesting to share a BBQ and beer with. If ever we needed the smart guy in charge, this is it. Consequently, I am voting for the smart guy and hope you

    To be completely honest, there isn't a canidate running on the presidential ticket that I am impressed with, much less their chosen VP's. However, when presented with bad choices the best one can do is pick the one they believe would do the least amount of damage. I tend to be non-partisan but I will say this for Bush, lets not forget what he did accomplish: tax cuts for most income brackets, clean up after 9/11 and the ensuing capture, trial, and execution of Saddam Hussein, banned partial birth abortions, signed a bill requiring background checks on all foster and adoptive parents, stopped Clinton's "ergonomic" rules that OSHA was going to implement that would stop all every home business in America, Is working to provide vouchers to low-income students in persistently failing schools to help with costs of attending private schools, Disarmed Libya of its chemical, nuclear and biological WMD's without bribes or bloodshed, Signed the LARGEST nuclear arms reduction in world history with

    Senator McCain has put people like Elisabeth Hasselbeck in an impossible situation with his irresponsible pick of an unqualified and uninformed VP candidate. There were many great GOP women to choose from. All of them accomplished, intelligent and experienced, but instead he chose Sarah Palin. Has anyone from the GOP camp asked why? It is impossible to defend her with logic and so illogical, emotional defense is all that is left.

    For years African Americans were acused of overlooking the faults of other african americans no matter how unqualified or wrong the african american in question might be. Nice to see republican white women doing exactlly what they accused african americans of. I'm sure there are intelligent qualified women who could have been on the republican ticket. Sarah palin is not one of them. By the way we still don't know what her threshold for nuclear weapons use is. She never did answer the question.
