3. I can tell what Whoopi is thinking
"This is gonna be the longest damn contract of my life."

"The View" obviously thinks stupid sells.

After Allison Stewert covered this on Countdown last night, Stewert said that she wish that she had applied for that job. Yeah Allison, I wish that you would have applied for that job, too.

If you could crack it open you would see it is filled with some hard candies and "Rugrats" temporary tattoos.

11. And let me tell you.
It wasn't as bad as they made it out to be (For a game that took a month to produce that is).

Oh. My. God.....


I'm old.

35. For that time, that was about as good as Atari graphics got
I mean, take a look at Atari's football and baseball games for the 2600.

E.T. sucked, no doubt about it, but the graphics were hardly the reason why.

And while your over at Huffington Post, click on the Bill O'Reilly story, or here:

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2007/09/18/watch-bill-oreilly-love_n_64849.html

After that, the world being flat will seem less improbable.

12. 'I never think about it'
Apparently whether or not the world is round doesn't matter when it comes to caring for her child, but she's decided that evolution (which she doesn't accept) is. WTF? Probably what she means is that her church has bothered to teach about creationism but because the roundness/flatness of the earth isn't Biblical or political, they don't mention it.

20. You could tell she was thinkin' -
What did they tell me up at the church? What did they tell me? Oh Dear, what did they tell me?

Church is important to her because it helped her get back with her husband. While she was pregnant her husband had an affair with another woman and made a baby with her also. When Sheppard found out she left him. However, she prayed about it and forgave her husband because her little boy has a half-brother and they all need to just love each other. So she is still with her husband and I think one of the conditions of the reconciliation is that the husband must attend church with her. The reconciliation seemed to coincide with Sheppard getting more work - go figure. Long way of saying she is not very bright.

24. During those 29 seconds of the video clip
I could feel several million of my brain cells shrivel up and fall out of my ears.

Feeling no remorse for never having seen The View... :banghead:

25. To quote Forrest Gump quoting his Mama ...
... STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES.

Good Lord. Makes you almost wish for Debbie Metanopolis back! DEFINITELY makes you wish for Lisa Ling back -- but she's been busy doing great National Geographic specials about women's issues around the world.

30. Goes to show you that in this country having a
functioning brain is not a prerequisite to a lucrative career. Barbara Walters should be ashamed of herself for hiring somebody that dumb for a show in which women are supposed to be able to hold their own in conversation. I thought she jumped the shark with Hasselbeck, but even poor pitiful freeper Elisabeth doesn't come off that stupid.

33. Dumb. She doesn't believe in evolution either, so there is no reason
for her son to ever need any antibiotic other than amoxicillin. After all, if there is no evolution, then there cannot be antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

I can't say that I or most people really spend that much time contemplating the shape of the Earth, but that doesn't mean we don't know it's round(ish). That lady is nuts!

42. to be fair, she's pretty funny, and that's probably why they hired her...
hell, I've met smart people who didn't know England was an island... I bet there are a lot of people who don't even know earth is a planet.... :crazy:


That show used to have good discussion and now all it is, is arguing and polarization. Bet Whoopi (sp?) won't put up with it long.

Edited on Wed Sep-19-07 11:50 AM by SayWhatYo
Could have this been her being funny? It got cut off so maybe? I often times like to argue that the Earth is flat because I find it funny... I just didn't get that impression here.
