    Whats funny is that all conservatives think the media has a liberal bias and liberals think the opposite!!! The day that I decided Elisabeth Hasselbeck probably wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer was the day she stated that taking the morning after pill was just as bad as leaving a baby in a dumpster................. My neighbors could probably hear me yelling down the street!!! I couldn't find the remote fast enough... Honestly, regardless of what side of the pro-life/pro-choice argument you are on, I simply do not see how that comparison can be made.... How unbelievably stupid to say such a thing..

    Elizabeth, WHAT are you talking about? This is the first article that I have ever even seen about you, and I read an awful lot of actual "liberal media" - Huffington Post, Crooks and Liars, Daily Kos, etc.
    I don't think that you can blame anyone but yourself for any negative perception that you may enjoy. You freely reveal yourself on television as someone who has a completely closed mind and refuses to entertain any thoughts contrary to her own - if they are, indeed, your own. You perfectly parrot all GOP talking points, so it's hard to take you seriously.
    The day I first formed my opinion of you was the day after the Amish children were slaughtered in their school. You had the presence of mind before the show to look up the NRA talking points and parrot those rather than just take a step back and let people be in their grief and shock. You actually sited statistics. I have rarely been so sickened by someone's insensitivity. Perhaps some of those folks that think you are "witchy" witnessed that performance.

    Don't like her point of view? Turn off your TV!
    Think the article was a fluff piece? Why waste your time reading and commenting?

    I would like to see any of these naysayers try to sound intelligent on a daily basis. You're all sooooooo very smart. I think they should offer a The View aguest spot each day to average viewers who have nothing better to do than to mock Joy, Whoopi, Elisabeth, or Sherri. They may find that just every once in a while they may blunder and say something stupid.

    Are they changing the world? No. If you want that, try C-SPAN.

    Elizabeth, Elizabeth, Elizabeth...

    The idea that our media has a Liberal bias isn't silly, it is just plain absurd, ridiculous and frighteningly ignorant! People don't think you're witchy or whatever else you are blaming on the LIBERAL (LOL!) press, no we think you area hauntingly lacking the facts of life. Please stop parroting the talking points of your revered GOP and research the issues at large so that you can actually learn about how our once great press has forgotten it???s roots and decided to become lazy while depending upon sloppy reporting and taking orders from the corporate owned media that dictates who gets to say what.

    Not even the most well known standard bearers of the right actually believe the liberal bias absurdities anymore???it is time to think for yourself, PLEASE!

    Elizabeth...you are not witchy...just STUPID...over and over and over again...I thought having a Son might
    help you to open your heart to humanity...Son's and Daughters are dying all over the world because of the STUPID beliefs of people like you.

    Elizabeth, your problem is not that you are witchy, but uneducated. You simply spew whatever right wing garbage your husband tells you is fact.

    "It's bizarre. People are, like, she must be witchy. I think it's the liberal bias in the media that I'm the one who's argumentative."
    Of course we are always hearing about this "liberal bias in the media" from, of all people... THOSE PEOPLE IN THE MEDIA! People like Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Bill O'Reilly, Bill Kristol, Norman Podhoretz, Ann Coulter, Charles Krauthammer, Matt Drudge... the list goes on and on... LIBERALS????
    Actually, self-pronounced Trotskyite Irving Kristol, godfather of the neo-con movement and father of William Kristol, co-founder of PNAC and editor of The Weekly Standard" is the person who laid the cornerstone for the neo-con movement of demonizing "liberals" when he wrote that America was being destroyed by "liberty".

    He wrote:

    "Turn the people against their own liberty.

    Convince them that liberty is licentiousness - that liberty undermines piety, leads to crime, drugs, rampant homosexuality, children out of wedlock, and family breakdown.

    And worse of all, LIBERALISM is soft on communism or terrorism - (WHATEVER happens to be the enemy of the moment.)

    And if you can convince the people that liberty undermines their security, then, you will not have to take away their liberty; they will gladly renounce it."

    This philosophy at the core of the neo-conservative movement has led to the highly effective and steady destruction of the civil rights and privacy of Americans, and has frightened our Congressional representives into kow-towing to an administration that has overtly shown it's disdain for law and the U.S. Constitution.

    "If you aren't FOR us, you are AGAINST us!"

    "If you question our motives, you support terrorism!"

    "We NEED to be able to spy on our own citizens... we NEED to be able to ign-ore our own courts... we NEED to be able to re-interpret our laws with "Signing Statements"... in order to make YOU SAFE!"

    Meanwhile, they have cleaned out our Treasury and made Americans some of the most hated people on the planet.

    ...and you are helping them Elizabeth.

    I'm sorry , when it comes to important issues not one of those fine ladies impress me. What they know and speak on amounts to the surface of the issue, isn't it a lot like they've done a little reading and try to fool the public. Politics and sports should be left to the the true idiots of TV, Jay and Dave.
    An example today was Elizabeth arguing the difference between Auto Insurance and Medical Coverage. If that wasn't a waste of TV time then I don't know anything.

    At least, she helps keep the conversation balanced. I enjoy Elizabeth and Whoopi both. I wish all people in the media today could be more civil toward opposing opinions; too many seem to enjoy being as rude as possible to anyone who thinks differently. I enjoy the maturity Whoopi brings to the show, and the youthfulness that Elizabeth adds. Joy is often too abrasive and closed to different ideas; many of her comments are purposefully hurtful. I am not familiar with the other woman yet, but I hope she will add to an intelligent discussion rather than increase the bashing.

    Completely uninteresting interview. Then again, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, what did I expect?
