You have GOT to be kidding me, right? Today on The View, Whoopi brought up the subject of Bush’s final press conference he recently gave, and opened the topic up for discussion.
Katrina was brought up, because Bush said there were some things done wrong after Katrina, but he said he felt it would have been disruptive to land in the middle of the evacuations, and Behar asked “disruptive to what?” Well, Joy, knowing you, if Bush HAD landed, taken away local law enforcement resources to watch his caravan, you and your ilk would have been belly-aching about “why did he have to grandstand and hog the spotlight?” or “that was just a photo-op.” You see, Joy, Bush just cannot win with people like you, and he never would have. You would find some fault no matter what his decisions were in that case. Were mistakes made? Hell yeah! But as Elisabeth tries to rightly point out, neither Chocolate City Mayor Ray Nagin nor Gov. Kathleen Blanco have clean hands on that one either, but as usual, Elisabeth didn’t get to finish that point.
Elisabeth again tried to remind them that Bush has done some good things like keep us safe, and even showed a bag that NYC residents got as an emergency bag to pack with essentials in case of another attack, and said we were all very fortunate that they never had to use it. Joy then gets all haughty and flippant, saying ‘well the 9/11 attacks did happen on his watch, and all he did was warn us that we better watch out… he only warned us, that’s all.’
Oh, really Joy? 9/11 did happen on Bush’s watch, but what about your butt-buddy, Clinton? He was doing a broad while Al Qaeda was killing abroad…Americans, that is. Joy’s memory is oh-so-convenient when it comes to remembering history, but that’s just how her kind works.
Then came Joy’s outrage about Bush saying he was “disappointed” that the WMDs weren’t found (which I and many others still insist they were), proclaiming it was that idea behind Bush’s decision to start this “stupid war.”
Elisabeth chimed in and said ‘oh, yeah, you mean the Secretary of State designate, Hillary Clinton, who made the same case for removing Saddam?’ to which Joy demanded “STAY ON THE TOPIC!” Really? Take your own advice, joyless, next time the panel is talking about the price of eggs and you manage to get in a Sarah or Bush jab or two. Stupid bitch!
Then Sherri Shepherd has to chime in to Elisabeth and says she thinks Bush might have gotten more respect if he would have made a visit to New Orleans. Aw, come on, Sherri… we have to go there again?
Finally Barbara weighed in reminding Elisabeth that although she has shown tremendous “loyalty” to Bush, he still has one of the lowest approval ratings of any president, and that Elisabeth was one of that 30% or so. Joy piped up, ‘yeah, there are 3 people who support him’ (paraphrasing).
Joy couldn’t pass up having the final word and brought Rush Limbaugh into the argument, saying that Rush is now out there blaming Barack Obama for President Bush’s messes. Now THAT’S the ultimate irony right there, my friend, considering the entire left has blamed Bush for everything since mankind began, except perhaps chicken pox. Give ‘em time, though, if they get the idea, they’ll find a way to do it.
Lord, why do I have to watch this crap? Oh, yeah… I have a video blog. I just gotta take one for the team, I guess, but DAMN these hens are annoying!
