        Nope, no, nada, 'shaking my head back and forth' she can no longer justify her parties issues. All this week she has been trying to explain away why these people are doing what they doing.

          "She once taught me to skin a moose.....humanely"

          I'm still LOL'ing over that one. I always suspected Sarah Palin would enjoy vivisection of mice, frogs, cats, wolves. Forget about a fair fight...

          Actually, from the way Palin even holds a rifle, I doubt she ever shot anything herself, and CERTAINLY has never field dressed a moose. That's just a made up story one of her high school posse said in an interview about the time Palin was named VP candidate.

      Pretty good benchmark for judging the wisdom of Palin's actions if even Hasselbeck won't defend them.

      When ever I hear mention of Palin's "target list" it makes me think of her shooting wolves from a plane.

      Well, bless her little Barbie-Doll heart... I agree with her for once.

      By the way, who was the British lady? Not to be disrespectful, but she sort of reminded me of a Muppet.

            My husband is a Republican - that being said, we don't talk politics in our house. He thinks that Limpy and the Tea Baggers are the worst possible thing for his party.

              It was Limbaugh and the Right Wing that drove me away from the party.

            I totally respect Republicans like that. If they disagree and can tell me why, fine. But all this teabagger "Democrats-want-to-destroy-America" crap is nonsense, and the people who espouse it are either liars or idiots.

      I've always liked Elizabeth, she seems generally sane, even if she did like Sarah Palin.

      I have a lot of distate for Hasselbeck and a lot of stuff she says, but I applaud her for this. But it does say something sad about the state of politics and political discourse when the most high profile Republican to openly speak out about this is a co-host on The View, like the most high profile Republican speaking out about the racism at CPAC being Meghan McCain.

      You lose Hasselbeck, and you lose that big audience of women who lockstep behind the Repubs (and vote against their interests). This crack in the dam is something the Repubs finally should be scared of.

      So, her brain cell finally kicked in? She is one of the people we have to thank for elevating that She-Moose to national prominence. Where was she when Palin was inaugurating the hate-speech age in Aug-Nov 2008?

      Elizabeth is still a moron how she tries to say Universal Health Care cant happen in the US because of the constitution.

      The constitution was written to be an evolving document.
