Joy Behar to Elizabeth on the View this morning... *snicker*

[Starbucks Anarchist]

1. Burn!

Joy Behar rocks. :hi:

[ScreamingMeemie]

2. I love her...

I love the look of disgusted disbelief on her face whenever Elizabeth opens her mouth to talk politics. I confess...I am a little addicted to the 'Hot topics' segment for that reason. :D :hi:

4. Wa that not the best remark ever?

I was laughing so hard, I scared the puppy.

[ScreamingMeemie]

6. I just love her expressions and then that line...oh my...

:rofl:

[GardeningGal]

3. I saw that and LOVED it.

Elizabeth is pretty clueless sometimes.

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Yes she is...

She's young, and hopefully she'll grow up a little.

5. I've always liked her

I've never really been crazy about the other people on there but she is always funny to me.

[ScreamingMeemie]

8. She's a stitch. She reminds me of one of MrG's aunts.

:hi:

[SeattleGirl]

9. ROFL!

Wish I had seen that one! :rofl:

10. Do we think things because we want to

or because they seem true to us? It may depend on the person and the case. When there are rewards involved, like people who want to believe that tax cuts are a good idea because they want that extra money. But what about when there is no obvious dog in the hunt? Some of the stubborn arguing comes from a core belief - I want to believe that I am intelligent and informed, and even beneath that, I want to believe that I am worthy of respect and affection. Sort of like the Nomad effect. Nomad's prime directive was that everyone who made a mistake must be destroyed. Is that the human prime directive - everyone who makes a mistake must have their ego destroyed? Often that seems to be the theme in arguments or discussions - you are not only wrong, you are contemptible for being so.
