6. So glad you posted that. I don't watch the View because I
can't stand the stupid blonde. I guess Whoopi has been told not to be aggressive toward her, but she needs it.

3. Ratings are down, she might have to go head to head with Elisabeth to keep her job
Edited on Thu Feb-07-08 10:53 PM by VarnettaTuckpocket
She's been too reserved so far, but this is an election year, and if she doesn't start letting a little fur fly with Elisabeth Hasselbeck, she may be another one year'er like Rosie. Not that Rosie had rating problems, but she clashed with Barbara and the Repug producer.

4. Whoopie rocks!
K & R!

She researched and made her decision based on an issue that is very important to her (and me as well). Good for her!

7. She felt she'd been left high and dry by the Democrats after she was Swiftboated
For that joke, using "bush" as a double entendre, at that Kerry fund-raiser. You probably know about that, but don't mind lying about someone who has (*gasp*) endorsed Hillary over Obama.

8. I Don't Place Stock in Celebrity Endorsements
But to the extent she had made a statement and reversed it in fairness, I commend her.

9. Guess Whoppi hadn't read this article on Hill and Bill outsourcing ...............
PERSONAL FINANCIAL AND POLITICAL TIES TO INDIA

http://graphics8.nytimes.com/packages/pdf/politics/memo1.pdf

The Clintons have reaped significant financial rewards from their relationship with the Indian community, both
in their personal finances and Hillary’s campaign fundraising. Hillary Clinton, who is the co-chair of the
Senate India Caucus, has drawn criticism from anti-offshoring groups for her vocal support of Indian business
and unwillingness to protect American jobs. Bill Clinton has invested tens of thousands of dollars in an Indian
bill payment company, while Hillary Clinton has taken tens of thousands from companies that outsource jobs to
India. Workers who have been laid off in upstate New York might not think that her recent joke that she could
be elected to the Senate seat in Punjab is that funny.

By Mary Baskerville – KANKAKEE DAILY JOURNAL

U.S. Sen. Barack Obama told an enthusiastic crowd of 1,300 in Joliet on Friday that their issues are important to him.

"I especially enjoy coming to Will County because I think this is one of those areas that is really representative of what is best in Illinois," he said. "It's a growing area. It's an area full of working class people."....

Americans are concerned with jobs moving oversees, he said. "We can't stop all of it, but one thing we can do is make sure the tax breaks aren't going to companies that are going oversees. Let's save the tax breaks for companies that are investing right here at home."
