I've never heard expressing a little one's age as 1 year, 14 months. Rather I've heard 2 years, 2 months, or even 26 months. I've also never heard that a 9 month pregnancy is a myth. I learned a lot today!

The White House is aglow in Rainbow Colors tonight!!!! Sorry I can't link but just go to the WH facebook.

I'm confused....although I did not see Bethenny eating the lobster - lobster is a shellfish. Am I mistaken? I even googled it, lol.

Just no to Shannon's "I've forgiven but not forgotten....." And Tamra's new founding of religion. My father had N-HL as well. He sailed though the chemo treatments, didn't lose his hair - even drove himself. It was in 1 lung and he did pass 6 years later. Jackie Kennedy Onassis had it as well, in her brain. I like Brook's attitude facing this and actually appreciate Vicki not hovering over him as he fights the battle. I have no use for Meghan but do think Shannon should have not have been so abrasive realizing it was the new gal that called her. Or even given her some tips in the spirit of a new friendship/co-worker while making it clear she worked on her own charities. Great to see Jeana. OTOH I am not feeling this season at all.

Lindsey and Haley have changed their minds regarding the Confederate Battle Flag...... I surfed by in time for the Hurt interview.....Whoopi said "right" 19 times AND I got distracted and missed a few others.

How odd - I seem to remember being taught the Constitution (Bill of Rights) 1st Amendment to be something about Congress should make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or the press, or the right of the people to peacefully assemble, and to petition to the Government for a redress of grievances. So how can there be a War on Christianity Elisabeth....or any form of religion, or even not being religious? Would love to hear F&F tomorrow but fortunately I am on the west coast and sleep well tonight. If I can forget about Graham spouting the same thing hours later on this show.

BTW - whatever happened with Carole and Adam? We haven't seen him in a long time......

I broke down and watched as well. I cannot believe what Graham said.....except it was the same as Fox and Friends this morning. I am stunned they immediately said it was an attack against Christianity......even though we had not yet heard the "reasons" we later heard. They went on to say that pastors and men should be armed and there should be security at all churches as a method of determent. Our Elisabeth said that was a "great point" and kept muttering "absolutely" about how it was an attack on Christianity. And went on to ask if we weren't safe in church then where would we be safe. I'm thinking the mall, movie theater, schools, ......oh wait...... I'll just say watching F&F and The View in one day is not a good thing - for me, anyway.

Could not agree more Stacee......and the tales keep coming. Plus she took scholarships she did not qualify for........but applied for. And also seems to have brought a lot of (meaningless) lawsuits. These are not leadership qualities.

Also - didn't Raven say she looks like a bird?

test Thanks for the tip Roger!

Seems to me that all those at Bethenny's branding summit are well aware she is a ticking time bomb even if she didn't cry at it. Doesn't matter - she is unable to handle motherhood, a divorce, her brands and tv show well at all. ETA - and therapy and relationships as well.

Nope....Bethenny demands special attention.

My father had NHL like Brooks and survived for 6 years......he didn't appear sick at the time, even with the chemo. Drove himself actually, and didn't loose his hair. But the chemo can get you......as it did in his case. But that was years ago....and long after Jackie Kennedy Onassis died from it.....and the medical advancements continue. Actually, I think Vicki is very concerned but not giving up. But it was the first episode and I would have preferred Bravo easing into the drama a little. Plus I could care less what size of boobs Tamra has or her reasons for up/down grading them.

Bethenny, imo, does suck the air and fun out of the room. Why not take the approach now of being a mother and bonding with the women with young children or even being interested in them? Or change the subject? Or giving an ounce of saying something nice to someone - like loving their home or dress or hair. To me BF just takes the crap and dishes out more and doesn't even try to be cordial. And she signed up for this. I actually find Kristen's nail polish colors ugly.

I don't care for Whoopi on any level, and certainly not Nicolle for her politics (including blind love for everything Bush despite her going against some GOP values) nor Rosie and her long winded info about anything, and now Raven. Not like I'm surprised....just a little disappointed.....and happy I can make something else happen during the 10am hour. This panel is not even snark-worthy for me nor their ice cold topics and guests. I see the same guests on other shows and get something more from those interviews. But it's ok....I hung in during Sherri and Jenny and the YEAR OF BW and endless guest co-hosts for years as well and all the disappointments like when Meredith, and RO (twice) and Joy left. Knowledgeable women that were informed. They may have been older women but they were able to find Lisa Ling years ago and have never been able to replace the young woman on the panel with someone like her. It's probably ok as well entering the presidential election soon not to listen to this panel, imo. But then I am still not over Elisabeth asking President Obama "where are the jobs?" when she had her clothing line on QVC that were made in CHINA!!!! Or when she took a call from Hannity before the show one day before the show......and refused to take a call from Chelsea Clinton before the show. I'm sure I'll post now and then and watch clips and read here.....but this is not going to be a regular show for me anymore.

Kristin's husband looked so stupid in that soaked hat indoors all night. The cast is falling all over themselves trying to get time with Bethenny - and B is loving every moment of it. Probably Andy as well. Grow up Bethenny and get your divorce over with.....I simply can't believe she was ever happy with Jason after the first couple of months....and I did watch her spin offs as well. Carole is a real bitch trying to stir up trouble constantly. Can't stand her TH's and little laugh at the end meaning, imo, ....not really, aren't I cute?

Where ever Nicolle grew up I think most people know where Malibu is. Especially at her age now.

Yes....BW did say something cruel to Vargas on the show like....."we all knew"...... ETA - meaning 'us' at ABC, not us the viewers.

This is all I've got on today's show.....other than the very odd sign off. I am sick of Nicole and her Bush love. What I remember most of Barbara Bush were her comments after visiting the Houston Astrodome following Katrina when thousands were sheltered there - They "were underprivileged anyway, so this is working out very well for them." Source is Snopes.com which quotes and states this is true. Mrs Bush...these people went through hell, may have lost loved ones and friends, their homes, and jobs, pets, belongings, and relocated to other states. Her utter lack of compassion stunned me then....and still to this day.

Nevertheless women (and I am one) should not believe they are the sole custodians of their children after a divorce. Seems to me they do need to adapt to the court ordered decisions to make it easier for the child/ren and do have opportunities to revisit the order in time. The focus needs to be on the kid/s and their growing up in non-drama homes. Of course.....if there is not a very valid reason to not do so.....and I don't see one here.

Perhaps it was about 8 years ago when people in their 50's and 60's said they were "orphans" because they had lost both their parents. That fad did not last long since it was so stupid. And didn't Bethenny have a long history (although in boarding schools) with her mother married for a long time to her stepdad?

I haven't been sleeping well with this Duggar crap and this morning turned on Fox (by mistake) on the show right before Fox and Friends.....2 women that resembled Elisabeth hosted and giggled......click. That is the reason I stick to MSNBC but mostly CNN.

That's for sure SometimesBites. And rightfully so.

Wow - the body language article was powerful. I recall Michelle saying Josh with one palm up and "the others" (meaning the girls) with her other palm up. Josh certainly is the golden first born and son in their family and they raised their daughters to tend to all their sons [snip]
