"The View": Week of 11/18/2019

[whydoiwatchtv]

During the conservative woman as president discussion, I thought I heard Joy say “Well, I wouldn’t vote for Sarah Palin.” Missy looked even more pissed. 😂

Oh yes, I was trying to keep track of all of the digs Joy was making at Missy's expense and that was one of them! ❄️

Poor Meggie, she's SO above & disgusted by all that condom & porn talk.  Hissy little bitch.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is something really unsettling about the way she reacts anytime sex is mentioned at the table.

She looked utterly disgusted by Ana's condom joke.  I think she really cannot stand Ana.

On twitter people are saying they should talk about porn more often because it shut her up. 🤣

It's especially weird since one of her books is called "Dirty Sexy Politics".  I mean, that's hardly prudish.  What happened?  It's a good thing she wasn't a host during Barbara Walters' tenure.  She loved talking about sex.

Today we saw Meghan .0 just like when she first arrived...goin' for bear (Joy) and not breaking a smile for anything.  Judgmental Sourpuss!  I hope she continues to not want children.  What a fuddy duddy she is and would be when anything of a sexual nature is even joked about.  And she can't simply ignore the comments, she has to mumble...condom, porn...    I'm old enough to be her grandmother--(and then some!) and I'm stunned by her prudishness at least weekly.

Me too, well maybe not her grandmother, but a grandmother. Maybe it's because I haven't watched in a while, but MMc had me gob-smacked. Totally aside from any political views she was a perfect bitch. Yes, perfect.

Seems to me that if one were to count the R women in the Senate and House and compare that number to those that are D women - the chance that the R's would elect a woman is very slim.

And Abby - borrow Missy's constitution.....Fiona Hill is Bristish born and ineligible to run for POTUS. Good grief.

BTW - Missy no longer mentions she is a political analaysis in her bio on twitter.  Just "Live Free or Die. FuckCancer."

I've gotten a bit frustrated with this show lately with their political discussion. There's so many times where someone (mostly Meghan, but others too) make huge blanket statements about politics that are just completely wrong. I wish they had an actual expert on political science and U.S. history as a host who would correct them, because it's getting increasingly frustrating hearing misstatement after misstatement being said and never corrected. But then again...it's the View, not PBS.  

[deirdra]

I actually have a copy of the Constitution on my desk at the moment as I happen to be downsizing and found it in a box of stuff I brought back from a class trip to DC in 1972.  I may keep it for the nostalgia value; not in my nightstand, however. 

Early in the show Meghan said something as someone "living in Virginia … ".  Does Mrs. Domenech have two abodes that she and the Mister alternate between?  Does she keep a copy of the Constitution on BOTH nightstands?  I doubt Dolly gave her two signed photos.  As usual, Missy has to make every segment about herself.

Ana had some fillers in her face, yuck  talk about puffy.

More fillers, I should have said.  Chipmunk.

Since when?

That makes pretty much no sense whatsoever.  Ana would not do fillers.  She is always talking about being overweight, needing to lose weight.  People who have already filled in faces do not need fillers.

It is truly the only advantage of being overweight!

We really need an eyeroll reaction around here. Meghan's sad attempts to one-up everyone requires it. Do you love America? Meghan loves America more! Did you thank government officials for their service? Not as quickly as Meghan did! How do you feel about the U.S. Constitution, poser? You're not as hard-core as Meghan, who kisses it goodnight every night! Love Dolly Parton? Meghan has a shrine to Dolly in her bedroom and is getting a lock of Dolly's hair as we speak!

As you take a little time to enjoy the view, remember that you will never enjoy it as much as Meghan does.

She is soooo insecure!

Natural fillers!

A few among several versions of something Catherine Deneuve once said - "After a certain age, you have to choose between your fanny and your face."

"At a certain age, you have to choose between your face and your ass"

"Over fifty, it's either your face or your ass".

(Of course, she very likely said this in French.)   

I happened to learn, when I was looking for the quote, that she suffered a mild stroke earlier this month and has been hospitalized since then.  I had no idea.  We hear so little news these days about anything that isn't related to politics.

Meghan said a lot of women voted for Hillary just because she was a woman. That is insulting to women.

It's not insulting if it's true.

Meghan and Abby both wear their biases on their sleeves and it’s a little...I don’t know.

Meghan’s dad was a veteran and POW, so of course veterans can do no wrong. Abby’s dad was an ambassador to China, so everyone from the diplomatic cloth can do no wrong. 

Meghan was right that Sunny was going after a cheap applause line, because that’s all she does. Sunny said Rep. Hurd was complicit by not condemning Trump as if he couldn’t possibly have a different impression of the testimony he’s heard than her and Joy, who have been angling for impeachment since like 12 hours after Trump got elected.

What an idiot.  If she really has a gold framed picture next to her bed, it's of her father, the sainted John McCain.  And she turns it face down whenever she has sex.

Gee, thanks for the picture... that nobody asked for.  The narcissism is hardcore with this one.  Who really gives two fucks?

(But always a big thanks to @ginger90 for keeping us non-twitterers in the loop.)

I think Missy has mental health issues.  There was no reason for her OTT anger and vitriol and defensiveness this morning.

Meghan does act like a brar, but I don't think it's fair to make this comment. She's fully capable of being a rude spoiled person without mental health issues and unless she mentions it we shouldn't assume or say it.

People can have "mental health issues" and function just fine.  They all don't need therapy and/or medication (although it surely can help).  Many of us think Meghan has mental health issues ... that doesn't mean "mental illness."

But, MaggieMae, as soon as Abby learns to spell "Fiona," she can write her in!

[deirdra]

Did she steal that ashtray from the ship named after myfather's' father?  She should have left one of her cigars on it with her gun next to it for the full staging effect.

Please remember to focus on the show and not get off topic politically.

[Bronzedog]

I don't know how Dolly feels, but, if some random person on a talk show (or, actually any random person), told me they had my picture on their nightstand, I'd be creeped the hell out.

[Tammee]

Is she Catholic?  (MM). Im not sure if i ever heard her affiliate with a religion. Im just curious knowing their tenet on birth control.  So is she just as disgusted by other methods of birth control?  AND with all her gay friends, she should understand the importance of condoms.  Yeah theyre not the end all be all, but they help.

She's not Catholic but attended a Catholic girls' prep school (high school) because it has the reputation for the best education in the state.  Her general religious background is Baptist.

I watched the last two shows via YouTube. You all hit the mark, nothing really left to add. I thought they were actually good shows because at least McCain was the only one there I couldn't stand with Whoopi off (not that my dislike for Whoopi could ever compare to my disdain for McCain). I like Abby even though I don't often agree with her. *shrug* And Sunny and Joy weren't holding back in their responses to her as much as when Whoopi was there--although I'm sure we never hear what they'd really say because the producers / executives have restrained everyone for McCain's sake. Joy was hilarious, calling her missy and then a little bitch the next day (even if she said the latter jokingly). The way she acted towards Ana is par for the course. Acting disgusting over a condom joke, like she's some kind of dignified, pure lady. No lady would talk or act the way McCain does.

The thing is that picture of her nightstand looks pretend for the sake of people calling her out for being a liar online. You can look at the frame of the picture of Dolly, and it looks like it's not standing properly because there's not enough room and leaning against the wall behind. She is so pathetic and absurd.

I was stunned when she rudely used the "cheap applause line" not once, but twice.  Way to turn off the audience.   Her hostility is not adding any value to the show and surely there are plenty of other young women who could handle that spot with grace and decorum.

Ditto. Imagine you've been a View fan for many years, are all excited to go to a live show, cheering on a point you agree with, and are pretty much told by one of the hosts she'd wish you'd shut up. Way to be a killjoy Meghan!

Also, her tone when she said "let me speak" was not pretty. I'm glad Sunny told her she spoke a lot. 

And I thought she boasted that she loved sex and is a huge Howard Stern fan to this day. She can't even laugh at a sex joke not directed at her? I get not wanting to get into her own sex life with her family possibly watching the show, but she's become such a little pearl-clutcher when a naughty joke is made by someone she doesn't like.
