Hassle-n-back!

Posted by JumpyPants

I don't watch The View. There, I said it. But I do watch pieces of it when HuffPost posts them, and they are sometimes kind of mildly sort of a little entertaining. Or they were when Rosie was on, and was getting all up in Elspeth Hasselenhoffback's shiznit.

But the latest one, in which Elisabethany Hasselenbacher waxes hagiographic about the "good man" who is about to leave the White House and retire to a life of drunken mountain-biking/brush-clearing-drive-bys-with-shotgun is truly the most awful clip I've seen of the awfulness that is The View. And why it's so awful is that as Elissabethe gets all misty-eyed and damp about this man who is "so not the caricature we have been fed," not a single person, either at the desk or in the audience, shouts "SHUT THE F*%K UP!"

Also, if you do watch the clip, notice that she has The Crazy Eye.
