Not that Rosie or Joy are talented by any stretch of the imagination,but EH is a twit of epic proportions and never had the first bit of talent at anything either..plus she was an arrogant windbag and I would guess that's why the mouthing keeps going on.

Is this really true? Is she that stupid? Does she even know what 'black' means in financial terms?

Joy Behar certainly isn't the brightest bulb in the ceiling, that's for sure.

If this is true, however, Joy has succeeded once again in lowering the bar on her own limited intellect.

Hope everyone here on C/D PoC had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Speaking personally, I'm stuffed fuller than a pair of Michelle Obama's jeans. EARLY start at the gym in the morning!

She said this about 5 years ago. She is a comedian. She left The View a few years ago. Don't ask how I know this given I do not watch The View.

No.

Say whatever you want. If people don't like it, that's too damn bad.

You're not responsible for how other people feel.

If other people are going to let you into their head, then that's on them. They're the ones that need to get pills and therapy, not you. They're the ones that need to take ownership of their "feelings."

This is nothing but the "Politics of Power."

That's why there will never be an end the abortion-thing.

For both sides, it's an issue of power; of money; of attention -- fame, being in the spot-light. Those people are not going to give up their newsletters and Useless Tube videos, and TV/radio appearances, newspaper or magazine interviews, speaking engagements, demonstrations, protests, marches, other organized activity.

And they certainly aren't going to give up the money.

The Pro/Anti-Abortion thing is an Industry.

It's like the "homeless"-thing.

Only in America can someone take "homeless" people and turn them into a $60 Billion industry. And a non-profit one at that.

I'm staying 3-4 blocks from the Homeless Coalition, and when you walk by their offices, you won't see a car older than 2012 or less than $60,000 parked out there.

I mean, really, the figures from 2012 are $90,000 per homeless person per year.

$90,000? Are you kidding me? That's just under twice the median income in the US, and they're still freaking homeless?

The definition of "racism" has been totally perverted.

Racism is the threat of violence, or an act of violence that is perpetrated upon another person or group of people, solely because of their race or ethnicity.

"Black Friday" is not "racist" no matter what that racially bigoted sorry excuse for a female human says.

I guess the Blackbyrds will have to re-name their group and re-title their albums...

People are their own worse enemy. And people need to get over being so damn sensitive.

Things we have said our whole life, now we cannot say., Holiday instead of Christmas, this instead of that, how far will this chit go. People have nothing better to do, then to make things miserable for others.

It is getting ridiculous, but I still say everything I was brought up saying. I refuse to be PC and there is nothing saying I have to be. If some are offended by my words, so be it. They need to lighten up!
