Barbara Walters & John McCain

What’s with all this “respect” we’re demanded to give the republicans. I don’t see any respect given to Obama or his family.

Walters just made a fool of herself.

Walters is upset Palin didn’t turn a profit on the sale of the jet???
OK, nice criticism there. Get real.

Christie,
In her interview with John McCain, she asked him specific questions about the changes that Sarah Palin is supposed to make in Washington. In his replies, he continuously avoided straight answers and only gave his evasive propaganda speeches.

Now, you really can’t expect Barbara Walters to respect much about Palin … after all, her affair with a married man, gives her a very different view on life than the happily married Palin.
Barbara is just a bit biased here … but then she is on the A(all)B(barack)C(channel)!!!

I think Senator McCain assumed he would be talking to the People magazine crowd, since that’s where he’s been focusing his interviews as of late.
Barbara Walters has met and interviewed many heads of state and I think her questions should be treated with the respect she has earned in her career as a trailblazing journalist.

And what’s with McCain’s “if only Obama would have joined in the Town Hall meetings” crap?
What? Play by my rules or I won’t play by any?!?!?! What. A. Tool!

McCain looked very statesmanlike in putting up with Baba Wawa’s shrill whines on The View. And what’s with the rapid-fire blinking of her eyes when she tries to make a point?

Republicans are feeling buyers remorse today.
Their “heros” are getting trounced simply because they are being asked to actually back up what they’ve been spewing for two weeks.
No doubt, Palin will never be allowed to campaign by herself for fear she’ll be exposed even further. And McCain can’t get anyone to listen to him without Palin. A perfect couple!
The Old Man and the Bulldog, a new comedy from the GOP, will soon be released on DVD!

I love the View but today I thought certain people were on the attack as you watch Whoopie kept winking at Joy and Barabra was angery the way she asked her question. I hope when Obama, comes on they asked the tough question like did to John McCain. Barabra and Whoopie were rude. At lease Joy was repectful. Today was very disapointing for me the way certain Host, acted. They better asked Obama the same and not soft ball him and treat him like a star.

It amazes me to see how the whining about the treatment of Palin. Nobody ‘talked down to her’. She’s being treated as an equal. Unfortunately…she’s not an equal and it shows in HER responses.
I guess we’ll have to just wait for the next “hard hitting” interview next week on FOX. I’m sure they’ll get it just right. HAH!

Yep, they never treated Bo like that. I remember Behar practically having the big O over BO. Gushing over him & telling him they thought that he was sexy. Pathetic!

Barbara Walters should be back doing prime time interviews.
She and the ladies are the first questioners who expected McCain to straight shoot his answers and let him have it when didn’t.
Brava!
And did you hear him say he believed Roe vs Wade was a bad law and it is one of the first things Sarah Palin would do to reform Washington–help put justices on the Supreme Court who agree with them.
He graciously said they would not reinstitute slavery.
Why should anyone respect this man?
He stood behind commercials which are outright lies and smears.
Anyone who put up the gutter education ad ought to be run up to Alaska with his soulmate.

Newsflash.
The majority of American women are not represented by those we see on tv. Like Obama said, the Clinton era, been there, done that (Barb supported and sided with Oprah for Obama and wouldn’t support Hillary) when she and Oprah always said women were never treated fairly compared to men). She almost had a lovefest with Obama. You decide.

Why the hell would McCain go on a show with this bunch of nitwits? These morons are the reason Sarah Palin is so popular. The more these leftist elitists
disparage Sarah the more support she will receive from real men & women.

I don’t typically watch The View because they do not represent real American women. However, I was curious as to how they would treat McCain after fawining all over Obama. Would they be equally fair and respectfull? Would they have any integrity at all? The answer….a resounding NO!!!! Just makes my blood boil. I’ll definetely never watch them again and I’ll also suggest that none of my friends, family, or coworkers watch. Shame, shame, shame on The View!

Again, here we go with people saying that they are rude and talking down to a candidate. What is there to understand that McCain has been throwing mud for weeks and people want him to answer for it. Does it make him uncomfortable? Probably, but if you are going to dish it, you better be able to take it. Thank you to The View for making him accountable for what comes out of his mouth!

I’m a proud “liberal” – which seems to be the default definition of anyone who dares say anything other than that McCain and the Republicans are the best and only party.
I believe in the Constitution and the First Amendment, and if John McCain and his running mate lie, I will counter those lies. If I feel that John McCain and his running mate hold views incompatible with mine, I will vote for another candidate.
It is legal and right that candidates for high office are asked tough questions about their views and platform – McCain has certainly been more tha n reude in the last weeks, maybe that’s the only tone you can take with him.

Goldie, think about this… She came to Wasilla as mayor and got a town with a surplus budget. When she left, the town was $27Million in debt. That is a town of less than 10,000 people!!!!
Barbara Walters asked a question and did not get a straight answer and got pissed. How is that disrespectful? who is being disrespectful in Mcsame by not answering the question. This is an old tactic of the modern GOP… Cry as loud as possible when someone gets called out.

BARBARA WALTERS MADE A FOOL OF HERSELF AND SHOWED HER BIAS JUST AS CHARLES GIBSON DID…..WILL NO LONGER SUPPORT GIBSON OR WALTERS IN ANY ENDEAVORS THEY DO. AS A VIEWER, I WOULD HOPE THE NOMINEES TO BE GIVEN THE RESPECT OF AN INTERVIEW, NOT AN INTERROGATION……..

McCain said that if Sen.Obama would have agreed with his suggestion to have town hall meetings, his campaign wouldnt have turned negative and spread lies and false truths about Obama.
Is he 12 or 75.
Thats like a boy spreading nasty rumors on myspace about a girl, because she want go out with him.
Is this how he is going to run this country, Either do what i say, or I’m gonna bomb,bomb,bomb,bomb,bomb you’re women and children.
What an awful man, I used to have so much respect for Senator McCain, but during his quest to be president he, has shown that he is no better than Bush, and will do anything to win.
He plays off the fears of ignorant,racist americans and uses them to his advanatage. Just like a republican. He approves ads that have been proven to be false, and then says he is a man with morals and integrity.
Just sad that an american war hero, has steeped so low, and is willing to roll around in the mud to become our nations president.
OBAMA 2008.

I am so disappointed with the behavior of the women on The View. Especially Barbara Walter’s behavior. It was so rude to constantly interrupt John McCain. If she didn’t like the answer he was trying to give..she should of at least given him the courtesy of allowing him to finish his sentence before she rudely interrupted him. Most of the time when he was giving her a response (or a least trying to respond)she wouldn’t even look him in the eyes when he was responding. She would just look downward when he was speaking. That body language speaks volumes in that it says, I do not want to listen to your answer. She is so pompous. To any who may disagree with with this…that is fine, but just look at a tape of the Views interview with Obama.

Whatever happened to being respectful? Allowing someone to answer even if you disagree? Everything in this country is imploding!

For all those folks who think the media has been treating poor Gov. Palin so rudely, imagine how the Russians would treat her. Or any Arab nation that really does have less respect for their women. What’s Palin going to do then? If she can’t take the heat…

Wow, that was just rude, what happened to maintaining professionalism? Barbara and the others nearly attacked this man, why have an interview if you are not going to let the man speak? I am appalled and will not be watching “The View” again.

Thank God someone interrupted McCain from his usual, boring and full of lies stump speech. He and Pallin rattle off these untruths like the more they tell them the more people will believe them. It’s awful, insulting and Barbara Walters (this is her show, remember}refused to be manipulated by one of McCains 5 minute sentences. This also is the old way to get at some truth is the throw him off guard. He takes advantage of well mannered, thoughtful and considerate people. That he would try to defend Pallin is said, we all say the debaucle of last night. He can’t lie about that mess.

The Womean on the View (except for Elizabeth) are so good at trying to invalidate those they don’t like. I challenge all of them to look at a tape of the show and notice their body language.
If you think you are so fair…why not play side by side the day you had Obama on and today. Wow, what a difference.
You need to quite your job and just go on payroll for Obama.
Now I u/s why my friends laugh at me for watching the view…NO MORE.

Once again lopsided left wing media at work..get a grip ABC! Maybe the Obama campaign pays off these yahoos and their super rude “interviewers”, am I right? Sorry, their not to be called journalists, as REAL journalism is NON BIAS!!!!

Barbara Walters didn’t even look at Senator McCain much. She just can’t stand it. Maybe Barbara should take her one-sided view over to CNN?
Senator McCain and Governor Palin make a great team! Who’s a PIG?
Senator Obama must have been thinking about himself.

Maybe if McCain is much younger man and still look like on the video when he just got released, those women would be drooling all over him.
Infact he was quite good looking guy at that time.

They disgraced Hillary also when Hillary was running.
Only Elizabeth backed up Hillary eventhough she is Reps.
ABC,,,when are you going to cancel the show?
Ellen is gay but she has been treated every candidate equally and full of respect.

You have got to be kidding me – The View is transparent all right. Obama support all the way. BABA and CHARLIE are both poor excuses for journalists. They have passed their prime and need to move over for some younger, more people savy interviewers. Calling McCain too old is the pot calling the kettle black. And SHAME on Whoopie – she hasn’t suffered anything (except embarrassment at her own hand)

How dishonorable that anyone would dare to ask a candidate for the presidency a tough question! It’s shocking to assume that he should answer. Fie on you ladies of “The View!!!!”

Are you kidding? The Dems and most of the media have been in a “love fest” with Obama since he came on the scene. It’s all fluff and little substance. Obama has been running around the country for two years of his career in the Senate trying to run for President, and he mostly votes “Present” – What commitment!

WoW, what a group of rude women. I didn’t watch the view but I heard it and I was surprised that Barbara even let McCain get a word in.Whoopi asking about slavery? Barbara saying the white folk will save her. What is going on & when are they going to get rid of that stupid show? For once it wasn’t big mouth Joy saying stupid stuff. When Obama is on, they melt all over the place.Maybe when the Obama’s come back on, they can give us more useless info.No hard questions for them, they just got to speak about what ever they wanted.If they interrupted they apolized to the Obama’s. I really think the crusted hag should apologize but then it wouldn’t be sincere anyway.

Wow – I have never seen this show, but was home today and heard John McCain was going to be on. What a disgusting group of women! I used to admire Barbara Walters -what happened to her? Whoopi, too. Whoopi rolled her eyes and was so classless. That Joy woman was just irritating, and Barbara was plain rude!
I guess they are very upset about Sarah and the obvious change in the election. Too bad….guess they won’t be interviewing McCain/Palin when they win the nomination!!!

I have been in the media industry for over 20 years, and it is not all that common for liberal bias to be so out in the open- this time emerging from Barbara Walters at a surprising intensity. If this was supposed to be an interview, why weren’t McCain and his wife treated as courteously as Obama or Michelle? No balance here. I look forward to more well-deserved, continuing loss in market share- especially after poor conduct like this.

Barbara Walters has for decades coasted and coasted in the media and somehow kept her various jobs in television — go figure, it certainly doesn’t take Einstein to see why. She has no real depth, no true understanding of anything but soulless riches and a phony facade. She is calculating, sneaky and extremely crude and tacky in her demeanor.

She belongs to the Mainstream Media. All of them act like they’ve had a lobotomy, Lori.

Barbara Walters was rude and unprofessional today. Then after the way she and her fellow liberals treated him they had the nerve to ask him to get Governor Palin to come on their show.
Walters was also unprepared. When she asked her last question about why Mccain didn’t leave prison when he had the chance —- that in her mind it would not have mattered. Do some background work Barbara—their is a Military Code of Conduct. The last one in is the last one to be released. As McCain told her it would have been used as propaganda.
Here they had the chance to ask questions on the issues and all those pit bull dogs Joy and Barbara wanted to carp about was Governor Palin. No questions on economic issues, immigration, education, national security, taxes, etc.. It was all about Palin because those pointed headed East Coast liberal women are in panic mode. They just can’t seem to realize that everytime they trash Sarah Palin–her ratings go up with the rest of the country. Barbara Walters was just plain “bitchy” today.

Barbara Walters was so rude on today View she show no respect for Senator McCain and his wife.Was Elizabeth told not to talk to day? BIG MISTAKE Why would Sara ever come on the View and have Barb and Woopi be so rude to her. Most women are proud that another woman has as a shot at the vice presidency. THIS SHOW WAS A BIG JOKE some of you all need a lesson in manners!!!!

i think the ladies on the view were like pit bulls in lipstick. they had no respect for mr mcCain. barbra walters couldn’t even look john in eye. she lost all my respect for her. and joy bahar should stick to commedy. she knows absoulty nothing about politcs. what ever happened to fair and balanced.poor showing by miss walters.
the dems are just frightened to death of mrs palin. by the way who’s running for pres sarah palin or john mcCain?

This all makes me sick to my stomach,its hard to not look at this as black and white, but it really is.Now because someone askes this man a question and its a hard one they say that is disrespect………. either he can answer or he cant, now if it was Obama being asked those questions, would it still be disrespect? I think not………..now this chicks daughter is pregnant not married and have all the fixings that is suppose to come with bringing a child into this world and starting a family like (Steady income) and we aint suppose to say anything………Now when its on the other foot its a big deal …….

What is disgraceful is that you Republicans heard your candidate say he spreads LIES through his ads because Obama would not do the town hall meetings. The liberal media. Is there such a thing? What about FOX, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, et. al. And, what about the lies that PALIN tells. You Republican idiots are voting for another candidate that TELL OUTRIGHT LIES. Maybe, people treat OBAMA with dignity because he does not make inflammatory ads. SARAH PALIN is a liar. I know because I live in Alaska.

Why were all of the ladies on the view dressed in black and white? Was this a statement by the view?
Black and white expresses a somber feeling. Black and white is gray and dull.
I was wondering if anyone else noticed this.

ABC and “The View” should be embarrassed and Ashamed of thier treatment of John McCain. Politics aside, here is an individual who served his country in the highest form of the definition. A true patriot and a war hero, who has accomplished a great deal. Barbara Walters could not even look him in the eye when asking her grilling, ridiculing and harassing questions. This alone is a testement to what little or no character she has. Her side kick Whoopi Goldberg had to ask the most disrespectful question I have ever heard if she should worry about being a slave again. Are you serious?!! What is this country comming to when a celebrity that does little more than memorize a few lines and stand in front of a camera gets more respect and adulation than a man with true character and resolve. A man that has layed his life on the line for our country. “The View” and ABC will have to live with their own dishonor. As for McCain no matter what is thrown his way he will always come out with honor and rspect! He is a true American! God Bless America.

Shame on you Barbara, I couldn’t believe it, you of all people conducting an interview in such a poor taste. You know that smart people realize when is time to go, you need to retire, you have lost your touch. I will not watch The View again, is a program of hate and rudeness.

Please, tell me what good purpose Barbara Walters and The View is serving? I was deeply troubled at the unprofessional attitudes displayed in the McCain interview. I am concerned that the overall attitudes of the media is terribly biased and unfair. I don’t like “Imus,” Yet his escapade is beginning to pale in comparison to present day media activity and the media themselves criticized him. No one has put Senator Obama, Bill and Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, Nancy Palosi, or Harry Reed through the ringer like this. The rating of congress is lower than the President and even more ineffective. Yet, after the midterm elections, why hasn’t the media called the Democrates, who control congress, to accountability for not living up to their promises and the gaffs they make. Yet, the media bashes the presidend and those running on the Republican ticket. Why? Would Barbara and Whoopi be as tough and disrespectful to them? The media complains about partisan politics and yet they promote it. Reading the reviews from The View program, the questions asked by Walters and others were not were contentious, mean spirited and interrogative. Not true journalism. Can we get back to good journalism, professionalism, and fair objectivity. The American people can make up their own minds. They don’t need a media bias. Please leave the tabloid stuff to the tabloids. I quite frankly an insulted.

The lipstick comment got my attention.
I watched the news cast of Obama talking about lipstick on a pig and if you watch the complete interview from beginning to end he does tie McCain and Palin together with the comment.
He first mentioned the lipstick on a pig comment and then followed that with the fish wrapped in paper is still a smelly fish and with the complete phrase he made it was clear to me that he was talking about McCain and with that context it tied the lipstick comment to Pailin. I have yet to see the complete comment aired on the news and the way it has been portrayed is incomplete and misleading.
I beleive this is the norm for most of the news we see today. We get snippits of news to give us just enough information to guide our thoughts in the direction the media would like to take us.
Shame on the media!

To the iraq soldier,
Let us not forget that Barack Obama was also born to a 17yr old unmarried teenager. Hmmm…and according to the people wanting to vote for him…I guess he turned out to be a pretty alright guy. When anyone criticizes Palin and her daughter…they are criticizing Obama and his mother as well. Of course it’s not the “ideal” situation for anyone of any race, but it doesn’t define a person or their family.

I cannot understand why anyone is surprised by Barbara Walters behavior. This is the so called “journalist” who asked world leaders what their favorite color was and what kind of a tree they would be? Give me a break, don’t tune into The View if you expect intelligence or equality or all emcompassing views from many different ppl — it ain’t going to happen folks!! They are on a mission to get Barak elected. McCain and his wife should not have appeared on it.

The View is one of the most biased of any TV show. Dont you think it is time Barbara retired. I very seldom watch this program as they all talk at one time – trying to be 1 up on the rest.If you look up your history you will see that Teddy Roosevelt had about the same credentials as Palin

ABC did a much better job than NBC masking their liberal bias. So much so that the McCain campaign imagined they might be treated with respect there. WRONG! Charlie Gibson’s condescending, professorial stance during his cross-examination of Governor Palin was pathetic. I would love to see the roles reversed, with the Governor given the task of determining the depth of Charlie’s command of journalistic trivia. Charlie was the embodiment of elite media and it’s self-annointed intellectual superiority. Talk about HUBRIS! Come on Charlie…ask the tough IMPORTANT questions, and please do it respectfully. No one cares if Governor Palin knows Charlie’s definition (of the several recognized) of “The Bush Doctrine”. Everyone cares where she stands on national security. I can now include Charlie Gibson in with the Sean Hannity and Keith Olbermanns of the world…irrelevent.
Bill O’Reilly did a slightly better job with Senator Obama, although I believe a U.S. Senator should be allowed to complete a sentence without interruption. Bill was Bill, but Charlie seemed like a man on an unfamiliar mission. A SAD mission that superseded the nation’s desire to discover Governor Palin’s stance on the important issues facing our country.
The gang at the view was embarrassingly transparent in their attempt to shoot down Senator McCain and his wife with their flurry of tabloid-based inquiries. Sherri and Elisabeth should be commended for their attempts to inject a sense of respect and civility into the mix. The saving grace came when Cindy McCain dressed down Babs in her attempt to dredge up more meaningless sound-bite fodder. Whoopi’s attempt to drag slavery into the discussion show’s her grasp of the current political terrain. Joy… IS a comedienne.
When will the left realize that this type of attempted one-upsmanship and name calling (Keith Olbermann) will never replace honest, respectful debate, or inquiry into pertinent issues, and the professional credibility of the individuals involved. If they stay away from the manufactured outrage to misrepresented sound bites, the GOP should continue to reap benefits with the majority of non-partisan voters.
In the spirit of debate.
-Keith

Also explain please:
WHAT RELATIONSHIP OBAMA HAS TO FARRAKHAN
HOW MICHELLE DOUBLED HER SALARY OVERNIGHT WHEN OBAMA WAS ELECTED TO THE SENATE
WHERE REV WRIGHT IS NOW IN OBAMA’S LIFE
WHAT THE HELL OBAMA IS TRYING TO DO WITH SENATE BILL #2433, THE GLOBAL POVERTY BILL–US WELFARE FOR THE WORLD

Such hostility. It’s embarrasing. If you are going to invite McCain and his wife on the show, the least they can do is let him speak when he answers their questions. Such disrespect… these aren’t ladies….they are Liberal mouthpieces.
What a sorry excuse for a show. Perhaps rename the show from “The View” to “One View”.

I don’t know about you but I’m getting tired of watching the media get tingles up their legs for Obama. They need to get a hotel room and a penicillin shot and get over it.
And then maybe they can sober up and play fair. I’m sick of it.

I have watched this show from day one and have never been more disgusted as I was this day, even when Rosie was on. They talked about the disrespect of Hilary, in the past, MY GOD WHAT WAS THIS. Babs never gave the man a chance to answer and was go aggressive. Who cares how many homes the McCains have. Here parents worked hard and Mrs McCaine as their child got the fruits of their hard labor. I guess Barbar’s daughter will be asked when Barbara dies how much of her money and homes came from the men she slept with. Barbara used this show as a free advertisment for her book. I am a disabled white 55 year old female who worked hard all my life, but I have never seen anybody be treated so disrespectful on this show, When Mr. O was on Elizabeth treated him with respect and dignity. Its getting to the point that I guess you can,t have an opinion unless its in line with ABC or Barbara’s. They said at the beginning of the show, that to think this program started out as a simple program to discuss different opinions. Well Fridays show was certaintly a simple
show with simple one minded women. I was very proud of Elizabeth and Sherri, but they really didn’t had the chance to say anything. People , this is America and we do have the right to our own opinions and the right to say them where and how we want, and people like John McCaine and every other American who has joined the military, and died for this great nation, has given us that right to enjoy those freedoms. You don’t have to agree with HIS Views or anyones views, but we do need to be respectful of each other. I am a registered Rep. but have always voted my heart. But after some of the comments made from Mr O. I will be voting my party this year. Barbara, it,s time you hang your hat up. Your age is showing and there are times I am actually embarassed for you. I always thought you were a woman who no matter what your opionions were you could be objective as a reporter. Boy did you mess this one up.

John McCain and his wife are class acts. I have never seen Barbara Walter so rude and in a person’s face. I will no longer watch the View or Oprah.

Tried to blog on a CNN site. I still don’t see my blog. Well, here goes:
Palin did go to Kuwait then went across the boarder into Iraq. She went as a Governor – not a soldier – not a VP.
What’s the problem? Also, Obama wants to give 95% a tax break and ALSO give the majority more benefits. Take in less – give more?? – Study McCain’s Lexington Energy project and his ecocomic plan. Ir makes sense. Stop the rhetoric, Obama. He can always say, “I didn’t know” just like he did with the Rev. Wright fiasco (When Obama got into trouble, he denied his pastor). Look closely at his Chicago connections when he was a community organizer.
No guts – no honor.

What in the world got into the ladies on The View today?? Republican or not, there was no need to be SO disrespectful to McCain. I’m very disappointed in their behavior today (Elisabeth aside)!

The whole View crew needs to be replaced. Barbara was talking over McCain and not allowing him to answer because she wanted to come up with the answers. So why ask? The group with the exception of Elisabeth seems bitter. Joy can’t seem to control her bitterness or anger. Good job Barbara I will stop watching and hope you go away. Just to think, you pushed Star and Rosie off for this.

It is pretty obvious from reading all these comments that we, as americans, either hate it or love it. There was nothing wrong with Barbara’s questions but you can notice she was getting upset as McCain refused to directly answer her questions. We already have a president like that and look where it has lead us… We need someone who can reply to ALL questions.. good or bad. McCain and Palin lack this

I am disappointed and disgusted with Barbara Walters. I have always considered her very fair and my favorite interviewer. What has happened to her? It is obvious to this “Independent” voter that she does not like Sarah Palin or Senator McCain. Which is her personal opinion but they way she rolled her eyes in the background when Senator McCain was speaking and the way she absolutely nothing good to say about Sarah Palin is unprofessional and very transparent to the public. I am sure that when/if she interviews Obama, there will be no Eye Rolling and Pouty Faces allowed. The thing is that she isn’t accomplishing her mission of turning us off on the McCain/Palin ticket, but it’s turning us off from her! Good job, Barbara – you have made up my mind for me – We need a “composed, intelligent” person running this country and I am now voting for McCain!

It’s time to go Barbara. You are showing your true colors.

The collapse of Lehman Bros. can be traced back to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Freddie and Fannie used lobbying budgets AND political contributions to keep regulators off their back. NOW, OBAMA is #2 of the top 3 U.S. senators
who receivedFreddie &Fannie political cash.Obama has only been in the senate for 4 years. Read the history of Fannie and Freddie. Washington Democrats been lining up for years to be on their payroll and to take huge contributions from them. It was John McCain who introduced bills to regulate Fannie and Freddie, but dem.senate shot it down.Obama is pointing fingers NOW. Obama, who is guilty,istrying to pin it on McCain.Itwas Obama who was second in line (and only after 4 years in the senate) when it came to sucking a huge amount of money from Freddie and Fannie – organizations who were supposed to help poor people buy houses. The gov. had to bail out Freddie and Fannie, BUT we need to past Sen. McCain’s bills to regulate where the money can go to.

The latest rumor going around is that Biden was going to step down after the VP’s debate in October. He was going to say (all of a sudden) that it’s for health reasons. (he looks healthy to me) THEN, Hillary was going to step in his place. That would be very funny if true. We’ll see.

TO THE VIEW: It was very nice to hear an apology from Ms. Walters regarding Sen. McCain and Mrs. McCain. However,
it would only be fair if you would ask some tough questions to Sen. Obama – i.e. — Obama’s connection to Barney Frank, Harry Reid, Bob Rubin, Franklin Raines, William Ayers, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the Chicago connection, and Austan Goolsbee, the Obama economic adviser who has been writing academic papers for years about why it would be bad to regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Also, why is Obama #2 on the list of people who took contributions from Fannie & Freddie (and did nothing to regulate them?) Why was Sen. McCain’s reform legislation (re: Fannie & Freddie) shot down by the Democratic Senate? (All of these names are public record. Please do some investigation and ask Sen. Obama ON AIR about these subjects. It’s only fair to ask these tough questions to the Democratic nominee.
SPONSORS OF THE VIEW:
ARE YOU LISTENING????????????????

Barbara you were so very rude to Senator McCain. Your posture, you kept spitting out questions and not allowing him time to answer and you NEVER even looked him in the eye. You would never have done that to Senator Obama, would you?! You need to go to Charm school!

what am I hearing about Obama demanding that certain ads be taken off the tv? Well, then, can McCain demand the same thing? They’re calling it the “truth squad” ads. If you don’t like the ad, just delete it???
TO THE VIEW: any comments??? Can McCain then do the same???? Thanks.
