Thursday Open Thread: View Edition
by PubliusToday, President Barack Obama takes time out of his schedule to appear on “The View.” It will be like softball played with sugar-coated bon-bons. In another dimension, this might be funny.

He thinks he can 'win back the women voters' by being on a show that most women hate?? He lives in his own little fantasy world, with the rest of Hollywood! Who wants to waste their time on a show full of racists trolls (except one) and listen to these ugly women put down people they don't even know…. bad move Obummer….you just proved the rest of us right…you're nothing more than an wanna be rock star….WE need a CIC!
Maybe the Boy Scouts should change their three fingered salute to one finger, and point it to Obama.
If oblahma REALLY wanted to be "viewed" than why don't he grow a pair and go on FOX where REAL American's can see him? Shows like Glenn Beck, Hannity, or O'rielly, Cavuto etc…?
That would be racist. ; )
From the perspective of that "view"…………………he's still an idiot.
Way to go president asskicker…………………………..now Oprah's pissed.
It will be nothing more then a propaganda fest…Not interested in that BS……..
He won't go anywhere that will prove him to be the Bumbling fool that he is!!
" you're nothing more than an wanna be rock star. "
Perhaps "cRAP" would be better for him. There's more talking involved. ; )
The "c" is small on purpose.
While I may be able to understand these women fawning all over the Dali Bama when he first appeared on the scene, how can they still be drooling over him at this point? When the show is over, are they immediately transported to their home planet and therefore oblivious to what he is doing to the United States?
I'd prefer to see him on Judge Judy (as defendent). If we're lucky, he will surely be featured prominently on an upcoming History Channel piece called The Death of Democratic Socialism in American Politics.
I was never a Boy Scout, but how could a President of this wonderful country diss them to go on a TV show with such shallow people? I am just an old marine but he seems to me to be a pu$$y.
Next he'll be selling dog food or chamois. THAT I would watch.
You just answered your own question. : )
Thanks for your service Sir.
I would not watch even that.
REM has a song…
"It's the end of the world as we know it…"
this clown will not take questions even from a sycophantic press corps but will sit and chatter to this witches coven,how low has the office of POTUS fallen
As a former Boy Scout, I'm insulted that this POTUS avoided the Jamboree, but it is just one more of a long list of insulting acts and statements to which we've been subjected since he took office.
The upside is that the Scouts holding their jamboree and 100th birthday celebration at Fort A.P. Hill (named for a famous Confederate General, by the way), won't have the massive disruption of a visit from this half-baked ward heeler and can get on with the fun and spend time in much more productive pursuits than listening to a speech written by his speechwriters who probably don't have a clue what Scouting is all about.
This alleged "scheduling conflict" is pure crap. The Scouts hold their jamboree every four years at Fort A.P. Hill and the dates have been chiseled in stone for decades. The View just gave him a way to avoid being seen praising an organization vastly unpopular with his base.
He got to kill several birds with one stone – go to NYC and raise bucks for the campaigns, get lots of freebie political advertising from the appearance, avoid being seen with boys and young men whose oath, law, and motto are alien to his self-absorbed base: http://www.usscouts.org/advance/boyscout/bsoathla...
Personally, I'd like to see BO either stay on the talk-show circuit or stay on vacation.
I couldn't imagine climbing up on a couch between Barbara Walter's and Joy Behar for the life of me.
And then to sit there and actually talk to them?………………………..fogedaboudit………………….
Where do you start…………………."How bout those Bears?"………….."Hey………..who want's a beer!"???
The LOSER in CHIEF went the only place he could find folks who would still fawn over him.
POOR sad little man, tiny poor LITTLE fellow, sad, v e r y, v e r y s a d.
He knows now that the drooling masses of his 08 campaign will no longer drool.
Next year when he begins campaigning for reelection will his handlers be forced to hire actors to stack
his audiences? Nah, they'll just bus in SEIU drones, once again.

This cat has totally lost it !!!
That mental image gives me the heebie jeebies…aaack!
Oh yeah, The Liberal View, there ya go! If you wanted to be taken seriously as the most powerful man in the world, just go on that show! Who is the dumb ass that gave him this advice!?
Morning sis!
" (DIEWS – Digital Imagery Exploitation Workstation) "
Good one Sir I like that!
I wasn't a Boy Scout, but isn't it kind of a Christian organization? I mean, this is the same president who has crucifixes covered up if he has to be seen near them…
Morning sis…
" Who is the dumb ass that gave him this advice!? " You asked?
….hmmmmm maybe michelle…. or piglosi.
Well I've got to give him some credit. The way 0's been acting lately, I would've expected him to be doing a daytime show on Univision or BET.
It's not a Christian organization, but it does require that one acknowledge a Creator:
Boy Scout Oath
On my honor, I will do my best
To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law;
To help other people at all times;
To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake and morally straight.
It also propagates other subversive notions like the following, standards that are, to say the least, inconsistent with the behavior of such Obamaphile organizations as Journolist:
Boy Scout Law
A Scout is:
* Trustworthy,
* Loyal,
* Helpful,
* Friendly,
* Courteous,
* Kind,
* Obedient,
* Cheerful,
* Thrifty,
* Brave,
* Clean,
* and Reverent.
And, it requires that Scouts subscribe to the following, all obviously subversive to the loons who try to portray the organization as Hitler Youth:
Boy Scout Motto
Be Prepared!
Boy Scout Slogan
Do a Good Turn Daily!
Yep, here's the story. Even Clinton and Bush went and spoke at the Boy Scouts Jams in the past.
Actually, I'm kinda glad he won't be there. The thought of that Marxist around children makes me concerned. I agree, just let the boys have fun! Wouldn't it be great if Dubya showed up at the Jamboree out of the blue.
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07/27/obama-...
I for one am glad he spared the Boy Scouts all his lies and BS. He has no truck with them- he hates everything they stand for. The scouts probably know him for what he is, and are glad too deep down, although it would be great if there were a real POTUS in the White House right now to speak to them. Bush should have come out of retirement and delivered an address. That would have frosted Obaggy!
As far as him dissing the scouts and being on The View, let's hope he keeps on doing things like this, because his numbers will continue to plummet and he is surer to disappear come 2012. I hope he pisses everyone off so bad that he's tarred and feathered by the time the election rolls around.
Absolutely. He acts like he cares about the children, but only as they benefit him and his socialist ideology. The Boy Scouts have morals and identify with Jesus Christ our Lord. A socialist would have none of that; the nanny state is their God. Just disgusting.
Of all the TV shows to choose from, the pimp master feels right at home with The View wackos. He would have been better off to go on the Jerry Springer Show.
This is approaching the "priceless" category!
"He acts like he cares about the children, but only as they benefit him and his socialist ideology. "
You'll get general agreement from a group that was heretofore solidly behind him, the minority parents of DC school kids who can no longer go to Charter Schools in the District because he pulled the rug out from under them as a payoff to his union cronies.
"Cares about kids!" Snort! He gives the appearance of caring about whatever group he thinks will benefit him at the moment.
His absence of character is not just pitiful, it's unnerving.
Where will they place the telepromters? Will he be able to handle this hard core interview from these champions of truth? I do know the Blond Lady (her name escapes me right now) is a Conservative Republican.
The last time Obama was on the view a couple of years ago — Barbara Walters called him sexy! That is so gross!
What isn't making much news right now, but which I'm sure is giving O's base some real cognitive dissonance, is the absence of an invitation to Chelsea's wedding.
O downplayed it but it is a major slap in the face, delivered obliquely, ostensibly by Chelsea, but you can bet a lot that Bill and Hill had a say in it.
If a former POTUS and his own Secretary of State don't want him at what should be a joyful family celebration, then that speaks volumes about the validity of his currency behind the scenes in DC.
Is Obama becoming a political "bubble boy"?
What does Rush always quote in times like these? "When your enemy is destroying himself, move out of the way and let them do it." Let the Big O keep on- we're watching and laughing. Sort of. Wish we didn't have to, the office of President deserves so much better than BO.
I just noticed on the Yahoo news page that taxes are going up on the middle class (me and a lot of you). Gee, what a surprise! I'm shocked. Shocked that the MSM is finally putting out some fragments of truth to the public. But they always start trickling out the bad news (truth) long after the damage has been done legislatively, usually with their help. It's a pattern with the sycophantic press. Wish we could tar and feather them, too.
Obammy is all about celebrity, so I'm sure they're fuming. This is more delightful news.
I deconstructed Obama's instructional video. Result comedy gold:
Prof Obama Explains Healthcare.gov to the Masses
.
As Rush noted, Obama will bring some much-needed estrogen to the show.
.
Someone on the left warned him not to go on that show a couple of weeks ago — I think it was Carville. He said it is political suicide. I agree, just let him keep thumbing his nose at everything that makes America great. It's just my hope and prayer that the damage is reparable by the time he's out in 2012 or we take back the House this November.
To quote Rush some more…………I just bet the four liberal women who host this show will have a "Gorbasm" when he walks on stage! Que the Darth Vader Music please!!
I think her name is Elizabeth Hasslebeck!
Eeeeccch,
PUNK and CLOWN
Ha ha! The theme is running thru my head right now!
Yes, let's hope the damage he does from here on out is only to himself- not thru legislation being enacted. Hopefully they will cool their jets until November.
Dah-dah-dah, dum-de-dum, dum-de-dum.
I'm placing bets on Michelle since I'm sure she wants to keep her husband far, far away from Mr. "Tingle Up My Leg".
Off-topic, but I don't think I've seen two sisters chatting on the same blog before. I know I can't get my sister to join the Bigs since we already debate stuff like this over the phone.
That's it exactly. I didn't feel like googling. I know she's married to an NFL player. I have watched the show a couple of times out of curiosity, and the other four barely let Elizabeth get a word in edgewise. She really has guts to stay on the show and stand up for her Conservative beliefs.
It'll be the boy scouts that survive this administration because of all the survival skills they have been taught over the years,support your local troops.
Never thought about that, not being invited to the wedding is a slap. Don't blame the Clintons though. Can you imagine what tasteless crap Michelle would wear?
24/7 campaigning. If any of his programs were useful, he wouldn't need to be selling so hard. I hope American voters realize they took a collective "stupid" pill in 2008 and vote this clown out in 2012.
We go way back to when Glenn first started these projects. We're not biological sisters but we consider ALL gals our sisters of freedom. That includes you too. : )
And the guys are our brothers.
Oh, sweet.
Then good morning, sis!
Honestly I never watched it. I paid attention to different clips that Fox would show during those "rating promotions" when they dissed Elizabeth. I won't give those commie networks my time. If it's anything THAT good it will be shown on Fox or you can stream it on line so they won't get the credit for the ratings.
This is a non-issue…Obama and heridens of the View. Two couches full of people sharing one commmon trend. None of them know what the he!! they are talking about….
I did love the desperate attempt of former VA governor Tim Kaine on Fox News this moring attempting to further the DNC allegations that the Tea Party and Republicans are one and the same. He trotted out some vague, but pointed allegations that the Tea Party, and by association, the Republican party have racist overtones.
That is it, the DNC is now messaging race in an attempt the slow the Republican advance. When will someone in the RNC grow some stones and call these idiots out? How long are they going let the DNC keep up their messaging campaign before they address and quash it?
He's become quite the professional at throwing folks under the bus. Women, men and the children. Barack Hussein Stalin (the Obama surname is just a 'Ghost of the Shell').
ah the days of old .. when the left were making fun of John McCains ad calling Obama a superstar… another one the left got wrong – this is guy is no president ..
http://trailblazersblog.dallasnews.com/archives/2...
Still campaigning. Go figure.
Morning sis… And welcome to our family! : )
Brilliant move, Barack. Next, you should hire Vinnie the Slap-Chop guy to do your weekly radio/video address for you …
We all know that President Super Star's polls are tanking, but after The View airing, everything will be o.k.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BB_Mnr2anp0
Can't wait for those hard hitting questions. I think I will read a history book instead.
I've been singing that for some time now.
Obama ‘not invited’ to Chelsea Clinton wedding
With only two days to go, the guest list for Chelsea Clinton's wedding on Saturday is still the subject of a media guessing-game in the US. But one person who has definitely not been invited is Barack Obama.
The US President revealed as much when he appeared on the chat show The View, which aired in the US yesterday.

Hahahahahaha
Are you saying Obama is a girlie man ?
Hahaha
Morning sis! Glad to "meet" you! Are you up for some coffee and maybe a game of Canasta with us ?? LOL
Wow! You think Oprah could be jealous? Is her vajayjay a painin'?
Perhaps he can be the piece of garbage put int he back of the cruiser on the next episode of COPS.
The View:………Whoopie
"It wasn't really rape rape"
The Boy Scouts:……..Obama
"It wasn't really necessary necessary"
He definitely throws a baseball like a girl! Did you see the video where they compare Dubya's pitch to Obamas ? Funny stuff. Michelle looks and acts more like a man than he does.
Obama Faces Jilted Voters on Raucous Jerry Springer Show: http://optoons.blogspot.com/2010/07/obama-faces-j...
That would be great. Obama can't hold a candle to Dubya when it comes to class.
He's already an experienced Snake Oil Salesman for Soros Enterprises.
Obama would probably give Chelsea a box set of DVDs regifted from the PM of Britain….
I was a Boy Scout and have a son that is a Cub Scout. These are things that Obama is clearly not.
America's Moron pays a visit to America's Ditzes… nothing is accomplished.
"Let me be clear, I will not rest until I can be assured that Elizabeth Hasselbeck will not ask me any questions."
Although I acknowledge Christ as Lord, the Boy Scouts do not require adherance to Christianity. I remember several Jewish members of my troop. The morals of the Boy Scouts are consistent with Judeo-Christian concepts of morality. As I recall, it was only outright atheism that was frowned upon by the Boy Scout organization.
that's the only thing I watched on F&F this am, strat. Slimy greasy looking little freak, I wonder how much
he was paid for that 'appearance' and by whom? The DNC sure keeps trying to sell this racist/TEA angle.
Amazing, they have no shame, they'll say anything, then laugh about it and claim, "It's just politics!" After
a performance like he did this a.m. they shouldn't ever let him on there ever again.
Beck is talking about a bill in Cong today that will make the US Gov't able to go into any business, seize
all records and e-mail, and it would be illegal for the business to even speak publicly on the 'raid'. Scary!
Morning, sis! Glad to "meet" you, too!
I'm not much of a coffee drinker, but I wouldn't say "no" to going for tea or hot chocolate. Never played canasta before though. LOL
Wouldn't it be great if Elizabeth asked him why he did the show today instead of being with the Boy Scouts.
Obama is consistent about making the wrong decision. Oil Spill, AZ law, NBPP incident, Gates incident, Boy Scouts, Sherrod fiasco, etc. etc.
Obama has taken the Bush statement "They are with us or against us" and turned it on the American People.
Obama does things that says if you are not on his side then you are against him. It is not longer about what America wants to do but what Obama wants to do. And he couldn't do all this with out the full support of the Democrats. No Democrat is standing up for the American people.
Vote anybody but Democrats. Democrats = Far Left Radical or Far Left Radical sympathizer.
Now is a good time to learn. : )
Face it. The only thing this guy knows how to do is campaign. That's it. He leaves everything else to his controllers.
Why is whoopi the only one on the couch sitting like a man?
I'm waiting with baited breath for THE hard hitting question: "President Obama? Where is your favorite place to buy mom jeans?"
He could have gone on the "view" anytime. The Boyscout Jamboree was celebrating its centennial anniversary. Wait a minute, my bad. BO is against everything the Scouts stand for. Besides, he didn't want to anger the aclu, an organization out to destroy the entire scouting program due to its Christian principles.
Spot on.
Like Fred Barnes, I can continue my unbroken streak of NEVER having watched "The View".
Quite a ways. He should hit bottom about 1 Jan, 2011 when the tax increases hit the American public..
Now that would be fantastic to see.
There is possibly more truth to your remark than meets the eye.
We bought some cards yesterday. I'm going to teach my hubby how to play. I haven't played in a LONG time myself.
Oh yeah, I take chocolate in any form — it's a cure all!!
Off topic — my kids had some birthday/chore money burning a hole in their pockets, so we went in with them and bought a Wii! I can't wait to get it LOL.
That is all he knows how to do. He's nothing more than a puppet for his real masters. Soros and the "new" communist party come to mind.
Yes, the lemmings and useful idiots will fall back in line.
Why Just the Boy Scouts?; We should ALL give him the ONE FINGER SALUTE……
Well, God bless Chelsea for not wanting the buffoon and his army of trolls spoiling her day.
Same here, but it has to be Hershey's.
I must admit ignorance. I didn't even know the show(apparently circus) existed until recently.
