oh my goodness. Everyone keeps saying that the media is a republican media machine. I would most definitely have to disagree with that. Everything is society seems to be the complete opposite of the so called "republican media machine." We can't celebrate Christmas and etc. because someone will be offended. It is rididulous. I am a Christian and a republican that is proud to be. Everyone needs to stop judging Elisabeth, she is not perfect like anyone else. I like her, and she is a great additional to The View. Actually when Elisabeth joined The View is when I actually started showing the show itself. I am glad there is someone on television that actually says what the other side of the issues thinks. That is the thing about freedom of speech given to us by the founding fathers in the very beginning of this great country. We can give our opinion but I do feel that Rosie goes over board. I do NOT like her, but I am not going to come on here and call her names. That is not right. They do yell. Everything I have read are being hard on Elisabeth. She finally stood up for herself, and I so glad she finally put Rosie in her place. It needed to be done. There is nothing wrong with supporting The President of the United States. No one is perfect including the president. He has made mistakes. Anyways, No one say that she is a push over now, in my opinion.  After listening to Rosie and Joy bash, it is nice to hear what Elisabeth has to say. It is The View.
