The Evil View!

I seem to talk about Glenn Beck on this blog a lot as of late. The reason is simple. For moderates he is the voice. He is not afraid to say what he is thinking and he never holds a punch. Glenn Beck is even willing to jump into the lion's den every now and then.

Well, earlier today Glenn Beck decided to show up for a discussion with the ladies on "The View". The night before he acknowledged that he was jumping into an ambush and that little to nothing would actually be discussed. Long story short, he was more than right. From the onset Whoopi and Walters (or as I like to call them "Tweedle Dumb" and "Tweedle Dumber") gave Glenn the stink eye and set their claws to "deploy". Nothing but what I can describe as hilarity ensued during the first seven minutes. Both of our "lovely" ladies attacked Beck for lying about an incident involving who said "hi" to whom first a few weeks prior. Seriously, this, to "The View", is stimulating political debate.

After the commercial break, Glenn Beck was allowed to speak for a few seconds every now and then without the dimwit duo cutting him off. The crowd at times even applauded his remarks. However, claiming to not have a platform or stance, the ladies made the whole interview into a debate about Republicans and Democrats. Honestly, it was just quite sad and I applaud Glenn Beck for even thinking about going on that show, let alone actually showing up.

The sad part about this story is the effect this show has on America. These ladies have a platform in which they can affect the political views on many Americans. I know of a lot of people who watch this show and thus, at times, only get one side of a political argument. This show does have one conservative on it, yet, she is often attacked for her views. To me, the name "The View" portrays something totalitarian. It's scary and no wonder why Democrats have seen a major shift in numbers towards their party.
