Behar, M.D.: Rush, Beck and Bush Conservatism a Product of Being Ex-Addicts; Says Palin is 'Dumb'

Once again, the nightly train wreck known as CNN Headline News "The Joy Behar Show" took another jab at conservatism, particularly Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. Only this time, Behar threw in a couple of old standbys for whom lefties are fixated upon assaulting - former President George W. Bush and former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin.

Behar, on her Oct. 17 CNN HLN program, suggested to radio show talk host and former child-star actor Danny Bonaduce there was a trend - that people who have had struggles with chemical addictions are now outspoken, particularly those on the right that Behar disagrees with.

"Do you see a trend? Rush Limbaugh, Oxycontin. Glenn Beck, alcoholic, Danny Bonaduce, alcoholic ... and George Bush, ex-alcoholic," Behar said.

Wow. Joy Behar really has it all figured out now. Let's give her a TV show.

[VR-21]

More wit and wisdom from Peg Bundy.

[Mojave]

She also likes to smear Catholics, claiming that "Don't you remember when you went to Communion? 'In vino veritas.' The priests were all drunk, don't you remember?"

“The Joy Behar Show” on HLN. Because one network alone is not big enough to contain Teh Stupid.

[jessduntno]

Her show is destined to become both hugh AND series...

[gwilhelm56]

YO, Joyless ... When I WAS an Addict, I believed JUST LIKE YOU DO!!!

[thecabal]

What a pathetic loser. Trying to get ratings by being the anti-Beck show every single day. Talk about riding coattails.

And good thing she pointed out all of the recovering addicts on the conservative side. They are downright immoral compared to the clean living liberals! LOL!

[SandRat]

Hey! Joy Behind!

I'm not a recovering substance abuser and I'm a Conservative.

Now what are you going to blame my Conservatism on.

[stayathomemom]

I admit, I’m addicted to Rush.

[hsmomx3]

She and her whiny voice get on my nerves. Where did she come from other than she looks like a Bette Midler clone.

[freedom_is_earned]

Ahhh, and being a Democrat is the sign of being an ongoing addict? Clinton (sex), Obama (you name it, apparently), Pelosi (denial, lying, general ignorance), Biden (idiocy) . . . . phhht. Too easy.

[LostInBayport]

Here's Joy discussing the Nielsen ratings for her show.

Interesting that it comes from Joy, the poster child of lipstick on a pig.

[digger48]

Now what are you going to blame my Conservatism on.

Thats easy....you must then be....

a. racist

b. bigot

c. homophobe

d. all of the above

[13Sisters76]

Joy Behar calling ANYONE “dumb” is miles and MILES beyond the pot calling the kettle black.

Thbis woman stands with the Great Dopes in history- I have come to strongly believe that there is nothing under that hair helmet but gas.

[NonValueAdded]

That girl just can’t understand normal thinking.

[jessduntno]

arrrrgh...my eyes!

[SandRat]

e. a Christian

[parthian shot]

Her show is destined to become both hugh AND series...

Well, yes, I can remember listening to Rush Limbaugh before he had his battle with Oxycontin addiction. He was soooo liberal then, right? It was only after the Oxycontin problem that he became conservative, according to Behar, who always gets her facts right, right?
