Barbara Walters on Wednesday told Joy Behar she's so offensive to so many people they will give money to folks she doesn't like.

This marvelously was "The View" co-host's response to Nevada Republican senatorial candidate Sharron Angle raising $150,000 online after Behar called her a bitch on Tuesday's program.

WALTERS: "She has a sense of humor."

BEHAR: "Well, I don't know if it's a sense of humor, but I’d like to point out that those flowers were picked by illegal immigrants and they're not voting for you, bitch."

WALTERS: "What it also says is that you are so offensive to many people that they will raise money to whomever you disapprove of."

BEHAR: "Okay, that's fine."

HASSELBECK: "And another $150,000 is being donated currently as we speak."

BEHAR: "I don’t care."

“It’s your show, Barbara. Obviously is you were that concerned about Behar’s offensiveness, it wouldn’t be allowed to happen.”

Because Walters does`nt control the show. behar and whoopi do. And before that, rosie controlled it. Walters is just along for the ride. behar and whoopi tolerate Walters as long as she does`nt get too far out of line. Walters is terrified of them.

Walters is terrified of them.

Walters owns the show. It's her production.

She has no reason to fear anybody on the set.

[lonevoice]

Because Walters does`nt control the show

Ah, but she does, both literally and legally. Walters and her business partner, Bill Geddie, are the creators and executive producers of The View. Barbara has complete authority. What she says, goes. I assure you, Barbara Walters is terrified of no one, especially those for whom she signs their paychecks.

Joy is a living, breathing oxymoron.

[UCFRoadWarrior]

Joy Behar is one of the most butt-stupid people on the planet

If she thinks Islam is so peaceful...she should take her arse and send herself to Saudi Arabia or some other Muslim hellhole. Lets see her defend Islam after they put her in a Burqa and tell her when she can speak, go out, use the bathroom, etc...

This woman is just so stupid

Mine voted for ZerO (Tennessee, which went to McCain anyway) and she doesn’t have a clue what is going on, even as her husband sits idle and out of work. She blames him not ZerO. She has a lot of that nothingness like in your tagline, and she puts lots of effort into it, too, lol!

Especially the A part!

she didn't even know what a Shitzu pup looked like

Nah, she just likes to say "Shitzu" for no reason.

I think all you mean spirited Tea Partiers should lighten up.

It's not acceptable, in polite society, to attack a pregnant woman.

Just saying...

[AmericanInTokyo]

LIBERALISM IS A MENTAL DISORDER.

[AmericanInTokyo]

All one can really say to hopeless people like that (especially if they are lurking, Joy), is:

Te qifsha, kurve!

[mitch5501]

"Or.....Joy’s elevator doesn’t reach the top floor..."

Or...there's a few 'roos in the top paddock

[mojitojoe]

She isn’t pregnant, she’s just fat. :P

1) behar thinks Angle is a racist.

2) behar`s comments are helping Angle raise money.

3) behar does`nt care that she`s helping a "racist" raise money and thinks thats fine.

Gawd, I love the smell of deductive reasoning in the morning.

Smells like victory.

Kudos.

Pulling this trigger takes 2.

“Especially the A part!”

Ain’t that the truth !!!

I think Barbara is one of those naive liberals that truly believe that their side is morally superior and highly intellectual.
Joy Beharm, Whoopi Goldigger, and Rosie O’donuts should have disabused her of that notion by now............

[stayathomemom]

Anyone one know where the flowers came from so the company can be informed that they were accused of a crime on television?

I've been wondering why that aspect of her comment has seemed to slip under everyone's radar.
