    OK, so we should care more about strippers than whether 911 was a conspiracy. Republican recruiters, be on notice. Here's some red-meat Republicans for you. Just make sure your Christian Right sex-hating bluenose faction's literature never accidentally gets mailed to them.

      Iowahawk can blow his stick-in-the-mud attitude out of his a$$.

      However, to be fair, the car wreck footage should be part of an alternating reel. Mix it with footage of buildings falling down and animals attacking to be switch after each break. Otherwise, things will get real stale real fast.

        For people who loathe The View as much as they claim they do, they know more about it than I do and I could give a rats a$$ about that show.

          Honestly, I don't watch The View anymore, and I don't necessarily like the personalities who anchor The View. I didn't like Star Jones, Meredith Vieira, Rosie O'Donnell, Elizabeth Hasselbeck on that show. I did like Lisa Ling and do like Joy Behar.

            I've never watched The View myself, so it's no big deal to me about how watchable the show is. The threads at Nutscape, on the other hand, are going to take a big hit now that Rosie is gone. Is Charlie Sheen ready to fill Rosie's shoes yet?

              Why, by any stretch of the imagination, is this "news?"

                Blogger wars, now that I may watch if they use BAZOOKAS! The View is a show on TV, correct? It runs on electricity, when it is put in the on position? I presume, really hate to presume, but eh, that most people do get more than one channel on these appliances called TV? What exactly is the big deal here??

                Did enjoy the virtual conversation, and some of those ideas... well...interesting [and I thought I had a warped mind!]
