Quote of the day: "He's a Communist!"

October 22, 2008
The View
Bill O'Reilly takes on the Viewbots. Elisabeth must have looked forward to work for once having some back up. It's only fair. (She's going to Florida to introduce Gov Palin this weekend.) I enjoyed the body language. Look how he is turned away from Sherri - clearly finding Joy to be his biggest threat. I forget how much space he takes up outside his words. I find it curious that Whoopi was "sick". A few snippets. Video courtesy of ExFilms.

O': "He's a Communist!" The crowd doesn't like it. Check out tabloidist Walters. "Lighten up! This is The View - this isn't 60 Minutes!" I don't think they realized he was putting them down.

BEHAR: "It's about name-calling today." And Elisabeth? "You know what a 'red flag' that is - Commie in this country."

O': "Did I offend?...He's a socialist, not a Communist...I'm not a partisan...You take it way too seriously. Your name is Joy, you should be joyful!"

WALTERS: "Can I go on about you instead of you picking on us?" Now she gets a glimpse of what Elisabeth feels everyday.

O' to Sherri: "I love you, by the way."

SHERRI: "I'm gonna get all emotional."

WALTERS: "Kiss of death."

BEHAR: "She's not on your side, Bill."

O': "I don't have a side."

BEHAR: "Yes, you do! You're on FOX TV- you have a side."

O': "I don't have a view" and he makes the cross sign with his fingers. And then BEHAR wants to know why Olbermann hates him and grabs his arm. He says "She's grabbing me!" and that"everyone hates me." BEHAR: "I don't hate you. I dislike you." O': "they're just jealous".

SHERRI: reads Obama's quote where he whines that he would be 2-3 points higher in the polls if it wasn't for FOX. She pronounces 'effete' as "EF-FE-TE". Yes, barry and you wouldn't be the nominee without MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NY Times...."How do you feel abut that quote?"

O': "I think it's accurate."

SHERRI: "Why won't Sarah Palin come on your show."

O': "I want her to come in. I have outfits she can wear!"

Then O' on video goes postal on Barney Frank and they discuss it.

BEHAR: "I don't believe anything you say." O' asks Sherri if she's got the Kool-Aid for Joy and then tells Joy she's a "Kool-Aid drinker".

BEHAR: "You drank the Kool-Aid on George Bush for eight years!"

WALTERS: "He's (O') the same pussycat he has always been."

Then they show an altar boy type picture of O' on his book. BEHAR: "That's what the devil will look like when he comes."

They're discussing how he doesn't like "American Idol" and "Dancing with the Stars". WALTERS: "Yeah, but can't you have some entertainment?"

O': "Yeah and that's why we watch 'The View'!"

BEHAR: "We are in the NY Times on a regular basis these days. DO NOT minimize the effect of The View!"

BEHAR: "I shop at Kmart"

WALTERS: "Sarah Palin won't do this show either."
