The View's Elisabeth Hasselbeck is at it again - making her fellow co-hosts angry (although, that's most days isn't it?). On a recent show, the women were talking about Sarah Palin's promotion of aerial wolf killing and then showed a PSA that actress Ashley Judd did, speaking out against the process. Hasselbeck, always one to defend Palin no matter what, was OK with killing wolves (apparently) in winter from airplanes - said celebs should speak out against abortion instead.
Video after the jump!
After viewing the PSA of the wolf killings, Elisabeth drew analogies to abortion. The other women wanted her to stay on topic, which, uh, she didn't. Hasselbeck said the caribou population was being protected by the slaughter of wolves, defending Sarah Palin and then went on her rant about abortion. I think they're two totally different topics, but that's just me.
Elisabeth had a problem with vocal celebs who speak out about animals but not about babies being killed in abortions. Perhaps those same 'said celebrities' believe in a woman's right to choose?
She, of course, has the right to view things the way she wants - but I often wonder, as her children get older and start to form their own opinions, will she squash their take on things? She seems slightly controlling, in my opinion. Will she allow her children to have their own views on such subjects?
And what if her daughter got pregnant as a teen (or heck, even as a grown, young woman), or her son impregnates his girlfriend and the subject of abortion comes up? She's against it obviously (which is fine, because really, no one is for abortion, but some of us, believe in a woman's right to choose what's in her own best interest), but would she allow her kids (or, as young adults, would she support them, no matter what) to make those sort of choices for themselves?
Anyway, on to the insanity....
