I realize that over on Political Nanny, I said I wouldn’t be watching The View today (or, ever, really, except when someone like Michelle Obama is scheduled to co-host).
But I didn’t make any promises about clips from YouTube, and thanks to Huffington Post for directing us to this one:
Sherri Shepherd, mother of a boy who I hope is paying extra-close attention in school, treated viewers today with her insight on world history. Namely, that Jesus was here before just about anyone else. Just watch.
Now, what I love is watching Whoopi and Joy try to talk over her, cover her, save her ass on this one. Sherri should recognize this, learn to yield the floor, quit digging herself in deeper with her hopeless explanations, which always come down to what she believes not what she knows. Remember her explanation of how the earth might be flat?
Good for her that she has beliefs, because that would only leave speech recognition and directions home to bounce against the emptiness of her brain. She might want to take her son to the library to get a little more info on this one too.
