Thread: McCain Grilled On "The View": Sarah Palin, His Abortion Stance, His Obama Attack Ads,

No Headlines were hurt during the making of this thread, that sound you hear is the collective slap on the heads of Republicans...which hopefully they succeeded in hurting themselves
The ladies of "The View" confronted John McCain today for lying in recent attack ads, pressed him on abortion and questioned his choice of Sarah Palin.

In arguably his toughest interview yet, co-host Joy Behar asked McCain, "There are ads running from your campaign... Now we know that those two ads are untrue, they are lies. And yet, you at the end of it say you approve these messages. Do you really approve these?"

Barbara Walters then threw in her condemnation, telling McCain: "You, yourself, said the same thing about putting lipstick on a pig..."

Watch McCain try and explain the lies:
McCain was also pushed on his stance on abortion, saying he thought Roe v. Wade was a bad decision. Saying he'd nominate justices who strictly interpret the constitution, Whoopi asked if that meant she'd be returned to slavery:

Whoopi also pushed McCain on the separation of church and state, saying that if he believes in it, "did it not give [him] a moment of pause" to choose Sarah Palin as his running mate. He responded in part, "God has a plan for the world and that we should do what we can to lead as good a lives as we can...":

I bash McCain far more than the average person, but this isn't something worth calling him out on. Whoopi is a fucking moron and should not be allowed to speak into a dixie cup and string, let alone on television. Maybe if she was a little more educated about her country, she would have known about a little thing called the 13th Amendment.
