The Fug

Confessional time: now that Star is off The View, and Rosie is on it, I am TOTALLY watching it. I know I once said some mean things about Rosie’s vest,  but she’s kind of rad on The View, both because she’s really good at the daytime talk show thing (which I had forgotten), and because I enjoy watching her watch Elisabeth Hasselbeck squeak, because it seems pretty clear that Rosie is just tolerating Elisabeth for right now, and that, when the time is right, Rosie will unleash sweet, merciless hell down upon her, and lo, it will be sweet. 

I have no rational reason for my general distaste for Ms Hasselbeck, really, except for the fact that I think she makes all young women — and she IS representing our demo — look like dunderheads. Beyond that, there is something about her that grates on my nerves. And today, that “something” includes this:

OH NO SHE DI’N'T!

The kilt is cute — I love a kilt — but that shirt is about five feet too long on her teeny little body, and leggings? Elisabeth “Token Conservative Who Does Other Conservatives No Favors” Hasselbeck in leggings? Is it possible that this means the starlets of the world will start shunning the leggings in favor of something else? Something that hasn’t been worn by someone who works on The View? Could we be so lucky? Could Elisabeth Hasselbeck be our unlikely little savior?

Ironic, that.
