Elisabeth Hasselbeck needs "cooling off"

by Mr. E, Staff Writer

This just in: 2008 is an election year.

Also just in: Elisabeth Hasselbeck is so far to the right that The View can now only been seen on widescreen televisions. And while John McCain is one day older and Sarah Palin continues to not answer questions, it appears that Ms. Hasselbeck is getting her panties in a bunch and taking it out on her co-hosts.

A longtime staff member on The View chatfest says, "It's not as bad as during the Rosie [O'Donnell] era," but the presidential election has GOP-er Elisabeth Hasselbeck "really upset" with her liberal co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar. I understand View creator Barbara Walters has called a "cooling off" meeting to keep a lid on things.

I'm not sure about you, but when I'm warm I take my shirt off. Perhaps Barbara should recommend the same for Elisabeth. That would be some View. Actually, it would almost get me to watch. Almost.
