Now, Even Sherri Shepherd Treats Elisabeth Hasselbeck Like ‘The Stupid One’

For all too long, Sherri Shepherd has stayed relatively quiet on The View, keeping a low profile (except for the occasional blow-up at Bill Maher) and generally avoiding the sort of “flat earth” gaffes that would draw the pity spotlight away from her cohost Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Today, though, in the midst of another Hasselbeck political rant about Barack Obama’s association with William Ayers, a surprisingly prepared Shepherd jumped in to rebut the show’s token conservative with a “Wait, wait, wait — no you don’t!”

Following her interruption with a laundry list of facts, dates, and counterpoints, Shepherd was eventually cut off by Barbara Walters, who was not ready for the cohost to do anything but smile beatifically and occasionally chirp, “Ludacris!” Is our little Sherri all grown up and ready for war? Watch out, Elisabeth: Sherri Shepherd’s got a whole fleet of angel-babies at her command — and they’re hungry!

    Ms. Hasslebeck embarrasses me tremendously. She is a complete American dimwit and it distresses me to think that people like her give others of us who are americans but ever so different than she a bad name. She should be fired. I suppose that the good point is maybe that Ms. Jones is receiving a better education while on the show than she did while in school.
