Millions Have Fought For Whoopi Goldberg’s Right To Not Know What ‘Suffrage’ Means

Today on The View, Whoopi Goldberg (dressed as a Navajo jewellery saleswoman from Tuba City, Arizona) continued to press the topic that has quickly proved to be the show’s brand-new, post-election argument starter: same-sex marriage.

Very little has changed in the hosts’ positions (and Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Sherri Shepherd continue to advance the idea that gay marriage means that churches will be sued, dismantled, and rebuilt into Abercrombie & Fitch superstores), but at least Goldberg was kind enough to start things off on a new level of inanity by confessing that this “suffrage” thing that people have wanted throughout history? She’s not really sure what that is! Maybe it’s about suffering? Kinda sounds like it! “I guess it’s when black people had to, you know, they didn’t want to die for being black,” Shepherd offers. Yeah, it’s either that or the right to vote. You know, whichevs!
