Liberal Name Caller Behar Denounces Conservative 'Name Calling'

By Justin McCarthy on The View
NewsBusters.org

Joy Behar once again scolded conservatives for inflammatory rhetoric without realizing her own hypocrisy.
On the February 28 edition of "The View," the panel spoke highly of the late William F. Buckley before Behar jumped in to compare the conservative icon to modern day conservatives. Behar chastised those who "name call and yell about things." Perhaps she should chastise herself.

In a span of a year, Behar called the Bush administration "liars and murderers," opponents of embryonic stem cell research "the extreme religious right," men "idiots" who "think with Mr. Happy," and suggested Republicans attend "Klan meetings."
If Behar is concerned about name calling, she should clean up her own glass house first.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck noted that "we tend to high light those on the extremes." Hasselbeck pointed to Michael Moore as an example on the left, but could have mentioned former "View" panelist and September 11 conspiracy theorist Rosie O’Donnell.
