Elisabeth is such a ridiculous individual - 'victory' in Iraq - grow up Elisabeth.

She is full of BS. Absolutely disgraceful.

[kennylondon123]

However outspoken as she is ,i dislike that woman (elizabeth).. she has a thing of twisting stories around and make it sounds like she's talkin sense..when clearly she's full of shit!! ..AARRRRRHHHHHHHHH !!

You know, I hate how harshly people come down on Elisabeth. I am a democrat that voted for Obama and I don't always agree with what she says but I think she is an american who represents A LOT of republicans and we should respectfully take her opinion, even if we don't agree, just like her co-hosts do. She is actually pretty brave to come on a show where there are people with such different opinions as her on such hot topics all by herself and be honest day in and day out, so I applaud her.

I think she is stupid and has a small minded view of the world like her friend Sarah Palin.

i think the problem with Elizabeth is not that she's stupid. she's obviously well read and knows what she believes. i don't think she knows how to express herself. as eloquently she tries to speak, i feel like her thought is always at the tip of her tongue but she struggles to find the appropriate way to say what she's thinking. i think ppl need to cut her some slack.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions! Elizabeth is the only conservative on that panel, ofcourse people are going to hate her because she's the only person with different opinions. I think its unfair that she is the only one with different opinions. I praise Elisabeth immensely because of her bravery for giving her opinions every day, despite constant criticism and being alone.

[Edwardbrooklyn]

This is just a argument between an American an a group of Citizens of the World.

Elisabeth is the american and every body else are the other.

[geoplanetaire]

I HATE ELIZABETH SO FUCKING MUCH

[GrapeSwish87]

Elizabeth is soo naive its truly amazing.

[TheStephanieQueen]

FIRE ELIZABETH!!!! I stopped watching the View because of her. I never want to hear her view on anything, I've heard enough.

Love the Ladies though, all of them except her.
