About: Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Bill Maher Face Off On 'The View'

The action
Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Bill Maher had an incredibly awkward exchange on Tuesday's "The View," after Hasselbeck confronted Maher over a joke he told about her last year.
Maher was speaking on his HBO show about the detention of CBS correspondent Lara Logan in Egypt. He joked, "New rule: now that Hosni Mubarak has released Lara Logan, he must put her intrepid hotness on a plane immediately. In exchange, we will send Elisabeth Hasselbeck."

The reaction
People are saying:

1) Lets get to the root of Elisabeth'­s dishonesty­: She started her tirade with saying that Lara Logan was raped. She then says that Bill Maher made that joke about trading her for Lara Logan. Here is the actual timeline:
February 4, 2011: Lara Logan released from Egyptian military custody
February 4, 2011: Bill Maher makes joke about swapping Lara Logan for Hasselbeck
February 11, 2011: Lara Logan is assaulted in Egypt.
Now, Elisabeth tries to conflate her argument by implying that Bill Maher made that joke AFTER the rape had occurred which would have been in very poor taste. That is simply not true. Elisabeth is a dishonest individual­.

2) Hasselbeck always ends up looking like a petty, whiny fool when she tries to confront anyone who has insulted her.

3) She can be grateful that Maher was on his most gracious behavior & decided to go easy on her. Had he been in a vitriolic mood I guarantee he would have made her stomp away in tears. Intellectu­ally she's light years away from Maher. It could've been nasty but Bill kept his cool.

4) She keeps saying "It's not personal" when it clearly is. She keeps saying "I'm not hurt" when she clearly is. She criticizes this ability to be funny, when its clearly a personal opinion. Where was her profession­alism?
And the Republican­'s complain about the 'gotcha media'? Geesh...

5) Elisabeth went into a battle of wits unarmed, and lost.
She will never learn.

6) Quite possibly the most whiney woman I've ever seen.
"You can't hurt me"... as she's sitting there clearly still bruised from a comedian's comments made about a year ago.

7) La Liz needs to learn not to mess with people who have triple her IQ...she looked like the fool she is.
