Bush is scared of The View. It's the only network talk show that takes him on, and people talk about it. A lot. By now, everyone has heard about The View's big on-air political spat between Rosie O'Donnell and Elisabeth HasselFuck. I thought it was great and that Rosie needed to do it. Some people freaked. I cheered. So today's "episode" was gonna be a ratings grabber, even though Rosie was already scheduled not to be there (it's her mrs.' birthday). In Rosie's place today, Kathy Griffin, my personal choice to take that seat on the panel when Rosie leaves the show at the end of next month. Perfect. But we didn't get to see it on the East Coast. President Dubya seized this highly anticipated hour of television for a lame press conference. Well, how else could he get people to watch him? The only way I want his face preempting The View is for his impeachment hearings. 

Considering how "off book" the producers of The View allowed the show to go during Rosie and Liz's big fight, I think today they should have put Bush in a small window in the corner of the screen while the ladies debated his gibberish in real time. That would've been great television.
