I’ve been spared this whole Elizabeth Hasselbeck thing because I don’t watch The View. But I did a bit of YouTubing last night just to figure out who the heck she is. Wasn't she one of the Republican sorority girls in Animal House? No, she came from Survivor: Australian Outback to deliver us all from the Bush era. She seems a good omen, the beginning of the end (we pray) that happy place where we all wake up from this nightmare of anyone thinking it's o.k. for people like that to be in charge. All I have to say, as she might, is: :> But I do hope she enjoys her dinners at the White House for now.

In honor of Ms. Hasselbeck I post one of my daughter's entertaining photographs, which makes about as much sense as her being on television.
