| that Dang President I love the show Nashville and the show he View had the gal that plays Scarlet on, well she was just going to perform and opppps breaking news in and there is Diane Sawyer and Georgie Steppanopolis so no more View they are now showing the pres an vice pres doing a news conference. OK if it was a national emergency but in 20 min the noon news would have been on, and I certainly could have waited till then to hear what he has to say about gun reform.

| Boycotting the View until Whoopi and the others apologize for the comments about supporting pet store and pup mill buying...the innitial comments weren't so bad it was the after public outcry rampage she went on about how dogs don't really matter and her cohosts ranting about all these radical animal rights people...who velieve pup mills are bad...then they brought Michael Vick into it...hidious women.

I can't say I am a devoted viewer just off and on if I see a guest that I like, I really can't handle the first part of the show, because I could not care a flying you know what about Joy's views or the others as well

| on that puppy mill topic regarding the view, that surprises me because one of their original hosts Lisa Ling did a big documentary on the horrors of puppy mills, I saw her on several shows a year or two ago talking about it. Some of the people that go in and get the dogs out were with her. Oprah spent the whole hour of her show with Lisa talking and showing clips on the mills. So I would be surprised if she was not on the view as well. I thought that the exposure she got from Oprah probably did more to promote the horrors of puppymills more than anything.

| Whoopi Goldberg defends right to buy puppies at pet stores on The View - National Dogs | Examiner.com This is the most unbias article on it...the view deleted all the comments by antipupmill advocates off twitter and facebook and Whoopi got really nasty on her fb, twitter producers made her delete her somments. Apparently she took it to ger blog which she also later deleted. I love Lisa Ling, and watched the Oprah show you are talking about, I like how Oprah pointed out she supporrs, rescue adoption and responsible breeders.

| that's ok I did not think you were dising me, just explaining why I did not know much about what goes on with that crew other than seeing some guests off and on. After reading the article I can not believe how she was not aware of puppy mills, LOL that's why you can not get your opinions from these type of people. BTW do you have a twitter account, I can't decide if I need one, I don't think I would start following anyone but it sure sounds like there is a lot news on it.

I have used it to 'follow' a few people and to help a few rescue with contests, but I can't figure twitter out so my daughter does it for me. I prefer facebook, it's more user friendly for people like me who just want to post pics and chat in a group or keep in touch etc, well fb has gotten a lot harder to use recently to be honest but it's still easier to navigate for me-I use it on my phone... yes, I'm the one who takes and posts pictures of like everything just because I can...breakfast, lunch dinner.

I prefer it that way actually as I am always sneaking in "chat time" on YT or FB (like now lol) between doing 4 other things-just took dog potty in the yard and checked the mail, have dinner on the stove and changed a diaper, then came back hit USER CP (here) and saw your message...I'd be useless in any real 'chat' style forums rooms etc-although I'm pretty darn fast on FB because my phone gives me a jingle when I get notifactions to certain groups etc... I'm in a few different types of groups on FB, one for white miniature schnauzers, one for nonstandard colored yorkies, Downton Abbey (from PBS) RHO groups, the kid's school has both a fundraising group and PTO group, Idle No More group, Raw for Beauty raw and alternative medicine group, love my schnorkie group, and red women's buffalo dance group (sundance off shoot for nondancers). If you're interested in any let me know I'm PM you the links as I'm not sure about suggesting some in a post it might be a violation of the rules here...and I'll have to switch to table to post a link my cell stinks at it-back to the stove lol.

| I can't stand that man's voice. I'm so focused on how bad he sounds, I don't hear what he's actually saying.

I was not aware of this at all. I wonder if it was posted on YT back then and I just missed it. Seriously, I can't even digest how ignorant the majority of celebrities seem to be about pet stores (hi britney, paris, whoopi, and a gazillion others) - HOW can they not know??? I would say I often agree w/ Whoopi's opinions bc she usually isn't dogmatic about her opinions - and is extremely open minded and non-traditional...I'm all on board with that. However, in this case - it's totally clear that she let her anger about people disagreeing with her cloud her ability to see the facts. She let her desire to be right overtake her ability to see and do right . It's like she's saying: "Listen, I don't want anyone telling me I can't buy clothes that were made by children in a sweat shop" -- that is absolutely ridiculous, selfish, and self-interested. ICK. Who on earth would say and believe in that, and think it's right? It's no different than the puppy mill/pet store issue. Sorry to hijack thread....just really had to comment.
