Is this supposed to be funny? I'm serious... is it?
Because if so, I'm simply not getting it. This is the dumbest thing I've heard come out of the woman's mouth ever... and that's saying something.

I have never heard anything remotely intelligent come out of her mouth and the fact that she has written a children's book is very scarey!
Posted by: Francine | Friday, May 08, 2009 at 10:24 AM
This woman is an idiot! I too think it's scary she wrote a children's book and that parents would buy it for their children.

Calling Joy Behar an idiot would be an insult to all idiots!

I'm amazed that this woman even gets air time.
Posted by: Chad Eldred | Friday, June 19, 2009 at 10:01 AM
I cannot stand Joy Behar. She is a complete idiot. How this stupid woman gets air time is ridulous. I really wonder when she sees herself on tv after a taping of the show the "View" if she is embarrassed. I am embarrassed for her. How do they allow this woman to open her mouth. Did she even finished High School? My 10 year old is smarter than her.
Posted by: Vanessa | Friday, June 19, 2009 at 04:33 PM
I am constantly amazed at Joy's hipocracy. I'm watching the taped show today with Meghan McCain..."we were a little hard on John McCain". PLEASE! They attacked! When Obama was the guest, butter wouldn't melt in her mouth. They attach the conservative and suck up to the liberal. It is always 3 or 4 against 1. Are they afraid to hire another conservative? Elizabeth holds her own - KUDOS!

That woman is retarded, right?
Posted by: David | Tuesday, October 06, 2009 at 04:24 PM
Actually, no she is not retarded ! She is more reasonable than all the people in Fox news....One cries or sorry pretends that he cares....The other is proud of insulting his guests....let alone the so called limbaugh and his show in which you can tell he is dying for obama to fail ( America will fail as a result...because obama is an American president.........Behar is normal!
She has her own mistakes but still she who doesn't make mistakes ?
Pleaseeeee

Wow Allan that may be the most incoherent rambling piece of drivel I’ve ever had the displeasure of reading.
But thanks for clearing one thing - the mentality of those you can't understand the simple logic of Obama failing being good for America.

Joy Behar is a vile woman. That mouth of hers is evil. Wish she would go over to Afghanistan and assault the Taliban with it.
How on earth does she get her own show- who likes this worthless piece of crapp.
Posted by: Katie Stephenson | Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 09:39 PM
She has one opinion. Her own. She is a racist and bigot and and idiot. Why give this unfunny, worthless and stupid moron a show of her own. T.V. sucks.

Joy is the dumbest woman i have ever had the displeasure of listening to on television. She is an embarasment to females everywhere. She should shut her big fat mouth.I dont believe in abortion but being that its legal, too bad her mother didnt do the world a favor and abort her. Just kidding.
Posted by: animalover | Wednesday, December 02, 2009 at 12:43 AM
I loooooove Joy Behar. Can hardly wait each night for her show to air. I agree with her totally and I understand why people don't like her. They have all been brainwashed by Limbaugh. If he is so totally against O'bama, why doesn't he go live overseas with the rest of those that hate us. He could be their leader. He is their poster child. Jackie

How in the world did this woman get on TV.
Her speech is atrocious. To quote her
recently, she said "John Edwards still loves
huh". Huh? Did this mean "John Edwards
still loves 'her'". Nothing uglier than
a Nu Yoik accent, it goes with her vile
mouth. She is a complete moron.
Posted by: Pat | Sunday, January 31, 2010 at 07:56 AM
Watched the View this week and suddenly realized why I quit watching it. Joy Behar!! In my opinion, she doesn't represent mainstream American women. In addition to being very unattractive, the junk her mouth spews out shows her lack emotional intelligence which further detracts from anything she might have to offer.
Posted by: eve | Friday, February 12, 2010 at 12:22 AM
Joy is one of the most uninformed and completey ignorant women on the air today. Her comments about 9-11 and her love affair for Obama is sickening. Danny

Joy Behar-TOP OBAMA LOVER--I'm sick of her remarks aimed at Sarah Palin. Is she sooo jealous or is it that she has such a small mind that she cannot tolerate someone ele's opinion? I will NOT watch THE VIEW any longer because of her!
Posted by: Barbara | Tuesday, March 23, 2010 at 11:33 AM
She is the worst person on television...hands down. I wait for her to say something stupid or ignorant and than laugh about it
Posted by: kennyscotten | Tuesday, April 06, 2010 at 12:14 PM
I'm waiting for the day Joy Behar is no on TV...What a disappointment to women everywhere. Would never watch her "own" show, hope it fails...she needs to be taken down a peg or two....who writes a children's book about politics....?????? She is nuts, oh, I hear the insane asylum calling her, she needs to go back, now....
Posted by: Pat | Wednesday, April 07, 2010 at 11:56 AM
Greetings,
Joy attacked the church and will fail in her attempt to become. People like her and mere defects from self creation. I don't know, why they even let this woman of tv. I am going to pray to God, to deal with her.
Posted by: Apostle | Tuesday, April 20, 2010 at 12:53 AM
The view is now a very 'wide view' since the old ornery broads are all fat! What a lousy show. So one-sided there is no room for debate. Hey Caryn Elaine Johnson - what was wrong with your real name . . . you know, the one your Mother gave to you? Whoopie Goldberg is a nonsensical moniker and disrespects decent Jewish Goldbergs everywhere. How the slober over the liberals and bite the ankels of anyone else.
Posted by: Ron S | Friday, April 23, 2010 at 08:46 PM
I go along with all of the negative comments. I thought I was the only one who hated her. She is a disgrace. I quit watching the show because of her.
Posted by: Helen Perry | Saturday, May 15, 2010 at 06:00 PM
Joy Behar,
I strongely disagree with her the way she has blashed people who are only human and I am sure she has probably done the same.
One is Mel Gibson, he is extremely talented, creative but because he drank too much, said something he later apologized for, over 4 years later you can't forgive him??? For one he did not say it to you, another is why are you bringing it up still as you did the other night on your program.
Why don't you change your show to either just laughs where you're not hurting other people, just because you can, or you try to promote love and world peace. Why not look at the good in people for a change. This time of tv programing and talk needs to STOP.
Posted by: Cherie Hovey | Sunday, June 06, 2010 at 02:19 PM
Joy Behar is an homely, overweight broad
with a lower class accent and the delusion that she is is intelligent and funny. She seems to have it in for men maybe because very few have ever been interested in her-can you blame them
She also gets angry with anyone who disagrees
with her sometimes convoluted opinions.

This bubbleheaded drooling liberal O-bot is just the perfect type of dimwit to write cartoon books about Barry 'slick master Obama.'
Its a good thing she doesn't have enough brain cells to be embarrassed by herself.
Posted by: Jeff914 | Tuesday, June 22, 2010 at 01:04 PM
Joy Behar is a dribbling, jealous idiot.
She can not get her mind what there is of it off of Sarah Palin....What's the matter Joy you jealous.....you even make fun of the way Sarah talks, have you ever heard your goofy accent...??????
I have pretty much stopped watching the View, because it is a port hole to ignorance when Joy the pathetic one asks almost every guest "What do you think of Sarah Palin." And she gets that stupid look on her face and worse yet the stupid wiggle.
By, By, Joy.......you are beneath every woman in the world.

Joy: you only wanted that show so you could bash Sarah palin and her family. What about you shacking up with some guy for 25 years. What did your old fashioned Italian family think of that? Weren't you ashamed that your daughter should have to live with an adulterous mother? Grow up and leave Sarah alone!!! Marge mclaughlin

Disgusting individual, absolutely beyond disgusting. Total arrogance, ignorance on parade, - diarrhea of the mouth, constipation of the brain - deliberately offensive, an living/animated pox.

@Allan
I see you are one of the many who repeat that Limbaugh's desire to see America fail is the same as wishing for America to fail. I certainly hope in the year that's passed since you posted that you have opened your eyes and realized that every time Obama succeeds America gets the shaft.
Whether it's his Stimulus plan that did nothing but waste money, his precious Obamacare that routinely shows how his opponents were correct, or his nationalization of businesses every time the man succeeds America gets another knife in the gut.
Seriously, please tell me you've gained a little wisdom in the past year. Rush was completely right on this.
Posted by: Steve | Monday, October 04, 2010 at 12:52 AM
Some people on the left are excellent marketers that know how to sell ice to Eskimos. They know how to describe snake oil effectively and how to avoid discussions with those who won't drink the Kool Aid. Obama is probably the most skilled example of this.
Behar, on the other hand, is pratically a female Rick Sanchez. She'll invite much smarter and much better informed guests on her show that she'll shout down, and she'll come up with or agree with the dumbest statements around.
The earthquake in Haiti? A guest blamed it on Global Warming (in an argument talking about how dumb Sarah Palin is) and Behar was being a giant bobblehead. In a discussion about race she said that it's impossible for someone to be a racist if they are a minority. Months ago Rush Limbaugh was doing that sarcastic tweaking thing he does on the issue of Harry Reid's racial comments on Obama. A couple days later I had the misfortune of watching her show and she was discussing this and completely bought into Rush's sarcasm. It was so funny because I remembered Rush's show so I knew up front that she was being had. Hilarious! She is not ignorant, she is dumb. Truly dumb.
Posted by: Steve | Monday, October 04, 2010 at 01:04 AM
These bleeding heart liberals pertain to be so caring and so sympathetic but if you really listen to what they say on a daily bases they are the most hateful and irrational bounce of crazies in the media. They spew hatred and anger towards anyone that doesn’t agree with them. They are the spoil rotten baby boomers who never grew up.
Posted by: Rosemary | Thursday, October 14, 2010 at 11:07 AM
I sometimes reflect upon the essential death of the once great, beautiful, classy, dignified and intelligent American woman. Such a monumental tragedy this clearly now happens to irrefutably be. Behar is a perfect example of such.
Posted by: John | Friday, October 15, 2010 at 12:22 PM
joy behar is yet another example of a loud mouth new york liberal who thinks everyone is actually interested in what she has to incorrectly say. oh yes she believes in freedom of speech alright ....her own and others who agree with her....certainly not those who would disagree with her....she wont listen...she chickens out by getting up and leaving her own show....c u next tuesday
Posted by: rob planinshek | Monday, October 18, 2010 at 10:11 PM
Joy Behar is a disgrace. She's a bleeding heart liberal who should be booted off the view for her extreme "views'
Wake up and move on Joy ..no one cares a hoot about your opinions.
Posted by: Regina Hill | Wednesday, October 20, 2010 at 11:35 PM
Why did notJoy walk out when Rosie O'Donnel accused the White House of what happened on 9/11? Why does this true honest to goodness biased moron has her own show? Just the sound of her voice makes me shiver. Why are her ratings such that her show is not cancelled? Her ignorance is often so flagrant that is impossible to ignore. She is NOT funny and she is not likeable. Can anybody give me an explanation or a satisfactory answer?
Posted by: Marina Cantlon | Saturday, October 23, 2010 at 09:30 PM
I can not stand this woman. How can a person like this gets time on television to say all the BS that she says? No wonder the Country is going down hill, because people like her.
Posted by: Carla | Tuesday, October 26, 2010 at 12:52 AM
I could not believe Barbara Walters sat there today and did nothing about Joy Behar calling Sharon Angle a bitch, more than once, and that she is going to hell. Where is Barbara's professionalism?? I know Joy has none but she never gets any heat for the things she says. She is a loud mouth, liberal New Yorker who thinks she can say and do anything. What a hypocrit!!
Posted by: Marianne Hailey | Tuesday, October 26, 2010 at 02:41 PM
The VIEW is a VERY ANNOYING SHOWS. A bunch of annoying and idiotic and rather stupid women sitting and chatting. I am a woman and I don't understand why any women would watch them. Seriously. Even if the VIEW is the ONLY show on earth left, I won't watch it. Disgusted with the stupidity of those women...Now that is what is giving women a bad wrap.
Posted by: JC | Tuesday, October 26, 2010 at 04:23 PM
STOP WATCHING THE G'DAMN SHOW, THE VIEW. That will take them off the air. Comon' I rather watch INFOMERCIALS of jewelries, or toasters or somethings than the View. I lost all respect for Barbara Walter to even join that show. Anyone smart should not be so desperate to be one of the 5 idiots.

Posted by: betsy | Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 12:16 AM
George Orwell already wrote a book about people like Obama. It was called "Animal Farm". Joy adds no intelligence to any conversation, and who in their right mind would buy a book she wrote for their kids.
Posted by: Alex | Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 12:57 AM
Wow. So many of you people leaving comments on here are absolute morons. Let's review: "The View is a very annoying shows."
Really? It's more than one show?
"These bleeding heart liberals pertain to be so caring..." Pertain? Do you mean "pretend", moron?
And my personal favorite: "...hipocracy..." I think you mean "hypocrisy?"
I know you conservative types distrust intellectuals and wear your stupidity on your sleeves, but I had no idea basic grammar and spelling were such a challenge. No wonder it doesn't bother you when people like Bush and Palin butcher the English language every time they open their mouths. And something tells me you'd be the first ones to complain about immigrants not learning to speak English. Oh, sweet irony.
Posted by: lynn | Wednesday, October 27, 2010 at 10:02 PM
OK Lynn, you are an excellent example of liberal hate and intolerance. Did it make you feel superior to correct everyone's grammar? Joy Behar has a right to her beliefs but if someone has a different opinion she immediately belittles, makes moronic faces and spews hatred. Yes I am conservative but I do listen to the "other sides" ideas, reflect and think about it and then make a decision based on rational thinking. It is sheer ignorance on Joy Behar's part that she blindly follows the liberal agenda and doesn't have a mind of her own.
Love how liberals label themselves as tolerant but if anyone dares think differently from them...stand back and the hatred and condescension will flow. I stopped watching The View a long time ago because of Ms. Behar. I can respect someone having different political views, but for heavens sake take the blinders off and see that maybe both parties have 'good' and 'bad' ideas as well as seeing that many politicians from both sides are flawed. I hope I am never as judgmental, mean spirited and intolerant as a bleeding heart liberal.

Hey "lynn".. I thought pronouns like "Lynn" were supposed to be capitalized. Or do the rules not apply to you?
Posted by: FU_Lynn | Thursday, October 28, 2010 at 03:57 AM
I quit watching "The View" because of Joy Behar and her idiotic big mouth comments. My circle of friends also refuse to watch the show now because of her chronic conservative Republican bashing. Get her off the air!
Posted by: Suze Fry | Thursday, October 28, 2010 at 11:24 AM
We can put an end to "The View" by boycotting the show. They want the controversy that Behar causes because they look at it as Ratings. Once the Ratings go down and no one goes to the show, I can't see the show continuing.
Barbara WaWa obviously condones the vulgar language Behar uses.
The best approach is to tell your friends to boycott the show and once it goes off the air Behar will get what she deserves.

@FU_Lynn: Oh my God, you are an idiot. Since when did Lynn become a pronoun?? It is a name and in this specific case part of a truncated email, hence the use of lower case letters.
And no, the rules don't apply to me. :)
Posted by: lynn | Thursday, October 28, 2010 at 09:18 PM
Okay, if Behar's comment that the "B****" word was the wrong word to use on Angle because Behar considers it a compliment because her co-hosts are her "B****s" isn't the last straw with her viewers than her viewers are lamebrains. Behar doesn't know her to apologize and never will. To come up with an excuse like that and to think she could get her audience to buy it only confirms that Behar thinks her audience consists of lamebrains. SHE HAS INSULTED THE INTELLIGENCE OF HER AUDIENCE!!!
Posted by: Jill | Friday, October 29, 2010 at 09:37 AM
Thanks for the enlightenment, lynn.
Yea, that Palin, what a dolt. Just look how she can’t draw any crowds, hardly raises any money, the candidates she endorses all lose. Most of all she’s so insignificant nobody mentions her, most of all a bitter blog commenter who doesn’t know the difference between speaking and writing, believes a common language is inconceivable and evidently hasn’t traveled much around the globe, though no doubt considers oneself a “world citizen”.
George W. Bush -
Yale University, B.A.,1968
Harvard University, M.B.A.,1975
Governor of Texas 1994 - 2000
U.S. President 2001-2009
Yea, what an idiot. We need someone who’s considers himself a constitutional scholar, gives flowery speeches from a teleprompter full of empty rhetoric and thinks there’s 57 states.
And a VP who’s such a big f*#king deal he thinks that every great idea in the past two hundred years has required government to succeed. Like 7-11 or Dunkin Donuts (which can’t go to because he doesn’t have a slight Indian accent).

Joy Behar is a stupid b*&ch. I don't know how she got her own show. She is jealous of everyone and criticizes people who are smarter than her. I'm surprised at Barbara Walters for having her on "The View". Behar has no class at all,she just has an intelligible brain. She should hide under a rock and be ashamed of her horrible personality and the stupid things she says. jess

Heres a woman so full of herself that she has the nerve to tell the nearly 2000 year old catholic church how they should run things. nevermind the fact she isnt even catholic! And for all the recent talk about civility and getting along, i guess joy wasnt there when WE were getting that lecture. It's funny, the right is always being called cruel, ignorant and hateful. so whats her excuse? i guess you can say by the lefts own standards and stereotypes she will someday make a fine conservative. This "lady" is poorly named because i see or hear no JOY in her whatsoever. And lynn, its one thing to be intelligent. Beating people over the head with it just proves how worthless you really are.
Posted by: Logan | Friday, February 18, 2011 at 04:30 AM
What an ignorant B****. She complains on National TV that Charlie Sheen only giving $1.00 per ticket from his road show to the Japanese relief fund. Where was Japan during Katrina? Well back to her complaint about Charlie, I never did hear her say how much she was giving to the relief funds of Japan. Someone should ask if she is matching him dollar for dollar. She is an outright disgrace to me and all I know as an Americans.
Posted by: Jesse James | Thursday, March 17, 2011 at 11:17 AM
Joy must be really dumb...when she first started out, she was a pretty funny stand-up comedienne, NY accent and all, but since she's become such a flaming liberal, I'm pretty sure she's lost half of her audience. Her HLN talk show has dismal ratings, and a lot of people (including me) quit watching The View because of her. Why do celebrities continue to commit career suicide by outing their controversial political views? Don't they realize they'll lose half of their fan base by doing that?
