The "B" Word

B is for Behar - as in Joy Behar.

B is also for Bitch - as in Joy Behar.

Last month “The View” co-host Joy Behar appeared on the Bill Maher show and called Michelle Malkin a “selfish bitch”.

She's now bitching about John McCain because he didn’t say anything when a (female) supporter referred to Hillary Clinton as a “bitch.” 

Ms Behar doesn't mind throwing the B-word around herself but objects when others do it ...


Partial Transcript, The View, November 15th: Watch and Listen

WHOOPI GOLDBERG: A woman at a John McCain rally said to him, “how do we beat the bitch?”

      JOY BEHAR: He is a gentleman, usually, McCain. It would have been nice for him to say “Well, you know, I think you’re referring to my opponent and I don’t particularly like the way you’re refer to her.” That’s all. It would have been nice and respectful to say that. That’s all.   [Applause]

     SHEPHERD: What I’m saying is the same could be said, she felt Hillary Clinton was a bitch. And so she said it.

     BEHAR: No, that’s a personal assault on the woman.

     SHEPHERD: You do personal assaults on President Bush.

BEHAR: Yes, I do.

    SHEPHERD: So what’s the difference? What’s the difference?

    BEHAR: The difference is that I don’t like him.  [Laughter]

Apparently the rules about calling people "bitch" are extremely complex, involving gender tensions and social dynamics as well as depending on who's addressing whom.

Somebody should bitch-slap the bitchy Behar before the next bitchfest begins.
