Whoopi Goldberg defends Michael Vick's dogfighting in first day on 'The View'

what a NASTY thing she is...

she should be MADE to watch a few hours of it and then see if she still thinks it's sport.

Kids...anybody else think Babs Walters gave the Whoopster a high five on this one? Hmmmmmm? In the MSM the Vick story (like the departure of old whatshername...Rosie who?) are so last week. And here we (and the NYDailyNews) are making The View all 'fresh' again (and talked about...and hopefully for the pockets of Walters and ABC 'viewed.') My thoughts, Barbara told her to 'be' outrageous...outlandish...just out there. And The View would be timely again. If we ignore them...they will go away...

And I used to watch this crap...but I am over it (and I am the demographic they 'want.')

To answer your question, it’s because PR’s one of our territories. Just like Guam or American Samoa.

To remark on your comment, why the heck would we do that? I don’t see any reason I would vote to allow Puerto Rico independence. And why in the world would anyone want to pay reparations? We’ve improved their infrastructure, and they certainly don’t owe the U.S. “proper” anything.

i grew up in Western Virginia, have family in NC, GA, FL, and SC - no one knows from dog fighting. what does Whoopi know about the South? looks like a slam against Southerners to me........

People who live in dream worlds.

Note: By U.S. proper, I mean the actual 50 states comprising the union. The way I wrote that seems kind of confusing.

Goldberg said that "from where he comes from" in the South, dogfighting isn't that unusual.

"It's like cockfighting in Puerto Rico," she said. "There are certain things that are indicative to certain parts of the country."

Yeah...Like murdering 'The Brothers in the ghetto'  and absentee fatherhood, because of it.

[Chode]

thank you...

[Bender2]

Okay, okay... we knew Whoopi would go far off the beaten path. Now we know how she believes those southern Blacks are okie dookie on dogfighting and those Puerto Rico folk are okay with cockfighting.

But... I wonder...

What she thinks white Jews feel... about Schwartzfighting?

[HangnJudge]

What does Whoopi know about the South? looks like a slam against Southerners to me........

Agree, it's OK, just us Degenerate, Hillbilly, Coalmining, Moonshiners,
killing off a few dogs for kicks.

P...ssed me off to here this

""It's like cockfighting in Puerto Rico," she said. "There are certain things that are indicative to certain parts of the country."

Indicative?? Buy a dictionary dope!!

“Four dumb tw@ts spouting their moronic views.....whats the attraction?”

Reference “Soccer moms”.

Whoopi, here’s one of my favorite quotes from Mark Twain: “It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.” Learn it...know it...live it.

Goldberg said that "from where he comes from" in the South, dogfighting isn't that unusual.

Gotta wonder how Whoopi would react to the same argument being made in defense those kids who hung the nooses from a schoolyard tree down in Louisianna ...

[srmorton]

I live in NC and have heard of those engaged in dog fighting GETTING ARRESTED! It's against the law!

To follow Whoopie's logic, we should let Muslims who come to America continue with the barbaric honor killings of women who have disgraced the family because that is "indicative" to Muslim culture. Give me a break!

Planet of the Apes logic.. "Monkey does not harm Monkey"..
