Whoopi Goldberg: Pelosi Admirer Extraordinaire
Sure, politicians always appreciate a warm welcome when they appear on daytime TV talk shows. But the welcome House Speaker Nancy Pelosi got today on ABC's chick TV show "The View" was more than warm - it was downright steamy.
Even before Pelosi walked on stage to take her seat at the round table, the show's moderator, Whoopi Goldberg, and its co-hosts - with former news anchor Barbara Walters leading the pack - started flirting with the speaker's husband, Paul, who was seated in the front row.
"You wanna take a look at Nancy Pelosi's handsome husband?" Walters asked the audience. Yes, came the answer in the form of whooping and hollering.
Poor guy was actually blushing. Then the show's hosts asked him how long he and Madame Speaker have been married.
"Forty-four years," Mr. Pelosi managed between pained glances in the direction of a blanket, a paper bag, anything to hide under.
Whoopi got the pleasure of introducing Speaker Pelosi, who she noted is the first woman speaker of the House who, somewhere along the way, managed to raise five children.
But Walters was still stuck on Mr. Pelosi, unfortunately for Mr. Pelosi. And this is where a little blushing turned to a Code Red alert, four-alarm fire.
Trying to shout over Whoopi and her other gabbing co-hosts and excited audience members, Barbara turned to Guest Pelosi and said she has heard Whoopi say before that she'd "do Paul Newman."
"And I think she'd like to do your husband as well," Walters deadpanned in that quintessential accent that made her the subject of late-night lampooning over the decades.
Of course, Whoopi being Whoopi, she couldn't let that one go, which is where the speaker begins blushing.
Yes, Whoopi implicitly acknowledged, she'd like to do Mr. Pelosi - but she might take his wife while she's at it. "I would do her as well. But we should wait on that because you're still in office, I don't want to cause a problem."
Oh dear, would this were not live TV.
As you might expect, Speaker Pelosi remained silent underneath her signature permanent smile. And her press office later remained predictably mum on the specter of Whoopi-on-Speaker action.
"She enjoyed being on the show," Pelosi spokesman Brendan Daly told us via email. "It was a fun chance to talk to (primarily) women around the country about what Democrats are doing in Congress."
And he said Pelosi enjoyed her little thrust and parry with the show's token conservative host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, who challenged the speaker's opposition to the troop surge in Iraq.
As for what Pelosi thinks of Whoopi's wild crush on her and her hubby, Daly said in an email, "Didn't get to ask her about Whoopi comments..."
Yeah, we didn't expect so.

x covers the important stories.

I'd agree here. The view was only an entertaining story when the fat pig was still on there.
At least she gave us something to make fun of. Now it's just a show with a bunch of Women talking about nothing.
can you narrow it down for me?
I'm glad conservatives stay away from personal attacks..

Oh dude, get a life. Anything goes when talking about that tub of goo.
again, which tub of goo would that be?
Hit another nerve I see. The libs "screw" up and make dumb
statements and it is reported. Whoopi is noted for her stupid
remarks. Guess she just cant break her "habit". Pun intended.
It's not really a stupid statement, since it's Whoopi's job to be risque and controversial. What's stupid is "conservatives" slavishly hanging on every utterance spewed on The View
It was a news report posted on drudge, dummy. I posted
it because it shows the how low a liberal will go. Both
Whoopi and Baba. Shows their "taste".
caveman - what?
This I agree with. I'm not sure why anyone is considering "the view" news.
WHoopi is on the view?
It was posted on Drudge, but I question the "news" categorization.
You can stop at "It was posted on Drudge". No further explaination needed.
LOL... Drudge isn't always right, but he does a damn good job!
His accuracy record is better than most the rest of the media! He also does tend to be conservative on his personal views, but treats both sides pretty equal when it comes to reporting.
How accurate does one have to be to post a link to a blog? Are you talking about spelling? That would make sense.
