Barry Manilow epitomizes the liberal reaction to being forced to share a stage with someone with whom he disagrees- instant flight! Manilow is apparently cancelling his scheduled appearance on the mostly-liberal gabfest show 'The View' because new host Elizabeth Hasselbeck is a conservative. According to TMZ, Manilow said of Hasselbeck,
In an exclusive statement to TMZ, Barry says, "I strongly disagree with her views. I think she's dangerous and offensive. I will not be on the same stage as her."
So it seems that is is perfectly acceptable for liberals and/or Democrats to only go where their views will not be challenged, isn't it, Barry? I seem to recall the major Democratic candidates for President refusing to appear in a Fox-sponsored debate because they consider Fox 'right-wing'. I suspect that the real reason was that they might actually have to answeer questions that are not softballs about how terrible George W. Bush is and how unfeeling/corrupt/warmongering/[insert your preferred criticism here] the Republicans are. It seems to be a liberal failing to be unable to handle a frank exchange of disagreeing viewpoints. Maybe it is because they are so used to having a liberal echo chamber in the mainstream media?

The funny part about this
September 17, 2007 - 14:37 ET by Darth DutchThe funny part about this thing, in my opinion, is that it's not like Elizabeth is a fire-brand type of conservative where there are legitimate complaints or concerns. She's about as unassuming as a puppy dog.
And, it's not like she has said controversial things like, oh I don't know Rosie. When she is able to get a word in, she is pretty coherent and states the conservative argument pretty well. I'm not sure why that is "dangerous" or "offensive" to Barry.

Not hard to imagine that statement with a strong "gay accent". I can just hear it " I will NOT be on the same stage as HER". Then of course, the limp wristed hand gesture, followed by the snap of the fingers. What a f@g.

September 17, 2007 - 16:17 ET by ThisnThatWell, we now have a plan. All it takes, apparantly, is one (1) conservative to make the cockroaches seek out the dark corners.
Ok, everybody, listen up. Here's the the way it goes. Blonde, you go down the block and get hired by the Miami Herald. We'll give them 3 months for all the editors to leave. MB, get elected to the state senate. No one will run for re-election. Someone's got to take over the Post and the Times. Richard, appoint two responsible people, place them on the delivery trucks, and expect them (Post, Times) to capitulate within weeks.
No need to bring cans of raid. But since you all are going deep into enemy territory, be careful, very careful. Don't panic; don't dispair; and for God's sake, don't over react to all the mush you're going to witness.
Take care, and God Bless! Remember, just like we practiced. You may all get medals for this.

September 17, 2007 - 14:40 ET by unitaryexecutiveI love how liberals describe conservatives as "dangerous."

September 17, 2007 - 14:53 ET by Lame CherryDear Mr. Manilow,
Please return 70% of your fortune which Conservatives paid you in concerts and record sales as I know you will not want to have their dangerous money in your bank accounts as you are so pure.
Furthermore, please contact the Pentagon and see what your payment will be for your own security share as while young men were dying in Vietnam you were on stage acting like Elton John's not out of the closet weird brother.
Thank you as I know the trauma you are facing having all the Conservative millions in your accounts and want to be rid of it.

September 17, 2007 - 14:57 ET by Free ThinkerIt tells me one thing when the View has to book Barry Manilow as a guest. I didn't even know he was still alive, much less a political figure. If he feels threatened by Elizabeth then I would say he needs to reconsider his own beliefs. This seems to be the new tactic of anyone on the left - our ideals don't stand up to scrutiny and debate, so lets just avoid scrutiny and debate.
The thing is, he DOESN'T
September 17, 2007 - 15:02 ET by drillanwrThe thing is, he DOESN'T have to talk about the war or politics ... Just talk about your stupid new CD and concert tour ... concerts from the past ... folks in the business he's worked with ...
Geez! These "entertainers" really have lost all contact with perimeters!
I see people such as Gary Sinise on talk shows ... He resists the need to spout off "politics" ... He just explains his support and entertaining for the troops and his work for the Iraqi children.

Even now?
September 17, 2007 - 15:01 ET by Hero SquadWas there actually danger of Barry Manilow's appearance turning into a political row with Ms. Hasselbeck?
Interesting that he's so tepid with his beliefs that he fears a one-on-one with Elizabeth. Wow, I had no idea she put the scare on so many libs.
Having said that, it's sad to see Barry succumb to such nonsense. I've always been a fan... heck, the first record I ever bought with my own money was Barry Manilow Live back in '76. Even have myself an autographed photo, but now that I know Barry wouldn't even want to talk to me because he thinks my views are dangerous, well, that's rather disappointing. I'm sure that more than a fair share of the middle-aged women who he counts as his fans share the same views as Elizabeth. Would he snub them, too?
Can't you just shut up and sing?

September 17, 2007 - 21:47 ET by MikeB"It could save on hair stylist expenses." I don't think so. At the very least it would double the hair stylist expenses. Do you think there would be time for one stylist to do both Silky Pony and Barry? If it was tried, it would result in a huge cat-fight between the two of them. It would be awful: swinging purses, the hair-pulling, the two of them hissing, "b*tch, he's mine" at each other. And, if Edwards has secret service protection, there would be a weapons discharge, then a lot of paperwork to fill out. No, I think Barry hosting a candidates debate would not be a good idea.
