A Thing of Beauty… Pam Geller Takes on Leftists on Joy Behar’s Show for Attacks on Palin (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on February 9, 2010
A thing of beauty… Pamela Geller of the wonderful Atlas Shrugs blog, is outnumbered by liberals on Joy Behar’s inane talk show who froth at the mouth to malign former governor Sarah Palin, but Geller still lands solid punches.
She takes on these liberal junkyard dogs with gusto, despite their attempts to shout her down, for the hypocritical left attacking Sarah Palin for a few palm notes, for discounting Barack Obama’s overuse of teleprompters as a bizarre crutch, and for not offering any arguments of substance against Palin, only nasty disrespect and name-calling, as well as mocking the majority of American people. There is no civil discussion, all childish bullying from host Behar (who can barely put two thoughts together intelligently) and her left-wing guests.
It’s a heated exchange, with Ron Reagan Jr. and Geller really going at it tooth-and-nail in this loud panel battle.
Pamela, bravo!
A bit of bio background on “Little Ronnie” Reagan from Wikipedia, which should shed light on Geller’s unflinching comments about liberal/progressive Ron Junior not “knowing” (thus, not embracing or sharing) his father Pres. Reagan’s conservative views and principles:
He is currently a political pundit for the cable television network MSNBC, and was a talk radio host and chief political analyst for KIRO radio in Seattle until his show was canceled on August 8, 2007. On September 8, 2008, The Ron Reagan Show made its debut as an Air America Media radio show; the program was a three hour daily show airing from 6–9 PM (ET) and was cancelled when Air America went bankrupt on January 21, 2010. He is notable for his liberal or progressive views, which contrast with the conservative views held by his father.
Reagan became more politically active once his father left the White House in 1989. In contrast to the former president, the younger Reagan’s views were decidedly liberal. In a 2009 Vanity Fair interview, Reagan said that he did not speak out politically during his father’s term because the press “never cared about my opinions as such, only as they related to him [the president],” adding that he did not want to create the impression that he and his father were on bad terms because of political differences.
…Reagan later wrote an essay titled “The Case Against George W. Bush by Ron Reagan” for Esquire. He was quoted as saying that he voted for Democratic candidate John Kerry in the 2004 presidential election.
On October 31, 2008, Reagan officially endorsed then-Illinois Senator Barack Obama for President in the 2008 presidential election.
Junior proudly stands for everything Senior abhorred and fought against — socialism, welfare entitlements, big government, loss of freedoms — during his entire political career… so Geller calling Ron Jr. out on “knowing” his father is more than justified.
Pamela Geller Defends Sarah Palin on Joy Behar Show | February 8, 2010
From Examiner, Pam Geller appears on Joy Behar’s show to defend Palin:
National columnist and founder of the popular blog Atlas Shrugs, Pamela Geller, appeared on ‘The View’s’ Joy Behar’s new show on Monday to discuss Sarah Palin. As expected, the Behar take on Palin is, as usual, disrespectful and vitriolic.
It is interesting that Leftwing Hollywood types such as Behar will quickly harp on Palin’s ‘prompt-words’ written on her hand while totally ignoring Barack Obama’s constant reliance on the teleprompter, even when addressing elementary school children.
For going on 36 hours now, following Palin’s address and question-and-answer session at the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, the leftwing media have gone on a feeding frenzy about Palin’s palm-notes.
From Gateway Pundit, Pamela Geller Destroys Ron Reagan Jr. on Joy Behar Show (Video):
The great Pamela Geller from Atlas Shrugs destroyed Ron Reagan Jr., Joy Behar and her other hateful liberal guest on the Behar Show last night. Geller gave Ron Jr. the spanking he never had, but needed. You can tell she got under that naughty boy’s skin. He looked like he was going to cry.
Comment from Gateway Pundit reader Merle:
Pamela’s point about the attacks on Palin only galvanizing the conservative base was spot on! How dare those libs speak so contemptuously about Palin and millions of Americans. Joy should keep talking. We hear her disdain and mockery, and it is pointed at the people who make America work. Joy’s words will come back and bite her. Pamela Geller is a great spokesman for America. Pamela is like Palin in that she is NOT afraid.
And a reader comment from las at Atlas Shrugs:
Pamela, you are a special mensch… thank you.
You are totally awesome. Walking into a vipers den and holding your own. Thank you for not giving one inch. And thank you for being one of the very very few with a voice to walk into the miasmic fog that defines mainstream media and thank you for vaporizing the heavy effluent molecules of the so-called Progressive (ha!… there’s a misnomer) Left. These people are just so incapable of stepping out of the echo chamber of their collective idiocy.
And as for little Ronny Reagan… I’ve seen that dweeb scream at his opponents numerous times, “you don’t know my father, I knew my father, you’ve never even met him… blah blah blah”. The guy is clueless… he has no idea that he is fair game in the struggle for ideas. President Reagan had ideas… little Ronnie… not so. NO! Ronnie… you don’t know your father… you’ve seen everything about the man, but learned nothing. Yes you ARE an embarrassment to your father’s legacy, and YES and you father would be greatly ashamed.
Pamela, thank you… we need more strong men and women like you.
Joy Behar referenced Palin’s Thanksgiving 2008 MSNBC interview, with a turkey being slaughtered behind Palin during the news interview, as “proof” of the woman’s lack of intelligence. This interview had followed Palin’s pardoning of a turkey.
Hmm… the interview was conducted by MSNBC, one of the most liberal news stations in the nation that has gone nutsy-cuckoo overboard with its lack of journalistic integrity to discredit and mock Palin constantly since her VP nomination. The reporter asking the questions of Palin had full view of the turkey being slaughtered (unlike Palin), and either didn’t think it was a big deal since they WERE at a turkey farm, or didn’t notice the slaughter happening behind Palin, or saw what was happening and suddenly thought it would be so maliciously funny to not change the cameraman’s angle, letting viewers see the turkey’s slaughter, so as to make Palin look like a sadist. Yeah, because Palin doesn’t have eyes in the back of her head, I blame the MSNBC reporter and/or the cameraman, if anyone is to be blamed at all. Newsflash… turkeys die at Thanksgiving. And Palin saved one of them (but leftists were outraged that they saw one being killed behind her and blame her for it… buncha wooses).
For those who happily and hungrily devour their turkey dinners at Thanksgiving and are foolishly naive in thinking turkeys aren’t killed to produce said Thanksgiving dinners, well, you really need to grow up.
Here’s the infamous turkey video from 2008… if you’re weak-stomached, you may not want to watch it. Behar is mocking and blaming Palin for this more than a year after it happened, which tells me the left-wing media is running scared.

Thanks!
No one has mentioned the obvious fact that, regardless of the smackdown that Pam dished out to those 3 cackling hens (yes, especially wee little Ronny), but Pam is a GORGEOUS woman and clearly conducted herself in a manner showing exceptional dignity and class. Pam, it was your beauty and grace under pressure that got those liberal piggies foaming at the mouth.
Face it. You were a rose among thorns. Happy Valentine’s Day, you beautiful mensch.
