Whoopi Goldberg Rips Mike Pence for Not Showing ‘Respect' to North Korea
[Breitbart] Monday on ABC’s "The View," co-host Whoopi Goldberg criticized Vice President Mike Pence for what she deemed to be a show of a lack of respect for North Korea by not standing for the entrance of the country’s Olympic athletes.

Partial transcript as follows:

HOSTIN: I thought that Mike Pence said that it was inappropriate to make political statements at sporting events? Wasn’t he that guy who walked out of the football game because people were kneeling and not standing?

JOY BEHAR: Well he would say that’s in their own country is what he would say to that

HOSTIN: But he’s representing the United States of America isn’t he?

GOLDBERG: We have to be respectful because what we do know about politicians is they end up sitting with people that you and I say well, why are they sitting with them? So if you’re in Korea, you need to stand up. You need to stand up and show respect.

#4 ABC's Miss fart cushion stuck, dedicated on stupid. Racism, Christaphobia are mandatory for the lack of View.

She has stated that her stage forename ("Whoopi") was taken from a whoopee cushion; "If you get a little gassy, you've got to let it go. So people used to say to me, 'You're like a whoopee (fart) cushion.' And that's where the name came from

#9 Hi EC. Educate me please. What is the origin of the picture, and what is that multi-pointed star shown over one marcher to the left. Thanks if you know this. I makes me aware that we can search for words or phrases, but I am unaware of any publicly available image search. (Maybe too many cat pic searches)

#10 Okay. I decided to look into it. Google's 'best guess' is Adolf Hitler gives a speech during 1936 Olympic games held in Berlin, Germany. HD Stock Footage - YouTube.

The mustaches were a hint. It turns out you can reverse lookup many images. images.google.com iirc. I had no idea. I also hit 70 this week, so maybe that is an excuse? No? Ah well.

#12 It's the opening ceremony of the Berlin Olympics 1936, with the French team giving the "appropriate" salute to Adolf.

#15 You know, if her pet thugs can't be bothered to show respect to the US Anthem, shit on her and her flaming tyrants. Why does the left hate humans so much?
