*Zowie*!1 - Meegan McCAIN just (verbally) attacked Joy BEHAR!1 *Update/VIDEO*

[UTUSN]

The hosts were each saying stuff about Poppy BUSH, then Joy got her turn and I think was adding something maybe not flattering. I had tuned out while the Poppy stuff got going so I didn't hear what Joy said, but then Meegan popped in angrily saying, "We're talking about a president" his death or something" and berated her for whatever she said. Joy was a bit off balance at the sprung vehemence but recovered enough to say she was talking, don't interrupt, adding something "interesting" - and the McCAIN said, yelling and in her face, "We don't *CARE* what's interesting to you!!!!!!!!!!" And Whoopi cut away to commercial, with the camera lingering on both of them leaning across the table at each other and Joy pointing her finger at McCAIN.

They're back from commercial, camera to Sunny to say her piece, with Joy later joining in as normal.

***********ON EDIT: (Stepping into it) - about Meegan. Yeah yeah everybody feels whatever in their own way, so it was striking this morning that the BUSH granddaughters were on Today being bubbly and "CELEBRATING" (their word) the life, while we went through a month of Meegan's legubrious lording. Yeah yeah, everybody's own way of whatever is still telling of their emotional intelligence, SO SAY I!1

1. Anger is poison

nt

[UTUSN]

2. Well, how to argue with somebody with a Dali Lama avatar, HAH!1

[UTUSN]

3. Whoa, it continues!1 - On a later topic, Sunny was telling about when she got married and

how was getting advice from family, when Meegan interrupted asking, "Were you a virgin?!1"

And Joy flipped out, pointing her finger at her saying, something like you don't ask things like that (and more).

[vlyons]

4. The DL would call it debate

and the how part would be with discriminating awareness and logical and cogent arguments based on observation, experience, and effectiveness. He would ask in regards to trying to persuade people to a point of view, "How effective was that anger thing?"

[UTUSN]

6. Well, I would engage DL in "debate" and respond that anger is as natural as anything else

and everything that exists, animate or inanimate, occupies its own reality and right-to-exist and has its appropriate time and place to express itself.

That said, "winning" up against the DL is fairly much futile - not fair!1

So you (not DL) are in the Religion group. What *is* it about that Cooking & Baking one?!1 -----------Joking, am *JOKING*!1

[vlyons]

8. Although I sometimes read posts in the religion group

I'm not "religious" in the conventional Christian sense. I consider Buddhism to be a practise, not a religion. and yes, there are ways to use the energy of anger, which is very sharp, hot, and clear, to effect a positive and beneficial outcome. But few people know how to do that. Mostly people flash anger to act out some story line or other to aggressively push a subjective point of view. That way is what I consider to be poison, because it is unmindful, without skill, ineffective, and just creates a dichotomy of resistance. IMHO

[UTUSN]

9. So it's not the anger, per se, that is poison. IMHO!1

[vlyons]

10. If aggressive anger is harmful to self and others

it's poison.

[UTUSN]

13. I'm sometimes a light-hearted fellow who almost always detests arguing, but will continue to

note here that you are making a distinction of a particular *type* of anger. And I say again that any of the other (emotions?) could be subdivided into a whole outline of shades, which could then be baptized with "acceptable" or "unacceptable" manifestations. Metaphysics?

Whew - well, *this* has been fun!1 (Hope it's done!1) Haha

[vlyons]

14. I speak from the Buddhist view

Negative emotions are what keeps people stuck in suffering. However they can be transformed into aspects of enlightened mind. If you're interested in knowing more, you can google "klesha."

[UTUSN]

15. Thanks, I'm a dilletante/generalist & stick to the bare minimum of what I know.

I know the teeny bit about Buddhism, like about taoism, stoicism, just enough to not hurt my brain, whatever, know that bits from here and there can be utilitarian/therapy cynically to relieve conditions. I do it in spots, but hate that cynical approach, like when I hear some say they use classical music to relax.

Thanks again, but I'll pass!1

5. If ABC continues to employ Megan...

Then they don't mind one bit what she says as it brings in the ever sought after, "Ratings".

[nolabear]

7. Be interesting to watch later. Now Abby Huntsman's there it's gotten testier.

She and Megan feed off one another it seems. And the whole irritable vibe is amped up.

I happen to be glad there’s a show where women argue politics rather than talk about celebrities and shill for products. They piss me off-including Joy Behar, even when I agree with her-but I know people who would never see any political discussions otherwise see it and see women argue for their opinions. I get a bellyful sometimes but I’m glad it’s there.

11. Video at link:

I haven't seen Behar that animated before. McCain needs to shut up -- it's not her place to try to quiet fellow co-hosts just because she doesn't want to hear what they are saying.

[UTUSN]

12. Thanks!1 Joy didn't even say anything negative about BUSH, just mentioned SHITLER

Am going to put the link in the o.p., crediting you.
