"The View" Co-host Sherri Shepherd Has Never Voted

[Ichingcarpenter]

On The View this morning, Sherri Shepherd recounted her close call of almost missing the cutoff for registering to vote via absentee ballot for the election in November.

(Shepherd resides in New York, but is a California resident.) And apparently this is the first time that Sherri will be voting...ever! Having turned 18 in 1985, the now-41-year-old has missed out on the past five presidential elections because

she "never knew the dates or anything." She said it was important to vote in this one, though, because otherwise, she wouldn't have a right to complain on The View about whomever is elected for an entire year. (She probably meant to say "four years.")

I pity the person she endorses.

[tularetom]

1. She makes Hasselbeck look like a mensa member

[Ichingcarpenter]

5. She makes Ralph Wiggum look like a genius who I hope she endorses

[Elidor]

2. Why anyone is interested in anything that ignorant twit has to say is beyond me

She sucks all the intelligence out of a room just by entering. She is the epitome of an ignorant know-it-all. And there are millions just like her out there. I hate stupid people.

[Atman]

3. Did they put her on this show just to for us to ridicule her?

Dear god...Next they'll have Kelly Pickler as the host of Brain Bowl. Who is this woman and why is she given air time, to make the most stupid among us feel smart???

.

[AndyA]

4. The world breathes a collective sigh that this woman doesn't work for NASA.

A rocket scientist she ain't. :eyes:

[Disturbed]

6. They hired her so that the others would appear to be

intelligent in comparison.

[ProgressiveFool]

7. *sigh* now that was a state of affairs that could have been allowed to endure

I'm sure she'll totally forget about it when the time comes, though.

[mudesi]

8. GOOD!

I hope she never does!

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

9. Well... they've got to reach their target demographic.

:shrug:

[Ilsa]

10. Where did Barbara Walters get this woman?

Why does she get a microphone while being one of the most ignorant people in the US?

[ProdigalJunkMail]

24. was she a celeb before this show?

honestly, I had never heard of her before I stumbled into that insanity one morning looking for some background noise as I worked from home... How did she get there???

sP

[Ilsa]

26. As far as I know, BW just pulled her off the subway. nt

[ProdigalJunkMail]

27. sounds about right from the way she speaks on that show...

it is like she is not even in touch with reality...oh well...coffee-clatch-crap, what else can you expect?


sP

[ecstatic]

40. She just put her on for damage control after the Star situation

And she preferred Star at the bigger size.

[MrCoffee]

11. You know, I just don't care at all about what whoever that is does.

[blondeatlast]

12. Dumbest "View" panelist ever. Never let it be said she didn't accomplish anything. One truly has to

work at that--it can't possibly come naturally.

She's buddy-buddy with Patricia Heaton, you know.

[Subdivisions]

13. Networks dumbin' 'em down. You can't have intelligent and

well-informed people spoutin' their propaganda on nationwide teevee, now can you?

[KatyaR]

19. The networks are looking for people "just like you and me."

Which goes to show you that TV executives think we're all a bunch of stupid morans.

Unfortunately, there are probably a lot of people who really like her. :banghead:

[mkultra]

14. flat world

isnt this the one who didnt know if the earth was flat or round? video on youtube

[Berry Cool]

17. The very one.

You know, there's no shame in being ignorant. Ignorance can be cured. Stupid can't.

And there's no worse kind of stupid than the kind of stupid that loudly and proudly proclaims its stupidity and doesn't WANT to cure its ignorance. And has a well-compensated forum in which to do so.

That, in a nutshell, is Sherri Shepherd.

Her whole shtick can be summed up as: "Is the earth flat? Is the sky green? Is the Pope Jewish? Who knows? I don't know. How am I supposed to know? And you know what? I don't care. Because who DOES care? I mean, really??"

[BrotherBuzz]

36. Jesus was before the Greeks, too, says "Nothing predates the Christians" Sherri

[greenbriar]

15. she hearts huckabee

she said that once

[Ichingcarpenter]

16. I hope you are right & that she endorses him soon

Its the kiss of death of dumbness itself to any candidate.
It will spread like wildfire on the web and become a running joke.

[blondeatlast]

18. Need a good laugh? Check out the comments on this at Jezebel (a site I LOVE, btw).

Hysterical! :rofl:

[redwitch]

43. Here's one of the comments I found there on a Sherri thread:

"Clearly I'm in the minority, but I actually really like Sherri. I think she is funny and real. Obvi I think it is better for people to be registered/vote, but the reality is a lot of people, particularly women, are in her same boat. I know people in my own family that are in their 40s and have never voted/registered because they don't want jury duty."

[Initech]

20. WTF? How could you possibly not know when to vote?

That's like the first fucking thing they teach you in 8th grade history is what day to vote! :crazy:

[JerseygirlCT]

21. You know, never thought I'd say this, but some people

really are too stupid to vote.

Too stupid to be allowed outside their home by themselves, too.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

22. she is truly a frightening example of ignorance n/t

[Ichingcarpenter]

23. Sherri Shepherd wants $2 million

It's all about the Benjamins.

Though you shouldn't believe what you've read — that the would-be seat-filler is asking for $2 million — she is insisting on more than she is being offered, at least as much as second-tier cohosts Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck are getting paid. Says a source close to Shepherd, "Moving her family to the East Coast full-time is a huge commitment, and both her and her representatives are committed to ABC making it worth her while.

"I think," my mole adds, "that ABC's and Sherri's ideas of 'worth her while' are different.

[Canuckistanian]

25. Yikes. That kind of stupid usually involves mandatory therapy

But, since she's on TV, she fits right in.

[ProdigalJunkMail]

28. when i first read this i got MANUAL therapy

which made me think of a smack to the head...might be more beneficial...

sP

[dommyluc]

29. Unbelievable! What a maroon!

She actually makes the former View host Star Jones look good in comparison. That's nearly impossible! It's really too bad Kathy Griffin has been banned - again! - from this show because Paw Widdle BawBwa was offended by her stand-up routine. Personally, I believe Kathy is MADE for this show, because she can rip apart a hypocrite faster than John McCain's wife can change his Depends on the campaign trail. Kathy would absolutely anhialate Shepherd - and Hasselbeck and Heaton and anyone else of overt stupidity. I would love to see Kathy go after Ann Coulter one-on-one, but that'll never happen because Ann is too much of a pussy, which is unadmirable in any man with an adam's apple of that size. Aren't women offended by having a person as stupid as Sheri supposedly representing their viewpoint on television?

[LibDemAlways]

30. She's a moron. You'd think Walters could come up

with someone with half a brain to fill that seat. She's a moron, too.

[Mike Daniels]

37. Given that Elizabeth took Barbara to Journalism 101 just a few days back

When you get schooled on the basics of confirming a source's identity like Barbara did by Hassleback over the whole Britney/Lufti incident you've lost any real credibility as a serious journalist.

[Swamp Rat]

31. Here ya go:

[Ichingcarpenter]

33. Unfortunately she really does represent a lot of Americans

Everyone has met her or someone just like her almost everyday.

She got her start on 'Everyone loves Raymond' playing Robert's cop partner.
My neighbor told me that since I don't watch it.

[Swamp Rat]

34. She one of many representatives of the American Idiocracy.

[Initech]

39. Really? I always knew there was a reason why I didnt like Ray Romano

And now I've figured it out. It seems a bunch of hardcore right-wingers got their start on his show.

[featherman]

32. She earns $2 million a year from this alone (not counting endorsements

and other income) to be this stupid.

What a world.

[LibDemAlways]

41. I was taken to task on this board yesterday on

an education thread by a poster who informed me that the only way to success is through a straight A average and a degree from a prestigious university. That's certainly all well and good for those who can manage it, but it seems to me that in this country luck and who you know is every bit as important, and probably more so, than what you know.

[AlCzervik]

35. well she's pretty uninformed in most areas from what can see so her not voting

is probably a good thing.

[ecstatic]

38. she's an embarassment many times nt

[DS1]

42. Do they put dumb fucks on TV hoping it'll make the marginal dumbfucks watching it feel better

or just because they speak directly to the rest of the dumbfucks?

[Initech]

46. TV speaks to the "mind" of the dumbfuck

How else do you explain Dr. Phil's popularity?

[Warren DeMontague]

44. The one who LITERALLY thinks the Earth is flat? Good.

She shouldn't be picking anything more complicated than the condiments on a fucking hamburger.

[DS1]

47. Good point!

It's almost as bad as those tshirts which say "Vote for anyone, JUST VOTE!"

:wtf:

[11 Bravo]

45. Sherri will NOT be bringing potato salad to the Mensa picnic.

She is staggeringly, unbelievably, COSMICALLY stupid.

[LynneSin]

48. Who is this woman and why the fuck did they give her a platform on TV to speak?

:eyes:

[Javaman]

49. so miss "the world is flat, jesus came before the Greeks, I can't beat my kids in public" shepard...

hasn't ever voted? Well, gee fucking wiz, paint my ass blue and call me Shirley!!!

[nonconformist]

50. Oh wow, what a freaking idiot. I had never heard of her before, but I just watched a few videos...

The mind boggles. NOTHING came before Jesus? NOTHING came before Christianity? Shit, it doesn't even say that in the Bible! I wonder if she knows that Jesus was a Jew. The world might be flat, because she's never thought about it before?

Insanity.
