Congratulations to Elisabeth Hasselbeck. About a month into her new gig at Fox News and she's fitting right in, if her shockingly ignorant comments about "Obamacare" are any guide. At any rate, she won handily our most Outrageous Quote of the Week poll.
Hasselbeck's win was not unexpected given that she was responsible for two of the six entries. Still, her margin of victory - 70, or 31% of the 225 total votes - was decisive. The runner up, trucker/protester Zeeda Andrew's remarks about removing "enemy" President Obama from office, won 46, or 20%, of the votes.
To refresh your memory, Hasselbeck's winning quote described the origin of the term “Obamacare” as something dreamed up by Democrats to glorify President Obama when, in reality, it was a term coined by Republicans to demean the Affordable Care Act.
"We have now a product. …Let’s call it “Obamacare” ‘cause it’s brilliant. That’s what happened, right? So they say, “Let’s sell something to everybody,” because that’s indeed what’s happening… “And we’re gonna call it Obamacare. Why? Well, everything ‘Obama’ people liked not too long ago. Obama hats, Obama bibs, Obama shirts. We’re gonna sell this, too, under ‘Obamacare.’” It’s the worst nickname given to anything in the history of this nation."

We'll have another poll up later in the weekend.
This bimbo not the brightest bulb in the socket, but it doesn’t matter to the suits. As long as she has dyed blonde hair she’s in.
Hannocchio the RINO is infatuated with this broad. Somebody better put a leash on him.
