    Default What you say when you have no answer - Whoopi & Behar

    They have no answer to the important questions. Don't even want to know the answers. Will deny the answers. Will lie about the answers. ANYTHING so long as they retain the "right" to a) avoid personal responsibility b) terminate a life to make their life easier.

    You can prove to them that life in fact does start on day one, for example, and you will be met with

    Ghoulish Whoopi: 'It Doesn't Matter' When the Unborn Have Rights, 'I Don't Care'

    From the pro-life side, the entire issue of abortion is about "when does an unborn child get their rights as a human being?" And on Thursday’s edition of The View, Whoopi Goldberg proved that the anti-life side of the debate not only refuses to engage in that part of the question, but flat-out doesn’t care what the factual answer is.

    As they were nearing the end of their first Hot Topics segment about abortion and the possibility of Roe v. Wade being overturned, Goldberg (who also proved she didn’t care what the Holocaust was about) raged as self-described conservative Alyssa Farah Griffin got to the heart of the debate and why the pro-life side was so adamant about their position:

    GRIFFIN: This is an uncomfortable conversation we have to have. At what point does a baby in the womb have rights separate from a mother?

    GOLDBERG: Listen. It doesn't matter when you think it is. If I don't think that it is --

    [Crosstalk]

    GOLDBERG: Listen. I don't have to tell you.

    BEHAR: It's none of your business.

    GOLDBERG: It's your decision. What you do with your body, and how your family works.
    “For me, I don't care what your religious beliefs are,” Goldberg sneered. But Griffin kept at it and noted: “it's not even a religion” question but rather “a philosophical debate” that we need to have as a society.

    ‘It Doesn’t Matter What You Think!’ Whoopi Shuts Down Alyssa Farah As Abortion Debate Explodes On The View

    The View host Whoopi Goldberg shut down guest co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin during a fiery segment on abortion rights, telling her, “It doesn’t matter what you think” about when life begins, it’s up to each woman to choose based on their own beliefs.

    In response to the leaked Justice Samuel Alito-authored draft opinion that would overturn Roe v. Wade, Democrats held a symbolic vote on an abortion rights bill that was defeated by a 49 to 51 vote Wednesday afternoon — with the lone Democratic “no” vote coming from Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV).

    On Wednesday’s edition of ABC’s The View, the hosts discussed the bill and the broader issue of abortion. After some general agreement on things like the need for more support on maternal health, things got contentious.

    Sunny Hostin blasted Republicans, noting that “64% of Americans that have been polled do not want Roe to be overturned,” and predicted the issue would energize Democratic voters.

    “I think people are going to go, and they’re going to go to the voting poll in large numbers, and they’re going to vote these people out. And they need to be voted out,” Hostin said.

    “Your numbers are correct, 71 percent –” Farah Griffin began, and Hostin cracked, “I don’t get the numbers wrong!”

    “She’s Sunny Hostin!” Joy Behar exclaimed, to laughs.

    “According to Pew Research, 71% of Americans believe there should be some limitations on abortion. This is forcing a conversation about –” Farah Griffin continued, but Hostin interrupted.

    “Some limitations. But not outlawed,” Hostin said. The Pew data that Farah Griffin cited shows 61 percent of Americans “say abortion should be legal in all or most circumstances.”

    Farah Griffin then tried to start a “philosophical debate” about when a fetus develops rights, but Goldberg and the other co-hosts were not having it:

    ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: But yes, this is an uncomfortable conversation we have to have. At what point does a baby in the womb have rights, separate from a mother?

    WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Listen, it doesn’t matter what you think… When you think it is. If I don’t think that that’s when it is —

    ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: Is that in, is it the ninth month? Is it the third trimester?

    WHOOPI GOLDBERG: Listen. I don’t have, I don’t have to tell you —

    JOY BEHAR: It’s none of your business.

    WHOOPI GOLDBERG: It’s your decision, what you do with your body and how your family works, and for me. I don’t care what your religious beliefs are.

    ALYSSA FARAH GRIFFIN: It’s not even a religion. It’s really more a philosophical debate —

    WHOOPI GOLDBERG: (over crosstalk) Wait, wait. Rob, freaking out. Rob is freaking out. We’ll be right back.
