Never let it be said that I am not an equal opportunity Independent. First I blogged today about the democrat party eating its own, and now it's the republicans' turn. It seems that all is not well these days in deranged right-winger land, as there's word this weekend of a major rift between The View co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck and her follow conservative, reality TV star Sarah Palin (link to full story at bottom).You may recall that Hasselbeck (for some mystifying, head-scratching reason) has long been a huge supporter of Palin, even taking the time to aggressively campaign for then-VP candidate Palin in 2008 and appearing at a number of Palin rallies that same year (as pictured above). Well, I guess a lot can change in two years, because now Palin reportedly won't even return Hasselbeck's phone calls.
The linked story reports that Hasselbeck feels "violated" and "used and abused" by the so-called Mama Grizzly. A source is quoted as saying: "Elizabeth feels used by the former governor. She stood up and did everything she could to get Sarah to the White House. She was expecting to have made a friend for life."
And now Palin reportedly "wants nothing to do" with Hasselbeck, which Hasselbeck "resents." Also, I would guess that likely adding salt to the proverbial wound is the fact that Palin -- while not giving the time of day to Hasselbeck -- has recently been cozying up to fellow reality show diva Kate Gosselin, who's set to make an upcoming appearance on Palin's reality show. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for the likes of Kate Gosselin, after all.
