According to the liberal co-hosts of “The View,” anything unethical is a-okay so long as Barack Obama is the one doing it.
On Tuesday, the women were busy expressing their outrage over reports that personal data from 50 million Facebook users were improperly mined by data firm Cambridge Analytica for use by Donald Trump’s presidential campaign.
But they started singing a completely different tune when co-host Meghan McCain pointed out that Obama did the exact same thing in 2012.
“I don’t completely understand the scandal now since this has been happening since 2012,” Meghan began. “The Obama campaign did this brilliantly. They used micro-targeting and data mining.
“So, the double standard I don’t understand right now is…it happened under Obama and it was lauded by the media as being genius,” she said. “And now the Trump campaign did it and it’s a Cambridge Analytica scandal.”
At that point, Joy Behar asked if what Obama did was the same thing. Meghan explained, “Yes, it was micro-targeting and data mining.”
But Sunny Hostin didn’t believe her. “It’s different though!” she proclaimed, before going on to accuse Cambridge Analytica of feeding a “misinformation campaign” and Fox News of “pushing this narrative of a Deep State.”
Can Sunny really not see her own double standard there?
Her co-hosts’ idiocy didn’t deter Meghan, though, and she continued to push back against their hypocrisy:
“This has been going on for a long time and I think the problem right now for people like me is, again, I am against this wholeheartedly,” McCain said, noting that she did consider Cambridge Analytica to be a somewhat “shady” company.
“But I think it is interesting to me that there wasn’t a problem with it when the Obamas did it,” she pointed out again. “And now there’s a problem when Trump did it.”
It’s amazing how much certain people are allowed to get away with by the media just because of who they are or their political affiliation. Obama and Trump did the exact same thing, but you certainly wouldn’t know it from the way the media is addressing the issue.
Share this to help spread the truth about the media’s hypocrisy over Obama’s data mining scheme!

Just as godless liberals have always denied the truth God's existence, they will always deny the truth spoken in their presence which they don't want to believe....
Now there are liberals who will tell you that they believe in God or that they are Christians but their actions as liberals who support those that embrace evolution, homosexuality, abortion and the rejection of God's WORD reveals what is truly in their hearts... And it certainly isn't the love of Christ.

I say we should keep them on air. The more idiocy on the left, the better it is for common sense people to understand they have a Trump Derangement Syndrome. I wouldn't hire Behar to clean my toilets.

I enjoy the view to hear different opinions, this was not on the show today, but I think it is time for Hillary to go home before she falls apart and make her commentary where she can keep from being damaged in public. I don't really like listening to her when she disparages us outside the USA, its like revealing all your family secrets and dirty laundry in public, besides it has won her the nickname of Mrs. Whine-alot
Joy Behar needs to keep her big mouth shut especially when she hasn't a clue, nor does she even know POTUS TRUMP! She's nothing but a pig in disguise. Worthless Liberal Bi*ch. I can't even stand the sight of that C**t! Liberal douche bag she is! That's right OBAMA did the same thing but it's ok in a liberals eyes. Well you can all to f**k yourselves!!!! Now that TRUMPs doing it, it's not ok by you.....nothing but a bunch of uninformed, uneducated, idiotic, double standard, back stabbing M.F.'s like you liberals. We don't need any one of your lame ass for this country to flourish and move forward helping TRUMP make this country great again. Get over yourselves and move the f**k out of this country if you don't like how things are going. Bubye ScumBag!!!
No surprise here, liberals and anti Trumpers are NEVER going to believe anything that isn't bad when it comes to Trump and they're certainly not EVER going to believe anything bad about Obummer!

Their show reminds me of the Jerry Springer show. Beating up anyone who doesn't agree with them and not realizing how hateful they are. Funny.
