Please someone put this bitch out of her misery.  There is stupid, and there is retarded and then there is Sherri Shepard from the View.  During one of their famous “talk all at once” debates (this one about evolution) Whoppi Goldberg asks Shepard if the world was flat.  Clearly that question was asked rhetorically to make a point, but Whoppi didn’t count on the depths of Shepard’s knowledge about basic science being more like a wading pool with an inflatable pirate ship in it than the deep end of a regular pool.  Here is their exchange.

There’s not much to say here except for this: When someone asks you a question that you don’t know the answer too, replying with any variation of “…well, what I do know is that I love my kids!” is quite possibly the dumbest fucking thing you could say.  Is it embarrassing that you, a grown woman, don’t know if the world is flat or not?  You bet your giant black ass it is!  But trying to turn it around with “I do know I love my kids” is bullshit.  What?  I can’t make fun of you for being one rung below Corky from “Life Goes On” on the academic ladder simply because you just announced that you love your kids?   Having the ability to love and being a complete idiot are completely separate traits.  Sure, with someone is as dumb as Sherri Shepard clearly is, you have to wonder if she has the parenting skills of a bird and could push her child out of her house at any time purely based on the fact that the kid smells different that day, but all the same, loving and being stupid are separate. 

I’m sure Shepard loves her kids, but I’m also sure that the right thing to do would be to make those kids orphans by dragging their mom away and having her thrown off the “end of the world”.  It will really be some sand dune in the desert, but like she’s going to the difference.
