No! There was an intern, Mimi Alford who had an affair with JFK when he was in the WH. More than 50 years later she wrote a book about the affair. Mimi came on the View and Barbara was ruder than I've ever seen her asking why she should write about such a private matter when it could hurt members of JFK's family. Barbara had an affair with Senator Edward Brooke when he was married and then wrote about it in her book.

It's always a victory for me when I remember why I entered a room.

No, they had an someone on the show who had an affair with JFK and wrote a book about it. Barbara had an affair with a senator and wrote about it in her book.

I guess I'm in the minority but when I get a chance, which isn't often, to watch I enjoy the expanded hot topics. I'd love to see Mario as the 4th chair.

I did see the segment with Larry Wilmore and it was really great. I just wish he'd had more time.

Ya; I know I said I'm done, but it "happened" to be on today (hee, hee), and Babs was on. Much better. The show needs an anchor.
