On today's live taping of The View, conservative co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck complained that she didn't receive her usual invitation to the White House Christmas party.
"Maybe I didn't do enough for the Republican party this year," Hasselbeck said on the show.
Turns out, it was never the intention of the White House to not invite her or her husband, Tim, to the soiree.

Following today's live show, Elisabeth received a call from the The White House, and they both had a great conversation," Karl T. Nilsson, the executive publicity director of The View told Usmagazine.com. "The President's office apologized and explained that she and her husband were indeed invited to the White House for Christmas and were sorry that it did not arrive. It was simply an oversight." Before finding out that the snub was unintentional, Hasselbeck said she had a "bone to pick" with the White House.
"I love Christmas cards," she said. "I love getting them. There is one in particular that I usually like, and it's an invitation to the White House Christmas party. Not the big one but the 20th one down the road that you get the leftovers at the party. I'd be going to that one. No invitation this year."

Hasselbeck, the only fan of President George W. Bush on The View, spent the past campaign season working for the Republican campaign. She even introduced Governor Sarah Palin at some of the rallies.
"Both Elisabeth and Tim are hoping to make plans for a visit to the White House in the early New Year," Nilsson told Us.

She probably wants to get a chance to blow Dubya before he's out of office. She'll have to get behind Condi.

Desperate! Party it up, Hon, because you damn sure won't be on the list next year.

**cupcake** · December 16th, 2008, 08:09 PM

She is just ridiculous

**happy8** · December 16th, 2008, 08:11 PM

I'll give her this one. She put up with a lot of shit (and dished it) this election year. She deserves the dinner invite, it's her last for a while.

I agree

seems the only view you can have on The View is a democratic View, all else is not welcome ..... which is why I don't watch the View.

I could never deal with the crap they dished out to Liz, right or wrong kudos to her.
ps I think she's very pretty

I hope Obama does well no matter what party you voted for we are all in this together

**NicoleWasHere** · December 16th, 2008, 10:29 PM

Um, Elisabitch... Maybe, just maybe, not even BUSH wanted you to be there?

Not true. They had a Republican co-host on (can't remember her name) who managed to not only hold up her end of the debate but get in some excellent points. So it's not the political view that isn't welcome, it's Elisabeth's delivery. She tends to go for shrill parroting of Fox News instead of forming her own opinions and presenting them rationally.

had would be the keyword there

She is beyond fucking annoying.

Maybe Bush has amnesia and forgot to invite her after getting all those shoes thrown at his head?

**WesCAdle** · December 17th, 2008, 10:17 AM

Shit all I have to do is go on TV and whine about not getting invited to the party and they'll hook me up??? For a number of reasons, I doubt it. I really despise this whiny ass bitch - moose shit for her stocking this year.
