Behar: It's Okay Obama Would Rather Talk to Me than Netanyahu

Being a Current TV shill for President Barack Obama isn’t an easy gig. Turns out Joy Behar is more than up for the challenge.

Behar, who cozied up to Obama during today’s taped edition of “The View,” her other day job, rushed to her Twitter page to help defend Obama against the indefensible.

While the Middle East burns and Iran threatens to wipe out (again) Israel, our closest ally in that region, Obama chose not to speak with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Instead, Obama talked about important issues like his wife’s nonexistent political career and being “eye candy” with the “View” crew.

So how did Behar react to those who dared to criticize the One for his misplaced priorities?
