The so-called 9/11 mosque controversy just won’t go away—not when Fox Newsers such as Bill “Papa Bear” O’Reilly are still stoking it, as he does in his customary bulldozery way in this clip from “The View” on Thursday. Clearly, Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg aren’t having it.

Our nation’s vice president braved a big test of his diplomatic finesse on Thursday, submitting to the rat-a-tat questioning of one of the least inviting panels any politician might have to face in his or her career. That’s right—Joe Biden was Thursday’s special guest on “The View.”
