IF she didn't write it herself, and/or plagiarized it, she would be joining great company. Practically EVERY book EVER written by a celeb, even PRESIDENTS (yes, including BARACK OBAMA) is GHOSTWRITTEN or CO-WRITTEN (read MOSTLY scribed by somebody else). This includes JOHN KENNEDY'S books, Rush Limbaugh's, etc. As for ELIZABETH H., she is a sweetheart who is totally not as Conservative as she portrays, as she is trying to fill the one spot designated for it on the program, and they don't want somebody who could REALLY give 'em a run for their money as BARBARA WALTERS only wants the Liberal viewpoint mostly on her show. As for stupid, see SHERRY SHEPHERD and her FLAT EARTH theories that she should leave under her wig!

When is this woman going to get a clue and find a new job. No one wants to read her book or hear her mouth. She is a bad example to young woman all over the world. With all her money couldn't she just pay someone for their ideas? I hope the original author gets millions from this ignorant sad excuse for a woman.

Elisabeth is what is wrong with television ...and the amount of ignorance they spew for fame and popularity...That's all it is! Elisabeth is like 99.999% of all actors ( intelligence challenged) willing to do anything for camera time....it is not 100% intrinsic talent driven. HOWEVER, as much as she drove me away from the republican party........and trust me she and dumbass Palin did it, no one deserves to post such vitriol about her baby being still born. That is way over the top! Is it enough, she is already married to Jon( Plus 8) type who will eventually tire of her when the ignorance she spews no longer has TV value or the continued emasculaction of his lack of skills becomes tiring? She is such a little girl about, how she trys to get her ignorant point across, or what she believes about even her own life, it will come crashing down. She has what is called KLS, Kathy Lee Syndrome....Cody is perfect and Frank would never cheat.........Cody is doing drugs and we a...

Jerry Seinfelds wife met an author,saw her cookbook and suddenly came out with an eerily similar one,claiming she wrote hers first.Now this dimwit does the same.Hasselbeck can't read,let alone write,so I'm sure someone helped her.They all think that because they are "celebrities" that they have their own rules.I hope both of these book stealers get sued and lose.

Elisabeth H is a complete idiot. I'm sure there isn't a word in her book that's an original thought. Probably the only parts she actually contributed were the plagerized sections.
