Joy Behar on Vaccination Debate: Why Doesn't Jenny McCarthy Run for President? (Video)
"This is the neanderthal thinking on the right that is really scary and dangerous," the former "View" co-host says about not vaccinating children during "Morning Joe" appearance
The vaccination debate has been thrust back to the forefront across TV news, and Joy Behar proposed a political solution Tuesday.
"Why doesn't Jenny [McCarthy] run for president?" Behar said sarcastically on "Morning Joe" regarding the former "The View" co-host making noise on social media about vaccinations causing autism.
Since McCarthy and some Republican presidential candidates seem to agree on not vaccinating children, Behar said "my friend" McCarthy should throw her hat into the 2016 race.
"This is this neanderthal thinking on the right that is really scary and dangerous," Behar said about Republican politicians not believing children should get vaccinated.
"I mean they're going to kill us," she continued. Joe Scarborough argued it's not a political issue.
