Why I May Start Watching The View

Rosie O’Donnell is back on the hot seat, this time attempting to defend herself against allegations that she called Iraq-based U.S. troops “terrorists”.
A political discussion over the war in Iraq became heated when an angry O’Donnell decried Hasselbeck for not standing up for her when media outlets suggested that she’d called U.S. troops “terrorists” during a previous debate.
“What you did was not defend me. … I asked you if you believed what the Republican pundits were saying — you said nothing, and that’s cowardly,” O’Donnell said.
Responded a stern Hasselbeck: “Do not call me a coward, because No. 1, I sit here every single day, open my heart and tell people what I believe.”
O’Donnell and Hasselbeck were shown on a split screen as the argument progressed without commercial interruption.
“Do you believe that I think our troops are terrorists? And you would not even look me in the face, Elisabeth, and say, `No, Rosie,’” O’Donnell said.
Responded Hasselbeck: “Because you are an adult, and I am certainly not going to be the person for you to explain your thoughts. They’re your thoughts! Defend your own insinuations!”
O’Donnell, who is leaving the ABC daytime talk show next month, said she wasn’t going to fight anymore. “So for three weeks, you can say all the Republican crap you want.”
A Republican-friendly talk show on daytime TV? Finally!!!

Gotta love that picture! LOL! Lesbian socialists unite!
For someone who espouses ‘peace’ constantly, she sure has a pointedly negative view of all things American.
I Tivo’d that episode b/c of the Dancing with the Stars part (for the kids, heh) but what a gold mine it was! That was THE BEST smack down I’ve seen in a long time. Rosie has spent an entire season belittling and degrading Hasselbeck and expects her to run to her rescue. Someone grew a backbone and had enough of it, obviously. The rest of the show was interesting… Elizabeth spent the whole time fighting for alpha status over Rosie (and winning, albeit somewhat sorry to watch at that point), especially after the snub from Alicia Silverstone (now THERE is a twit for ya).
Yes, I have no life — but it was awesome. But not nearly as awesome as that picture posted!
… fantastic … good for Hasselbeck
Rosie is a typical Democrat..cannot see right from wrong, likes being screwed by congress, the senate & the whole damn government. One sided, narrow minded, Bush hater who wouldn’t give him credit if he gave her a million bucks. Maybe her & Hillary should share digs!!!!!
Yeah, because that sounded like a two-sided opinion.
**cough**
