Rosie Has Left The View

Rosie has announced she is through with The View, primarily because of this:

I felt the earth move when Trump took Rosie's side in the spat...

Am I right that the argument came from whether Bush should have soldiers in Iraq?  And if the Iraqi people are your [USA's] enemies?

It's so sad that almost any debate about such a president is so volatile.   Surely to god everyone doesn't have shares in Halliburton.

America is unraveling before our eyes.
First an ex-president then an ex-vice-president speak out.
The emperor has no ... marbles.

ps. I am from Canada
and another Canadian Soldier died today trying to help Afghanistan get back on it's feet.  (He died on the road - at 25.)
The Iraqi war has embittered and emboldened the opposition in all that area.

I'm very sorry to hear it.  But Rosie is very emotional, and I think it would be torture for her to go back after that incident.  It's one thing to feud with Trump, but it's harder when your opponent is 3 feet away.

I agree with you all.  Yes, Toast - it is definitely unraveling.  I just don't get it.  Well, I do, actually, but I try not to.  ;)

Seriously, I think it's all about fear.  This President is apparently a master (or should I say Karl Rove is the master, since GWB is incapable of original thought) at fostering it in his people.  I guess I didn't get that particular gene, but it seems many of us did.

And might I add, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is a shrill, ignorant, insensitive c-word.  No - that's being too kind.  You have to have some intelligence to merit the c-word or even the b-word.  So let's just say she's a twit.

Someone on another board I frequent said, "I think Elisabeth is a lovely person.  She's done some stints at Fox News (big shocker, there) - I hope she considers going there permanently."

I said "So do I."   :P

Ooh, Phillip - just watched your second clip.  WTG, Alicia Silverstone!  I now have something else to love about her besides her performance in "Clueless" (which was classic).

And The Donald - "the dumbest person in television."  LMFAO!  I never thought I'd say this, but THANK you, Donald.

I expect Rosie will end up with her own show very soon, perhaps even one to bookend Bill Maher on HBO.  I think Rosie would have a big audience for her outspoken views about current events.

I am not a regular viewer of The View, but anything that gets people talking about current events in this country beyond Paris Hilton, et al., is a major plus for me.  And from what I've heard from Elizabeth, she's good at coughing up the talking points and trying to defend what is rapidly turning into the worst administration in the history of this country.  I've called them TeamFailure since Katrina, and things have certainly not improved since then.

I wish she'd go to Fox, too.  Unfortunately, I don't think she's a twit, just a product of a conservative Republican background that makes her see what she wants to see and rationalize TeamFailure's stupidity accordingly.  What concerns me is that her sparring with Rosie forced her to become better prepared and more aggressive, and with Rosie gone, she could dominate a weaker person.  It certainly doesn't hurt that she's a pretty blonde and wears her Christianity on a chain around her neck.  IMO she's far more dangerous than the likes of Ann Coulter or other cynical blondes the conservatives have trotted out from time to time.  She calms people's fears and lulls them into thinking that things are ultimately okay because, hey, Bush is at least in the right party and a professed born-again Christian and is "keeping us safe."  Gah.  :P
