Rosie Has Left The View
delalluvia:
Didn't the argument start because Rosie wanted Elizabeth to back her up on her statement about body counts and who was the terrorist?
Rosie had every right to speak her mind and though Elizabeth doesn't have the brains the gods gave a turnip, she was within her rights not to agree/back her up, if she didn't agree.

Never watched "The View" so I know nothing of Elisabeth Hasselbeck. IMO, some of the descriptions that were used can be applied to Rosie as well.
serious crayons:
I watch The View but missed this one, just as I somehow manage to miss ALL of the big controversial ones (the Trump dissing, the bad Chinese imitation, the Clay Aiken/Kelly Ripa contretemps, the drunk Danny DeVito episode). I have seen the YouTube clips.
It's funny, when she's not talking about politics I kind of like Elizabeth. She's cute, she has cute clothes (those both go a long way with me :laugh:), she's conservative but at least apparently not homophobic. I like hearing from "regular people" conservatives now and then, so I can find out their side of the story and try to figure out how they justify it to themselves. She was the only real conservative of the group (Joy and Rosie are both liberals, Barbara is carefully neutral), and thus not much of a threat. She's not the brightest bulb, but I don't think she's a complete idiot and I wouldn't call her the C word or even the B word. Oddly enough, aside from politics, I got the feeling that Rosie and Elizabeth got along OK.

I can see her buying into the conservative line that 'they are the party that believes in people' that anyone can be rich and successful if they just try real hard. And anyone that doesnt must be lazy or stupid.

Well put, Jess! I think that kind of thinking explains the political views of most, if not all, reagular-people conservatives.
I will reeeeaaaaally miss Rosie, though. She was the life of the show. I'll probably go back to exercising during the Today Show instead of The View.

I wouldn't call her a c-word or b-word (as I said), either. I would call her a twit. I agree with you on one thing - she wears cute clothes. Don't like anything else about her, though. Didn't like her on Survivor, either - in fact, I stopped watching it during that season primarily because she annoyed me so much. I guess I should thank her for that, come to think of it...
;)

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

OMFG i laughed my head off when he said that. She was so cute on survivor...but she made it thru on someone elses back,,,,and she is so cute still, but she is like Barbie,,all body w/no brains...she is overplaying her role,
as the resident airhead...She is stupid and vapid, and has no natural born intellect...just another republican mouth.....
