And denies that she told him Rosie’s a big fat pig whose girlfriend should be stolen away at the first available opportunity. Er, I mean, denies that she told him she regretted hiring her.

This is really just exposition, to keep you up to date on the story. The bombardment will recommence tonight, in all likelihood, when Trump calls into Fox or CNN to say that Rosie should be forcibly sterilized or shot into outer space or something.

Shouldn’t ROSIE be doing the retracting?? Don’t tell me Rosie’s bullied the main host of the show into doing her dirty work.

NTWR on January 3, 2007 at 2:46 PM

Donald for the win.

GoodBoy on January 3, 2007 at 2:47 PM

Rosie was already shot into outer space…Simpsons episode Treehouse of Horror X…Best Episode Ever!

liberrocky on January 3, 2007 at 2:47 PM

I guess you watch this so I don’t have to but, I can tell you that I can’t even stand clicking on the cuts anymore.
Make it go away Allah…

Babs on January 3, 2007 at 2:48 PM

Ratings must’ve been slipping; with Rosie on vacation they needed to do something to get a boost. Yawn.

dalewalt on January 3, 2007 at 2:48 PM

Did Rosie take her GF on vacation to hide her from Trump’s minions, so that she couldn’t be stolen away?

bbz123 on January 3, 2007 at 2:57 PM

They should both be shot into space. Two publicity whores pimping for one another.

RedWinged Blackbird on January 3, 2007 at 2:57 PM

Rosie…stand up and apologize like a er..um..eh..man.

right2bright on January 3, 2007 at 3:03 PM

“we will welcome her back with open arms…” Reeeeetch.

Guardian on January 3, 2007 at 3:06 PM

The fun never stops man. … the best… show … ever.

One Angry Christian on January 3, 2007 at 3:08 PM

Allah,

Let’s protect the whole universe by sterilizing and shooting her into space.

budorob on January 3, 2007 at 3:13 PM

Put them both on Survivor Island, just the two of them. Then leave them.

R D on January 3, 2007 at 3:14 PM

Sounds good to me, she’s already an ass, lets make her an ass-tronaut.

E L Frederick (Sniper One) on January 3, 2007 at 3:19 PM

Barbara Walters just made the list that includes Sean Penn, Danny Glover and Rosie O’Donnell. This list is the Avoid Watching or Patronizing List.

It would appear that Barbara Walters Rosie O’Donnell are of the same kind, however nobody could be as Ugly, Stupid, Ignorant, Revolting, Misguided, and Disgusting as O’Donnell.

omegaram on January 3, 2007 at 3:25 PM

Rosie…stand up and apologize like a er..um..eh..man.

right2bright on January 3, 2007 at 3:03 PM

*snicker* I agree..they should have alluded to this and then FORCED Rosie to do it herself!

labwrs on January 3, 2007 at 3:25 PM

Boring… but at least I can say that I’ve seen a mummy defend a pig on film. I’ll cross it off my list.

x95b10 on January 3, 2007 at 3:49 PM

It looked like it nearly KILLED her to do that. ABC asked me to do this my butt. You couldn’t do it yourself, take ownership? I see she is paving the way to fire Rosie. ABC has asked me to remove fire the big fat pig…Rosie is seeking opportunities elsewhere on a planned long term absence.

CrimsonFisted on January 3, 2007 at 3:51 PM

Thanks for the update, I can now move on to other things today.

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 3:56 PM

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 3:56 PM

Happy New Year Rick!!! On to important matters: what’s the deal with Parcells? Saw him at his press conference, looked like he was going to open a vein. What’s the feeling about him in Dallas?

honora on January 3, 2007 at 4:07 PM

Are there that many stupid people watching this crap?

Kini on January 3, 2007 at 4:08 PM

Yeah, whew, I’ve been quite bothered, upset and distraught while nervously watching 6 TV’s , with the radios on, and 3 computers fired up, all tuned in to ‘The Donald v. The fat-one’ 2007. Now I can rest and wait for 24.

shooter on January 3, 2007 at 4:14 PM

There is something psychologically disturbing about a site that props up Rosie and features ads from Olberman. I’m losing interest here as a result.

cms on January 3, 2007 at 4:38 PM

You know the only person I like in this entire drama is Ivanka Trump….

I’m sure 50% of the population agrees with me….

Tim Burton on January 3, 2007 at 4:46 PM

Perhaps they feared Trump’s pending law suit and ABC told Bwabwa to retract it so they don’t have to deal with the headache.

I can see ABC execs sitting around mulling over the choices: hmmm we can have Bwabwa eat a little sh*t on air as punishment for hiring Rosie in the first place OR we can try to extract that show from a Trump lawsuit. hmmm which way should we go?

Mallard T. Drake on January 3, 2007 at 4:57 PM

RedWinged Blackbird on January 3, 2007 at 2:57 PM

Sorry, I can’t help this but PIGS IN SPACE!

kiakjones on January 3, 2007 at 5:00 PM

This would not be an updated Rosie post without this:

honora on January 3, 2007 at 4:07 PM

My guess is that he probably will open a vein if they lose to the water birds on Saturday. I was about to while at the game on Sunday.

Speaking of which, what’s Cowher going to do?

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 5:20 PM

Babwa looks like she threw up in her mouth a little bit right after she said “welcome her back with open arms”. She wants Rosie for the shock value. Rosie is sorta like a Jerry Springer guest that got her own show.

We’ll miss you. Say hello to your shrink from us.

fogw on January 3, 2007 at 5:58 PM

See her eyes blinking like crazy? She is LYING.

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 5:20 PM

Better get the towels ready, because there is no way the ‘boys will outlast the Seahawks at home. It is forecast to be a shoot out since the Hawks secondary is depleted by injuries and the Cowboys secondary is just bad. Looking forward to watching Terribly Overstated drop four or five passes. Look for me in the Hawks Nest!!!

Mallard T. Drake on January 3, 2007 at 6:09 PM

Still postworthy, eh? Okay, how about a sing-along:
“Rosie O’The Donald had a farm, E-I-E-I-O — and on this farm she had some pigs, E-I-E-I-O — with an oink-oink here and and an oink-oink there — here an oink, there an oink, everywhere an oink, oink ….”

CyberCipher on January 3, 2007 at 6:13 PM

If Rosie never talks about Donald on the View again, then we know the Harpies warned her not to.

“We called in Grandma to scare off the media bullies, now shut up!”

Black Adam on January 3, 2007 at 6:18 PM

x95b10 on January 3, 2007 at 3:49 PM

Heh.

I’m on record on this already — Baba’s a lefty and she is loving the Rosie the Pig Bush Bash. Truth.

Jaibones on January 3, 2007 at 7:32 PM

FogW,
Will do. Take care, vaya con dios and I hope you don’t have to weather many more stories on Rosie and Trump, or many more Olberman ads. I’ve simply had my fill.

cms on January 3, 2007 at 7:38 PM

Don’t have a dog in this fight.
But, must be a panic at The View.
Lousy show, this Trump V Rosie in the mud-filled inflatable kiddie pool won’t save it. A bunch of screechy, uninformed New Yorker women can’t have much appeal to anyone beyond 5th Avenue. Really, did rich connected spouses make this thing up to keep their shriller halves busy of a day?

naliaka on January 3, 2007 at 7:57 PM

Sounds like Barbara is on ABC’s S— list also

Wade on January 3, 2007 at 8:10 PM

Can Rosie use her fatness as a legal defense? Just wondering, everything else has been tried……

ritethinker on January 3, 2007 at 9:40 PM

For a gal that is on vacation, Rosie sure has a lot of time on her hands to blog. If she has time to blog, shouldn’t she have had time to call in the clarification? Or were we supposed to believe Barbara? Cause I remember Walters lying exaggerating about Star!

Pam on January 3, 2007 at 9:57 PM

You know, I try to read about everything I can. Hell, I spent several hours watching the History channel last night since they had some great shows on about Saddam and his ties to the Nazi philosophy. They were both very interesting shows. I can not read Rosie’s blog though. I can not tell if I am reading her posts or one of her young kids; the grammar and the writing in general is just juvenile. At least when I do read something at Dailykos, basic English concepts are adhered to.

zerodamage on January 3, 2007 at 10:26 PM

Mallard T. Drake on January 3, 2007 at 6:09 PM

Based on the way the Boys played in December, I would tend to agree with your comment, but I actually like the Boys’ chances against a seriously depleted Hawks’ D (oh, and the fact that Shaun Alexander is not 100% also helps).

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 10:28 PM

ritethinker on January 3, 2007 at 9:40 PM

Interestingly enough, liberals don’t have much tolerance for fat people.

Rick on January 3, 2007 at 10:30 PM

zerodamage- that is her way of doing poetry..not only did she fail high school civics 101, she failed miserably at poetry/creative writing. I only check it to see who she told to fu@& off this week.

Pam on January 3, 2007 at 10:49 PM

“Vacation”? Heh. Probably code for “get out of town for a while until the heat’s off”.

JimC on January 3, 2007 at 10:57 PM

Barbra walters is such a craven sl*t.

VinceP1974 on January 4, 2007 at 1:37 AM

I’m still trying to figure out who watches this show /boggle .

Barbara Walters is a decent story teller…but that is about the extent of it. Her format for this show is terrible…I would venture to guess that despite the huge playup that their ratings are *soaring*…I really don’t see it lasting all that long. I lost a lot of respect for BW a long time ago.

Highrise on January 4, 2007 at 4:08 AM

I don’t think the Saturn V could handle something as oddly shaped, heavy and annoying.

Maybe NASA could use a rail gun or electromagnetic linacs to get that beast outside the Earth’s gravitational influence.

benrand on January 4, 2007 at 4:22 AM

Sometimes you really don’t want the bull around when your milking the cow, and vice-versa.

RalphyBoy on January 4, 2007 at 11:21 AM

The Donald TRUMPS Rosie!

The Donald has extremely accurate Visual Acuity, as his description of that individual fits to perfection! His term, “Big, fat Pig’ is backed by visual fact! Of course The Donald, must also have excellent Extra Wide-angle vision, especially when viewing Rosie in her entirety for his recent and visually valid critique.
Rosie’s highly questionable comment referring to Pimp, is Strictly Innuendo!! Other than about her own lifestyle!
