Beatles breakup redux: Hasselbeck set to quit “The View”?

Thanks, allegedly, to Rosie’s relentlessly condescending jerkiness. Behar’s fit on Wednesday’s show got all the buzz but it’s this exchange at the end of the segment that supposedly left Hasselbeck in tears. I don’t doubt it; she sounds a little quavery at certain moments, but recovers in time to preserve some dignity.

FYI, the segment began with Rosie wondering why we never get to see photos of the bodies of victims of jihad on 9/11 the coffins being unloaded at Andrews AFB of U.S. soldiers killed in Afghanistan Iraq.


Update: Friends!

Replace Hasselback with Coulter. Now THAT would be a view worth watching…I might even tune in from time to time.

Hasselback is a total babe and is on the side of the angels but she’s not well-informed enough to give Rosie the Lefty Bully the factual smackdown she deserves.

The obvious response is that the Patriot Act gives the government the same tools against terrorists that the RICOH act gave to fight the Mafia. Rosie engages in totally predictable lefty rhetoric in which she makes sweeping generalizations unbased in reality which she heard from other lefties. To puncture that gasbag you need specific facts which require daily study on top of a solid education. Get somebody like Laura Ingraham in there and the tide would turn.

someone needs to airlock that pig

Is it me or is Hasselbeck the only attractive woman on the show? I would watch it if there were three more of her on the show and if they had at least twice the brain power of Rosie. I like Rosie’s acting, but she calling the other’s comments “ignorant” is as laughable as it gets.

At first I watched but as time went by and I got angrier I started to try to mute Rosie…then I just kept track of the commercials to boycott the products…made me feel better…but then Behar started in…to try to grab some headlines for herself…then I just stopped watching all together…I feel so much better now :)

Godless human debris will be the ruin of the United States. And while I am not a big fan of the Patriot Act, in times of war, certain measures are necessary and prudent. Of course, liberal minds like Rosie don’t think we ARE at war, they think that we are only waging war because Bush and his friends want to. Until the knife of Jihad is being held at Rosie’s throat and she is begging for her life, totally confused as to why she is about to die, her liberal mind and the others like hers will continue be seditious traitors, and the ruination of this great Nation.

Rosie couldn’t even look Hasselbeck in the eyes when she was insulting her.

Saying “when you get to be my age” makes me laugh. It reminds me of the arguement I had with my 2nd grade teacher about handwriting. I told her that when I got a job everything would be typed on a computer. She didn’t believe me . . . that was in 1981 and even now no one can read my handwriting *eg*

Ya know, the filter on this is really frustrating. I’ve changed 15 words and it still wont post.

Arrrrgh!

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 3:33 AM

Ah ha! But we miss the most important part of the dynamic between the two. Women are mostly catty and that goes double for ugly fat loud digusting lesbians!

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 3:34 AM

Rosie O fatpiggo is sooooooo jealous of Elisabeth’s beauty, body, and age, it comes out in her vitriol. I’d bet she has been sitting on that tirade for weeks just waiting to use it to make her feel like she is a valid person.

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 3:34 AM

Listen, Rosie O pimple covered hairy cottage cheese butt, you are about as valid as the poo I wipe off my shoes after cleaning up after my pets.

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 3:38 AM

You know what word was flagging my post?

S-C-R-A-P-E

So I changed it to wipe. Dumb.

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 3:40 AM

Rosie the lesbian has managed to exhibit every awful male stereotype when it comes to interacting with other women. She’s an ugly man and woman all in one huge container.

Man to man, Rosie, you ain’t getting young women with that attitude.

What did Rosie do to get her so much air time and press? “Car 54 Where Are You” is the only thing I’ve ever seen her do (thankfully).

I’ve been trying to email Barbara Walters at The View all day, but the site keeps timing out.
Is anyone else having this trouble?
JadeNYU on March 2, 2007 at 7:39 PM

I tried for hours, to elisabeth and Babs, they shut down the server.
I wanted to tell Hasselbeck to get the hell out of there. The show would collapse with only lefty hate rhetoric.

LEAVE, LIS.

PATIENCE!

what a pig you are, Rosie.
an absolute pig.

I think I figure it out on a different thread. I changed one word and the second one posted and the first one went up later.

hahaha, poor AP. I reposted my comment here 10 different times until I decided to break it up into 3 different posts to find the “offensive” word.

I guess he had to wade through them all?

My bad.

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 12:51 PM

shooter on March 3, 2007 at 11:56 AM

Yeah, me too. I finally gave up. they probably have a filter that rejects any criticizim.

Either way they are cowards.

csdeven on March 3, 2007 at 12:57 PM

Can we pick another nutjob lib for the semi-weekly bait instead of Ms. O’Donut? I mean, come on, the woman deserves no play. How about Garafalo instead? Seriously, I thought Janeane was funny before she started spouting off commie rhetoric. Rosie’s always been a talentless a$$clown.

This blog is becoming for Rosie what the celeb blogs have become for Paris Hilton and her std posse. Puhlease.

May the Islamofacist be greeted by 72 old, green, hairy, loud, obnoxious, ugly, ignorant, stupid trolls that look just like O’Donnell for eternity.

Paint that image and they will all convert to Christianity.

omegaram on March 3, 2007 at 7:12 PM

Could you imagine if Hasselbeck had called Rosie’s opinions ignorant?

“Well Rosie, your Bush derangment syndrome makes your ignorant opinions … well just kind of silly”.

I’d pay good money to see that.

One Angry Christian on March 4, 2007 at 2:47 PM

Who wants to bet that Rosie has never ever read any portion of the Patriot Act. I love it when people talk authoritatively about something they haven’t even read.
