"View" Snoozes with Rosie Home

This morning, on an ABC morning talk show, four women sat around a glass table gabbing amiably about pop culture, current events and random marginalia, suffused with self-empowerment -- and they eschewed personal rancor. Huh?

Yo, ABC! Give us "The View" back!

The day after thermonuclear war broke out between Rosie O'Donnell and Elisabeth Hasselbeck, "The View" was a placid (boring), supportive (boring), and happy (booooring) place once more, with Queen Babs back on her throne to restore order. Rosie was off celebrating partner Kelli's birthday, but the show didn't skirt around yesterday's slugfest, and guest co-host Kathy Griffin compared the dust-up to Christmas dinners in the Griffin family household.

Still, as of this morning, all Rosie was sayin' was that she didn't know when she'd be back -- if at all, according to her blog. And, more officially, Babwa called any suggestion that yesterday's fight was scripted "ridiculous."

1. Just proof that this show will fall apart when Rosie leaves...love her or hate her, she's the only thing making it at all interesting!

3. Rosie is entitled to her opinion just like Elizabeth. Since when is it Elizabeth's job to defend what Rosie says? Rosie should defend herself. Elizabeth clearly can not support Rosie's opinion. Why should she go even further and DEFEND it? Rosie would never support or defend a statement made by Elizabeth if she (Rosie) didn't agree with it...which is apparently most of the time.

4. They can replace Rosie with Jenna Jameson, now I'm watchin!

5. Without Rosie, The View will just be circling the drain. And it couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of witches. BW is a back stabber and liar, Joy I feel sorry for, and I've got dirt with a higher IQ than Liz. Once Rosie leaves, I will never watch that stupid show again.

9. Anyone remember before Rosie was on The View? Hasselbeck has had many, many meltdowns, personally attacking other co-hosts and even guests. She has smarted off to Queen Babs too when B tried to calm her down. EH has a long history of cutting people off, wagging her finger in their faces, screeching and dominating anyone that has a different opinion. Rosie was just strong enough to get right back in her face. See for yourself - just youtube Elisabeth Hasselbeck View and watch the older encounters.

As of the day Rosie leaves I will boycott this show.

10. TMZ...your just pissed off that you won't have Rosie to kick around anymore. All you ever do is make fun of her...now you miss her??? Well, not me! Good riddance.

POOR ROSIE

12. First of all I would like to apologize to TMZ, that I thought you guys were up to no good for not posting my comments. It wasn't you. It was me. I'm such an idiot when it comes to high tech stuff...Last week, I rebooted my PC & apparently it wiped out a few things. Anyway, back to normal now...LOL.

Back to Rosie & Betsy.

Rosie is a loud mouth with a good heart.

Betsy is a dumb blonde who is blindly believe in a hopeless, secretive, warmonger & greedy administration, to make her feel as if she is so intelligent & worthy & better than the rest of us. So sick of looking at her close-set eyes. Go ahead to FOX, because no one will care to watch you, nor your male version, namely Bill O'Reily!!!

Granted, I'm not a fan of the show, but once in a while I flip through & watch what Rosie has to say.

I love Joy Behar. She is funny & know when to hold them, and when to fold them.

Babwa is an old hag, who is idolizing herself...Boring!!!

14. The View sucks, with or without Rosie.....only reason it's so popular it's because of them Rosie fans who think the woman makes sense. She's an ignorant biatch.

Rosie has got to go and so does the View.....Rosie all together should drop off the face of this earth or atleast keep her "Opinions" to herself.

15. Rosie is nuts and she needs help.

Let her go off into the sunset before she does something really insane.

It was nice to see 4 rational women this morning!
