"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."

451. To #434 Barbara Garbo

First, the show has only been on the air for ten years, not twelve, as you stated.

Second, wouldn’t it be fair to say, the show has had some very interesting and controversial guest to attribute to the shows ratings and not just Rosie spewing her venom?

Third, are you saying Joy, Star, Meredith, and Barbara had no careers or talent that helped develop the show? Remember, Rosie has only been on the show one year (oops, she didn’t even make it a full year) and the others help to build the show over the past ten years.

Just a few thoughts!

452. I think Rosie had it comming ! How dare she bully Elizabeth in that manner!!
Rosie has proved that once you stand up to a bully and bloody their nose, they run home crying with their tail between their legs !! That is all Rosie is, a bully. Her big mouth and her bulling ways have caught up with her and I say good riddance, Rosie and don't show your face on the air ways any time soon ! Yours is one face I can do without for a long, long time. Hi Ho The Wicked Witch is gone , I think she should be shipped to Iraq, get her out of the US and see how she begs to come back!! Let her live in Iraq since she hates her country so much and talks treason. Freedom never comes easy, ask the WW11 survivers. God help all of us if it EVER happens on our soil.

453. Thank you for taking "The View" and television back out of the horrible and dark depths of Trash TV. Unfortunately there are those in this country who thrive on the dehumanizing of themselves and others by taking pleasure in criticisizm that is meant to destroy each other. How sad in a nation that is supposed to be "civilized".....let this nation follow the example of its own men and women in uniform who support each other to the highest degree. Then we can be truly called the "United States" of America.

455. First, what IS Rosie's highest level of education? I would be surprised if she did make it out of high school. I'm not putting down those who have not graduated from high school, just those that haven't a clue - like Rosie. Fire doesn't melt steel. Wow, how is it made then?

I personally have had experience with depression, and therefore I feel I have the right to say this; hasn't ANYONE suggested that Rosie seek professional help? She obviosly has anger issues, she's very insecure and she's extremely rude, almost childish. Please, hanging upside to cure her depression. How incredibly stupid.

One more thing, I am a true patriot. I believe in our troops, but at this point I don't want to lose anymore for "those" people. However, Rosie's comments are treasonous. They're hateful toward our country and harmful to our troops. They are the exact words are enemy wants to hear. How stupid can she be? This is why I and others HATE her! She doesn't research her facts and she shoots off her pie-hole without thinking of the consequences. Why doesn't she take her money made from us "terrorists" and GO LIVE IN SOME THIRD WORLD COUNTRY THAT SHE CAN APPRECIATE AND FEEL SUPERIOR TO!

458. I will miss Rosie. I don't agree with all her opinions but I like the fact that she isn't afraid to express them. I probably won't watch the View anymore. It will be too boring. I wish Elisabeth would leave the show too.

459. Elisabeth is so full of herself. She thinks she is all that. Rosie added life to The View. That is something Elisabeth will never be able to accomplish. Someone needed to put her in her place and I'm happy that Rosie did that. I will never watch The View as long as Elisabeth is on.

460.
I will miss Rosie, she brought life to the show. E.H. needs to stop believing everything she reads and hears. I support our troops and I have 2 nephews over in Iraq. My question to E.H. is how many family members does she have in harms way for this country? I think she is so boring and sooooooooooo far right that her views are just not realistic.
