The resident shock jock at 'The View' has had a difficult time on the show since returning from vacation. Rosie O'Donnell makes her living blasting away on ABC's morning show and it is all justified in the name of ratings by ABC. That's pretty much the case with Don Imus and NBC.
Rosie and Imus are both are unfunny and past their primes, but both can still get a decent audience in their time slots with their cheap humor. Whether it's Rosie mocking the Chinese or Imus mocking young black women athletes bigotry is all done in the name of 'humor.'
But it all went bad for Imus this week as it came to a screeching halt and he is on his way out. So - what does Rosie think?
She's confused and bewildered as she surely understands that her weak jokes are basically the same as the 'I-man's' so called humor at times.
Now Rosie is confused and even believes that Imus getting canned by NBC means that those that want 'free speech' may be headed to Guantanamo Bay. I guess MSNBC will send them there as they are the ones that have canned Imus.
She is again using her blog to try communication while apparently missing the hypocrisy. She writes, "news in America - shock jocks rule the airwaves - in suits behind desks. Yes, Rosie the shock jock gets a lot of attention and rules the airwaves while sitting in a suit behind a desk. Is she so ignorant that she does not realize that she just 'outed' herself?
She continues, "Screaming. Shaming, blaming sexist, racist, ethnocentric, weightist homophobic." That's Rosie all right. She blamed Britain for the Iran hostage crisis. She mocked Asians with her ching, chang, chong bigoted remarks. She blamed and mocked the fit Miss USA Tara Conner when she sought treatment (that makes Rosie a weightist, right as Miss USA is not fat). She tried to shame American Idol while sitting with three other white women and called them racist.
She accused fellow talker Kelly Ripa of being a homophobe. Of course she missed on all of the rants, but she's a shock jock so - she was given a pass.

On Tuesday she was concerned that Imus was headed to Gitmo saying about free speech, "Right, but it’s not a freedom if you outlaw certain words or thoughts, because then the thought police come and then before you know it, everyone’s in Guantanamo Bay without representation." Even her usual lapdog Joy Behar exclaimed, "What a jump!"
Rosie is the queen shock jock of morning network television. No wonder she is so confused on how to handle the Imus situation
I bet if we put Rosie in Gitmo we'd start getting all sorts of new intel from the terrorists. All we'd have to do is threaten to make them share a cell with that fat pig and they'd all start singing like canaries.
Someone should tell Rosie that Gitmo is for criminals, not the insane.
Bwahahahaha!
Imus to Gitmo?
She finally said somethng funny!
Waitaminute. If she goes to Gitmo then the US taxpayer would have to feed her. Talk about deficit spending....
She is a copperhead
Suppose he said "Nappy Headed Bull Dikes"? He has been known to use that terminology before.
Rosie and “thinking” are oxymoronic terms
Further, Rosie is emitting more than her fair share of CO2 into the air (I won't mention the methane gas).
Off to rehab, Rosie.
We haven't zeroed in on noise pollution yet, but our department is working on it.
Why yes, she's that ignorant.
The article reminded me of something my father-in-law always says:
When you point a finger at someone, three fingers are pointing back at you.
Weightist? Well I’m proud to say I’m a full-blown bullyist. And I’m an uglyphobe
“Conservatives just sat back and enjoyed the view.”
Give it time, it will soon be all our fault. No one blames their own group for failure. It’s always someone else’s fault.
Little trouble understanding the First Amendment Ms. O’Doughnut? Employers can’t restrict your rights but they sure as hell can fire you.
Calm down Rosie and stop thinking with your butt crack!
Rosie is off the reservation, I can’t believe ABC still has her under contract.
Rosie!
Shut Up and ... Well, you don’t sing... OK, then Shut Up and tell jokes... No, don’t do that... You’ve never been funny enough to be a stand up comedienne, at best just a VH1 video jock. I know... Shut Up and act... No, don’t do that either... I saw you in that womens baseball movie, and you were pretty good, but then I realized that wasn’t acting. You were just playing yourself... Then I saw that horrible movie with Dan Ackroid, and you proved that you can’t act...
I know... Just shut up and go away. That would be nice.

If they sent Rosie to Gitmo, the demos would claim “Cruel and Unusual” punishment to the Islamonuts down there now. Probably wind up having to turn all of them loose.
Oh the irony!!
They eat their own.
