NEW YORK, NY, June 9, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) In a statement during an appearance on ABCs the view, outspoken lesbian Rosie ODonnell confessed that she had ordered her lesbian partner to stop breastfeeding her child because of her jealousy.
The topic came up when the moderator Meredith Vieira mentioned the recent New York protestor nurse-inwhich involved 200 women breastfeeding outside of ABCs headquarters in protest against negative remarks Barbara Walters had made about breastfeeding.
Kelly [Rosies partner] only nursed for like about a month, said Rosie at the time, and then I was very angry, because as the other mommy...with the other babies nobody nursed because they were adopted. But with this baby it was like she was the only one getting to bond. So I was like the nursing is over! I cut her off. Im like, youve had your limit honey. No more!
One of Rosies fellow panel members interjected at this point, saying But you know thats an interesting conversation because in a certain way youre doing a disservice to the baby arent you when you act like that?
No, because I got to bond and cuddle, said Rosie. She then turned on the nursing mothers who had taken part in the protest, saying Those women who were out there protesting while they were nursing, they just have a lot of hormones.
The controversial remarks caused a flurry of responses on Rosie ODonnells personal blog, and many other related blogs across the internet, with the majority of her fans expressing shock and outrage at Rosies professed behaviour.
User JenS gave a typical fan response saying How entirly [sic] selfish to ask your partner stop breastfeeding. Are you really that insecure to be threatened by the bonding? Men can handle thier [sic] partners breastfeeding, why cant you? If you need more time to cuddle with your child, cut down on your work time.
Another fan, who called herself Mamadoctor, protested Rosie! Did you actually say you made your wife stop breastfeeding? Because you were envious? That breaks my heart. Im a general surgery resident, with a strong interest in breast cancer, and the literature is just so overwhelming that breastfeeding protects women from breast cancer. For the babies, not breastfeeding increases risk of cancer, allergies, inflammatory bowel disease, infection, and *death*!
It is becoming an increasingly accepted scientific fact that breastfeeding greatly reduces the chances of breast-cancer for both the mother and the child, as well as having innumerable other advantages for the health of the baby.
~~ shudder ~~
Skank alert.
I know this needs an obvious alert, but Rosie O'Donnell is nuts.
Did anyone see her with Sean Hannity the other day? She was stark raving out of her mind.
This whole article digusts me. Poor little kids.
For someone who professed to be such a great mother to her adopted children, she sure can put her own selfish desires ahead of her children's best interests!
It seems that Rosie ODonnell is a chauvinist pig.
Barf alert!
loco weed=rosie.
I wouldn't want this hysteric treating me.
But Rosie is a comedienne, don't you know, and can't be expected to be responsible for what she says.
My first thought LOL! Also what size pants would that be. Follow the money. This women is an unfit mother in my opinion.
When I think of Rosie, the best thing I can come up with is that bit of wisdom from that great philosopher, Larry the Cable Guy....
"Have you seen Rosie O'Donnell lately? By golly, that woman's just three M& M's away from 'Ho-ly S***!!'"
Homosexual Agenda Ping.
I really don't want to ping you all this to you, but in the interests of truth, I will.
A glaring example of "gay" parenting in real life.
Let me know if you want on/off this pinglist.
Gad! Why isn't this in Breaking News?
It is becoming an increasingly accepted scientific fact that Rosie O'Donell is a pig and an idiot.
This is leaving me practically speechless - which is a rarity for me...........but I must because that which I wish to say is not permitted on FR.
I'm abhorred by this.
10 to 1 this kid is going to be one messed up human being when it gets into ot's 30's. This is legalized child abuse.
Ditto, although I'll toss in the word, 'Blecch!'
No, because Shawn won't show it when I am around to watch his show...sucks..
Rosie...sounds like a temper tantrum. Some big baby needs her spanky and a bottle. (imagine baby crying). Nihilistic problem....caring more for her own desire/comfort than consideration of the baby and mother...
too funny
Heard this on Michael Medved today, could not contain my derision. O'Donnell needs dramatic psychological intervention.
