Because the Patriot Act discriminates against blacks in government?
Shhh... Don't tell Senator Obama.
Rosie O'Donnell is a classic batterer (emotional) - she puts fear into those nearby so she can control every conversation - while thinking she is influencing others, when in reality she is only badgering and beating those she assumes are weaker.
It is by common courtesy she gets away with it because most people (ie: Hasselback) are kinder and choose another way to work positively to influence others.
O'Donnell is a thug and not terribly bright.
