Hey Rosie! It ain't funny no more

"When confronted, she said she was doing it to be funny"

Rosie -- you are never funny.

[sgtbono2002]

Rosie O'Moose hasnt been funny for a long time/\ She would be out of business if it werent for some strange relationship women have with Dykes. I dont why straight women who watch the View dont send a message to its producers do dump this Faux Woman.

I know, I know. I'm white and I suck. I'm a bigot and too dumb to realize it. Only whites can be the butts of jokes because we are the only ones with enough self-esteem not to get offended. I get it, already. Believe me, it's drilled in my head daily.

[contemplator]

What is not encouraging, however, is the small amount of attention her racism received in the mainstream media.

Maybe we should get a picture bunch of Chinese people holding up a sign reminiscent of the soldiers and their "Halp me Jon Cary" sign except this one should say "Ching Chong Ching Chong Rosie Ching Chong not funny Ching Chong"

[ConservaTexan]

When confronted, she said she was doing it to be funny.

I feel the 'botched joke' card getting ready to be played. I wonder how funny Rosie O'fat would find it it Connie Chung said "All bull-dykes have butch hair cuts and vibrators with kickstands."

At the same time, Chinese Americans must work to stop anti-Chinese behavior and rhetoric. When was the last time you saw a performance in black face? Yet a Houston, Texas, radio station used to run a skit where someone calls a Chinese restaurant and, in the most racist Chinese accent imaginable, asks for Chickity Chinese Chicken.

I heard that phone call and it was hilarious. That said, the two Chinese Americans I have been friends with were both naturalized citizens, very intelligent, and unfailingly loyal to the US. One was a judo instructor of mine who was Taiwan. I asked him if he was keeping a close eye on the China/Taiwan situation. He responded: "I am an American now. My concerns lie here." I was very honored to be a student of his.

Rosie never struck me as funny at all. A fat, bitter, vindictive, sarcastic loser with a ton of self-esteem issues she tries to hide by making fun of everyone around her.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Rosie O'Donnell has more chins than a Chinese phonebook.

[Safetgiver]

First of all, I have no idea of when DeVito did anything other than Taxi. Second of all, Rosie is a POS and anything she says means nothing. But, is this guy just whining or am I missing something? Not being smart or a wiseass, but should everyone be offended by everything?

[Nancee]

Nothing about Rosie is funny!!

[<1/1,000,000th%]

LOL!!!

[Palladin]

Rosie O'Barrel is the unfunniest woman in the world. Why Bubbie Walters puts up with Rosie's coarse and irritating behavior on that show is a mystery to me. Bubbie used to have some class, but now she is catering to the lowest common denominator with her morning show.

[dforest]

Rosie looks and acts like the people we see on "Cops".

[chesley]

Racism is only funny when liberals do it. Didn't you know that?

[conferencecaller]

Rosie and John Kerry should tour.

[conferencecaller]

Rosie and John Kerry should tour.

[PBRSTREETGANG]

Why Bubbie Walters puts up with Rosie's coarse and irritating behavior on that show is a mystery to me.

Because she bows to the god of "PC" and having a lezbo on her show helps bolster her feeling of superiority.

[Carpe Cerevisi]

LOL! That's one of my favorites.

[ClearCase_guy]

John Kerry -- makes a political speech. Offends people. Says it's a botched joke. Media says it's no big deal.

Rose O'Donnell -- hosts TV talk show. Offends people. Says she was trying to be funny. Media says it's no big deal.

Michael Richards -- doing a standup routine at a comedy club. Offends people. WHAT? YOU GONNA TELL ME HE WAS TRYING TO BE FUNNY???? THAT'S NO EXCUSE!! THAT MAN IS RACIST!!!!
