    Rosie O'Donnell's wacky 9/11 conspiracy theories should get her kicked off 'The View.' RENOWNED metallurgist Rosie O'Donnell proclaimed on TV on Thursday that Sept. 11, 2001, was a more significant date than most of us realized. It was, in her words, "the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel." This, of course, came as news to steelworkers, blacksmiths, firefighters, manufacturers of samurai swords and other fools who hadn't realized that steel is forged in magic furnaces using dragon breath and pixie dust. O'Donnell made this and other profoundly stupid comments on the daytime talk show "The View,"...

    The bride said, "I do." Then Rosie did, too. Angered by President Bush's crusade to make it illegal for them to marry, Rosie O'Donnell and her lesbian partner, Kelli Carpenter, joined the rush down the aisle in San Francisco yesterday. "We were inspired to come here by the sitting President and the vile and vicious and hateful comments he made," the former talk-show host proclaimed after planting a kiss on her longtime love. In tying the knot, the country's most famous lesbian couple took center stage in the debate over gay marriage sparked by Bush's call Tuesday for a constitutional...

    This has to be a bit of a vanity - the advocate website, which is cited as the source for Drudge, won't allow me access. However, it should come as no surprise that Rosie, best known for her lesbian activism, is planning to marry her significant other in good ol' San Francisco.

    Rosie O'Donnell once taunted a cancer survivor by telling her she would be stricken again with the disease if she lied, the woman testified yesterday. The so-called Queen of Nice said her own mother lied before cancer killed her, Cindy Spengler, a former employee of O'Donnell's now-defunct magazine, Rosie, testified. "You know what happens to people who lie? They get sick and they get cancer. If they keep lying, they get it again," Spengler, who battled breast cancer, recalled O'Donnell's saying after a July 2002 staff meeting. The weepy witness from Westport, Conn., said she replied, "Your mother died of...
