Rosie To O: Admit It, Already!

Rosie O'Donnell trained her gaydar on Oprah Winfrey and her BFF Gayle King on "The View," saying that the talk-show queen and her BFF Gayle King are, despite their protestations to the contrary and despite their not being full-blown lovers, "a tiny bit gay." As the denizens of "The View" mused about Oprah and Gayle's cross-country trip, as chronicled on Oprah's season premiere Monday, Rosie turned her attention to the pair. Her assessment? "You might be a little bit gay, you're just not doin' it," she said of O and G, explaining that an absence of sex wouldn't preclude the pair from sharing in a certain sapphic satisfaction.

Whether or not she's pushing Oprah and Gayle towards an admission, Rosie also said that she thinks everyone could be "a tiny bit gay." Needless to say, her cohort and sparring partner Elisabeth Hasselbeck does not.

A call to Oprah's rep at Harpo Productions was not returned. And Rosie, on her blog yesterday, lavished praise on Oprah and the premiere, saying that she was "brilliant," "beautiful," and "something else all [sic] together."

91. To Cheryl Re: your "sin" post
I f YOU would read your bible, you would see that NOWHERE does it say a woman shall not lie down with a woman. AND when it talks about a man not lying down with a man, it is after a story about INCEST, not homosexuality! If more people WOULD actually read their Bible instead of believing everything that comes out of the mouth of an IMPERFECT man( yes, ministers are imperfect too) then perhaps the words of Jesus would truely be followed - He only taught LOVE. He never said ONE WORD about homosexuality being a sin!

92. Enough of Rosie already!! Every chance she gets to cram that gay crap down our throats you bet she's gonna take it. There's a reason people are ashamed to come out of the closet, it is morally wrong. The governor getting on national televison and trying to justify his life and make it coincide with his religious beliefs was just sick. I'm not a bible thumper but it's written out in black and white. Maybe people in general would be better off if they took it literally and not try to twist it to suit themselves.

93. Wow I am surrounded by idiots. The one who made the comment about O and G making it racial, was a complete idiot. That didnt even make sense, and as far as them getting into that store, if it was Paris Hilton trying to get in "when the store was closed" I bet those doors would open magically. You all are friggin idiots...

94. Of course I meant to say "God made breathing involuntary",
although I fiqure that Rosie and her playmates, I mean gaymates probably
wouldn't notice or understand the difference either way. Call me
"homo-phobic" if you wish, we all have our burdens to bear.
Unfortunately Rosie's Christia-phobic, straighta-phobic,
decent-aphobic, intelligent-aphobic attitude is being splashed across
the airwaves for all to see and hear. It is very nice to know that we
will not have to tolerate her in Heaven.

95. Thank you God for taking the bible out of school, it will stop the brainwashing of a stupid religion thats thinks the world is flat and the earth is 6000 yrs old written by 44 idiots that thought god talks to them, idiots!!! Thanks for saving abortions rights so women who are raped by disgusting heterosexual men do not have to have their babies...this country was founded by christians/bible readers who killed a whole race of people(indians) and stole their land away from them....Thank God homonsexuality is finally normal and people now know they are born that way from birth, and cannot change themselves..if your straight try forcing yourself to have sex with the same sex, thats what its like..I had a great childhood but always knew since I was 6 that I was different....Too bad the stupid ignorant white trash idiots dont relize that because they are really uneducated...like anyone would choice to be gay, choose to be mentally retarted, choose to be black, indian, or whatever...all you gay haters are really fucking stupid

96. Ummm...#76...I'm a woman, not a man. So the young boy thing, yeah.
Is spelling important to anyone besides me here?

97. Take it literally? So, you never again want to eat pork or shrimp? You want to be totally submissive to a man? You don't want your opinions to count because you are just a woman? You want to be considered 'unclean' once a month? You don't want to be able to teach because you are a woman? Like I said - READ it before you go spouting off!

98. As always, people, both Christian and Non Christians, pull out little bitty phrases out of the The Bible that supports their ignorance. You do not READ The Bible, you STUDY The Bible, it is a learning tool and "guide" for the way to live your life. It is up to you, as a right given to you by God, to follow it or not follow it. But I would certainly make the observation that most "against" comments about the "sin" point view is very angry, hositle, and unforgiving. Ignorance mixed with Arrogance - a truly nasty combination!

99. I think that Rosie O'Donnell not only owes Oprah and Gayle an apology (Oprah's sexuality is no one's business, but her own ). She also owes christians one, as well.God is the final judge. Not Rosie O'Donnell

Just because your a fag and dont get into heaven doesnt mean you get to spout a bunch of crap all over the place.
Be angry man thats fine but at least admit that your angry because your brain is all f**cked up. Probably because one of your family members started molesting you at 6 about the time you realized you were "different".
First of all the baby didn't rape anyone. If that is the case in the pregnancy, kill the man not the child.
Second, homosexuality will NEVER be NORMAL. Tolerated yes, but not normal.
Third, I have never been nor will I ever be white trash. I am also educated. I would stake money on the fact that I have a higher education than you do.
This forum isn't for a bunch of homo's or a bunch of homo bashers to spout nonsense. It is to voice your opinion about what Rosie said on "The View."
Why are you here John? Just to be angry about your life and to make sure everyone gets to know about it??

101. Why is it that the Holy, church-going, bible-quoting people who have responded to this are the most aggressively hostile, mean, nasty, insulting, foul-mouthed, awful people imagineable? Is this Christ's way? Is this the way your God loves? Is this how the Bible teaches you to behave? You people are making a bad name for Christianity. But you don't seem to get it. Because YOUR way is the right way.

Interestingly, not many of you know much about grammar or spelling, either!

102. I have read it and I know it's hard for an overbearing lesbian such as yourself to understand mutual respect in the way it was intended. I am so sick of our lives being bombarded by all the gay rights crap. If you are gay you know who you are, why does it have to be forced on everyone else? LIve your life and be happy with the choices you have made for yourself. No one else wants to see it.

103. I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF IT
IT JUST TODAY"S TV!!
ANYWAY OPRAH IS A BIGGG GIRL SHE CAN HANDEL HERSELF
SO DON'T GET YOUR BLOOD PRSSURE UP

104. A little bit gay? It happens in degrees? Isn't that like being a little bit pregnant?
The strange thing is, if someone were to say they didn't have any gay friends because they didn't want anyone to think they were homosexual, Rosie would have a fit. But if you have a close friend of the same sex, Rosie claims you're gay.

105. It is really ashame that Rosie really believes anyone gives a rats bitt on what she thinks. As for the VIEW..Rosie will sink that ship like she did her own show and Magazine.
