O'Reilly Blasts O'Donnell, Paper Brands Her "Tokyo Rosie"

Now she's not just "nutty," she's the enemy ... of WW2?!

Rosie O'Donnell felt Bill O'Reilly's wrath again last night on "The O'Reilly Factor," with Bill calling her "radical" and "dangerous," and suggesting, as a financial newspaper did, that she's spewing anti-American propaganda.

In his "Talking Points" segment last night, O'Reilly picked up the Investor's Business Daily's editorial calling O'Donnell "Tokyo Rosie," a reference to "Tokyo Rose," the nickname American GIs gave to Japanese women who broadcast anti-American messages over the airwaves during World War II.

As of this morning, Rosie had posted no response on her usual soapbox at rosie.com.

76. Thank God for the off button on my remote....that way I do not have to listen to either of them.

77. It always amazes me when people will listen to what the one person says that the other person says and never bother to find out if they really said it.
People post on ROs site and Bill quotes them as if it had been RO who said it.
Try doing some research before you just assume the moron in front of you knows what he/she is saying. She NEVER claimed that US Gov. was responsible for 9/11.
And she makes a lot of valid points about what happened and why it could not have happened the way it did without some other influences.
I'm not saying I agree with everything she says or in all of her theories but she raises good questions and only a complete idiot would just ignore it for the comfort of just pointing to a moron lie Bill O. and saying "I believe him because then I don't have to think for myself".

78. 16.He won't let her bully him like she does on ROSIE's VIEW... the way she runs all over Elisabeth.

by Vivi

1) There would be no VIEW without Rosie
2) Elisabeth would be UNemployed (besides, who couldn't resist running over her? I mean, she should just wear a sign that says, "Pick on me, Rosie! Give ME some attention!)

LOL
Way to go, Rosie. I hope ABC gives you a raise. You're a marketing GENIUS! hehehe

79. There is no compassion ,tolerance,and forgiveness when extremist are trying to kill you and your family! You should thank God and the Republicians every night before you go to sleep that there hasn't been an attack on U.S. soil since 9/11. Whether you like it or not, the Republicians are keeping you safe. Nancy Pelosi going to Syria? Do you liberals really think Syria wants to make peace with the U.S. in that cesspool they call the Middle East. Wake up people,other countries want to kill us. Its very simple,they just hate us.

82. I'm glad someone is taking a stand against Rosie. She's dangerous. Some people believe her nonsense--she has an important platform.

Our gov't. may not be right all the time, but we have the best that is out there. Rosie and Charlie Sheen--get out of your mansions, off your lazy duffs and go live in Iran so you can enjoy all the great benefits of living under that wonderful gov't. I wonder how tolerant they'd be of the two of them, especially Rosie--I'm sure they just love gay women with big mouths.

I'm sorry for poster #12, but it's not even a question--we didn't attack ourselves and this whole ridiculous conspiracy theory that we happened to plant bombs at the time we knew the terrorists were going to fly planes into the building is absolutely paranoia.

There is therapy and medication available for nuts like this.

83. Why are 95% of these anti Rosi posts from the SAME IP address? I also wonder if Investor's Business Daily is one of Rupert Murdoch companies

84. Cindy K -- My point was that the true heros of 9/11 did not blindly accept the status quo (i.e. "go back to your desks") that was being pushed by the people in authority.

I'm not at all saying Rosie is a "hero"...but she does encourage people to question the status quo and to not blindly accept everything they are told by "people who should know" as the truth they are going to follow.

I shudder to think how many more deaths would have occurred on 9/11 if there had not been people like Rick who dared to question authority figures.

I do not believe all that the conspiracy theorists have to say. I also don't believe a virgin gave birth 2000 years ago or that there is some mystical magical place only good people get to go to after they die (what about the bad people who are loved by good people?)

I do think that management weighs risk all of the time and that sometimes it is decided that the costs to solve the problems entirely are too great. I also think that when management screws up with the risk they have accepted...sometimes the results are fatal.

Bush being my country's top manager has been a horrendous experience for many people.

86. To anyone that agrees with Rosie's opinion that we blew up tower 7 and the UK is trying to start a war and all of her other paranoid conspiracy theories, SHAME ON YOU!, We live in THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD! if you are not happy here why don't you go live in another country, any one of them, just pick one, you will never find one as great as the USA!. Let them trade places with any one of the MILLIONS of legal and illegal immigrants who come to this great country each and every year from all over the world so they can have a better life. Rosie, you should be ashamed of yourself, this country has made you extremely wealthy and famouse and in return , instead of building up our country and service in hard times you are ripping us down and tearing us apart with your lies. Stop being such a child trying to get constant attention with your "SHOCK JOCK " mentality and grow up and take responsibility for the things that come out of your mouth.

87. Rosie should be fired. It is not once in a while she talks bad about our country, it is every day!!!! Every day she is trying to get people riled up to impeach Bush.

She is just a LOUD MOUTH who doesn't even know what she is talking about.

Is this the spokesperson for DISNEY? If so, they are in trouble.

90. Mr O............................we have been through 6 years of lies, deceptions, stupidity, and the arrogance of the right wing press who keep plugging away , attempting to brainwash all who are dumb enough to listen............and now that the Emporer is finally NAKED....you have to call for the firing of a tv talk show host....not one of your own Republican liars...but a silly Talk show host..............is that really the most important thing on your agenda while you continue to avoid the deaths of thousands of young american soldiers, the putrified opinion of this country in the eyes of the world......(thank you, Mr Bush)......and what do you come up with?? Let's fire Rosie ...........come on Bill........... let us get to the real issues at hand..........can anyone say Impeachment? Rosie may not speak the truth for all of us...........but she speaks her truth and I thought that was what everyone is getting blown up and mutilated for. Am I wrong?
