63. If Rosie leaves The View, they should shut it down. Rosie and Joy are the best, and Barbara also when she is there. Elisabeth should be the one to leave. She is boring, does not have an original thought.

71. Oh, I see Rosie's being IMUSED. This, of course, ONLY happens to liberal white people. You'll hear plenty about hos and conspiracy theories IN RAP FOREVER.

Free Speech dies thanks to Fox News. GAG.

72. Anyone sure she isn't just going to take some time off to get her Lesbian organized cruise together and choose some islands that wll not protest this group?

Goodness, I hope they have canned her - with her nasty, opinionated , argumentative, know it all "UN - American" mouth.

I wouldn't be surprised if her "adopted" children don't grow up with deep mental and psyhological scars.
