"View" co-host Rosie O’Donnell displayed her disdain for opposing "views" when she shut off the show’s only non-liberal, Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Rory Kennedy appeared on the March 20 edition to promote her film for HBO, "Ghosts of Abu Ghraib."
Hasselbeck gently asked what our government should do to extract vital information from captured terrorists. Rosie jumped in and asserted "before you answer that" then proceeded to ask an unrelated question regarding a general’s transfer from Guantanamo Bay to Abu Ghraib. Elisabeth responded by noting that detainees at Guantanamo are allowed to pray five times a day, and are well fed.
At that point the "Queen of Nice" cut her off, stating that Elisabeth "can’t just blather on" her "opinion" and she needed to ask a question. Obviously offended, Elisabeth stated that she did ask a question when Rosie interrupted with her own question. Rosie said it was because Hasselbeck dared to imply that Abu Ghraib was a result of a few bad apples and not condoned by the government. Those beliefs are not allowed in Rosie’s world. The transcript of the exchange is below.

Story Continues Below Ad ↓ELISABETH HASSELBECK: I saw the documentary. I know that children were held. But I think in the case of those held in cell blocks 1A and B that were, you know, high level terrorists with information. I mean, what do you do when you have a terrorists who has a ton of information? You know, like KSM, who just confessed. What do you do with him? Do you not use extreme measures?
ROSIE O’DONNELL: Okay, before you answer that, is it true that the person who was sent from Guant – Gitmo Bay, Guantanamo Bay over to Abu Ghraib –
RORY KENNEDY: General Miller
O’DONNELL: General Miller he was brought there because Donald Rumsfeld was not happy with the amount of information he was getting as a result of the torture techniques that they were doing there. So he went from the very successful torture place in Guantanamo Bay over to Abu Ghraib. Is that true?
KENNEDY: That is correct.
O’DONNELL: That’s true
HASSELBECK: Guantanamo Bay, also, so you know, as a whole, these were extreme methods that were horrific but I think to paint the entire Army's way of getting information really for our benefit to be safe is not accurate. I think at Guantanamo Bay they are allowed to have their prayer time five times a day, they’re served meals, and what do you-
O’DONNELL: Okay Elisabeth, you have to stop. You have to stop. You can ask a question, but you can't just blather on your opinion. She’s here to talk about that. Ask her a question.
HASSELBECK: I asked the question that you said before you answer I --
O’DONNELL: Because you're trying to say that what happened was just based on these few bad apples and what her whole entire film showed is that it was orchestrated by our own government and condoned by them and you saw it twice. [applause]
HASSELBECK: I saw it twice.
O’DONNELL: Yes, so if you have a question, ask her.
HASSELBECK: I asked her the question.
O’DONNELL: What's the question?
HASSELBECK: I asked her the question.
O’DONNELL: Should we torture people? She said no.

March 20, 2007 - 14:17 ET by JacksonCalhounIf I were a terrorist I would laugh (and drool in delight) at how many friends they have in this country. I refuse to wring my hands over anything that happens to that scum when we have them in our custody.

Question for those of you
March 20, 2007 - 15:08 ET by rainlillieQuestion for those of you who support
torture:
Should children be tortured in order to obtain
information?
How can we determine if these people are guilty or
innocent?
Should police officers in America be allowed to torture people that have
been arrested?
How can we claim the moral highground, if we too are torturing other
people..again these people haven't been convicted of anything.
I wrote this article for my local paper and it was the most downloaded
article of the week. I have since been contacted by many people requesting
permission to reprint.
Bush's America supports torture
The America I
believe in:
supports the rule of law.
Shows compassion when
needed.
Stands by the Constitution.
Stands by the Bill Of Rights.
Would
only use force against another country when necessary.
Is a country that
other countries look up to, not look down on.
Has a leader that tells its
people, I will always put my country before my party.
No matter what, we will
always have the moral high-ground.
We will never stoop to the enemy's
level.
We aren't Democrats and Republicans we are and always will be
Americans first.
God Bless America and the rest of the
world!

And, as your reward, you can take some small comfort in knowing that as the knife blade meets your spinal column, you'll still have just enough time to think to yourself "thank goodness the guy sawing my head off hasn't been tortured by evil Americans".
Idiot response
March 20, 2007 - 18:31 ET by PShannonRainlillie, you haven't got a clue what your talking about.
All your post does is to identify you as an absolute fool. Moral highground -- what a stupid phrase.
It is unlawful for Americans to torture -- and I hate that law -- if it were up to me we would be hanging these Muslim butchers by their balls.
Go back to the Democratic Underground with the rest of the anti-American idiots.
Your "justice system&q
March 20, 2007 - 21:28 ET by JacksonCalhounYour "justice system" approach to terrorism had 8 full years to work under B.J. Clinton. It didn't work. Saying "why do they hate us, we must have done something wrong" doesn't work. Waiting for the next attack....doesn't work. Treating our enemies who, again I repeat, purposely blow up innocent women and children, like humans, doesn't work.
Rainlillie is the new majority - get used to it
March 20, 2007 - 22:31 ET by w0tmAs much as most of the posts to rainlillie (I'll assume she is female) have railed at her simplistic, perfect world, "it takes two to make a fight", "let's all be nice" words, we must accept she and many millions like her are the new majority. We lost in 2006 and 2008 will be the last free election in our 235-year experiment in democracy. Countless millions (whether they realize it or not) now openly follow the "teachings" of Gandhi repeated every day by thousands of Useful Idiots with electronic and print megaphones (Main Stream Media). Of all that Gandhi said in his life, these words sum up our world here at the beginning of the third millennium and the looming demise of our civilization more than anything else. This is reality. These people really do believe WE are evil. They and we should, and must, die. Be scared. Be very, very scared.
Gandhi (1944) plus words of explanation
During World War II, Gandhi penned an open letter to the British people, urging them to surrender to the Nazis. Later, when the extent of the Holocaust was known, he criticized Jews who had tried to escape or fight for their lives as they did in Warsaw and Treblinka. "The Jews should have offered themselves to the butcher's knife," he said. "They should have thrown themselves into the sea from cliffs." "Collective suicide," he told his biographer, "would have been heroism."
Question for those of you who
March 21, 2007 - 07:55 ET by EKOGQuestion for those of you who support torture:
I don’t support torture but in extreme cases can in my own mind see the need for it such as terrorist actions where large numbers of people could die. To save those people torture might be necessary.
Should children be tortured in order to obtain information?
No! But don’t expect the same self control or compassion based on age from our current enemy.
How can we determine if these people are guilty or innocent?
If they are enemy combatants (guilt is easy to determine if they are trying to kill you) they should be held till the end of the war (which is usually viewed as a more humanitarian option then just killing them outright) and continue interrogating them throughout their stay.
If they are a suspect in a crime use good interrogation techniques, investigation, and eventual prosecution.
Should police officers in America be allowed to torture people that have been arrested?
No! There are laws that specifically address these issues. It seems that most on the left and the MSM believe that interrogation is tantamount to torture which it is not. If a police officer stopped you on the road and asked you questions about your understanding of the rules of the road that is interrogation not torture (believe it or not). If you are forced sit in a room in which music is playing that you don’t like of find offensive that is torment not torture. If you were caused physical pain and near death experiences now that would be torture.
How can we claim the moral highground, if we too are torturing other people..again these people haven't been convicted of anything.
Moral High-ground is earned not clamed it is something to strive for but once you believe that you have it or have achieved it you will never get it.
Why would YOU think that people need to be tortured after they had been convicted that would be stupid and a waste of time and effort.
I think that if you ask a stu
March 20, 2007 - 14:17 ET by BruzillaI think that if you ask a student who's stuck in detention without their cell phone or MP3 player, and forced to do homework, if they are being tortured... they would say most certainly "yes". If you ask someone who's stuck in a federal prison, in general population, if that student is being tortured, they would say "no, but I am being tortured." If you asked someone who was dressed as a woman, and led around on a dog leash if the guy in a prison is being tortured, he would say "no, but I am being tortured." If you ask a guy who's being waterboarded if the guy with the dog leash is being tortured, he would say "no, but I am being tortured." If you ask a guy who's being burned with cigarettes, having his fingernails slowly peeled off, and electrical shocks to his testicals, if the guy being waterboarded is being tortured, he would say "no, but I am being tortured." If you ask the guy who is having his skin flayed off after watching his wife and daughters being raped and murdered if the guy guy who's being burned with cigarettes, having his fingernails slowly peeled off, and electrical shocks to his testicals is being tortured, he would say "no, but I am being tortured." If you ask the guy who's slowly being fed alive into a woodchipper if any of the previous people we're being tortured, if you could hear through the screams I think he would say "no, but I am being tortured."
I think that liberals have made "torture" into the sexual harassment of the new century. Apparently everyone, who suffers in any way, is a "victim of torture", without reguard to where this person falls on the scumbag scale. So here we are, discussing if our use of waterboarding and other interogation techniques that leave no permanent damage, is the equivalent of feeding people alive into woodchippers, flaying them, killing family members, etc. I would venture to guess that anyone who's been subjected to these real tortures would feel blessed to be waterboarded.

March 20, 2007 - 14:49 ET by lkoturWe need to keep and support Rosie and her "views". As Rosie continues to slide further off the scale of sanity, eventually Barbra Walters will have to, for the sake of what is left of her credibility, tell Rosie to shut her pie hole. Now that will be "must see TV".

March 20, 2007 - 14:26 ET by Gat New YorkRegarding Rory Kennedy.
This is the anointed family. The family that truly believes they are the America’s royal family and wish it be treated as such. In reality they are not only arrogant they include killers, criminals, liars, major substance abusers, and demagogues. They are traced back to old Joe Kennedy who was a friend of Hitler, made a deal with Giancana to get his son elected, and was a bootlegger of Scotch whiskey in the U.S.
So let there be no misunderstanding who we are dealing with. Rory Kennedy intentionally lied by substituting the word “torture” in place of “interrogation” techniques regarding Gitmo as well as Abu Ghraub. She lied about people being prosecuted for Abu Ghraub. She lied about the fact there is no “ticking time bomb” when it comes to potential terror threats.
It should not surprise anyone coming from the family that produced:
This is just another attempt by members of the Kennedy clan to discredit, not just the Bush Administration, but our Armed Forces and the United States people. This pathetic diatribe of hatred should be exposed and rejected for what it is.
One can only imagine how utterly disgusted JFK would be with the conduct of these relatives.

Let's face it, she adds nothing to any reasonable discussion. I am, quite frankly, sick to death of her. I think we are all sick of talking about her, and I honestly don't think there is anything to say about her that hasn't been said already.

As far as torture goes. These fascist heathens are not apart of any country. They will not treat you as part of any country. They will slit your throat on camera and show it off to all the Islamic American hater world on Al-Jazeera. They do not care about your rights, why in the world shold we care about theirs.

I would suffer more for my acts of compassion...

All Bullies are Cowards. That is a fact. ACA

We meet Bullies in our everyday life all the time. I can't stand them and tell them they are bullies whenever I get a chance.
Some folks seem to like seeing a bully in action. I guess that is why Barbara Walters (who should resign immediately over Rosie's lies) sits there.
I dunno.

Actually, the problem isn't t
March 20, 2007 - 19:08 ET by balboaActually, the problem isn't that Hasselback needs to be replaced, it's that Rosie does. She's too large a personality (yes, I know, and she's actually large), too opinionated for what's supposed to be a calm little show like The View. Guar-an-tee that Behar would have less to yap about without Rosie around.
boa..I agree with you about B
March 20, 2007 - 19:16 ET by bigtimerboa..
I agree with you about Behar being at a loss for much input without Rosie...but seriously who but idiots watch the silly leftist show anyway....but other clueless people and rabid leftists.
You have to be insane to watch that tripe if you ask me...which I know ya didn't...just a statement.
Yeah, the only reason I would
March 20, 2007 - 19:25 ET by balboaYeah, the only reason I would watch is to stare at Hasselback anyway, so...
Why is the view so conserva
March 20, 2007 - 20:32 ET by wiwfWhy is the view so conservative-ophobic? I thought liberals embraced all lifestyles, even ones that they don't live by.

rosie the pig
March 20, 2007 - 20:41 ET by JOEL714I cannot understand why so many women, including educated and intelligent woman watch this fat pig bully her associates and spout her brand of loose lefty lunacy on a daily basis. She got into a pissing match with Donald Frump and came out no worse for wear. Is this bitch bulletproof or just so obnoxious that no one wants to stand toe to toe and slug it out with her ignorance and bullying? Doesn't she realize that only in the USA could a queer loudmouth be so successful on TV and make a pile of money being obnoxious and ignorant. Let her defend the muslim maniacs, as they want to murder her and her fruitcake lover.
ARRGGHH!!! Rosie O'Donnel ma
March 20, 2007 - 20:57 ET by mostlymoderateARRGGHH!!! Rosie O'Donnel makes me so damn mad. I know I shouldn't let it get to me, I know it is just a stupid TV show. But GOSH, what a mouth she has. Hasselbeck is so damn gorgeous...now if we can just get her a spine. She should have danced ALL OVER O'Donnel this morning.
Dear America,America apolog
March 20, 2007 - 23:08 ET by wiwfDear America,
America apologizes for the view
it's plain that hasselbeck knows
March 21, 2007 - 13:12 ET by tumbler_2007Hasselbeck has heard that old saw:
When a fool's beating up on him/herself, leave her to finish the job. Don't stop her.
People in the national audience aren't all so dense. They observe the O'Donnell meltdown. Soon the only ones who'll be able to stomach her will be gays and lesbians.
I estimate half the viewers of The View are watching to see how abominable Rosie can be all in one afternoon. Not out of admiration or sympathy. I'm sure glad she doesn't represent Republicans. Think how demoralizing that would be !
Hasselbreckgirl -- It's not
March 21, 2007 - 13:32 ET by Jack BauerHasselbreckgirl --
It's not enough to stack the Spew against conservatives.
They have to use the usual media lib***l trick of putting on a fake "conservative" who couldn't argue the case for being good in Heaven.
And it's not like there aren't a ton of smart sassy real conservatives who could wipe the floor intellectually with that giant carbon buttprint called Rosie O'Donnell, and her trusty snidekick, Joy of Sux.
Such as Laura Ingraham. Michelle Malkin. Melanie Morgan.
if it were their objective
March 21, 2007 - 13:46 ET by tumbler_2007If their motive was to provide fireworks, yes.
That's hardly what The View is about. Never in this lifetime would they offer a conservative their platform, especially to level the playing field. Hasselbeck is only there as a token, and even she knows it. I often suspected Tucker Carlson was the same thing on CNN. Long ago when I used to watch that cluster-f..k.
Martin Luther King got a lot

TORTURE???
March 20, 2007 - 23:19 ET by ShadowTXI am sick and tired of you nutty libs comparing interrogation tactics that we use as torture. Would you rather be water boarded or have your eyes poked out with a hot poker? Or how about just being slowly beheaded listening to yourself gurgling on your blood? Get freakin REAL!
And Rosie O'Dimwit, why don't you renounce your lesbianism and marry Alex Jones at www.infowars.com ? You two would make a perfect couple.
Nawwww. Rosie ought to marry
March 20, 2007 - 23:24 ET by NL207Nawwww. Rosie ought to marry Sampson down at the Simian House. More her speed. He's just her type, big, fat and hairy.
I wonder what the opinionated
March 21, 2007 - 09:33 ET by legionI wonder what the opinionated battle axe thinks of the new insurgent tactic for getting through security checkpoints? http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,260060,00.html
I'll bet anyone, she'll defend it! Talk about "treason"!!!!!
How much longer?
March 21, 2007 - 22:49 ET by LJSHow much longer is the network going to allow this mentally unstable cow to blather on? She is rude, close minded and disgusting to watch....
