The ladies of "The View" tackled the U.S. attorney firing controversy with more false information, comparisons to the mob, and once again Rosie O’Donnell called for impeachment. Rosie reported her take of how the attorney firings went down.
O’DONNELL: Okay, Republican officials who supposedly called these judges that were fired and said, are you going to prosecute this Democratic, and they said, I can't talk about that because I'm actually a judge, and it's illegal. And they said "click," and they got fired.
HASSELBECK: Yes.
O’DONNELL: Now what is really scary, are the ones who they called and said yeah, sure I will. And they're still on the bench. That’s even more frightening.
First, these were attorneys, not judges, the president fired. Judges are appointed for life and the president has no authority to fire them. As previously noted, there were plausible and very defensible reasons for the firings of at least three U.S. attorneys. One reason for Carol Lam’s dismissal was her failure to prosecute gun crimes. Rosie O’Donnell, a famous gun control advocate, did not note that. Token non-liberal Elisabeth Hasselbeck did not challenge Rosie on that claim.
Rosie brought up her favorite subject again, calling to impeach the president. Hasselbeck felt that would be "a bit extreme right now."
O’DONNELL: I think if there’s not enough reason to call for the impeachment of the president, I don't know what it takes. Somebody needs to stand up and do it.
[applause]
HASSELBECK: I think it's a bit extreme right now. I think it’s a bit extreme right now.
This led Rosie to speak of her other obsession: The administration is allegedly "torturing" terrorists.
O’DONNELL: You have to have seen that documentary. Did you see his handwriting on the torture memos?
HASSELBECK: It standing on a box for eight hours was not that bad. That's what [Donald Rumsfeld’s] hand writing said.
O’DONNELL: And the people who were on the box, Elisabeth, were hooded, they had electrodes to them.
HASSELBECK: Right, he did not, he did not authorize that
O’DONNELL: He just wanted to stand on the box like you did on "Survivor."
HASSELBECK: I’m saying if you’re going by what he authorized.
O’DONNELL: It was a torture memo.
Joy Behar exclaimed this is another Watergate. Rosie did not buy that, this is much bigger in Rosie’s World.
BEHAR: It's Watergate again.
REID: It is. That’s what they’re saying.
BEHAR: There’s a lot of that going on. It’s deja vu all over again.
O’DONNELL: It's Watergate exponentially increased, because Watergate was Nixon and a bunch of guys who broke into his competitors building to see what their plans were.
BEHAR: There was abuse of power in those days and all of that.
O’DONNELL: Not to the extent of this administration. I mean, come on.
Finally, Rosie, in a really bizarre statement, compared firing only a certain number of prosecutors, as opposed to all of them, to "mob tactics"
O’DONNELL: But wait, but wait, if he wiped out 95 judges the first day, and you don't cherry pick the ones who are going to hurt your administration. That’s very different. That's mob tactics. That's Tony Soprano. We’re going to lean on people. That's what the president’s doing. That’s scary.

March 28, 2007 - 16:13 ET by motherbeltIt is no surprise that Rosie the O is mouthing off about something that she has no idea about. It's not even surprising that none of the other women know enough to be able to correct her. Attorneys, judges, what's the difference? Who cares?
Which part of "at the pleasure of the President" do they not understand????
Elisabeth Hasselbeck is the one that really makes me want to scream. Why does she kowtow to Rosie????? Impeaching the President is "a bit extreme right now"???? That's the best she could come up with?
Whoever dubbed this show "Rosie's Pig Pen" hit the nail on the head. She tramples everyone and everything in her insistence on running the show.
PS: that picture of Rosie is typical; mouth wide open and waving her arms. Same drivel, different day.
I agree with your assessment
March 28, 2007 - 16:57 ET by GalvanicI agree with your assessment of Hasselbeck. She occasionally has the facts in order and fights back well, but generally, she gets brow-beaten by O'Donnell and her basket of myths. Behar is even dumber than O'Donnell, so she just cheerleads. And Walters --- once considered a serious journalist --- rarey corrects "The Mouth" when she should know better.
I'd pay to be in the studio audience the day "The View" has someone like Peggy Noonan, Laura Ingraham, or Kate O'Beirne to call O'Donnell on her 'facts. I list those ladies, because the producers would never let Ann Coulter or Michelle Malkin on the show to make them all look stupid.

I wish Hasselbeck had the courage to say that then tell Baba Wawa,"You, Madam are a complete farce. You and your lardass queen over here should both br drummed off the air.

March 29, 2007 - 16:45 ET by Challenger GrimIt has always seemed to me that liberals have a much stronger need to be vindicated and to 'belong' to a group - that they have a much greater problem with individuality than a lot of conservatives. It doesn't take long for a surfer of a liberal site to find a commentator or two claiming (perhaps, reassuring) how reality and the vast majority agree with him/her and the like minded echo of the site. (my favorite quote from that link: what do they have? culturally?? other than Toby
Keith? I wonder what music these people listen to or what films they
watch? For instance, do they EVER see stand-up comedy?? They have
nowhere to turn because EVERYONE disagrees with them and they hate it. )
I've yet to see a sign that they can really exist outside a herd mentality. So many conservatives I've met wouldn't be depressed/angry/etc if they were the only one in a 100% liberal world. I guess it comes from having a backbone.

March 28, 2007 - 19:03 ET by ApacheIPThat poor woman is so ignorant, she doesn't know the difference between a "judge" and a US Attorney. Here's a freebie Rosie, US Attorneys are not sitting judges. And I rather doubt you would want them to be. If that were the case, they could argue their case to THEMSELVES while prosecuting. Talk about being judge, jury and executioner! They would be both prosecutor and judge. That would definitely help their percentage of successful convictions though. ;)
What is really sad is that most of her audience probably doesn't understand the distinction either.

March 28, 2007 - 20:17 ET by ApacheIPI don't normally read any of the Rosie posts. I see her picture next to the post on the front page of newsbusters, and I know without reading a single word that Rosie has said something completely insane and devoid of all logic and rational thought. It is really a case of same song, different day.
I forced myself to read this particular newsbusters post because I realize that (as scary and unfathomable as it may seem) Rosie provides an accurate portrayal of a not so insignificant portion of the American populace. As much as I would prefer to turn my head, or should I say bury my head in the sand, I force myself to stay semi-abreast of her lunatic ravings, just to be informed. But truthfully, I would prefer to bury my head in the sand. I love this country dearly. I would give my dying breath in defense of this country. And it pains me to see just how devoid of rational thought some of its citizens are. Some of those people are voting!

Now, she is letting it be said - all the things she evidently believes herself.
In other words - "what tree would you be?" really was the level of her intelligence.

If it is religious (Christian mostly) it is bad.
If it is moral, it is bad.
If it is in any way American, it is evil.
They are engaged in a war against the basic of the Constitution while hiding behind it. Example: Rosie can spout any amount of drivel she wants yet cuts off the speech and belittles the token conservative on the show. Then she will complain about the vast right wing and how it is trying to silence her.

March 29, 2007 - 10:19 ET by Airforce_5_OI believe it started with Carter and his getting in bed with Arafat. Through the Regan years the counter culture off spring (Kerry, Clinton, ect...) really started their quest for power and a general hatred for the Conservative movement. You can see the shift of the left in the schools and colleges of America.
With Clinton coming into power we saw a crippling of the structure of the military and the intelligence departments.
As partisan politics began to take hold in America it became the us against them attitude. You saw on the left that any action we took to secure the well being of this country the Democrats hated and voted against it. This is where the attitude of America is evil has came from.
Without flexing our muscle and putting down Bin Laden early we have enabled our enemies. When people like Rosie spout her bile across the air ways and our present Congress does not support our President they empower them.

Okay. Here's my take on O'Don
March 29, 2007 - 11:58 ET by QueenMumOkay. Here's my take on O'Donnell and "The View":
I would guess that the audience is composed of young, ignorant, single females who have no jobs and may be at home with young children which they prefer to ignore. While other stay-at-home moms are too busy raising their children to have the time to sit down for coffee and chatter with the likes of O'Donnell and Behar. I believe that "The View" is nothing but a left wing tool being used to indoctrinate a whole class of people who will believe anything that someone who may be richer and more successful has to say. These viewers have neither the intelligence nor any interest in learning about the facts on their own. Such programs are mere distractions for such viewers. And their influence is subtle but effective. And Walters knows exactly what she's doing. She's on the set in order to give the whole enterprise the appearance of respectability and credibility.
