On the May 2 "View" co-host Barbara Walters previewed the upcoming issue of Time and it’s feature on the "100 most influential people." On that list is the radical left co-host Rosie O’Donnell. The criteria are people "who helped dictate international dialogue," quite fitting for a woman who uses "ching chong" to describe international news. The article’s headline reads "Rosie O’Donnell. The TV host who loves to fight." Barbara Walters noted that she wrote the article. The transcript of the exchange is below.
BARBARA WALTERS: Time magazine this Friday comes out with an issue of the 100 most influential people in the whole entire world. And the reason that they are influential is: "It is the fourth annual list of the most influential people in the world who helped dictate international dialogue." Why do I care? Because one of those people is a "TV host who loves a fight," Rosie O'Donnell!
[Cheers and applause]
ROSIE O’DONNELL: Wow! Look at my picture.
WALTERS: It doesn't come out until Friday. We don't have the actual cover. And then they have people writing about them.
O’DONNELL: And who writes about me?
WALTERS: I wrote about you. I submitted an advance to you and finished it and then you decided not to do the show and I had to rewrite it.

May 2, 2007 - 12:57 ET by Gat New YorkWalters has dementia. She wrote about Rosie O'Dougnuts as one of the 100 most influential people in the world!!! She has lost it. I can't wait to hear Trump's reaction to this. And as for TIME, this sinks them to the depth of a pulp tabloid gossip rag.

May 2, 2007 - 13:18 ET by BeowulfRosie "The Mouth" is one of the most influential people in the world. She ranks right up there with Im-A-Dinner-Jacket in Iran, Assad in Syria, Nasrallah from Hizbollah, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and the Goracle. All loud-mouthed morons. And all influential....

Baba absolutely is demented. She dumps Rosie O'Dumbass and replaces that thing with another filthy colostomy bag by the name of Roseanne Barr - an anti-semitic, anti-mormon, and true believer in conspiracies.

First of all, let's not get too excited here; after all it is Time Magazine that has put her on the list, not exactly a surprise there.
And, as indicated by her quotes above, this will only inflate her already huge ego and feed her narcissism. Nothing like Time rewarding a racist (see the "ching chong" story) who thinks our soldiers are poor, stupid felons with this nomination. Imagine a conservative saying these things and getting such a nomination.

Disappointment
May 2, 2007 - 13:06 ET by SarahAnnieDear me, I am shocked, shocked, I say, that Ms. Walters nominated this gasbag. Guess she must have been too busy finding an acceptable picture of RO'D (how about the one at the Women in Media or whatever Awards) to read my email I sent to her, asking her to challenge Rosie to produce numbers and facts on her assertion that she supports the troops financially.

Time’s most influential people is like the Academy Awards, just liberals hugging each other to feel good.

May 2, 2007 - 13:33 ET by bigtimerWaWa just proves my point every single day....Rosie is just a mouth-piece for her leftist views.
She is not bonkers, she is a leftist, always has been always will be, you know, one of those enemies within, but always proceeds as if she is soooo intelligent and above everyone who would dare criticize her.
I am glad she has shown her true colors the older she gets for all to see....and really glad for the internet.
Sounds like Rosie is just going to be replaced with another big-mouthed leftist nut-case named Roseanne, both dumb as a box of rocks, she fits right in the seat, body and all.

Like Dick Morris, Rosie is someone who needs to find The Lord, get their life straight(stop bringing kids in to non-family settings) and then simply lead a normal life and lead others to the same.
Is there any doubt that she is one of the 100 UNHAPPIEST People in America, maybe the World?
What conservative would dare to show their faces like this when their sinful lives are exposed (Former Sen. Livingston comes to mind). Do we have a Carville/Flynt team doing the non-stop snooping. We need to remember that they do and WE MUST BE ABOVE REPROACH! They do not to be because they have no conscience-that still small voice that He puts in us to know right from wrong.

May 2, 2007 - 14:35 ET by GalvanicI guess I'm still trying to figure out just whom O'Donnell influences. She certainly gets people work up with her half-baked theories and wacky opinions, but does she change any minds, or influence any decisions?
Then again, we're talking about the once-reputable TIME magazine, which now must compete with People and Us for the pop-cultured.

May 3, 2007 - 06:38 ET by dahliatraversYou're right, Galvanic, she really hasn't influenced. The qualification to get on this list was someone who "helped dictate international dialog". Rosie hasn't dictated a dialog about anything (though she does try to dictate to Elizabeth H). All she does is repeat ridiculous theories without researching or questioning them. It's makes for great television but very poor dialog shaping.

May 3, 2007 - 07:24 ET by Gat New YorkI think the criteria they used was how many more copies can we sell if we put a person in there - regardless if they even have a brain.
