Elisabeth Hasselrighteous

I flip between wanting to strangle Elisabeth Hasselbeck for driving me nuts and giving her a high-five for being so idealistically dumb. These quotes don't bother me...it's listening to her on The View. It's hard to like anybody who defends George W. Bush and this administration.

Here she is talking and posing for Pregnancy magazine:

On being pregnant and arguing with Rosie O’Donnell: “When a woman cries, it’s never seen as a sign of strength and never seen in a positive light. A man cries and he’s sensitive, and a woman cries and she’s weak. So even when you’re debating another woman, the first person to cry pretty much loses.”

On being a conservative mother in 2007: “Being a conservative mother isn’t the challenge. Being a conservative in New York City on television is the challenge.”

It's Rosie, Bitch!

Rosie O'Donnell loves her some trouble with a side of controversy and garnished with some bully. This time she's taking shots at Barbara Walters. That's right! Barbara effing Walters.

In her upcoming memoir, Celebrity Detox, which sheds light on, among other episodes in her life, the TV star's tumultuous stint last season on The View, O'Donnell, 45, addresses Walters, 77, to say, "And Barbara. At some point, a person gets tired. It's inevitable," the New York Post reports.

"Barbara Walters is almost twice my age," the book (which is to be published Oct. 2) is quoted as saying. "At some point it becomes necessary to step back. Everyone has to go. Going is part of the gig."

O'Donnell also reportedly states, "I would be less-than-honest if I were to say that there is no trouble between Barbara and I. I mean, our differences are obvious."

O'Donnell writes that during commercial breaks on The View, audience members would sometimes shout out, "I love you, Rosie" – "and Barbara politely tells them in a schoolteacher tone, 'It is impolite to say I love you to one person when there are four of us up here.' "

The View Gets Whoopi-licious

Word on the street is ABC will announce next week Ms. Whoopi Goldberg will fill Rosie O'Donnell's abandoned seat on The View.

Rosie led a turbulent existence on the show and her departure was no different but thank goodness we've moved on...well, except for Rosie.

Not So Rosie View

Rosie O'Donnell announced that she will leave "The View" when her contract is up in June.

“Breaking News. I've decided we couldn't come to terms with my deal on ABC. Next year I won’t be on The View, but I will be back guest hosting," O'Donnell said....“They wanted three years, I wanted one," she said.

She told the audience: “It’s not sad. I’ll still be here. I just won’t be doing the every day thing.”

Barbara Walters interjected, "I know it's not supposed to be sad, but I am sad...You will be missed."

Did anyone think Rosie and "The View" would last any longer than one year? I didn't. People don't like strongly opinionated women and Rosie definitely falls into that category.

While she certainly had some extreme points of view (9/11 conspiracy, etc.) I wholeheartedly support her quest for truth and the right of the American people to question our government and shove out those who are corrupt.

She'll be guest hosting here or there. Good luck to you Rosie! And I'm boycotting any damn news organization that interviews Donald "The Flip" Trump about the matter. Why they give that dude publicity is beyond me.

** In other "The View" news: Alec Baldwin will be on the show this FRIDAY so be sure to watch to hear his defense of speaking to his daughter so nastily.
