Rosie eats girls like her for breakfast.

Don't hassel the 'beck, Rosie. She's grown a pair lately. Still annoying, to be sure, but at least somehow more tolerable, bizarrely enough.

the only way this could have been better is if the headline read "big, fat lesbian loud rosie attacks innocent, pure christian elisabeth."

Why is that fatbig fat lesbian attacking the poor innocent Christian girl?

Of course EH is not a coward. She's a moron. These are quite different categories.

Rosie's va-jay-jay could beat up Hasslebeck any day of the week. I'd step off.

At least Hasselbeck has a better rack, and that's post-partum.

Try my tiebreaker criteria when you need one, it always works.

Example: who has a better rack, Obama or Clinton.

Days like this I miss Debbie Matenopoulous. Or however you spell that surname.

Oh, I've seen that somewhere. That's a lovers' spat.

This is the first debate where I've actually sided with the Republican.

@NedB:

I wouldn't exactly put Rosie in the running for a Rhodes scholarship either.

split screen? eh, clearly they're not even in the same room. rosie's probably at home, naked from the waist down in front of a green screen, hurling rants at the camera. there's a little paper cutout of hasselbeck's head above the lens, just for inspiration.

I can never get enough of Rosie making that idiot fall to pieces. Can we Star Jones her and get someone on there who makes sense and who's only qualification isn't being a reality show has-been? Thanks Babs.

arirang: "Example: who has a better rack, Obama or Clinton."

Definitely Bill.

I saw the same argument between Flashdance and her girlfriend on "The L Word" last year. Then there was either some folk-rock or a sex scene; I can't remember which.

Woot. I haven't been this turned on by a chick fight since I saw Pam Grier in "Black Mama, White Mama" on DVD.

@transomist: I agree. But I've never found myself completing her sentences for her. With EH, I could fall asleep for ten minutes and pick up her screed right where she is.

More and more frequently I find myself looking at media personalities and saying, "who the fuck is that?"

So I just googled this Hesselbeck person. She's a third runner-up on Survivor and a BC grad? Her husband is a football player. That's it.

If I was Rosie O'Donnell I would eat her, on camera with ketchup.

EH embodies everything I hate about Christians. What a smug, shrill, cowardly bitch.

@backslider: I think that's supposed to be her appeal: semi-anonymous Everywoman, a perky bottle-blonde Republican representing flyoverland.
You must be insane to watch daytime television. If not, you soon will be.

my money's on the big fat lesbian.

In another clip I saw today, EH claims she likes to watch "Hannity and Colmes" on Fox News because they offer "debate".

She is a coward and a moron.

Omigod, you guys? Like, Elisabeth is pretty. Isn't that enough!?! Like, come on! I wish that fat man would stop being so mean to her.

@backslider: Hey, if anyone knows about politics, it's the anorexic Christian girl who once helped build a hut out of sand.

@Sanson: I still don't get it. Why would anyone want to watch cretinous hags bicker about politics. I'd much rather watch rats battle over a french fry dropped on a subway platform.

I so, so hope that Rosie decks that little nitwit before she leaves.

Hasselbeck is the prime example of everything that is wrong with TV: Whatever ABC exec decided to take this shrill, stupid nobody, whose only credential is eating bugs on a reality show, and give her a daily, national forum for discussing current events, should be shot.

And Hasselbeck's arrogance and sense of entitlement make her even more intolerable than her ignorance. Someone needs to slap her hard.

I'm not down with this new and crankier Elisabeth... I've never liked her for obvious reasons but back in the day, the reality tv nobody would cry at the end of every discussion...

Bring back Lisa Ling!!!

@piequest:
Did you watch the segment just now? Are you blind?

Anyway, sources say there was some hot make-up canoodling afterward in Behar's dressing room.

Ain't it the truth,

Throw them both off a bridge.

Is it wrong of me to want Rosie to like rape her on tv? She makes Lisa Ling look like a nobel scholar.

@backslider: I know, right! I mean, unless there's going to be jello wrestling and pillow fighting. And then some accidental kissing.

@punkybrewster: I just threw up a little...no, a lot. I say "No thanks" to that mental image of Rosie and EH in any sort of way like that.

Ok, so I work during the day, and have never seen The View (thank god)...do people really watch this crap for the content, or just watch it Nascar style, waiting for the wrecks?

Ah, see, because Rosie is a lesbian, she misses the whole reason behind Hissybeck's sense of entitlement. The Everywoman is supposed to WANT the Pretty Girl to like her so that Everywoman's stock with the dudes goes up.

If you hang with the Pretty Girl who is also conservative, then the guys like you more.

At least that's what I learned at Fordham.

I'd be slightly impressed with the big fat lesbian if she'd take on an equally strong, loudmouth like Ann Coulter or Laura Ingraham - someone she can't so easily talk over and dominate.

@GothamTomato:

I so, so hope that Rosie decks that little nitwit before she leaves.

Does the fact that the little nitwit is pregnant change your mind about this wish?

I'm suspicious of the claim that they're friends off screen. Friends with a Republican? That's about as crazy as loving Tom Cruise.

@The One:

The fact that the little nitwit is preggers makes me want the fat lesbian to slap her twice

@The One: I didn't hear Rosie talking over that blond woman in this clip; maybe there are others, I wouldn't know. But really, whether it's this one, Ann Coulter, 46, or Laura Ingraham, blond female conservative pundrixes seem to have one thing in common: a total lack of intellectual honesty.

I'll be glad when their viewpoints are relegated to the crazy bin they belong in.

Ugh. Rosie. Die already. For someone so all up in her own business we have to hear about her child's observations on her un-Brazilianified muff, she fails to realize other people may just have different opinions. Sure, "different" in this case means "not like really well articulate", but still, being loud and a lesbian doesn't mean you know what you're talking about either. But I am on pins and needles waiting for the press release proclaiming they're besties!

Crazy bin? Isn't that where we find Rosie and her "9/11 was an inside job" conspiracy theories?

Finally Liz's rack is bigger than Ro's. Oh. Sorry. Was there something of substance in that clip to comment on?

They're equally obnoxious, just for different reasons. Clearly, the only way to resolve this is to bring Julia Allison in to mediate. Surely they can all agree on the virtues of putting out in exchange for shoes.

Rosie has never said that 9/11 was an inside job. What she has said repeatedly is that WTC Building 7 fell in ways that seem unexplained.

I hope Rosie would just sit back and let Joy eat Hassleprick for lunch. And Joy will be there after Rosie leaves. Bolstering Joy is not a bad idea.

@Chandler In Hollywood:

What was "unexplained"? There was a large fuel tank or fuel tanks inside the building. They caught fire, severely weakening the steel superstructure from the inside. That, plus the gashes in the external structure of the building, courtesy of falling debris from the collapsed Twin Towers, which further compromised 7WTC and led to its collapse. Every other explanation is an insane, mind-f*ckingly stupid conspiracy theory, advanced by nutjobs and morons like Rosie O-f*cking-Donnell, who truly have no idea what the f___ they are talking about.

So, where was I? Oh yes - bring back Studio 60!

@In Other News...: Rube Goldberg, I think we have a winner.

Hey I am Christian and wouldn't share the same pew with EH. She watches Fox Noise and thinks the Bachelor is quality entertainment. The View achieved a new low with the split screen today. What next, mud wrestling? My money is on Rosie, for more reasons than one!

@Sayser:
oh please. she is a shrill, dimwitted twat.

"The source of the blowup? A discussion last week in which Hasselbeck and O'Donnell debated the meaning of the word "terrorist." O'Donnell asked, '655,000 Iraqi civilians are dead. Who are the terrorists?'"

Please, Rosie. Now you're pissed off that Hasselbeck didn't defend your position on calling the troops terrorists? Hasselbeck may be annoying, but let's call a spade a spade. Those were YOUR words.

@The One:

If Rosie bitchslaps her in the face the baby will be fine and EH will learn her lesson.

Does pregnancy precludes the beating she so richly deserves?

Highly debatable, I'd say.

@boozehound: I can't find where Rosie called the troops terrorists.

It's a pretty stinging indictment of the administration that sent them to Iraq, and ordered the air strikes and bombings that indiscriminately killed civilians, and if your definition of terror doesn't include waiting for a bomb to drop on your house, then I'd argue that you haven't experienced terror.

No, it seems to me that what Rosie was pointing out was the right's tendency to put any criticism of Bush and Cheney onto our soldiers. And it's about time someone called them on it.

You know what I call our soldiers? Victims.

@sloppy_seconds: Wait...So soldiers are like people who work for Conde Nast?

And while I don't want to go debatey because it's so boring and I enjoy fence-sitting as it makes me feel thin, based on Rosie's way of "thinking" then the left's tendency is to go along until things get messy then pull a Paris "Huh? Wha? Me?" Hilton.

@The One:
Coulter & Ingraham are too cowardly to show up on The View!
They stick to the Fascist News Channel & let Hannity & O'Reilly go muff diving on them with a loofah follow-up!
