Unhinged Liberal of the Week: Rosie O'Donnell

On an episode of "The View" this week the ignorant pig once again showed her true colors by displaying sympathy for Khalid Sheik Mohammed, an admitted murderer and the alleged mastermind behind the death of over 3,000 people on September, 11, 2001.

On the March 15 edition of "The View," Rosie O’Donnell brought up the news of Khalid Sheik Mohammed’s many confessions. Rosie, who believes radical Christianity is just as dangerous as radical Islam, was more outraged on unproven allegations of torture than the horrific atrocities Mohammed confessed to. On her latest rant she also demonstrated her lack of knowledge on the extensive al Qaeda network.

O’DONNELL: I think the man has been in custody of the American government, in secret CIA torture prisons in Guantanamo Bay, where torture is accepted and allowed, and he finally is the guy who admits to doing everything. They finally found the guy. It's not that guy bin Laden. It's this guy they've had since ‘93. And look, this is the picture they released of him. Doesn’t, he look healthy?

Token non-liberal Elisabeth Hasselbeck was unusually assertive through the course of the discussion, and even exposed how shallow Rosie’s opinions are. Just as Rosie did not answer whether or not she wanted the United States to win in Iraq, she did not answer what she would do with the detained terrorists.

HASSELBECK: What do think should happen? What do you think should happen?

O’DONNELL: We should uphold the standards of the Geneva Convention and lead the free world in democracy.

[Applause]

HASSELBECK: I believe that. But what, specifically, if there was someone, say, who had been plotting an attack, how do you think they should be interrogated? What methods do you think would be fair?

O’DONNELL: I don't think the United States should ever, ever, ever torture other people.

Rosie, who claimed terrorists are mothers and fathers, was concerned about robbing the "humanity" of terrorists.

O’DONNELL: Because you don't think terrorists, you don’t think terrorists- you think that robs them of their humanity. That name "terrorist" makes them not human any more? They don’t-

This isn't about O'Donnell so much as it's about Barbara Walters who brought O'Donnell to her show in a desperate bid for ratings. And it worked as O'Donnell has upped "The View" ratings, but at the expense of Walters integrity which becomes more null and void each day O'Donnell remains on the show. Then too, ABC continues to show that it has no problem approving this blatant exercise in liberal bias in that they wouldn't dare let a real conservative on "The View" to challenge Rosie's asinine rants because then her sheer stupidity would be exposed for all the world to see. Which, of course, would leave ABC and Walters with nothing but egg on their face.
