"I'm curious as to why some of you feel the need to jump down others throats when they say they do not like Rosie."
Exactly. If this topic was "O'Donnell Announces She Will Depart 'The View' Early-- We, the Fans Support Her" or some such nonesense, I wouldn't have bothered putting in my two cents. But frankly, this is an open discussion. People are allowed to have different opinions, whether you like them or not. I'm not trying to make anyone not like Rosie, I was discussing why I don't.
And whomever made the comment about Roger Bart (I don't care enough to go back and find out who it was, no disrespect to the poster intended), I never claimed my taste in actors was perfect. But at least Roger is still working, and he doesn't have to scream in other people's faces to do so.
I'm getting a little bored with this thread, so I'm just going to lay it out as I see it. I don't care much for Rosie O'Donnell. I think she's loud and too brash. Sometimes that can be a good thing, but in her case, she can't have a conversation with someone without getting completely overbearing and obnoxious. She makes some fine points every once in a while, but it's her execution of those fine points that makes her hard to like, IMO. If you're going to debate, that requires letting someone else speak once in a while without screaming over them. My dislike for her has nothing to do with her being overweight and it certainly has nothing to do with her being homosexual. I don't ever want it to come down to that. I don't discriminate because of size or sexual orientation. I just can't stand her personality. Plain and simple.
Okay, I'm bored of this. I'll check back tomorrow to watch the Rosie fans jump all over this one. Oy.
We were fated to be mated. We're Bialystock & Bloom!
