The View Bids Adieu

So Rosie isn't going to stay for the last couple of weeks of her contract. Her and Elizabeth had a big fight and Rosie said screw it, I'm outta here NOW.

I am a stay-at-home mom, and I watch The View almost every day. I was delighted when Rosie shook things up and brought us political discussion from an all-women panel. I fear that is gone for good now, and it saddens me. I was appalled when John Gibson of Fox News said that the audience of The View was too weak minded to understand they were being manipulated by Rosie’s rants. I am not weak-minded. I didn’t agree with everything she said, and if I questioned her opinions (which we are all entitled to) I looked up information to verify her claims. What seems to be lost in the heat of debate, is not just what she said, but that she was saying it. She brought political debate into the living room in a way most politicians have been afraid to. Whether people agreed or not, the issues she brought up became topics of discussion, and she should be hailed for that. I will miss her.

Thank you for stopping by!
