Really! I was neutral about Rosie returning, but if it drives Elisabeth THAT bananas then I say bring her on!

Elisabeth is pissed she didn't get the call first. Her comments about Rosie are dripping with resentment. Yeah, she probably likes Fox News, but it's a downgrade from network TV. If they are bringing back a past hosts I'm sure she thinks she deserves a 2nd shot more than Rosie.

I don't know...it's a downgrade to rational people, but I'm pretty sure Elisabeth equates her FOX contract with Jesus Christ Himself handing her the keys of the kingdom.

I don't know...it's a downgrade to rational people, but I'm pretty sure Elisabeth equates her FOX contract with Jesus Christ Himself handing her the keys of the kingdom. Elisabet was let go from ABC. She didn't leave the show willingly to go to Fox. They didn't renew her contract. At ABC she was a special snowflake, a crusader for conservative values among the liberal mainstream media. At FOX she's one blonde conservative harpy among a dozen over there. Was Rosie fired the first time at the View? I thought She left after her blow up with EH and never came back. Now they are asking her back, to save this sinking ship of a shoe. I am not a huge Rosie fan, but I'm so happy she ruined EH's vacation! Go Rosie!

Yeah, to my memory, Rosie wasn't fired or even 'let go' at contract renewal time. She quit because she couldn't stand being in the same space as Bitsy. Hard to blame her on that front. I mean, the rest of us can just change the channel- but she had to see that woman every day and actually interact with her.
That said, I don't really watch the View so I don't care all that much. But I don't know if Rosie was ever that much of an asset (other than refusing to put up with Bitsy and therefore making great TV when they went at each other). I remember watching one time and Suze Orman was on to give tips on how to invest or at least get by when the market was crashing and horrible. And through the whole interview Rosie would NOT shut up and let Suze talk. She kept repeating that she didn't care about her finances because Kelly her then wife took care of all that. Which, one, way to make it all about YOU Rosie. And two, erm... since Kelly was taking care of the finances, maybe she would have liked to have heard what Ms. Orman had to say about it... if Rosie would have ever shut up long enough to let Ms. Orman talk. I know *I* wanted to hear about it- and never did because then the segment was over. Ironically, Rosie has since divorced Ms. Kelly and unless her new wife is really good at taking care of the finances- I'll bet she wishes she'd listened to what Suze had to say. That was just one episode and I was pulling my hair out over Rosie. If she was like that often, it would be unbearable.
So, I'm not so sold on Rosie's View Hosting abilities.
I am however deeply pleased at her Hasselbeck Vacation Ruining abilities!! :-)!!

I don't think the show's been entertaining/relevant since her first hosting stint, so I think it's probably their best option as far as bringing any former hosts back. Meredith was always my favorite host and kinda seemed like the glue that held the panel together in her time, but she's too good for this shit at this point.

I am surprised by Elisabeth's animosity because I thought she and Rosie came to an understanding after Rosie left the show. Rosie mentioned on Howard Stern and in the press that she and Elisabeth, although not friends, had communicated on friendlier terms after their huge fight and after Rosie left the show.

I like Joy's response about how everything at Fox is fictional anyway. What dles the dumbass mean anyway with the whole spitting in the military's face? Is it the same line republicans had when the Iraq war started? Such idiots.
