The debate over Rosie O'Donnell continues.
While the liberal lesbian sits at home and fans either rally to her defense or enemies bid her good riddance, one group of passionate followers are calling for the firing of Rosie's former co-host, Elisabeth Hasselbeck.
An online petition that currently has over 14,000 signatures on it is urging The View to let the show's lone conservative voice go. People seem more fired up over this incident than they are over the elimination of Melinda Doolittle on American Idol.
And that's fine. America allows people to express their views in any non-violent ways they see fit. But doesn't that include Hasselbeck? The following excerpt from the petition's website makes it seem like the originators simply want Elisabeth fired because they don't agree with her:
While the purpose of The View is for different views to be expressed, each co-host should be able to express their views without being attacked by a closed-minded co-host who blindly refuses to listen to facts and uses the show to angrily spout propaganda.
So, based on this text, Hasselbeck cannot have an opinion because she doesn't listen to facts? Look, The Hollywood Gossip doesn't buy most of what Elisabeth is saying, but we'll blog to our deaths her right to say it at least. That's what makes America the best country in the world!
Now go exercise your right to laugh at photos of Lindsay Lohan passed out drunk.

no...hasselbarf needs to go!
she doesnt offer views, she insists on shoving them down others throats in her biased, hysterical way that is nothing but an attack on anyone who doesnt agree with her. She is confrontational, antagonistic, closeminded, ignorant and bigoted. Enough of her kind...no free pulpit to that self-proclaimed Bushie.

How annoying! She thinks she's little Miss Perfect and everyone else is subject to her superior opinions.
Surprise: she's wrong and needs to face up to it.
Bush is a disaster and Iraq is a disaster! Fact.
If Elisabeth had ever faced real life, instead of her "perfect world" cocoon, maybe she could come out of her Stepford wives-like denial... At first I thought she was sweet. Now I think she's an overpaid, under-qualified moron. Get off the stage, Elisabeth! You're embarassing~!
And since when are "Pro-Life" "Christians" so in favor of war, mass murder, corruption, and indiscriminate destruction ??
Elisabeth--wake up! Bush duped you and many others. He's the Anti-Christ.

She is spewing poison. She is hurting America. It's one thing if she wants to be ignorant about world issues herself. It is another if she is spreading that ignorance! Fire Elisabeth now!

Look, morons. The show is called "The View." It's a damn talk show. Elisabeth Hasselbeck is a good host and can say whatever she wants, just like you can criticize the war... Convoluted as her opinions might be, it's unfair that she take all this crap for expressing them. Plus, there is just something about a hot, blonde, neo-conservative lunatic that turns on this liberal. Suffice it to say, I would knock (combat) boots with that piece all night! WOO!

Oh gee I thought I was the only one who really can't stand Elizabeth's staunch views. Talk about being brain washed. She is so annoying with her political crap and trying to be young by know what the kids are doing theses days that she doesn't even realize how lame she really is. She doesn't care about the music scene other than what's on the top 40 list.
Every performer that comes on her show is apparently her "favourite" or she "loves" that song. What a f-n poser. I hate when people pretend that they know so much about the music scene and the new shows on tv when it is so apparent they have no clue.
The other day she really made herself look stupid when Larry David was on. Elizabeth said she didn't want to reveal to much of an episode of Curb your Entheusisam (sp) before it aired and she described an old episode and Larry David told her so. I laughed my buttski off. What a loser. This happens to her a lot because all she knows is politics and her daughter Grace. Bla bla bal. Elizabeth you are BORING BORING BORING becasue you spew the same sh*t all of the time. YAWN! She only ever sees things black and white and right or wrong. She is rigid and probably frigid. I'm suprised she got knocked up again.
I wish she would just have her baby and just stay home and raise her kids. If she is wonderfully perfect wouldn't it be nice if she just spared us her perfectness and leave TV altogether. Please get rid of her.
If the producers read this. Get rid of Hasselbeck and replace her with Sherry Shepard. I love love love Sherry. She is cute, fresh and funny!

I saw Elizabeth screech at (interview( Patti Sciafflo today. She asked about marriage and when Patti said she had her kids before marriage Elizabeth replied "oh saucy". Gag me now. She is moronic. Get her off the air.

I don't think Elisabeth is moronic just because she has morals, if more people had the values that she has, maybe the world wouldn't be in such a mess

Who cares what she says. She is freakin hot. Even prego. Obviously she is stirring up a lot of controversy from a lot of people. That is even more of a reason to keep her around. Who wants to see a bunch of blimps and lesbos argue with each other. Elisabeth makes the show. By the way did any men post comments about hating her or was it only jealous women. Everyone has a right to think and say what they want. The right to their "view".

Hasselbeck is from a reality TV show, freaking Survivor... I'm sorry to say this but she acts like she's Oprah for crying out loud! She is entitled to her opinion, I don't dislike her for that... Yet she dismisses everyone elses opinion believing hers is superior. Fire her already please
