Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar’s hilarious set walk-off (in protest of guest Bill O’Reilly’s conclusion Muslims are to blame for 9/11) didn’t escape ex-seatmate Rosie O’Donnell, who has a whole radio show (and soon an Oprah talk program!) to weigh in on pop culture happenings. Which she did like so: It’s basically The View‘s fault for booking the jerk. Like GOProud enlisting Ann Coulter to insult them, asking O’Reilly to your show is an invitation for rhetoric.
What started it all:
Bill P
Can’t stand O’Reilly but what is far worse – to old hags inviting an explosive guest on their show for ratings, then staging a walkout. Clearly publicity since there is new competing show. View lost its 15 minutes of relevance years ago.

They are supposed to be professionals. All they did was do the practically impossible…they made Bill O’Reilly look reasonable and cool headed. Ugh.

Joy stated this moring on the broadcast that she basically doesnt want him or ever has wanted him on the show but has no say in bookings… Bill O’rielly is a race baiter and a hate mongerer and sickens me to no end…

Be careful Rosie, Oprah is watching yooooooooouuu.

Did Joy use her walker?

Now everyone is milking this hype and the issue of Oreillys hate is second fiddle.

lol i could have taken whoopi a lot more seriously right there if her shoes didn’t start flashing as she walked away.
