Comedienne Rosie O'Donnell gave another classy performance Friday evening when she used numerous vulgarities on NBC's "Late Night" just before she attacked Fox News's Glenn Beck.
Almost worse, host Jimmy Fallon didn't seem at all disturbed by O'Donnell's behavior.
Quite the contrary, whether she was cursing like a rapper or demeaning one of the nation's leading cable news personalities, Fallon cheered her on.
Ironically, O'Donnell's attack on Beck ended with her saying, "I don't understand why people enjoy that carnival barker...He's a scary man" (videos embedded below the fold with partial transcript):
JIMMY FALLON, HOST: And the show's just kind of you talking about anything. It's not --
ROSIE O'DONNELL: Anything.
FALLON: It is not a political show. It's not...
O'DONNELL: No.
FALLON: It's just you talking to me going -- it's you and a couple of friends.
O'DONNELL: Yeah, it's not ever going to be me and Glenn Beck.
[ Laughter ]
FALLON: It won't be.
O'DONNELL: No.
FALLON: Crying hysterically. No.
O'DONNELL: No. [ Crying sounds ] "Obama is ruining everything. I want drugs. Be afraid, America, we're in trouble."
[ light laughter ]
FALLON: You don't want to hear that everyday now.
O'DONNELL: I don't understand why people enjoy that carnival barker. I don't get it.
[ Laughter ] He's a scary man to me.
Bear in mind this was just moments after the following disgraceful, vulgarity-laden performance:
Now THAT'S a scary woman!

They know they can't get away with the lies outright, so they shroud the usual "rightwing extremist" slander in other terms.
Just another form of propaganda from the totalitarian left.

Where is Child Protective Services now that her "spouse" has moved out and there is no responsible adult at home with her kids???

Speaking of barkers
November 7, 2009 - 13:49 ET by Patrick MichaelRosie O'Donnell came so close to setting the record for fastest canceled TV show as they actually tried to cancel her show 'during' her first (and only) performance. Rosie has a face for radio, to bad her show is so God awful that even her relatives and 'wife' can't stand to listen. Do you think that maybe, just maybe Rosie is a tad jealous of Glen Beck's ratings???

Why Pay Attention To This Person?
November 7, 2009 - 14:13 ET by DaMamaWhen I saw commercials for O'Donnel's TV show, it made me gag. The only time O'Donnel came anywhere close to showing talent was in the movie "Sleepless In Seattle". She is the most bitter, angry, mean-spirited person and why Jimmy Fallon would have her on his show is beyond all reason. I always liked Fallon, but since he wouldn't even call O'Donnel on the carpet for her foul mouth, I won't watch the show again.

Where'd they dig HER up?
November 7, 2009 - 14:52 ET by SlyrrI'm surprised Rosie has the guts to show her face in public again after her 'show' crashed and burned after just one episode. I guess liberal TV shows stuffed with liberal hosts and liberal audience members are the only places that the likes of ODonnel and Griffen can even get face time anymore. Lord knows no one likes their shows, such as they are.
Why did anyone give ODonnel the green light for ANOTHER show after her utter disaster last year? She's not entertaining, she's not clever, she's not smart, she's not funny - no one likes her anymore. She blew it by coming out and being the total jerkface slob that she is, instead of hiding it like she used to. That was the only successful 'acting' she ever did when her afternoon show was running, fooling people into thinking she was a decent human being. But that's over and done now - she's been far too loud, obnoxious and open about her crazed ideologies.
I predict Kathy's album will also fail, unless Obama orders ACORN to go to the stores, buy all the copies and then store them, forgotten and unused, in a warehouse like they do with all their 'bestseller' books.... I mean, who wants to buy an album that insults a beloved holiday? And who wants to listen to the spiteful toad ODonnel anymore? If she were popular, she'd still have a successful show.
Ratings in the toilet Rosie?
November 7, 2009 - 15:54 ET by Dan DiegoShe's just like all the other has been "entertainers" that pop up out of obscurity spewing their garbage and attacking conservatives to get noticed by the leftist Hollywood power brokers.

November 7, 2009 - 18:25 ET by Radical1979I'd say Lou the sound board guy is in for a rough ride. My husband is a boss and he doesn't find it necessary to threaten, belittle, and/or curse at people.
And as usual, the left makes fun of Beck, but doesn't address the issues he talks about. I'm wondering how funny people will find all of this when the things he talks about come to pass, like high inflation.
Go Glenn
November 7, 2009 - 22:29 ET by SpikerI love that he gets these people so riled up. He should bring in Sarah Palin as cohost and really make their heads explode.
Sarah Palin on Glenn Beck
November 8, 2009 - 07:47 ET by sarge329Sarah Palin on the Glenn Beck show? My God! We don't get the Fox network ( thankfully we don't receive PMSNBC, so we're not punished in that respect ) , but I'd find a way to record that show! Beck does occasionally get a little shrill on the radio, but sometimes you have to get everyone's attention. So O' Donnell doesn't like Beck. OK, Rosie. Don't watch it, don't listen to it. If you think it's garbage, provide the facts to make your point. If you can't do that, go home and try to repair what's left of your life. Beck, at least, doesn't take himself too seriously. On more than one occasion, he has referred to himself as a rodeo clown ( now called bullfighter by the PRCA and the PBR tour ) . I'm not sure that I'd want to see THAT head explode. You'd have to call in a HAZMAT crew and then OSHA and the EPA would get involved. What a mess.

November 8, 2009 - 11:48 ET by MikeB" Don't watch it, don't listen to it."
She probably doesn't watch or listen to Glenn Beck. It wouldn't surprise me she gets her opinions from DailyKos or Huffnpuff. With Rosie's track record, if someone doesn't tell her what to think, she doesn't.

Rosie O’Donnell "When she was 18, she dropped out of college and went on to do shows like "Gimme a Break!"" … "Dropped out of Boston University after 1 year. Dropped out of Dickinson College, Carlisle,PA." (imdb.com)
It would be interesting to know her major in college and her grades. Obviously, she would have been sitting with Al "mankind is causing global warming" Gore in the bottom ranks of science class. "For the first time in history, fire melted steel?" Really, Rosie? And we are supposed to trust your opinion on anything at all after that little gem?
