Is the Rosie O’Donnell story really over? The drama, yes but the lesson, no.

Published by Karl under OTA, Rosie

After the infamous fight with Elisabeth Hasselbeck a few days ago, rumour circulated that she trashed her dressing room and bailed.  Taking a day off for her partner’s birthday was prearranged, but now the report is she won’t be back.

On the heels of that was another report that her chief writer was escorted from the studio, for defacing Elisabeth’s pictures in the hall.

Both of these events, though by separate individuals, illustrates the same attitude which has seemed to permeate O’Donnell’s character:  Childishness.

Her mockery and resulting feud with Trump, her condescending attitude toward Elisabeth, her blind belief in ridiculous theories (and refusal to recant in the face of solidly rebutting evidence), her racists remarks and resulting denial and her piteous gay baiting tactics to avoid debate, all speak to the behavior of a child.

Her comments about the troops are a classic example.  Her denials to the contrary, she actually did call the troops terrorists.  Oh she didn’t say it directly, she merely suggested it as a faux hypothetical question with only one possible answer.  The effective result is the same, it is a difference that makes no difference.
