Rosie O'Donnell's comments stir discussion

Abstract:
A discussion regarding a comment seen by many as being racist, made by talk show host Rosie O'Donnell, was hosted by the Asian Pacific American Student Union and the Asian and Pacific Cultural Center on Monday evening.

The issue centers around a brief impression which O'Donnell made on ABC's "The View," making a reference to Danny DeVito's earlier show appearance in which he was allegedly intoxicated....

As for Rosie's latest comments about Khalid Sheikh Mohammed (sp?), she's right. If you torture someone long enough they'll "confess" to having planned Napolean's invasion of Russia. This is soon before this individual is to have not an open trial but a closed military tribunal. Funny how this supposed "confession" news is based upon not something videotaped and shown on the "news" but a written transcript from the DoD. The same DoD that claimed Pat Tillman was cut down while charging up a hill in the teeth of Taliban machine-gun fire when he was behind a boulder and shot by friendly fire from trigger-happy Army Rangers. The same DoD that every time a helicopter gets shot down in Iraq or Afghanistan they always say it made an "emergency landing" after suffering "mechanical problems". (The same DoD that still claims Agent Orange and depleted uranium aren't harmful). Anyone who takes them at their word has rocks in their head.

Realist, you're dodging the issue here and taking aim at something that you obviously haven't looked very much into. You're making sweeping generalizations about something you have no grasp on.

Go read from a wide range of sources and get the whole stoy before you foam at the mouth.

FOR THE FOOLISH REALIST:

ARE YOU ANTI-AMERICAN OR ANTI-GOD? OR BOTH?

READ YOUR BIBLE & BE CAUTIOUS REGARDING YOUR VENOM & YOUR WORDS.

FOR ROSIE:

READ YOUR BIBLE & LIVE BY IT. YOU ARE A ROLE MODEL. GOD HAS SELECTED YOU TO DO GOOD WITH YOUR TALENTS. YOU CANNOT DO GREAT DEEDS WITH ONE HAND & HAVE A FOUL MOUTH LIVING AS A LESBIAN WITH THE OTHER.

DO MANY "GOOD" DEEDS BALANCE OUT A FEW "BAD" SINS?

READ YOUR BIBLE & FIND OUT!

PROVERBS: CHAPTER 27

LUKE: CHAPTER 12

JOHN: CHAPTER 14

THE BOOK OF JOB: CHAPTER 7

DOES GOD APPROVE OF ONE DOING GREAT CHARITIES WITH ONE HAND AND HAVING A FOUL MOUTH & BEING A LESBIAN WITH THE OTHER HAND?
