Rosie O'Donnell Compares Christians to Muslims

When "The View" announced that Rosie O'Donnell would be the new co-host for the show, I had to chuckle. What type of person would watch Rosie O'Donnell host any type of talk show? Well, she recently helped me understand and disclosed the depth of her intellect to viewers on "The View" as Rosie compared radical Christians to the Muslims who flew the planes into the World Trade Center. Even her co-hosts disagreed with her. See the whole article and a video clip at

To date, ABC has refrained to call for any apology or to issue any reprimand of O'Donnell. Jimmy the Greek was fired by CBS for his controversial comments about black athletes and CBS was respected for it. Will the leadership of ABC have the courage to show the same resolve or are they actually in support of anti-Christian bigotry?

I find it interesting that the Pope recently had the courage to apologize for his comment which offended Muslims. Would the Pope do more to appease radical Muslims than ABC will do to appease those in the Christian community who were offended by O'Donnell's comments? Interesting... the Pope, a leader of the Christian movement which Rosie criticized as being hatemongers, had the courage to apologize. Will Rosie?

I feel that the comments by Rosie O'Donnell deserve a public apology and public reprimand. Please join me in expressing your concerns to:
