Rosie O'Donnell Goes Off The Wall

It has been previously reported on several media outlets about Rosie O'Donnells' recent rantings. Now,she apparently opens the show "The View" with a commentary each morning,that's no big deal even Regis and Kelly do that. However, in recent weeks her rants have gotten more and more extreme. It reached what very well could be a breaking point Thursday morning.

She had previously this week stated that the Iranian capture of 15 British soldiers in the Gulf was staged, a fake operation. Rosie made a clear reference to the Gulf Of Tonkin incident,which many believe to be a phony attack staged to excuse an escalation of the Vietnam War.

Just when you thought that would be the height of her extreme rants,she spoke again.

Rosie,today went off on a tangent about 9/11 attacks:

HASSELBECK: Do you believe that the government had anything to do with the attack of 9/11? Do you believe in a conspiracy in terms of the attack of 9/11?

O’DONNELL: No. But I do believe the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics for the World Trade Center Tower Seven, building seven, which collapsed in on itself, it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved, World Trade Center Seven. World Trade Center one and Two got hit by plains. Seven, miraculously, for the first time in history, steel was melted by fire. It is physically impossible.

HASSELBECK: And who do you think is responsible for that?

O’DONNELL: I have no idea. But to say that we don't know it was imploded, that there was implosion in the demolition, is beyond ignorant. Look at the film. Get a physics expert here from Yale, from Harvard. Pick the school. It defies reason.

(that is from the transcript of The View)

So,Ms. O'Donnell is buying into the conspiracy theories about the September 11th attacks now? One has to wonder how Barbara Walters feels about her show being used as a vehicle to spout extremist propaganda.

It was noted on another media program that The View's ratings have tumbled since start of 2007. If that trend is indeed true,then the ratings and loss of revenue will cause Barbara Walters and/or ABC to act.

I see this as just another sign that the extremists are forcing their views into the mainstream.
But,maybe I'm just being paranoid...unlikely.
