Rosie O Song

sung to the tune of the Scoobie Doo Song

"Rosie Rosie Ooo,
where are you?
we miss your rants on TV now,

all the other gals,
are just cows,
you wore the pants for sure gal,

when it is all said and done you had your fun, you rocked, and had your way,
hey hey, hey,

now you are doing something new and they can screw, your through eating their hay,
hey, hey, hey,

Rosie Rosie Ooo,
we like you,
in spite that you are Rosie,

no one else we know,
can do a show,
the way that you do what you do!"

The Rosie View Song
sung to the tune of'The Flintstones Song'

Rosie, she's our Rosie,
She spouts and spurts to our unending glee,
from her home of The View, She skews the news for all to see,
Someday, will our Rosie win the fight,
Go straight, join the Republicians and the Right,
Oh no, we don't think so,
She'll have a gabba gabba do time, more gabba do time,
she'll have a gay old time!"

That role was done originally by Pattsy Kelly, who also happened to be an overweight, alcoholic, Lez

IM still waiting for Nancy Grace, and Gloria Allredd to get those kids away from Rosie

Hey Perez

If City Center is doing revivals
Maybe you can get them to do

LITTLR MARY SUNSHINE,

you sure would be sweet in the roll,
and you hair is already the right color

This is one of the shows my siblings and I saw with our parents. Patsy Kelly was amusing, so hopefully Rosie will do that part justice. I wonder who's slated for the roles once played by Van, Guilford, Keeler and the others. We'll see."Tea For Two" is a cute song. Times have changed a bit since the 1920's.

I hate her she needs to disappear dumb bitch
Maria says – reply to this

She will be great. Rosie is talented, intelligent, funny and caring, all you mean-spirited jealous folks should get over the fact that a large, gay woman is so successful.

Hey! You didn't italicize Encores!
Nicole says – reply to this

52

I love her! Good for her. I think it is sad how hateful people are. I don't agree with all of her opinions, but I don't agree with a lot of people, and it doesn't mean I can't like them! She is a good person and has done so much to help children!
Terese says – reply to this

53

I wish she would just get her estrogen checked! Maybe she wouldn't be so manly. I do love her anyway though…. RON PAUL 2008!

54

When there are SO many talented people looking desperately for a break on Broadway, we have to get UNTALENTED celebrities because they sell tickets! Broadway as we knew it, is DEAD thanks to unscrupulous, money-hungry producers. Amen.
GWalker says – reply to this

55

I FUCKING HATE LEZBOS THAT ARE ONLY GAY BECAUSE THEY ARE TOO FAT AND LAZY TO GET ANY DECENT MEN. I THINK ALL THE HOT LEZBOS SHOULD BOYCOTT ROSIE AS SHE ONLY CAME OUT BECAUSE SHE COULD FIND A LOT MORE ATTRACTIVE CHICKS TO EAT HER FAT SMELLY BOX THAT NO DUDE WOULD TOUCH WITH A TEN FOOT POLE. FUCK THAT FAT BITCH FOR STEALING DECENT LESBIANS FROM THE WOMEN WHO ARE ACTUALLY BORN LESBIANS.

Who cares about Rosie?
Why on EARTH are they reviving No No, Nanette?!
What a whoreanus show!
Perez's Puta says – reply to this

59

OMG! I am so tired of Rosie and her diva-like behavior, excoriating anyone who doesn't agree with her. A former fan who waited HOURS on line for tickets to her show, I was turned against Rosie by virtue of her own behavior. She drives everyone away - even her own fans - and then expects loyalty when she graces us with an appearance on Broadway. Well, for me it won't work this time. I am so OVER Rosie O.

She is nothing but a trailer trash pig. She needs to go away.

Considering all the nice things she has said about Perez, you would think that the people here wouldn't be sucha bunch-a-cuntz.

CAN WE SEND HER TO IRAQ AND LEAVE HER WITH AL-QUEDA?? PLEASE SHE NEEDS TO GO
Dave says – reply to this

66

Who cares? She makes me tired.
Pearl says – reply to this

67

Dear Madge Mink,

I hope Gloria Allred and Nancy Grace come after YOU for spreading lies!!! Rosie DID NOT SAY she took baths with her kids. Go check the quote. She made a reference to bathing with them when they were babies, which is something that lots of parents do–even the Rabid Right-Wing Repuglicans. I have known many to do that. But your lie has made it sound like she currently bathes with all of the kids, right now. Her kids are way too old for that, and you know it.

Go back to the Faux Noise network and Drudge, Rush, etc., and stop spreading filth on this site. I am sick of the liars who spread dirt about Rosie. Why don't you just say you don't like her politics and leave it at that? Are you so insecure in your political beliefs that they can't stand for themselves without you adding lies about Rosie's personal life?

WAY TO GO ROSIE!

How can anyone not like her?

She'll be great, and the staff/cast/crew will probably have a ball working with her.

THE Bitch says – reply to this

78

Rosie is talented, funny and at least she cares about the world we live in. Agree or Disagree, she makes us discuss things we should be thinking about. I love her and if you're a hater…well that says a lot about your IQ.

There is a a good side to Hollywood. Rosie is on it. Peace out.

ro doesn't force anything on anyone
she wasnts everyone in the US to open their eyes
and start questioning why on earth we're still at war.

Do the yankees want to win so much vs the red sox? they can't do it as a team so they bring this sucker out (I'm talking ’bout the play not rosie). the curse of johnny damon doesn't have the same ring.
