I have new found respect for Rosie O'donnel.

I was surprised that this was called a "meltdown" on the YouTube page. Now, Rosie isn't great by any means, or an authority. But this was watched by millions of middle class housewives that might not have thought about the issues raised by Rosie in this segment. And that's pretty awesome.

Fuck yeah!

Her obsession with 9/11 Troof stuff, repackaged as "All I'm saying is..." (which I've heard from her before), is a little disappointing. But she still kicks ass.

Seriously, 9/11 troofers bother me. There's a little weight to the proof, sure, but it doesn't matter because it ultimately doesn't matter if the administration was opportunistic in its wake or manufactured it - what happened afterwards is what we need to fight and pay attention to. The catalyst is really neither here nor there.

But that's just me :)

Oh, I totally agree. Also, I wouldn't put it past the gov't to make up a whole story whole cloth, although the idea that they orchestrated the whole thing doesn't make the least bit of sense, whatsoever.

Fer serious. Or we can take the South Park route in that the gov't would make up the 9/11 troof story to make them seem omnipresent and all powerful making people think they are far scarier than they are when really they have no fangs whatsoever.

I watched one episode, the first in 7 years, and it was the 9/11 troofers one. I have no reason ever to watch another episode. :D

That was a great fucking episode! It's too bad that show jumped the shark with the Imaginationland thing.

On the commentary for that one, Trey and Matt said that some of their staff working on the episode were saying "Well, this episode is funny and all, but you know, blah blah melting point of steel and blah blah if you look at the hole in the Pentagon..."
