Rosie O’Donnell has no problem relentlessly slamming anyone she suspects of even the slightest act of discrimination. However, in typical Leftist fashion she imagines herself floating, much like a Macy’s Day Parade Balloon, far above the commoners and their PC restrictions.
She won’t catch much flak from the media, or her political soulmates, for this episode but we can document the hypocrisy.
California Conservative makes a solid case for ignoring her though:
So, with all the issues one could reprimand Rosie about, what’s the problem with condemning her for doing a little “ching chong” routine? It’s making a big issue out of nothing, forcing even more bogus “cultural sensitivity” upon the public, and giving ammo to those who want to advance the agenda of political correctness. Can you say “Macaca”? Not if you’re Republican. As Michelle’s fellow political blogger, Mary Katharine Ham, points out: “[T]he gotcha game will never solve race problems by going around looking for racism in places where it doesn’t exist.”
Should every person be prohibited from mocking the German language with an over-acted accent, which is standard fare in many movies? Or French? Or African? Or Middle Eastern? Or Spanish? Maybe even Scottish. Jive? Ebonics? Richard Pryor. Eddie Murphy. Chris Rock. It’s aaaall good. Remember In Living Color? Or, more recently, how about Borat? It appears most people enjoy that sort of thing — and guess what? It’s called comedy. If we can’t all laugh about each other openly, we’re only hiding it.
Borat funny. Rosie? Not so much.

to me, it’s a language of hate, humiliation, degradation. i grew up with those taunts and they scarred me. i believe rosie is a caring person. i just think that she and all those who find it funny are unfamiliar with the effect it has to us asians. if she keeps doing it after being told that it’s hurtful and unfunny, then i must say she is a hypocrate.

Rosie O’Donnell is a self-pitying and grotesquely obese woman who had a chance to revive her career after it suffered a massive coronary.
Here is my impersonation of how she eats:
“gorble worble [scoop in lard] gorble worble [scoop in a handful of dead animals] gorble worble”

There’s a hilarious song about Rosie that just came out:
