'''Roseann Teresa O'Donnell''' (born March 21, 1962 in Bayside, Queens, New York) is a [[liberal]] [[Democratic Party|Democrat]] 11-time Emmy Award-winning talk show host, television personality, comedian, film, television, and stage actress. O'Donell has been an outspoken critic of the [[War on Terror]] <ref>''[[The New York Times]]'', [http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/25/business/media/25cnd-Rosie.html?hp Rosie O’Donnell to Leave ‘The View’ in June], Jaquess Steinberg, April 25, 2007. </ref> and mainstream [[Christianity]]. As she is a lesbian, O'Donnell is also a prominent [[gay rights]] activist. <ref>[http://www.cnn.com/2004/SHOWBIZ/TV/02/26/odonnell.ap/ Rosie O'Donnell marries girlfriend in San Francisco], CNN, February 27, 2004. </ref>

After beginning as a stand-up comic, O'Donnell gained notice for hosting her own daytime talk show ''The Rosie O'Donnell Show'', from 1996 to 2002. On September 5, 2006, she officially replaced Meredith Vieira as a regular cast of ABC's ''The View'', but on April 25, 2007 O'Donnell announced she was leaving the show in June after a public outcry over controversial remarks equating U.S. troops with [[terrorist]]s. Due to frequent disputes with Elisabeth Hasselbeck, a former reality show - Survivor: The Australian Outback - contestant and co-hostess of The View, she left the show weeks earlier than announced, and on May 25, 2007 she requested early leave after another on-air dispute with Hasselbeck. ABC granted her request. O'Donnell expressed interest in hosting The Price is Right when Bob Barker retires, but abruptly changed her mind and now states she has no interest.

She is known for her radical political beliefs and bizarre conspiracy theories. Recent posts on her website reveal that O'Donnell adheres to [[9/11 conspiracy theories]], that the attacks were a U.S. government plot. These however are consistent with the Leftist Elitist Hollywood views and it is not surprising considering she is an Iranian Expatriate.

In March of 2007, after terrorist Khalid Sheikh Mohammed confessed to being heavily involved in the orchestration of the [[9/11]] attacks, O'Donnell defended him and accused U.S. military personnel of torturing him. Later that month when 15 [[The United Kingdom|British]] sailors and marines were kidnapped by the government of [[Iran]], O'Donnell suggested that the incident was a hoax to provide an excuse to go to war with Iran.

Environmental Protection Agency

2007-07-11T15:58:26Z

Nickw252:

The '''Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)''' is a federal agency established in 1970 to protect the natural resources (e.g., air, water and land) and endangered species.<ref>http://www.epa.gov</ref> Its authority is established by a series of federal laws such as the [[Clean Air Act]]. Its administrator is appointed by the [[President of the United States|President]], and is usually given Cabinet-level rank.

The most influential act of the EPA was to ban [[DDT]], a decision that critics across the political spectrum say has resulted in deaths of millions annually in [[Africa]] from [[malaria]]. DDT is highly effective in eliminating malaria, as it did in the United States. The reason given for banning DDT was to protect numerous bird species and the harmless insects on which they depend for food, but groups across the political spectrum and even the ''New York Times'' have criticized the loss of human life, especially in Africa, caused by this ban.

The EPA is a large consumer of public resources and tax dollars, costing almost twice as much as the War Against Terror. It was started by Senator Al Gore before he invented the Internet and Global Warming. By abolishing the EPA, billions of tax dollars could be refunded to those Righteous tax-paying and law abiding Cristians.

On April 2, 2007, the [[Supreme Court]] ruled that the EPA has the authority to regulate [[greenhouse gas]] emissions. This was a rebuke to the [[George W. Bush|Bush]] administration, which had called for voluntary reduction of the gasses. <ref>Fox News: High Court Rebukes Bush on Car Pollution [http://www.foxnews.com/wires/2007Apr02/0,4670,ScotusGreenhouseGases,00.html]</ref>.

Pollution

2007-07-11T15:53:18Z

Nickw252:

A term with Biblical origins, often misused these days to refer to a merely worldly phenomenon - that of '''environmental pollution'''. While the physical pollution of the planet is a real problem, '''moral pollution''' has been recognized since the earliest times as the single greatest danger facing mankind, refering as it does to the pollution of men's souls with ungodliness.

Liberal [[environmentalist|environmentalists]] tend to be more concerned with environmental polution than with real pollution. This liberal view has become a pseudo-religion which is leans toward Satanism and Facism, and is more prevelant in Canada, China, and North Korea.
