Rosie O’Donnell, former co-host of The View, addressed President Barack Obama‘s decision to appear on the daytime talk show, during her Sirius XM radio show.
“I have mixed feelings about that (Obama’s appearance.) I don’t really think that sitting President’s should go do fluffy daytime TV shows. Maybe an hour on Oprah or something. I don’t really want to see him on The View, although I am happy for them (co-hosts). That’s a good booking….”
When the President was asked why he chose to be a guest on the ladies panel, he said, “Look, I was trying to find a show that Michelle actually watched, and so I thought this is it, right here. All those new shows, she’s like, eh, let me get the clicker.”
O’Donnell made a very big exit from The View back in 2006 after a series of nasty head-butting sessions with Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
