BUSTED! Audio Exposes Rosie O'Donnell's Big 'I Never Said I Liked Tom Cruise THAT Way' Lie
Drudge Report ^ | March 13, 2002 | L.N. Smithee

Posted on 03/13/2002 11:20:44 AM PST by L.N. Smithee

From Drudge's leaked transcript of the upcoming Diane Sawyer interview with Rosie O'Donnell:


On her feelings toward Tom Cruise:

I never once said I want him naked in the bed doing the nasty. I want him to mow my lawn and get me a lemonade. He makes my palms sweat. He makes my heart beat, and I adore him, gay, straight, or somewhere in between, he is the perfect man that ever walked the face of the earth...Some gay rights people, or gay activists have said, "Oh, you're trying to make people think that you're straight by saying that Tom Cruise thing." As if gay people cannot appreciate the aesthetic beauty of somebody of the other gender. That is so untrue. He's absolutely the most handsome, gorgeous, make me blotch man I've ever met in my life. That doesn't mean that that's my sexuality, or that I'm going to end up marrying him or would want to. You know, I've said on my show many times, I don't like him in an adult, sexual, carnal way. I like him like Davy Jones. I used to put his poster on my wall, and kiss it goodnight before I went to bed. That's Tom Cruise to me.


"That doesn't mean that that's my sexuality, or that I'm going to end up marrying him or would want to..." O'Really, Rosie? That's not the impression you gave the viewing public. For those who doubt this, let's go to the audiotape, as captured at a Tom Cruise fan page. Apparently, these were recorded before and after Cruise's appearance on the Rosie show.
Sung to the melody of "Love" (originally by Nat King Cole):
T is for the time I'll spend with you
O is for the one love that is true
M is many, many dreams, extra-ordinary
C is caught by love
You will have fun 'cause you're my Top Gun

Tom is all this girl will ever need
Tom, well he is a true friend indeed
Tom and I can make it
A love, you just can't fake it

Tom, I think it's you and me...

Sung to the melody of "The Morning After" (originally by the superb Maureen McGovern):

Oh, how I love the morning after
The scent of Tom still in the air
I hope he comes back tomorrow
More special time I'd like to share

Oh, how I love the morning after
Visions of Tom dance in my head
The next time that Tom comes on my show
That could be the day we wed...

In the grand scheme of things, it is of very little consequence that Rosie continues to lie about deliberately deceiving her fans about her sexuality. Personally, I learned years ago not to project my presumptions about performers personal lives, since that will ALWAYS lead to disappointment as soon as something juicy is revealed -- and something ALWAYS is revealed. I am just pointing this out as a way of illustrating the ways that the media will just roll over for liberal icons and activists rather than questioning them in the same way they would those right-of-center.

For the record -- I predicted this day would come. Not simply that Rosie would out herself, not only that she would do so with fanfare that dwarfed Ellen DeGeneres' announcement, but that she would use her reputation as a child advocate -- carefully cultivated while she was in the closet -- and make herself a poster child for the Gay-stapo. As is documented in the Drudge leak, she is willing to take up the mantle, saying "I am the gay parent."

A few days after the Ellen hoopla, I posted such a notice to a USENET television newsgroup (this was before I discovered FR), and got a lot of heat. Well, I was right.

Unfortunately.

We knew this Rosie thing was coming.

You and I are wittnessing parallel universes. One universe is the America becoming increasingly Conservative.

The Hollywood and Media Elite Universe is still advancing its agenda.

Who ever says that we are winning is wrong. Much, Much work needs to be done.

I don't think you choose whether or not you're gay. Who would choose it? It's a very difficult life. You get socially ostracized. You worry all the time whether or not you're in physical danger if you show affection to your partner. You're worried that you're an outcast with your friends and with your ... society in general. It's a very difficult life. I don't think anyone would choose it.

Why not choose to be a victim? It's then so much easier to claim the world is out to get you should you fail or be criticized. Beyond that, lots of folks just prefer rebellion - especially if they've been hurt as a young person. It's not that difficult to understand the choice.

"or that I'm going to end up marrying him or would want to. You know..."

Not to sound harsh or anything, but Tom Cruise is known to like beautiful women. I mean, he was married to Nicole Kidman and is now dating Penelope Cruz, both of whom are very good-looking, not to mention, thin people.

She was using the "I love Tom Cruse" to hide her lesbianism.
Her viewing audiance is usually stay home mothers - which means they have MEN!

Wouldn't it be nice if her show bottomed out because of this?
Her anti-gun antics lost a lot of viewers, but her show was kept on hoping viewers would forget over time. She never did get them back for that stupid move.
Let's hope this one puts her show off the air.

I would have thought Rosie would go for Aquaman over Tom Cruise.

Yet more non-news about Mrs. O'leary's cow. God I wish she'd go away. Of course I wish Hillary, and Bill and Janet, and Algore, and Joe Liarman would also go away. Oh and I forgot, Alecccccch Baldwanker, Tom Dasshole, and all the other pinko libs who are all for legislating human behavior.

LESBIAN TACTICS: Type of action. Avoid old stale tactics at al costs. Chanting and picketing no longer make an impression. Standing passively still and listening to speakers is boring and disempowering. Look for daring, new participatory tactics depending on the nature of your action. NY Avengers have used overnight encampments, daring Zaps in the halls of the Plaza Hotel, an invasion of the offices of Self magazine, a torchlight parade down fifth avenue at rush hour without a permit, handing out balloons to school children in an anti-gay district that said "Ask about Lesbian Lives, etc." Type of Action: Symbolic, Disruption, Interference, Education, Group size and composition.

If all they went away who would we have to make fun of?

LOL! She's also responsible for the Peshtigo fire as well, as the wind skipped a few flames from the Chicago fire onto the Northern WI forest.

Look at how lucky Rosie's kid is. In 20 years when s/he is a ferquently jailed/rehabbed druggie, s/he will be able to blame everything on a whole list of things. "I am not at fault. I am this way because my mom was:

1. a lesbo,

2. cetaciously fat,

3. an ultraliberal, left wing extremist,

4. a gun hater (except for my bodyguard),

5. a single parent,

6. hated by millions,

7. pig like,

and I was: 1. adopted, and had no male role models."

I'm alittle confused....

"I used to put his poster on my wall, and kiss it goodnight before I went to bed. That's Tom Cruise to me"

This is the stuff that she was throwing out there cover her sexuality, right? Then why didn't 1}Anyone bring up the fact she is the same age or older than Cruise & 2}When Cruise "made it big" he was an Adult, hence, making Rosie an adult as well.

No one caught onto this statement?, or the fact that Rosie's admitted "behaviour" is just a tad bit odd even if it were true?? I mean come on, Putting teen Idol posters up on your wall as an adult, AND kissing them goodnight?!
