I have spent hours researching this matter, filing this complaint, and emailing them to no avail. They should refund the charges, write me a letter of apology, and pay for the hours I have spent and the inconvenience they have subjected me too having to cancel my credit card. I think a $500 dollar settlement would be appropriate.<BR/><BR/>They should also change their deceptive practices, and post an apology on their website. If all these requirements are met, I will consider this matter closed.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17343418500668401039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1487348511358988392.post-25618491962274231272009-01-14T19:57:00.000-05:002009-01-14T19:57:00.000-05:00Hey Lisa,The holidays are now over.

She put this man on the spot on national television for his views and it wasn't only unsolicited - it was NEVER mentioned beforehand as a topic for Selleck to discuss! Her rant had absolutely NOTHING to do with the crackhead down the street. She simply wanted ratings and felt that this was a good way to go about it and when she found out that it backfired, she was all teary-eyed about having done what she did.<BR/><BR/>I have no sympathy for Rosie O'Donnell and her plight for self-righteous, uber-liberal, one-sided beliefs. She is as I stated - a very caustic woman.<BR/><BR/>When I went into the voting booth in Youngstown, Ohio back in 2004 to vote - one of the issues was the proposed Ohio Constitutional Amendment to ban gay marriage. I voted against banning it <B><I>IN SPITE</I></B> of people like Rosie O'Donnell - not because of them. If Rosie were the only person affected by my vote, I would have found a way to vote against her ten times over. She's a despicable woman who is, ironically, one of the most intolerant people in show business today.<BR/><BR/>As for her being on Hannity and Colmes - it would at least be the proper forum - at least people coming on the show and tuning in would know what to expect under that context!The Chiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643714174401360994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1487348511358988392.post-58909224598708836532008-11-28T09:00:00.000-05:002008-11-28T09:00:00.000-05:00I've seen that Tom Selleck interview several t...I've seen that Tom Selleck interview several times, and I agree, it was certainly cringe-worthy. I also remember when the news came out about her bodyguard carrying a gun, but that still doesn't strike me as hypocritical. Just because someone is pro-regulation doesn't mean they are completely anti-gun. I think every American has the right to own a gun if they want one, but I also believe in wait times and background checks and such. Bodyguards and security personnel should be able to carry a weapon as part of their job, but do we really want the crackhead down the street to have one, too?<BR/><BR/>So many issues are not black and white...there are shades of gray where people need to try and meet in the middle and come to some sort of viable compromise. Because she feels so strongly about certain issues, and is quite forceful in stating them, unfortunately Rosie can come across as unyielding and immoderate. <BR/><BR/>As much as she says she doesn't want to do a political commentary show, I think it would get huge ratings. Can you imagine Rosie replacing Alan Colmes on Hannity & Colmes?? Now THAT would be explosive television!!Lisa Yakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09341899958334590066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1487348511358988392.post-60783637164319263012008-11-27T23:23:00.000-05:002008-11-27T23:23:00.000-05:00Just a caustic woman all around.

She is blatently disrespectful to ANYONE who holds a contrary opinion and feels a self-righteous authoritative approach is the best way to deal with people.<BR/><BR/>I would like to go back a few years with Rosie and talk about her hypocritical ambush of Tom Selleck because he is a member of the NRA. She lambasted him (he came on her show to plug a movie he was in) and she ambushed him with her anti-gun rant. Why was this hypocritical? No... not because it was later revealed that her bodyguard carried a gun... it was something more immediate to the situation and less obvious to many...<BR/><BR/>Go back and watch that interview on YouTube. It took place back around 1999. Remember that the new Star Wars movie was released then? Rosie was a big fan. Rosie blasted Tom Selleck for his membership in the NRA while at the same exact time she had all those little Star Wars figures lined up on her desk and guess what????.....<BR/><BR/>They all had guns/blasters in their little PVC hands!<BR/><BR/>Yes, Rosie is a hypocrite. Take whatever stand you want... but dammit... respect others for their views too, Rosie!The Chiefhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643714174401360994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1487348511358988392.post-12307531759412492132008-11-26T19:27:00.000-05:002008-11-26T19:27:00.000-05:00Ian and I just counted how many year's it's been s...Ian and I just counted how many year's it's been since we met - 17.
