Now who would post a photo of their 4-year old daughter in full military dress on a website? Rosie O’Donnell, of course - the crude, coarse and tasteless “commedian” and “celebrity.” I put both in quotes because I don’t think she is either. Here’s the story:

Daughter Pics Spark New Rosie Outrage
AOL
(June 27) — Rosie O’Donnell was never afraid to air her opinions on the war in Iraq during her ‘View’ tenure, but war-related photos of her 4-year-old daughter are causing many to think Rosie’s gone too far.

On her blog Tuesday, O’Donnell posted photos of her daughter Vivian Rose in a post titled “Dress Up.” In the photo sequence, Vivian Rose is shown with the header “Last year a princess,” where she’s seen in the typical royal wardrobe. Then, “This year a soldier” flashes across the video slideshow, revealing the blond-haired child wearing a bullet belt and head coverings.

The images are causing an uproar among many, causing a flood of e-mails speaking out against them on Rosie’s blog.

“Ro, so disappointed to see your little ones with bullets. Where are the guns? I thought for sure you would protect them more from such things,” one angry reader said to O’Donnell.

“That picture is gross! I am disturbed,” another reader said.

According to the New York Daily News, O’Donnell wrote on her blog: “”My daughter in a soldier costume, national news. [But] 3,500 dead soldiers for real, they don’t comment. Shame,” O’Donnell wrote on her blog, responding to the criticism.” On Wednesday morning, those words were not on the blog.

The Daily News says Rosie claims the photo was intended to show how Vivian Rose likes to mimic her older brothers, and that the bullets were fake.

“Her children were playing and they play dress-up, and that was just an image that she took,” O’Donnell’s spokesperson Cindi Berger told the Daily News. “She is absolutely anti-war.”

I rather feel sorry for Rosie’s children. That household can’t be a very pleasant place to live. At one time - years ago - Rosie was funny and seemed human. Now, though, it appears she has let life’s hard knocks embitter her. Now she just seems mean and angry. Life’s hard on EVERYBODY. She needs to get over herself.

WWE Pro Wrestler, Chris Benoit, his wife and 7-year-old son were found dead in their Fayetteville, Georgia home on Monday afternoon. The deaths have been rules a double murder suicide.

Preliminary reports are that Benoit strangled his wife, Nancy (aka Woman) on Friday. She was found with her hands and feet bound. He apparently suffocated his son, Daniel, sometime early Saturday.

Benoit then called to say he wouldn’t be making a scheduled appearance on Saturday evening due to a family emergency. He sent text messages to friends on Sunday that were alarming enough for the friends to notify Richard Hering, VP of Government Relations for WWE, who in turn contacted the Fayette County Sheriffs office. When authorities entered the home they found all three family members dead.

Authorities believe he hung himself with his weight equipment sometime late Sunday or early Monday. The bodies have been sent to the Georgia Department of Investigation’s crime lab.

There is a lot of discussion about the possibility of ‘Roid Rage’, that this incident may have been precipitated by steroid use. The WWE is denying that citing clean drug screens among other things. None is terribly convincing. It’s not that hard to get around a drug screen.

I have seen a lot of his colleagues speak of Benoit in disbelief that these events have transpired. They spoke of his love and affection for his son. But there are suggestions there might have been a darker side to Benoit. His wife had filed for divorce and obtained a restraining order in 2003 stating she feared her own and her son’s safety. The Atlantic Online reports that it is looking like Benoit might have lead a ‘tortuous, rageful life’ culminating in this horrific act.

Chris Benoit’s wife, Nancy, has an interesting history of her own. She was a wresting manager from 1984 until her death last weekend. Her stage name was ‘Woman’.

The story of this tragedy will continue to unfold. The toxicology results should confirm whether or not steroids might have exacerbated Benoit’s rage. People will talk more and the pieces of the puzzle will slowly get put into place.

I find it so odd that he felt responsible to call and tell the WWE that he wouldn’t make his appearance on Saturday night. I don’t know why that has puzzled me so much. Perhaps he didn’t want them finding him before he was ready.

It wasn’t any big surprise when Bobby Cutts, Jr. was arrested for the murder of the Ohio missing pregnant mother, Jessie Davis. The bodies of Jessie Davis and her unborn baby were found buried in a shallow grave a few miles from her home. Apparently, Cutts told the police where to find her body, probably in hopes of sidestepping the death penalty.

Now, an accomplice has been arrested. Cutts high school friend, Myisha Ferrell has been arrested and charged with obstruction of justice. Investigators had to force their way into her apartment and she was subsequently arrested. It’s alleged she helped Cutts clean up the crime scene at Davis’ house.

I wonder if either one of them gave a thought to the 2-year-old boy, Bobby Cutts’ son, who witnessed the murder and was then left in the house alone. Did they give that a second thought?

The investigation is ongoing and the possibility remains that she will be facing more charges, including helping to dispose of the bodies.

There is also speculation that a third person, another woman, is under investigation for having participated in the crime after the fact.

How many women did this Cutts guy manipulate into doing his bidding? He had children with multiple women, he had a rap sheet yet still was able to get on with the Canton police. It’s just phenomenal that he manipulated so many people and had so few consequences for his bad behavior.

He had a week to come up with a story and apparently the best he could come up with was that she just suddenly died and he panicked and took her to bury her. So that looks like he’s not a rocket scientist.

Still, a dirty cop who killed a woman and baby will not have a happy time in prison. That would certainly be some portion of justice. At least, we won’t be impregnating any more women.

Hazel, he’s vermin. Worse than vermin. I hope he gets what he deserves. Later, Adeline
