I dont believe that Rosie or any other celeb has stated that everyone has to agree with their ideas or opinions. As for pushing opinions, some ppl are passionate about their beliefs and ideas and are very vocal about them while others tend not to be so bolsterous. Doesnt make one any less factual or real.
I've seen a LOT of untrue statements made about Rosie but anyone who has taken the time to due research on her, her Broadway Kids and NUMEROUS other programs for children as well as the work she has been doing for our soldiers will tell u she does it out of real love and compassion - not to be a celeb or for publicity.
I was lucky enough to meet her during a trip she made to Central IL in support of a program here where seniors are helping children read, perform math skills and learn social skills. She came for a day, talked at length about how she could help, and has provided constant support since. I've researched her in depth - not her celeb personality but the person who gives her time and money to children and other very worthwhile causes.
We may not always agree with someone (celeb or not) but resorting to name calling and purpetuating untruths doesnt help any situation. If any of us had constant monitoring by media I'm sure we'd find ourselves appearing not so nice and judged by many who dont believe in what we do but does it make you any less you? Does it make what u believe in any less valuable?
