I honestly back up Alicia. I don't know if I would have taken it to that extent. not everyone who supports the war is an instrument in it.
I don't think her behavior was childish. Sometimes you have to stand up for what you believe in any way you can. At my college graduation when they announced the deans of the colleges all of the students from that respective college cheered. My college was the only college to BOO our Dean, and we got a lot of looks. I was sititng in the front row of my college, so another college was sitting in front of me and they had a lot of comments about it, but they had NO idea what we had been through or why we were doing it. In addition most of my college did no shake our dean's hand as we walked across the stage. Some people would call that childish. To me it was the only act of defiance we were allowed to make as we graduated. It was the only way we could show that we did not approve of our Dean and what he had done.
Would you feel differently about Alicia Silverstone's act if you knew that her brother or her best friend had been killed in the war?
I completely disagree with you. She was a GUEST on that show and should have greeted everyone.
You don't go to someone's house and only greet the husband and not the wife because you don't agree on some view or another.
It's called common decency.
Not saying hello to someone you disagree with isn't standing up for what you believe in. It's being petty and not having the ability to intelligently and respectfully disagree with someone.

I agree with this 1000%
Whatever happened with having MANNERS and common decency.
I can't never understand how someone can go to someone's home and not say "Good afternoon" for example or whatever it is for the time of the day or see someone and not say a greeting.
If you have differences with the person, you don't have to be super friendly and give a kiss of hello but at least you should show and have manners and say a general greeting.

What does that have to do with anything? Elizabeth didn't start the war, and she isn't a terrorist killing our soldiers in Iraq. This wasn't a peace rally; it was a talk show that she most likely asked to be on to promote whatever it is she is up to these days. It was extremely rude and she should never be asked back to the show.
What if Ann Coulter had come on the show and refused to greet Rosie? Would that be okay?
Completely!
If it were me, I'd be glad for Ann Coulter to stay the heck away.
Like I said I don't know if I would have taken it to that extent for Elisabeth because she is not an instrument of the war.
And if I went to someone's house and I felt thatw ay about someone I just wouldn't go. I have relatives I ignore at parties

I must agree with this. I'm one to believe that if someone has negative energy, you might as well stay away from them and fill that space with someone that adds something positive in your life. But sometimes with some relatives you don't even get that choice and you have to be a little bit diplomatic.......
ETA>> A general greeting always does the trick and you show you have manners and you can respectfully agree to disagree......

I'm completely with you on this one. As I said a few pages back, it's exactly what I'd do if I were in line to shake the president's hand: I'd keep moving.
That a little different though.. Elizabeth doesn't have her finger on the pulse of this war the way our president does (and when i say finger on the pulse, I don't mean it in a good way!). I'd be inclined to say many people woulnd't shake his hand because he's the one who actually sent our men and women over there.... we're getting off topic now though.
Can't wait to see how the rest of this unfolds <<insert evil laugh>>
