Rosie on calling former president Bill Clinton after she slammed him at a Casino Hotel five years prior:
"My knees got weak. I was like, 'Can I [bleep] you?' No, I didn't say it, but I felt it - I was like, 'Whoa! Whoa!' And he said, 'I was at your show the other night, and I was sorry that you didn't come over and say hello to me. And I know that you're still harboring some hard feelings.' "
"And I said, 'You know, listen, here's the deal, dude. I've been disappointed by men my whole life. I loved JFK, my mother loved JFK, and you were the JFK to me. And you let me down, man. You killed me and that hurt me a lot, and when you hurt me, I don't know, I didn't expect that out of you and I thought you could do better for your wife, for the country and just in general."
Bill then said: "I'm sorry for all the men who ever hurt you, I'm sorry that I hurt you. Everything you've said to me, I've said to myself, and I hope one day you can forgive me, and I hope I can forgive me."
Rosie's eyes were watering up........."I'm hysterical crying," she recalled.
She also poked fun about her stalker-like fascination with pop mess Britney Spears:
"I want her to come live with me, but I have to stop saying that. I'm a 45-year-old overweight lesbian. She's like a 23-year-old hot, skinny sexy girl. I think she's going to call the police soon, you know. I mean I phone her, I leave her like stalker-like messages at the Four Seasons."
