The View catfight is back on! Even though she’s no longer on the show, Rosie O’Donnell is still dissing former co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck—most recently calling her a name that Fox News coyly says “starts with a ‘t’ and rhymes with ‘swat.’” The insult came during a recent stand-up routine during which Rosie also renamed the show The Screw You and her nemesis “Elisabeth Half-a-brain,” an audience member says.

Of course, she “then moved on to a different subject, saying she really didn't want to start a new feud, or restart an old one,” the source says. (More Rosie O'Donnell stories.)
