Rosie's Gay Cruise Gets Bermuda Shorted

Apparently it isn't whatever floats your boat. A July cruise organized by The View's Rosie O'Donnell for gay and lesbian fams has booted Bermuda from its itinerary because of possible protests by church groups in the British island territory, the AP reports. (In 2004, protesters chanting anti-gay slogans met one such cruise upon its arrival in Nassau.) A rep for O'Donnell's charter company says Bermuda will be replaced with two ports of call in Florida and a stop at a private island, explaining, "We feel that our cruise would be more enjoyable [visiting] ports where we know we are welcome by everyone."
