I bet if she was colored she would be on Oprah.

The hypocricy of the 'left' is in full view here.

They want 'their boy' 'lil black sambo' elected so they can put 'whitey' in his place.

However, when 'whitey' suddenly comes up with someone who will most likely blow them off the map, they don't even allow her the same venue to discuss her views.

Let's face it. Oprah is a smart, biggoted, FAT, hypocrite that wants to show white people a 'lesson' by getting her little protoge elected
president. To allow Sarah Palin ANY time (forget ' equal time ') to what
she gave sambo, it simply out of the question for her.

She knows that, unless they suddenly get a whole load of 'smarts' all them 'blackies' will vote for sambo no matter what.

(HEY, HE'S B L A C K we gotta elect him president so we can screw white people ! )


QUESTION: 'What do you think about his experience in 'foreign affairs ?' ...'

black guy answer: 'Well, I've had several foreign affairs too, but I didn't get 'em pregnant, so I guess he's had good experience too . . . '
sO, I'm gonna vote for him !

Oprah can’t have what Palin has in a million years: Family, good looks, respect of friends, community and loved ones, children, great intelligence, skills…

She try to trick her viewing audience by putting Obama on the show early before he was techinically running for office. Then, once the election started, she said that no one in the race could be on the show. This way she closed out Hillary Clinton and anyone from the Republican Party. However, she really isn't fooling anyone but herself. She is biased and arrogant.

Money is important and we all need to do our best. But at what expense? My guess is that Oprah is one miserable human being who is constantly watching her back. I honestly hopes she retires, gets some therapy and gives back to her community here in this country.

Oprah’s ratings are falling:
January 14-20
RANK PROGRAMS ORIG Persons Live+SD (000)
#4 OPRAH WINFREY SHOW CTD 7,594

August 18-24
RANK PROGRAMS ORIG Persons Live+SD (000)
#6 OPRAH WINFREY SHOW CTD 5,233

Here are some names of sponsors:
Pella, Philosophy, Allstate, GM, Disney/Universal, HBO and Target.

Take action. Boycott, boycott, and then boycott some more. Spend some of your former Oprah time writing some of these sponsors.

Then spend it helping your kids, family, community . If you would like, take a college course or get in some exercise.

Be as productive as possible.
You will be much happier, healthier and thinner spending your time doing something else. Ignore Oprah, be good to yourself, family, friends and country and move forward.

Oprah did have Obama on her show before he was running - so what? If she had had McCain on in the same vein, other people would be calling for her head - just picky crap! It's time to spend looking at the candidates themselves and trying to figure out the best course for this country.

Let's stick to the facts ....Sep 10th, 2008 - 22:23:49

Making discriminatory and offensive remarks, whether about Oprah or about Obama, just confuses the issue. The fact is that Oprah has made a choice of which candidate she supported (pre-primaries) and provided him with all the public exposure she could. She has continued to campaign for B Obama during the primaries and now in the campaign proper. At the same time, she blocked her show for all other candidates -- Democratic as well as Republican and female as well as male. In that sense, she's not 'discriminating' as much as she is throwing all her support to her personal choice. And in the American democracy, there's nothing wrong with personally supporting your choice. But to the extent that her show is not simply Oprah's personal views, but a forum for discussion, education, and influence, that sort of personal bias is way out of place.

However, her viewers and Americans generally, also have freedom -- the freedom to say, 'If Oprah's going to base who she brings on the show based on her own personal views and ignore what is important to me, then why am I letting her decide what my sources of information will be?' Exactly ... if her staff has been getting thousands of requests for Palin, Clinton, etc., to be interviewed and the basic answer is 'no, not until after the campaign', then maybe viewers ought to watch another program until after the campaign ... and maybe long after the campaign is over ... and let Oprah's staff and, most importantly, Oprah's sponsors, know what they're doing and why ...

Oprah's decision is basically arrogant and she ought to reap the reward for such a poor attitude towards her fans and towards Americans in general. Oprah needs to remember that she's here to serve her audience ... or her audience will go elsewhere and she can interview herself in a nice quiet room ...

Wow, Scott. I had no idea we still had such hardcore racists loose in the country. Your issue with Obama is quite clear -- he's Black. The man never had to open his mouth to lose your vote. I recommend you find a time machine and get back to the 1950s where you belong....

I'm not a fan of Oprah, but I wasn't aware that Miss Alaska Runner-up Sarah (teenage daughter pregnant, shotgun wedding pending) Palin has a constitutional right to appear on the Oprah Winfrey show.

And Scott Smith---you are a racist, pure and simple. Now go wash your KKK hood---and go get your shine box while your're at it.

Oprah doesn't really care for white people. Watch her show and listen to the subtle remarks she makes quite often about those of the caucasian persuasion.

Palin and her trailer-trash family need to be on Springer or Maury, NOT Oprah!

Perhaps Maury could do a 'whose the baby daddy' paternity test for her youngest son and Bristol's kid.

My wife and lots of other women were offended that Oprah said that she would not have Sarah Palin on her show until after the election because she was not going to support the election even though she has publicly endorsed Obama on National Television and is always talking about supporting women and being non-biased!

For all those people saying it's unfair Oprah didn't have Palin on the show:

Oprah has had Obama as a guest twice -- in January 2005 and October 2006. Both occasions were BEFORE the Illinois senator officially announced he was running for the White House.

According to Oprah: 'At the beginning of this presidential campaign, when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision NOT to use my show as a platform for ANY of the candidates.'

Google for : Brokaw falsely suggested Oprah hosted Obama as a presidential candidate
