Oprah Winfrey’s Retirement from Politics
OK Magazine ^ | 9-14-09

Posted on 09/14/2009 2:04:41 PM PDT by Justaham

If Oprah Winfrey can’t do it no one can — her endorsements turn to immediate success, her words of wisdom captivate millions, and her support helped elect America’s first African-American President, Barack Obama. But now it seems Oprah’s throwing in the political towel.

She should apologize to this nation and the world for supporting and helping to elect a fascist of questionable background.

Moreover, her 'viewers', proponents, sponsors and general well-wishers should comprehensively examine their reasons for contributing to her success.

While Oprah remains an avid Obama supporter, she intends to refrain from commenting on the current political situation.

Why, Oprah? Your audience is dwindling except for racists like yourself?! I wouldn't watch that female Jerry Springer if that was all that was left on television! She has gotten filthy rich off the backs of people who have major problems that she helped to exploit. Money can't buy class, Oprah.

I'm sure her ratings dropped because of her Obama endorsement and her decision to not interview Sarah Palin before the election.

I guess she read the obesity provisions of Obamacare, and realized the cheeseburger tax was going to bankrupt her.

I hope you all heard her RACIST remarks awhile back how she only hires WHITE people to work for her as a sort of turn around.
She another piece of racist garbage. She won’t comment on Obama because he is being revealed as a Marxist day by day and she’s don’t want to talk abou tit . Change ? yea , change my ass.

I do think you are right. A lot of people were very upset by her behavior. She put this empty suit obamination on her program but declined to interview Governor Palin...

This is typical Oprah. Think about all the diets, fades, philosophies she has endorsed in the past. And when things don't work out (she gets FAT again), oh well, thanks for buying my book.

Obama is a disaster, not bringing together as she promised- she "retires" from politics.

The reason Oprah and all the other filthy rich celebs got behind 0 is that they knew, once taxes were raised to pay for all this socialism, 0 would lay in tax breaks just for them, and their armies of tax lawyers and accountants could use them to keep their tax burdens nice and low. While at the same time, Mr. and Mrs. Middle America and Mr. and Mrs. Small Business Owner, who don't have the same resources, get hosed.

In addition, Oprah probably expects that when all these businesses go belly up, all the newly unemployed women will stay home, watch her show, and boost her ratings.

So, why should she and her ilk care if their Magic Negro and his sycophants turn this nation into a socialist backwater banana republic? They'll still have theirs, safe and sound.

And Oprah will be making an entire set of “Political Towls” available on her site, beginning next week.

Buy one of those scrub suits that Dr. Oz wears on everyone of his appearances, and Oprah will throw in a set of these all new Political Towels.

Translation: her focus and “Q” groups show she is losing market share.

We can only HOPE she doesn’t CHANGE her mind.
