RUSH: You want to hear something odd, grab audio sound bite No. 23. On CBS This Morning, Co-Host Norah O’Donnell is speaking with The Oprah, well-known media mogul, about the impact The Oprah’s television show had on America. Question: “I think you captured people’s minds by talking about issues that people weren’t talking about on television — race and sexual abuse.”
Now, before we play the answer here, the idea that we weren’t talking about before The Oprah came along? They still say that to this day. How many times you hear Eric Holder? “You don’t have the guts to have a conversation about race,” he said. Whereas it seems to me that’s all this country does talk about. We’re talking about race all the time. We can’t get away from it, and reason we can’t get away from it because the American left won’t let anybody get away from it!
But all that aside, here is the answer from that, here’s the answer from media mogul The Oprah.
O’DONNELL: (crosstalk)
WINFREY: The first time we did a show on alcoholism and there was a family of five and I was like, “Oh, my God. I didn’t know that white people had dysfunction,” because I grew up thinking that all white people were like, uhhh, Leave It To Beaver. And so the first time I started having conversations with people with real dysfunctions, with real family issues from all parts of the country, it was a revelation to me.
RUSH: She “grew up thinking that all white people were like Leave It To Beaver.” I’ve never heard her say that before. Have you? So I don’t know. She “grew up thinking all white people were like Leave It To Beaver.” Can you imagine if Roseanne went on this show and said something like that about (laughing) take your pick of anybody?
There's a guy I know socially who is a plumber. He's lived all over Boston. A couple of years ago, he told me he was living in Dorchester.
I raised an eyebrow. He replied, "I'm not on the lootin' and shootin' side of town." So, it varies.
I’m supposed to care what Okra thinks about race?
Oprah and Obama must have been smokin the same sh*t.
Oprah: ‘I’m a jerk and I hate white waiters’. She is a moron, because I’ve seen her at restaurants in Hartford when her BFF was an anchor in Hartford.
It was never like Leave It To Beaver anywhere - if you mean an idealized “idea” of a perfect genteel family with no profound vices. Even some of the plot lines of some episodes of the show do a better job with reality than people’s idea of the show. There have always been broken families, alcoholism, infidelities, abuse and white trash behavior.
The difference, in those days, was that public acceptance and glorification of evil was not being forced upon us. Bad behavior, perversion etc... was recognized as bad behavior and was marginalized and frowned upon.
Pronounced, "Daawchistah."
Bill Clinton was like Ward, always walking around looking for Beaver.
There ya go!
Funny - until Oprah's TV show I thought all black people were like Sanford and Son....
Hmmm...Oprah, we never thought that all black people were like Amos & Andy...what’s THAT about?
Beat me to it!
Well, the joke's on you, Oprah. EVERY SINGLE WHITE PERSON is JUST LIKE A CHARACTER ON LEAVE IT TO BEAVER.
Or Gilligans Island.
Or Brady Bunch.
Or Hogans Heros.
And every single black person is just like a character from "Planet of the Apes" ...
Oprah is guilty of objectifying whites like too many of her race.
Racist bitch.
Until I saw The Jefferson’s, I thought all black families were like Sanford and Son.
