OPFRAH: "Oh crap!!! They just suggested letting government take more money from the rich."

"Sister. Can you believe that sh$t?"

"I've worked damn hard to get mine."

MAYA: "Well, guess that's what we gets from being Democrats."

The first time I ever heard Maya Angelou's poetry was when my office partner and I had the 1992 Clinton inauguration on the radio (we had hoped that Rush was going to be on instead). Angelou read some of her poetry and we both asked simultaneously "What the hell is this crap?"

Maya: I'm bored. Hey, Oprah, so are you a lesbian or not?

Oprah: Yes I do, but not with you.

Maya: So what are we going to do now?

Just calling a duck a suck.

Partner, if that's a typo, it's the most hilarious typo I've seen in a while.

It still cracks me up that that this thing is called the "Clinton Global Initiative," or "CGI." Of course, CGI also stands for "computer generated image," or virtual reality -- making something which isn't real or has no substance in the real world, look real. This description also applies to the "Clinton Global Initiative."

I wonder if anyone at this conference suggested that poverty isn't caused by lack of public spending, but by the attitudes and choices of people in poverty.

Poet Maya Angelou, left, sits with television talk show host Oprah Winfrey
as the two glumly realize that the majority of the U.S. population that contributes
to society does not give two hoots what they think or say.
