Taking Down Oprah!
non ^ | mylittlebrain | Me

Oprah has the right to refuse to interview Sarah Palin on her show,but we have the right to not buy what she is selling. Here is a list of Oprah's sponsors I will not patronize and products I will not buy. I will also be making some phone calls to these sponsors as well.

Oprah pi$$es on her audience’s leg and then tells them it’s raining. They believe her.

Errr, wait — does it still count if I don’t actually use the products anyway?????)

I just makes you astute. Their products are lousey.

Oprah thinks she’s so funny. She says something “cute”, then gawfaws loudly, looking around at the audience, imploring them to laugh at what she said. I think Sarah has too much class to go on that show for the reason you state, it’s a liberal cry fest for women who spill their guts on national tv for sympathy.

Oprah is still a shrewd operator. With all her "staff leaks", press announcements, etc. she's given the impression that Sarah wanted to be on her vapid show in the first place.

Of course, nothing could be farther than the truth. But Oprah, by moving fast, created an impression to her vaccuous women viewers that she has a form of dominance over Palin, even though educated people don't buy her manipulations.

Don't purchase Oprah's sleek rag mag staring out at you in the checkout lines. A really charitable use for the outrageous four dollars a pop for this publication would be to donate the money to Obama's African half-brother. This would help to keep him in in his hut for at least four more months. And think of the warm fuzzies you would get for this act of charity.

Yep, American corporations such as publishing houses, are evil and making too much profit, aren't they, Madame CEO Oprah?

FOUR DOLLARS????

I doubt if Palin was interested anyway. If asked to be on after the election she should just say ‘are you kidding? I am waaaaay too busy for this sort of thing now!’

Oprah has the right to refuse to interview Sarah Palin

The wording implies that Oprah turned down Sarah Palin’s request for an interview. Is that what happened? Would Sarah Palin agree to accept Oprah’s request to interview her?

"Did she ever actually have Obama on her show? "

Twice. Once in January 2005 and, more recently, in October 2006. He didn't announce his candidacy officially until Feb. of 2007, but you can't tell me that he wasn't planning to run when he appeared on her show in Oct. Chances are the two of them discussed it, either on the air, or behind the scenes. I don't watch the show, never have, so I can't say for sure that the topic was brought up on either of his appearances. Knowing Bambi's arrogance, I can see him broaching the topic with her. I'd bet she knew his plans back then.

"Oprah could use the ratings. Ever since she's been in the tank for Obama, her ratings have skydived."

I checked her "Community" message board since she announced she wouldn't have Gov. Palin on her show, and the backlash from women who watch her show is pretty bad. I'd like nothing more than for her show to get canned.

I've never watched her show, but wrote and asked them if they wouldn't have Gov. Palin on, could they at least have Obama's long-lost brother, George Obama who lives in a hut outside of Nairobi. No response yet from the show...LOL!

I turned around the US Magazines at the check-out yesterday. They’re the ones with Gov. Palin on the Babies, Lies and Scandal cover. I’ll continue to do it and will add Okra’s magazine to the mix.

I just came from Walmart with that intent but they didn’t have the mag by the checkout counters.

Does Walmart put their magazines in racks in their book section?

My wal mart has magazines in the book section, and at the front checkout-and the same magazines (the biggest sellers) will be in both sections, not one or the other.
