He met with BP Execs for the first time just this week for a full twenty minutes.

He spent 40 minutes at the so called “Beer Summit”.

I really don't understand what people want him to do?

How about "Plug the hole" for starts, Okra?

"You're not supposed to be emotional, you're supposed to take action and get things done and make sure those things happen ...

Well dOprah, your beloved kenyan is doing NOTHING!!! The only action he's taken is deciding which golf course to play on. God forgive me, but I almost miss Slick Willie. At least he would have done something. This clown is supposedly an "organizer", hell, he can't even organize a bake sale.

Oprah is proof that as long as you have tons of $$$ people will take your opinions seriously no matter how stupid they may be.

BTW Wasn't Oprah a parishioner of Rev Wright?

Get off your knees, Oprah. It’s so unbecoming.

Let’s take a look at Barack Hussein Obama’s record...his “best he can” crap, okay, Oprah?

CLOSE GITMO: FAIL

STIMULUS TAKING UNEMPLOYMENT TO 8% OR BELOW: FAIL

HEALTH CARE PLAN AMERICA LIKES: FAIL

AFGHANISTAN WAR: STALLED TROOP SURGE/WORST MONTHS IN TERMS OF AMERICAN TROOP DEATHS

OLYMPICS TO CHICAGO: FAIL

STOPPING IRANS NUKES: FAIL

STOPPING NORTH KOREA’S AGGRESSION: FAIL

PLUGGING THE HOLE DADDY: FAIL

GOLFING 38 TIMES (INCLUDING 4 SINCE THE RIG EXPLODED): FAIL

POLITICAL FUNDRAISER DURING MEMORIAL SERVICE FOR KILLED RIG WORKERS: FAIL

(This is all I could think of at the moment. There are plenty more, I’m sure.)

Yeah, he has really done his best Oprah.

Very defensive attitude from Orca. Suggests that inwardly blacks know that Obama is an epic failure but will not voice it outside of the tribal gatherings. Also, I suspect they know that Obama has had a big negative effect on future race relations.

Oprah, to her credit, left the church because Wright was too much of a kook for her. Seriously.

The media queen told a group of graduates at the Howard University commencement Saturday that her grandmother’s wish was that Oprah would someday work for some “good white folks.” How the tables have turned, said Oprah, now that those “good white folks” are working for her.

Sadly, I think what we're seeing from obama is in fact the best he can do. He is not very impessive as a leader, thinker, heck even as just a man.

From what I hear, that's the only "man" she'd be willing to do that for.

“Obama’s doing best he can.” - Oprah Winfrey

96% of black Americans voted for Obama because... well... he was black. Nothing else seemed to matter. I find this whole thing really sad because the black community is just so invested in having a black president.

After all these years after the civil rights movement, WHY do people find it so unusual that we would have a black president? I find the video of the black students chanting that they’re Obama Scholars equally disturbing, WHY is it such a foreign concept that they can succeed on a level playing field?

Obama could bugger kindergartners on national TV during Superbowl halftime, and there would be no shortage of apologists explaining his actions.

All black kids need is a little support from their parents, with some emphasis on education and doing well to earn confidence and self esteem. They don’t need to be led in a chant at school, this is no substitute for the fruit of real achievement.

Grr.

Obama's doing best he can

Sarah Palin, who actually has managerial experience, would have handled it much better.

"The sad thing is, Oprah is right, he is doing the best he can."

Bttt

She sounds like the typical battered wife after making yet another flawed choice. They always find an excuse for the husbands they choose. Like them, Oprah is an enabler.

She can run but she can't hide - that vacuous air-head went just about farther than anyone to help put this incompetent punk where he's at.

“I think he’s the president of the United States.”

Exactamondo. and US citizens expect him to do something that is actually contructive instead of destructive.
