WASHINGTON - Power outages left many wondering who turned out the lights in D.C. on Tuesday-- including OprahWinfrey. The power went off at D.C.'s Warner Theatre, right in the middle of Ms. Winfrey's speech honoring Maya Angelou.
Winfrey was part of the dedication ceremony of a new U.S. Postal Service Forever Stamp that honors Angelou.
"I am honored to be here to stand her as her daughter, sister-friend at the unveiling of the Maya Forever-- FOREVER-- stamp," Winfrey said, and then the lights went out.

I am sick and tired of seeing theater spelled like theatre. We are not England. I told my movie theater to change it......they had better do it. I can’t stand it.

Is it too soon to blame this on Bush or the Republican senate?

Oprah will claim it was a raciest conspiracy.

Is anything that happens in D.C. a coincidence these days?
