Top GOP Research Firm ‘Ready to Examine’ Oprah

The Washington Examiner‘s Philip Wegmann labeled Winfrey a "gold mine of opposition research," pointing to stories such as the time advice given on her show led a woman to decide against receiving cancer treatment due to a belief she could be healed through "positive thinking."

The Washington Post similarly published an article titled, "Oprah might run for president. We did the opposition research for you." It pointed out issues such as her close friendship with Harvey Weinstein, many years of child sex abuse at a school Winfrey founded in South Africa, and her comments that old people "have to die" to end racism.

The Washington Free Beacon also unearthed comments made by Winfrey in 2011 complaining about how much she is taxed as one of the wealthiest people in the world.

"I think it's so irritating that once I die, 55 percent of my money goes to the United States government," Winfrey said. "You know why it's so irritating? Because you already paid nearly 50 percent when the money was earned."

Though America Rising says it will dig into Winfrey just as it would any other candidate, it says the obsession over her political prospects is a sign of how "lackluster" the Democratic field is.

I think her psychological therapy and health issues will be enough to keep her from running.

Don’t forget Rev. Wright’s Down-Low Program that paired ugly women with politically astute gay men in order to make them look legitimate.

It's fake but accurate, and I'm not shirley.

A complete confession, the "soros" was taken from here:
