Ask any Black democrat if they would vote for a Black Republican and they will answer "NO" or "H*** No"

Zero himself has so spoken. During the last election campaign, he went to Maryland to campaign against Michael Steele and told the 93 percenters that race does not trump party. Later he went to Tennessee to stump for Harold Ford and told the 93 percenters to vote for pride and to send him some company in the Senate.

She’s a blatant liberal/ZerObambi backer and that’s gonna leave a mark.

Hey ... she's based out of Chicago, she is firmly behind Obama and has gone to great length to make that point. Dissing Sarah is to be expected. At greater peril to Oprah than Sarah, I might add.

Gee, I guess the moral of the story is that when you are an entertainer, you should keep your views under wraps and treat all candidates equally, since I am sure there are differing political parties within Oprah's audience. Duh!

Michael Jordan was asked once why he doesnt bother with politics...he made an answer (to the affect) 'even Republicans buy shoes.' Smart businessman.

Some of you might recall Oprah turning her face away from President Bush, when he come on her show and tried to kiss her on the cheek. You could see the dislike in her eyes.
Why would a Republican woman be welcomed to this show?
Don’t bother going Sarah.

Oprah needs to take the advice of her friend, and fellow Democrat Michael Jordan, "Republicans buy shoes too."

"So skin color trumps the female cause."

This was more or less demonstrated empirically in the jury analysis for the OJ trial. There was a firm that did pro bono demographic research for the LA DA's office who cautioned against the selection of black females for just that reason. Marcia Clark and the other prosecutors essentially rejected their worki out of hand, believing that the fact that black women suffered from a high incidence of domestic violence and would be sympathetic to the prosecution. Obviously they were wrong.

Oafrah is not in Sarah’s league. Good to see her influence on the decline.

Don’t go on the show. The woman thinks she is a god. She’s not nice and she’s not normal. She’s a racist. She hates the stupid white women that are her fans.

I just saw a shot of Sarah, Piper and Trig on a double issue of People magazine. Believe it comes out today and I was wondering if they were going to feature her—and the McCains—any time soon. Much ado about the Obama’s already.

Ping. You should tell your Oprah story when Bush was on the show!

Looks like we need a boycott. They have a new album coming out in early 2009.

Or send them a message. Here is their Official Website, however, it does require log-in to get in further. But who says you have to use your real info?

Or you can contact their lead guitarist/producer Craig Bartock at Craig@CraigBartock.com. here's his website

As for Oprah, so much for the Dems supporting the Fairness Doctrine.

Of course. Look what happened when Oprah had George W. Bush on in 2000. He won over a lot of hearts.

So much for expecting fairness, balance, or truth from Oprah.

This is a trap.

McCain’s campaign manager was on “Joe” this morning and was very pointed in his refusal to commit to Sara appearing on an interview show.

The spin is going to be that the campaign is hiding Sarah from the media. “She can read someone else’s words, but they’re scared to let her speak for herself.” Watch.

Oprah is going to reverse herself, invite Sarah to come on the show, and the attack dogs will pounce when Sarah politely declines.

Why go on Oprah when the questions are going to be coming directly from the Obama campaign?

Sarah’s speech was a beautiful thing, but it raised the stakes - she’s going to have to follow up on it and fast, or it’s going to be dismissed as a fluke and a “one hit wonder.”
