Oprah: No Huge Endorsement Event For Obama This Time
Real Clear Politics ^
Posted on 01/13/2012 12:46:37 PM PST by matt04
Oprah Winfrey tells CNN she still supports President Obama, however she will not do a large endorsement event like she did during the 2008 campaign cycle.
"I don't need to endorse him because I am a 100% supporter him of and I've already endorsed him. And I've already, you know -- everybody always asks me 'Are you going to do what you did in 2008?' What I did in 2008, I did because people really didn't know -- my friends didn't even know who he was at the time," Oprah Winfrey told CNN.
"They were like 'Who's this guy? You think that guy's going to be president?' I go 'Yeah, I really do,'"
"So, I was happy to step up and do what I felt was a public service because I so believed in him and I still do," she said.

She also doesn’t need to endorse him because she is 100% irrelevant.

Saw a supermarket check-out tabloid today that claims Oprah has filled out her form to a svelte 280 pounds.

She’s been on that see-food diet. She could replace Pyongyang Patty in North Korea, she could be an even bigger star, and she’s already in the range of the ‘Great Successor’ Kim Jong Un. lol

Oprah, you have to concentrate on keeping your new cable network solvent. Can’t be further alienating all those prospective whitey viewers with big shindigs for your anointed one.

She attended Reverend Wrights church, after years of preaching woman empowerment, she skipped the woman candidate and started on black empowerment.

I haven't seen billionaire Oprah begging to pay more taxes or stand in line at the health care center ...I wonder what it is that draws her to the community organizer street agitator.

What I did in 2008, I did because people really didn't know -- my friends didn't even know who he was at the time,"... And, we still don't know who he is, where he was born, his social security number, his college transcripts, etc. Maybe you (Oprah) can find that out. Whatcha think?

No, she is not irrelevant. Would that she were.
Unfortunately, in our modern society people pattern there lives after these despicable, values challenged celebrities.

Gayle King is her proxy this time around.
Gayle has joined the CBS Early Show as a co-host, and debuted with her one-on-one with Mitchell Ubama.
What a coincidence.
Not.
