Oprah is in trouble again.
I first heard about this story when Anthony R put up a link on my blog "Liberals Make My Head Hurt." In the link a radio show caller read a letter aloud that she had written to Oprah expressing disappointment in the fact that Palin was not going to be allowed on her show. This woman had a severely disabled 24 year old daughter and was looking towards Palin as a role model for all mothers of disadvantaged children.
So the question is why isn't Oprah allowing Palin on her show? Could it be because Palin is running against the great Obama?
I think it is.
So now the Florida Federation of Republician Women are boycotting Oprah's show after the talk-show host refused to allow Sarah Palin as a guest on her show before the election. Hmmmmm do you think Sarah would go on the Oprah Winfrey Show afterwards?
I don't think so. At least I hope not.
Now, here's again, where LIberals make no sense to me. Oprah built her career catering to women and helping them in advancing their careers. Here's a perfect opportunity to show Oprah's committment to women having a place in the big boy workplace. In other words this is where push meets shove.
Surprisingly for many Oprah is bowing out of this opportunity in interviewing Sarah Palin for obvious reasons.
Let's see. Obama is black. Sarah is not. Obama champions for Africian causes. Sarah does not. Obama is a Democrat. Sarah is not. Obama's name starts with O. Sarah's does not.
But on the other hand we have a great story in Sarah Palin. She's a woman who for the very first time in the history of this country is standing where a man has always stood. And she does so in a skirt and high heels.
Yet, Oprah is not going to allow her on her show.
In a press statement the President of the FFRW, Linda Ivell, says the decision not to bring Palin on the show until after the election means Oprah is choosing to sit out the greatest political movement of Republican women since suffrage.
This is just another example of the Liberal's control of our media. No wonder many in the country are tuning into Conservative Radio. It's the only way to hear the truth on the other side.
I would say maybe I would boycott Oprah myself, but I rarely watch her anyhow. Years ago she started going wacky on me so I turned her off.
Maybe others should too.
