Oprah Bans Palin

No Support For This Woman

Published on September 13, 2008 By KFC Kickin For Christ In Current Events

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.

OK. Yes. So what's the problem? It's ok to boycott for hypocrisy but not boycott because I wish my money to be better spent?

No problem, you were the one that couldn't see the differences in your boycotts.

When they were approached they responded with a reply that Christians were hate mongers and homophobic.

I don't see that anywhere in your article.

From BAM article:

This boycott is not about hiring gays or how gay employees are treated. It is about McDonald's choosing to put the full weight of their corporation behind promoting their agenda.

Note the bolding was YOUR emphasis.

IF and a BIG IF this was truly your issue (which now you say it was the 'attitude') then you would be inclined to boycott your precious coke which gives MORE to promote the agenda you are against. Yet you seem fine drinking your cokes. All I am asking is why and pointing out the inconsistencies.

Why are you so persistent with the whole Micky D's Boycott? Obviously you disagree?

See KFC, this is the problem. The issue isn't about Mickey D's. It's more about your reasoning!

Knowing what you know about Coca-Cola why aren't you boycotting them too?

Ok, let's look at how you're twisting things a bit AD shall we? You said first:

[quote]There is a fundamental difference of presenting the information as you did in this article about Oprah.[quote]

To which I responded:

[quote]I'm not sure exactly what you mean that I presented a diff case with Oprah than McDonalds. [quote]

To which you replied:

[quote]No problem, you were the one that couldn't see the differences in your boycotts. [quote]

Do you see what you left out? Is the problem with the boycotts or the way I presented them AD?

Again I'll repeat:

I'm not sure exactly what you mean that I presented a diff case with Oprah than McDonalds.

I put down both (presented) as a current event. Neither one did I beg anyone to participate or even join me in doing this. For me, in both cases, it wasn't much of a boycott. I just presented the current event in both cases to inform. That's it.

This was also part of my original post.

In response to the boycott, McDonald's spokesman Bill Whitman suggested to the Washington Post that those who oppose SSM are motivated by hate, saying "...hatred has no place in our culture." McDonald's has decided to adopt the "hate" theme used by gay activist groups for years.

That's not what you said.

This is quoted from Reply #165 from KFC on Boycott McDonalds.

So Coke and Pepsi also are pro homosexual marriage ammendment? That would bother me more than the restaurants because we don't eat out that much but do like our cokes!

Unless you call Pepsi cokes?

Geesh AD. You are dogging me! I Absolutely think so now. I said that when? Not here.

You don't believe anything I say. Why?

That was THEN this is NOW.

Didn't you get it when I said?

I am. And you forgot BEST BUY.

I didn't hear about the Coke and Best Buy connection until you gave me that link way back when.

Unless you call Pepsi cokes?

I bought both prior not having a particular favorite (yes, I call them both cola or cokes), now I only buy Pepsi.
