Oprah Faces Boycott After Palin Statement

Oprah Faces Boycott After Palin Statement

Uh oh, don't these women know you don't want to piss off the O? Guess not, because the Florida Federation of Republican Women is boycotting Oprah's show because of her statment last week about potentialyl interviewing Sarah Palin that caused a bit of a stir. What'd she say?

 

"When I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over."

 

Hmm, and what does the Republican ladies have to say to that?

 

"It was just a defining moment for particularly Republican women but, quite honestly, women in general and when we found out Oprah wouldn't interview her," said FFRW President Linda Ivell. "It just seemed so odd."

 

Yeah, I guess it's odd, but not really any more since Sarah Palin isn't being interviewed by anyone. Well, except Charlie Gibson later this week, but I'm guessing he won't be asking her about her favorite color to wear while wolf sniping or her secret oatmeal/moose cookie recipe. Although if she did go on Oprah, maybe she'd have a Tom Cruise flip out moment and jump on the couch screaming "I LOVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENTS BANNING ABORTION!" and then people would stop liking her so much. 

 

On a related note, I ordered my Sarah Palin action figure. It should be here shortly.

If McCain or MaCain (however you say it) had a male running mate and the male running mate wanted to be on the Oprah show and Oprah said "no" because of her previous reasons then we would not be having this issue. Oprah had that rule before we even knew who was going to be the democratic or republican runners let alone VP runners. Above all else we have know Oprah and her character for DECADES! None of these women ever heard of Palin before now. I am sure Palin is a great woman and I am happy for her. But lets not let her fame shame the person who have already left a mark in this world who opened up a school in Africa? Who made peoples dreams come true? who built homes for the homeless in New Orleans? Who introduced us to Nate and Dr Phil? YOU UNFAITHFUL PEOPLE! how quickly you turn your backs as soon as someone smiles in your face. Go ahead boycott now maybe Oprah's line will clear up and I can get some tickets!!! Because contrary to popular belief Oprah aint goin nowhere! for everyone of you Oprah boycotters there is one million Oprah supporters. This really is not an attack on Oprah this is you lashing out because you are soooooooooo intimidated by the Obama-nator...................good luck :-) Posted 09/11/2008 03:44 AMReply

**** Failing Palin ! Why should she be on O's show? Because she is a woman? I don't think so. I am a woman and it is amazing to me how these woman are outraged because O wouldn't have Palin on show. Instead they should be outraged at how Palin is against a womans right to choose; a bad choice given her own family problems. She is anti-gun control, she's a liar (see bridge to no-where) and she is clue less on foreign policy and the problems that many americans face today (healthcare and foreclosure). Sarah Palin is a joke !
I say good for Oprah. Stand your ground.

Palin supporters are pathetic! They are okay with Palin refusing to be interviewed by the press, but they are forcing Oprah to interview her!

This is a political election, not some popularity contest. She belongs at Meet the Press, not Oprah!Get your effin priorities straight!

And you are saying that Palin IS for the advancement of women? The same Mayor of Wasilla that turned her back on her city's law that bills a rape victim for the rape kit used to investigate the crime? Stop questioning Oprah's decision, and start question why you're backing Palin!

Frankly, Palin no longer needs Oprah. Is there any person in the Western world who doesn't know who Palin is? Is there any media who wouldn't love to have the most talked about woman of the century on their media? Posted 09/13/2008 04:41 AMReply
