Where's all this "Oprah Supported Bush" coming from?

[Nailzberg]

I don't remember that at all. I remember Bush being a guest on her show. I also remember Gore was a guest on her show. Did I miss something in 2000? DId she make an endorsement when I was out of the country? I'm serious. I'd like to know.

1. There were Kerry shot a kid in the back posts

here in 2003 too. It's funny that the same people who don't understand the change Obama is talking about are the exact ones who need to do some changing.

2. You said it yourself.

Gore and Bush were guests on her show. She gave them equal treatment. Now, supposedly the difference between Obama and Hillary is so great, Oprah has to speak up. But what about the difference between Gore and Bush? Oprah let the little man kiss her on TV. It was disgusting.

5. if that kiss was the picture that was posted earlier tonight

it looked like she was going to throw up...well it looked like she was offended by being touched by this rube from texas

[Nailzberg]

6. I don't think that she feels the difference is that great.

She knows him personally, so she decided to get involved in this race.

A lot of her celebrity guests get a hug or a kiss, she's Oprah. I still don't see how this equates support for Bush.

9. It equates to lack of support for Dems.

If Oprah's position is either Obama or she doesn't care who wins, then Oprah can take a long walk on a short dock. She never felt compelled to take a position against Junior in 2000 or even 2004.

[Nailzberg]

12. I'm sure she cares who wins.

Doesn't mean she has to tell you who she's hoping for if she doesn't want to.

13. That's right.

And I can think she is not committed to anti-Republicanism. And I do.

So far she doesn't know the meaning of the word guts. She has only backed someone, supposedly, out of personal belief. She can't suffer politically for that. She even went out of her way to say she has voted Republican in the past.

Big. Big. Mistake.

Maybe she did vote Republican. But the time to say it is not when it provides her personal cover with her audience of nitwits. I don't take endorsements from people who still think Republican neocons might deserve any power whatsoever after what they have done to our country and world.

3. In 2000

she had Gore then Bush on her show. Some assholes are focusing on her having Bush on her show makes her a Bush supporter. They leave out the fact that Gore was on also. If is an embarrassing Repuke tactic so take names and know they are disingenuous assholes.

4. yup.. that`s a new talking point here at du

oprah sealed the deal for bush because it`s the "power of the oprah"! "fear the oprah"! if i remember correctly gore won the election in 2000 but facts like that are over looked by the oprah-obama detractors

[rufus dog]

11. Don't down play the message from the assholes!

Oprah is supporting Obama, Oprah supported Bush in 2000, hence Oprah, Bush and Obama suck. Reality - Oprah had Bush and Gore on her show in 2000. NO SUPPORT EVER GIVEN TO BUSH! Oprah supports Obama in 2008.

LYING PIECES OF SHIT ARE USING ROVIAN TACICS TO TRY TO GET YOU TO DESPISE OBAMA. Lesson, run like fucking hell from who these people are supporting becuase the use the same FUCKING SHAMEFULL TACTICS THAT BUSHCO uses.

7. You missed nothing but spin.

And your recollection is quite accurate.

8. I'm getting pretty annoyed with it all

I don't know if there are a whole lot of folk Jealous of Ms Winfrey or what, but it's mighty tiresome seeing all the bad mouthing her.

10. It's a desperate move by those who are feeling the heat of Obama's surge.
