Oprah Proves It: Liberals Are Liberals First, Above All Else
In taking a firm stand not to put Sarah Palin on her show, Oprah just threw the “two” in “the ol’ one-two” punch to her credibility:
Punch One: Oprah declined to have Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas on her show. The first (edit: okay, second - sorry) black Supreme Court Justice in our nation’s history. He’s a conservative. A Republican appointee. Oprah decided she was a liberal before a black person.
Punch Two: Oprah declined to have VP candidate Sarah Palin on her show. Not the first female VP candidate, mind you, but by far the most popular...a regular superstar, if you will. She’s a conservative. A Republican candidate. Oprah decided she was a liberal before a woman.
For a bunch that needs to “group-ify” everybody into factions in order to appropriately pander to, and make victims of, everyone they see...Oprah has just shown that her allegiance belongs to neither of the two most prominent demographics to which she belongs: black Americans and women.
Oh, there IS one group which Oprah belongs to that she’s not afraid to put on her show: liberal millionaires. The list of them appearing on her show is quite long, and includes such prominent members as Barack Obama. So much for “the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates” eh?
