Oprah Is Boycotted After Refusing Palin Interview

To "dappy dappy" the same holds true for Sarah Palin and John McCain. They've been much less forthcoming about their plans if elected. Too busy Barak bashing who knows what they will do? We really won't know the total truth until after the election!

Oprah Is Boycotted After Refusing Palin Interview

Lord, what is the problem?! It's her show...sounds simple enough for me. I think people just love to have something to gripe about. She doesn't want the woman on her show at this time. Why is that so hard for some to understand?

not all of us care if oprah invites palin to her show - not all of us watch oprah - and we will still vote for palin on 11/4.

many of us have seen oprah on the news telling us that barack is "the one" - we have to wonder one what however. if he is elected we may all have to find out - and it may be must more enlighteneing than we have been privy to so far.

Oprah Is Boycotted After Refusing Palin Interview

Hi,I think oprah has the right as a citzen to say who she wants on her show.Its funny to me that america hasn't changed a bit when it comes to racism.sarah palin during her public speeches condumes racial remarks that comes from her supporter and this is a lady that wants to appear on a black sucessful womans show.I think america should wake up.John Mccain came to our town during martin luther kings birthday in memphis,tn .and the only good thing he could say was at one time he was for jim crow laws. so if you where for jim crow laws then what makes him so different now.mccain is not for change and americas scared that obama is going to be for all blacks and thats not fair.obama is for change for all americans but they don't think he can do the job because they think all black people are deceitful,don't wanna work,and are lazy but all black people are not the same and thats what america needs to realize times have changed THAT'S WHY IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE.

Oprah Is Boycotted After Refusing Palin Interview I have never been much of an Oprah fan, but I am now.

Why must She devote Her time, money and resources to promote a person she is totally opposed to?

She is not a political talk host. She is Oprah. Thank You Very Much.
