Multi-billionaire Oprah
Winfrey, after her surreal $38,000 handbag “racism” encounter in Switzerland,
has just weighed in again on race and the presidency, as yet the nth way of hyping her new film: “There’s a level of disrespect for the office that
occurs. And that occurs in some cases and maybe even many cases because he’s
African American. There’s no question about that and it’s the kind of thing
nobody ever says but everybody’s thinking it.”
Nobody ever says? Has she
read a newspaper columnist or turned on MSNBC lately?
Aside from her historical
ignorance, Oprah Winfrey has increasingly turned to the race card to explain
the president’s plummeting polls. In her race-obsessed world, Syria, Benghazi,
the NSA, IRS, AP, and ACA messes do not explain why a reelected president
crashes from a recent 60 percent approval rating to less than 40 percent in
less than a year……Oprah has no record of
worrying about the level of disrespect shown the office…….when her president [Bush]
was routinely being compared to a Nazi…… she said nothing then, but now says a
lot, explains not America’s problem with race, but her own race obsessions,
which have blinded her to her own prejudices and hypocrisies.
I don’t recall Oprah objecting
when Bush was routinely shouted down. Did she deplore Al Gore calling the Bush
team “digital brownshirts”? Or maybe John Glenn invoking the Nazis (“It’s the
old Hitler business”) to talk about her president…..To Read More….
