DFU PRESENTS: Paul Potts Sings THE OPRAH and Palin

[marcxopoco]

You mean Oprah is a RACIST?

Shocking.

[GringaEnMexico]

This vid is pointless.

[momewrathsout]

Oprah knows trailor park trash when shes looking at, now for the first time shes gonna see her phoney fans for what they are. Racist and sitting around waiting for a new car hand out.

[PalinMcCain08]

Doug, Awesome video! Combining the truth with humor goes a long ways. Most right-minded Americans agree that Oprah is protecting her investment, Mr. O. Oprah cannot afford to put Palin on her show. Once American women got to know Sarah, they might like her enough to cast their vote for McCain. In other words, Oprah is just another liberal elitist who loves power more than her country.

[dougfromupland]

Oprah has chosen race over sex. She is so transparent.

[clericimachine]

Oprah can't carry Palin's bra as a woman.

Palin should NEVER lower herself to go on a show hosted by a commie-lib in a shacked up relationship promoting pop-psychological filth.

The Oprah America is the weak ass liberal America where entitlement rules the day. Again, people know a real woman when they see one, and Oprah, with all her acomplishments, ain't that.

Stedman Graham refused to marry her, and Oprah has no children. Like most of the hollywood left, Oprah is a personal failure.

[dougfromupland]

magicstallion - I have never argued that Oprah doesn't have the right to choose the guests she wants. You don't need to put "OWN" in capitals. And she certainly has the right to back a half black candidate because she is black. I would just appreciate her being honest about it. We would understand.

[kittnluver]

This is a very historical year for our country. We will elect either the first woman Vice President or the first black President. Either way, this election will be huge! Oprah should want to have Sarah Palin on her show. Instead, she is being very close-minded. Like many others, I'm very disappointed in Oprah Winfrey. But it's a free country, thanks to those who have fought for it, and because of this freedom, it is up to her who she has on her show. We don't have to watch or buy her mags.

[hbledsoe1979]

Oprah had made millions off middle class white woman, and now she is turning on us for her own race--Whatever--We should do the same. If every white middle class american woman would stop watching her show and buying her magazine, maybe she would get the point, if you can't keep race out of your views than don't have any in the public's eye. I hope she does lose some fans for this one.

[mcknzia]

This is America and it is still a free country. Oprah can have anyone on her show that she wants to.

Personally, I think that it would be a plus to have Sarah Palin on, but that isn't my call. It doesn't matter why Oprah is supporting Obama, she is free to do that. For myself, I am voting for McCain/Palin!

[dougfromupland]

In her public speeches, Oprah has told us she is supporting Obama not because he is black, but because he is brilliant. That is why I included the brilliant clip. She has never before come out so publicly for a candidate and has certainly not joined any in major public appearances. It is indeed her show and she is free to have her or not have her. She is not having Sarah on because she supports Obama. That's fine --- just admit she supports him because he is black.

[NAlston1]

I think that you all are racist and ignorant idiots. Barack Obama has not been on Oprah's show since October 2006 for his book The Audacity Of Hope! And that was way before he announced he was running for President...That is her show and she can support and have who she wants on her show! She is a BILLIONARE...she doesn't need yall broke asses to support her!!! Get a life already!

[dougfromupland]

I just love the charge of racism. It is so easy to make. And the trite slogan of "get a life" is a little old and mundane, don't you think? Of course she can have on her show whom she wants. She can keep off her show the most newsworthy woman on the planet. But don't tell me she supports Barack because he is brilliant. She supports him because he is black. Admitting it will purge her of demons.

[NAlston1]

I know you do love the charge of racism..because you all are accusing Oprah of being racist, by saying that she chose Barack Obama because he is black. I rest my case and like I said no candidate has been on her show since this election year began. Get the facts straight and stop making yourselves look like idiots. Ellen had Barack Obama on her show and I don't see anyone boycotting her show or is it because she's a lesbian and you conservatives don't think that her show is good enough!!

[dougfromupland]

I'll speak for myself, not others. This is the first candidate for whom Oprah has been speaking at rallies. It is not coincidental that he is black (actually 1/2 black). Does that make her racist? No. Does it have a racial component? Certainly. Conservatives are the ones who look to the individual, to character, and to ideas. We do not care about race, gender, or class. Because of her public support of Obama, Oprah is caught in a tough situation.

[dougfromupland]

NOTE TO ALL: I really don't want profanity on this thread. It will be removed. And, please. Oprah is not someone who hates Whitey. She is a decent person who is just very wrong about Barack Obama. She refuses to look beyond race at what a totally unqualified person he is to lead this nation. The man should be a community organizer --- not our commander in chief.

[sheraw99]

How dare you say that when we have a bunch of absent minded women backing Palin simply because she is a woman? Oprah is 100% right!

[dougfromupland]

sheraw99 - How dare I? Yes, there are women who will vote for Palin because she is a woman. Oprah is voting for Obama because he is black like her. She should simply stop lying to us and admit the truth. I disagree with her, because I vote without consideration of race and sex, but it is okay for her to vote for a black person because he is black. Irish Catholics voted for JFK because he was Irish Catholic.

[phlake2o2]

it you stoop so low to see things this way, then you should be pointing the finger at yourself. You don't vote the issues hon. be honest you are one of the people who prefer this country to be in the dark ages where one is more superior than the other. Oprah is voting the issues and she wants change not the same people that ran this country in to dirt and blood shed for the last 8 yrs.

[dougfromupland]

Your name is fitting. You on the left have no concept of what it is like to have convictions and values. Hey, historical genius, we became a country in 1776, not the Dark Ages. I believe in the Constitution. Race, sex, and class mean nothing to me. Individuals and liberty mean everything. You see race and group and make a judgment. That tells me nothing about the individual. We are ready for a black president, but not Obama. He is an empty suit. The Dems are playing a joke on America.

[AlecBaldwin666]

Oprah for the first time backs a candidate.

Surprise, it's the first BLACK man running for President and NOBODY before seemed worthy.

She lost 50% of her audiance with that move.

[kerryfosterusa]

OPRAH hates WHITEY !

OPRAH hates WHITEY !

OPRAH hates WHITEY !

OPRAH hates WHITEY !

[dougfromupland]

No, she doesn't hate whitey. She has a decent heart. But in this case, she needs to be honest. She is for Obama because he is black.  To say otherwise is a lie.

[burlpen89]

Oprah is a racist The black Archie Bunker

[dougfromupland]

I am not going to make that accusation.  I don't agree, but I do understand why many blacks want a black president --- we have never had one. When Oprah says it is not because he is black, I don't believe her. Just admit it.

[sheraw99]

Obama being black is just one of the many reasons people support him, yes him being black has given him a boost but at the same time he has lost MANY votes just because he is black!

[dougfromupland]

White liberal guilt will give him far more votes than those bigots who won't vote for a black candidate. Far more. I would vote for an entire Congress of black men if they all had the values and positions of Larry Elder.

[vlado7777]

i hear 2pac but paul potts is cool :D

[ItsHillary4Me]

Oprah's a cow.

[Paynepower]

One sided Oprah. I thought she would want equal rights. Oprahs agenda exposed

(lib or rascist)

[KCSteak]

Harpo is a harpo, she should be silent.

[blicksflicks]

Oprah is sunk! She did it to herself. She should have never involved herself in politics because of her "precious messiah." I grew up watching Oprah, and people always told me she was a Christian. I wanted to believe that was true, but now... she's totally lost respect in front of the entire world. Look at this man tearing her to shreds. Color goes both ways. Oprah might as well rename her show "The Obama Show."

[blicksflicks]

Man, that dude just told it like is! Screw Obama! McCain - Palin '08!

[davidrobinsonmagic]

If Oprah doesn't invite Sarah on her show then it will anger over half of her audience, to degrees that will really hurt Oprah's career. I would loose my respect for her.

I don't even mind if Obama goes back on her show again. She supports Obama and thats fine but she should do the right thing with Sarah. Sarah is an American womans dream story. Plus the possible 1st woman VP giving birth to a special needs child, knowingly. I thought that was what Oprahs show was all about.

[HoldTheProfanityFool]

Get this. Her written statement includes the following sentence: "There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show."

People, do YOU believe that? What a liar.

[dougfromupland]

I don't believe her. Over 37 million people saw Sarah's speech, and we are to believe that THE OPRAH and her staff never even discussed the possibility? THE OPRAH has painted herself into a corner and doesn't know quite what to do. For her, race trumps gender. I understand that blacks in this country want to see the first black president. I understand that they will be voting for the empty suit Obama because he is black. Unfortunately, they refuse to admit it.

[bballajuice35]

Go to hell

[dougfromupland]

Well, Ashley, that was a well thought out response. Maybe THE OPRAH should be saying that you are brilliant.  Well done.
