Oprah Lords Over White Folk, Talks Poop on XM

1. Look. In no way am I racist, i love African Americans. But i can't stand how Oprah ALWAYS plays the race card, or has to talk about white people this and that. No one cares. It's like the hermes incident. She said it was because she was Black. No dumbass is going to turn Oprah down because she is black. The store was closed, she was just trying to be a princess. Get over the race card, because its really old.

2. Yikes what a racist statement that she has almost all white people working for her. Let's fast forward a couple hundred years Oprah. There is no one race that hasn't been persecuted in history and your statements don't reflect the change towards the positive but keeps those closed minded people in the past. I prefer to think of people as people not by the color of there skin.

3. It's amazing how one of the most powerful woman in the U.S. surrounds herself with whites. She must have chosen intelligence over race.

4. GEEZ! Oprah has really gotten a big head and become just a wee bit racist...who would have known. What an ugly person she has become and that's why I've boycotted watching her show or anything to do with her because of her horrible attitude.

5. Oprah (and where in the hell did she ever get THAT name?) figures that with her billions, she can say or do anything she damn well pleases, and the stupid public will eat it up. I, personally, always found her thoroughly UNenchanting. In fact, at times she's so goddamn saccharine that I, a diabetic, watching her could go into insulin shock. About the best I can say for her is that she's light years away from the repulsive likes of Star Jones, But then, so is everyone else, black, white, or in combination. And as for her being a dyke, who cares? Far as I'm concerned, if she likes eating mocha p***y puddding, she's entitled.

6. I find Oprah's comments completely offensive and I find the people that worship her like she is some kind of God completely brain washed. First of all there is no other way to take the comment that she now has only white people working for her other than what it is racist. Secondly those that worship Oprah because they think she does so much good have you really researched where and how she gets the things she gives away can you say free publicity. Third and last, I find those that feel Oprah is one of the regular people as she always so kindly puts it- did her season premier show not show you that she could not function in society with out those "white" people helping her do things such as pump gas. I think this whole country needs to re evaluate this whole Oprah thing, because I am really starting to think people are getting brainwashed by her. It truly scares me, that this is the type of person we are looking up to. What ever happened to doing something for someone because you want to not just so you can talk about it on your show.

7. I love how it's OK for black people to make racist comments against whites, but if we do it, we're in the KKK. Talk about double standards. I'm really tired of hearing blacks whine about inequality. How many hundreds of years more do whites have to "pay retribution" for slavery, when most of our families came to this country after the abolition? Quit yer bitchin' and DO SOMETHING about your situation- whining and finger pointing doesn't count.

8. Watch out Stedman, she is going to trade you in for Brad Pitt (I forgot, Tom Cruise is her man). Since he is white, she is going to "Buy" her a whittie to cruise around with, her Gaypal (I meant Galpal, Gail) is keeping up a great front for her while she shops for a new man. The Reverend Oprah won't have much longer in the untouchable spotlight will she: Martha? Mel? DOnald? Janet? Think a few years back at baseball player John Rocker, his remarks were not even close to Oprah's and he has been vilified for the rest of his life and he had talent, she has a racist mouth and billions to buy positive press. For all those folks that wanted her to have a child? DO you want another little Oprah around? Think Not.

9. Racist, full-of-yourself, fake, soapbox bitch!!! You may be rich, but you can't buy class or good looks, can you girl? You're still trash!

10. If she could impregnate Gayle and make her deal with the poop, perhaps Miss Orca - er, Oprah - wouldn't be so averse to the notion of little Oprettes running around the house.

11. I remember years ago when Oprah 's shows were panel discussions on a certain topic. The topic one day was "Whites who will only date black women, and Blacks who will only date white women." She was very agreeable to the white men who would only date blacks, but she came down like a lead balloon on the black men who would only date whites, and was very rude and judgmental with her comments. It's too bad that Oprah needs to call it a "racial incident" when people don't grovel at her feet. Yeah to Hermes in France -- when the store is closed and you just show up (don't call first to see if it's ok) the store stays closed, according to Oprah, it was a racial incident. Another example of how money doesn't buy class.

14. Did you actually listen to the entire comment? or did you read what these racist pigs disected and angled for your stupid consumption? You - can't even think for yourselves! And you have the nerve to talk about Oprah's followers - (rolling eyes)

Oprah is discussing what her grandma said to her when she was a child. Oprah's grandma worked for some "nice white folks" back in the 1940s & 50s. Back then there were Jim Crow segretated laws. (Please pick up a book and read) Her grandma's only wish was for Orprah to work for some good ole white folks.

Sometimes race is relevant when discussing where things were v. where things are!

Stop acting like you don't play the race card - you do. Any time a black person is mentioned on TMZ ALMOST ALL OF THE COMMENTS ARE LITTERED WITH RACIAL SlURS. FuKKKing hypoKKKrits!

15. I am so tired of her showing off. All she cares about is material things and all the famous people she is "friends" with. She always plays the race card. She doesn't like people who are white. She never has. She always says smart things about the white race. She thinks she is better than everyone. I never watch her because she is fake.
