Oprah's Got a Crush on Obama!

Oprah has a crush on ObamaChat empress Oprah Winfrey put rumors to rest that she might be running for president -- by instead throwing her hefty support behind democratic candidate Barack Obama. Lucky Obama will benefit from an Oprah-fied fundraiser to be held at the daytime diva's massive Santa Barbara mansion this September, reports today's L.A. Times.

Those thinking of attending should start saving now: Getting in the door will cost $2,300 -- that's the maximum individual contribution for primary season. Collected contributions of $25,000 or more will score you access to a VIP reception, and a donation of $50,000 or more will garner a seat at a private VIP dinner with the possible next president.

Think Isaiah Washington, who has also thrown his support behind Barack, was invited? Doubtful!

NOW I'm really impressed.... NOT!!!! I said Islamic EXTREMISTS, YOU dimwit, I did not say all Muslims, or in your case your Turkish husband and daughter. Me thinks thou doth protest too much!!! Do you deny there is a faction of Muslims, constantly in the news, that would love nothing better than to bring this country down in whatever way they can? Those are the people I am speaking of. And how the hell do you know what I have and have not received? You know nothing at all about what kind of person I am, nor can you look down your snobby assed nose at me or anyone else, education or not. I'm glad you've succeeded in America, the greatest country on this earth and can afford to clothe your family in Gucci, Chanel, etc., but lady, you still have to wipe your ass like everybody else in the world. Of course you can spend your money like you choose. Who said you couldn't? I don't care what you do with it, nor do I care to even try to guess what cute comment you left me in whatever damn language that was. Don't care!!! Don't give a damn!!! What I do care about is my own children and what kind of world they're going to grow up in. We speak English in my home, and that's the way we damn well like it!!!!!

152. Throw a little, yada, yada.. Every time you go off on a tangent brings a smile to my face. Your tirades are hysterical, more please, I could really use another good laugh.
Point made, Point proven... (:

154. Obama, by accepting help from bling queen Oprah and her entourage of rappers ang gangstahs has just doomed Obama. She has turned him from a Presidential Candidate to an African American candidate. He is doomed.

155. Oprah has a crush on ANYONE who isn't Stedman!! She most obvious, annoying flirt I have ever seen in my life and I am so over 'The World According to Oprah' ...puke

156. People always want to turn stuff into a race issue. Just go out and vote for whoever you think is going to run this country best (whoever wins - it's not like they'll have much to work with anyway). What gets me - is having to pay to hangout out with any of the presidential contenders. Everybody running has a hell of a lot more money than most of us posting online, and they think we (the majority of the people who actually vote) can dish out such large wads of cash. Oh please! These people should be paying to hang out with us. Obama is going to hang with Oprah and the other rich folks, but I have the chicken wings and cheese puffs right here. BYOB - Only $2.00 a head - please bring your own paper plates. :)

158. I am pretty sure that she is very proud and excited that a black man is running for president. She most likely feels she wouldn't miss being apart such an exciting moment in history. Now whether or not she thinks he is attractive and witty is something else. A lot of people probably think he is charming they probably aren't trying to steal him from his wife either.

159. Is is really any wonder why anyone can have the kind of admiration for Obama? Black or white, he is the kind of individual/leader our country needs. Ophrah is just responding to what most of us are feeling inside. If only we can all take the BLINDERS off.

160. Just a small reminder, Obama is not Black, nor White, he is Bi-Racial.

161. I agree with Ready for 08 except that Oprah won’t have a towel on her head, her bloody head will be in it. The muslims hate Christians and if he is elected, unless you convert it will be off with your head. Jesus said "They will hate you because you love Me", well it doesn't take a genius to figure out who "They" are.

162. Obama rocks! He is a genuine man who has what we need to unite this Country, he has hope, tenacity, and strength! I am so glad that Oprah is behind Barack because she is also a beautiful person who can help him win!

163. OPRAH DOESN'T HAVE THE SUPPORT OF PEOPLE'S MORAL ISSUE ON WHO TO VOTE FOR. I CERTAINLY WON'T BE VOTING FOR OBAMA. THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES IS TOO IMPORTANT TO LET IT GET INTO HANDS OF A NOVICE.

GROW UP OBAMA - WAIT 30 YEARS THEN COME BACK TO US.

164. i wonder if backing a loser will hurt her career.

165. Shame on you Oprah! You lied to say you would never get involved in politics! you shouldn't have done so, I and my friends were going to vote for him but are withholding our votes since he has the advantage of your support. we will now vote for Clinton. They say every vote counts but I know better, ie Florida, I am truley disappointed in you.
