Oprah Still Putting the O in Obama?

Oprah Winfrey has been more than mum since she first gave Barack Obama her O-stamp of approval in May -- she's been utterly silent, some say because it's bustin' her ratings.

So when we caught up with her BFF Gayle King in New York yesterday, we wondered aloud if she and Oprah had fallen off the Obama-wagon.

16. Why is it a big mistake? How can anyone on this site feel that voting a REPUBLICAN INTO OFFICE is the best choice???
Stop trying to fool yourselves into believing these week excuses you type. Is the "BIG MISTAKE" really voting a black man into office? I can defiantly come to that conclusion with almost every post I've read. Why? Simply every argument given (on why obama should not be president) was racist based and had no true merit. In the first 4 DAMAGING years of Bush's term, did these anti-obama enthusiast not take the opportunity to vote him(Bush) out of office? I feel sorry for everyone who feels he wont do a good a better job than a Republican...I mean come on people gas is going on 5 DOLLARS!!

17. Damn her BeHind is H freaking Huge. Her and Oprah are holding excess fat in all the wrong areas the poor things. Not sure if they've both gone on a manless hungry binge, or its menopause---but they both look terrible, given they are surronded by the best money can buy in the way of personal training, doctoring, health, nutrition and private cooks. Shame on both of them getting that big.

Yeah more chocolate cities---thats the way to go huh...there isnt a person alive right now who would want to live in any of those chocolate cities by choice. Given the choice, they leave. They're dangerous, dirty, poor, polluted, infected, and we and they all know who is to blame. NO more PC crap, start telling it like it is, or end up there your damn self.

18. You're damn right she had better shut her mouth! Oprah pissed off more than 18 MILLION people (who in fact voted for Hillary!). She had better STFU! I won't watch her anymore. She only got into politics because " a black man" was running. She's the biggest racist there is!
I've been a lifelong Democrat but HELL will freeze over before I vote for Nobama. McCain all the way. I can't wait to see everyone's reaction if Nobama wins it, and we'll be worse off than we ever were. He has NO experience. This county is in the CRAPPER, we're in serious trouble, and you want to hand the election to a 'newbie'? Seriously, wtf?

22. I'm so over Oprah, In my eyes she is a has been, a sell-out because of her money and a shallow sense of power. Obama is a nobody. He has no valuable record in the senate. He is a mere puppet being controlled by Oprah as well as the left leaning, liberal media.

23. With the looks of that dress she's poured into here, Gayle King certainly hasn't learned much about a true classic look from her unlimited wealth at the benefit of BFF Oprah.

Actually, I think Mrs. Obama does have a lot more physical class than either Oprah or Gayle with the exception of only three or four times on the campaign trail. One of those times was when she wore that shiny black headband and was without any make-up (while she was preparing to attend a fair with their daughters) and was on schedule to give a speech on the campaign trail. It is important for her to (always) be dressed in classic couture and with some make-up when she appears in public....think she's figuring that out! Also, she has to realize that if she is going to be "First Lady" of the United States of America most people DO NOT want her to be "just one of them" but to set the most positive image possible. I'm old fashioned in that I think it was demeaning for (both) she and Mrs. McCain to go on "The View" though it did give me a chance to compare the two of them as the spouse of the future President. Some of the classiest people are those with potential who socially develop themselves....Mrs. McCain to me is just someone who comes from a lifetime of privileged opportunity but who has no more class than Mrs. Obama who didn't grow-up in a family of privilege (like most of us no matter the color of our skin).

24. reply: 23

There is nothing wrong with being rich. I want to rich someday. Hopefully, we all work hard and want to earn a good wage. Cindy's dad did well and passed his wealth to his daughter. There isn't anything wrong with that. She is a very rich woman who spends her time working on her charities. Michelle Obama went to expensive schools on the government dime, those with better grades and could pay their own way were not accepted so michelle's black skin could go to the head of the line. She doesn't have the CLASS, to even be GRATEFUL. Big chip on her shoulder, make over seems to be working for the time being. She must be fuming!!!

28. I can't believe that there are so many idoits left in the world!! They are truly saying that they will not vote for Obama, because he is black!! Give him a chance to change things!! i really think that he can make a difference!! Like Dr.King said a man should be judge by there character not the color of there skin!! If white America could see past the color of Obama skin they would realize that he has alot to offer the American people!!

29. 16: Stop blaming the gas prices on Bush for goddsake. You want the price of gas to go down, stop driving that SUV that gets 9 MPG.

Supply and Demand. As long as people continue to drive uneconomic vehicles, the price of gas will continue to rise. As long as the Democrats continue to scream about offshore drilling and ANWAR, prices will continue to rise. Actually make an effort to research the numbers that go into oil per barrel and refining to make gasoline, transporting it, etc. THEN research what exactly the course of action is with Obama and gas prices; and if it's something along the lines of 'Suing OPEC' or "Investigating Price gouging give yourself a laugh - since that's only been done 10 times before with no results.

:P
