Oprah to Palin: I Can Pencil You In Later

Posted Sep 5th 2008 1:41PM by TMZ Staff

Oprah has issued a statement to TMZ -- she won't put Sarah Palin on her show until after the election.

Here's the statement: "The item in today's Drudge Report is categorically untrue. There has been absolutely no discussion about having Sarah Palin on my show. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates. I agree that Sarah Palin would be a fantastic interview, and I would love to have her on after the campaign is over."

For the record, Barack Obama has been on "Oprah" twice -- in January, 2005 and again in October, 2006 -- before he announced his run for Prez.

5. It is because Oprah is racist. She does not like white people. She also thinks she is God. I used to like her, but I cannot stand this person now, and that has been for the last few years, before the political crap. Bitch!

7. You know Tyra Banks ass had Obama and Mike Huckabee on her show and I believe that that was very fair of her to do.

Oprah should take note. Half ther people who watch her show are old white hoes anyway!

8. Who cares.......Obama is the new Messiah (Jesus Christ) of Oprah's new religion
that she espouses.....We need to pray for both her and her 'rable-rouser'........

9. Oprah is a pitchman. Nothing more nothing less. She is is not an investigative reporter, a nutritionist, a leader of anything nor responsible to anyone. Her viewers forget this, but she is nothing more than an hour longer advertisement for whatever she thinks will bring in the most money.

13. At the beginning of this Presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a platform for any of the candidates.

Ummmmm.........doesn't taking a stance in support of a candidate make your show a platform?
