Oprah Dodged Bullet So Far

Oprah Winfrey's Montecito estate is not in immediate danger, at least so far.Oprah Winfrey
Her 45-acre estate (which is about three miles from the center of the fire) has not been evacuated, but as one person on scene said, "No one in the area is safe." We're told Winfrey is not in Montecito -- she's in Chicago, taping her show. Her peeps at Harpo say, "At this point, Oprah Winfrey's property has not been affected by the fire."

Also, Rob Lowe's estate is safe, so far. There are scores of celebs who live in that area and the fate of their homes is unknown. As one person on scene put it, "When daylight hits, this story is going to get a lot worse."

20. I am so sick of all the attention the African American population is suddenly getting. I am sick of their whining and their endless talk about inequality in America. Obama's bitch once said after her husband nomination that for the first time "she was proud of the USA". WTF did she ever mean? You are telling me that the USA was not fair to the blacks before that?

The USA has always been the greatest country in the world. Its full of opportunities for everyone: whites, blacks, Hispanics, Asians, etc. It is the only one that allow such opportunities. All you need to do is travel around the world so you can compare.

Let me more specific: which country in the world will allow minorities dominate professional sports, the music industries, etc. Look at Oprah and all her accomplishments, got to Washington DC so you can see the all those professional African American living in Mansions....

And the USA is not fair to minorities?

29. Sorry, didn't know I was entering a Red Neck website. My bad, but I'll forward these comments to my fellow more-than-double-digit IQ friends and have a laugh. Thanks!

30. There are no words on earth that can express how sad I felt when i heard that Oprah was not burnt alive inside her house. I can only hope she dies a very very slow painfull death from cancer.
