OPRAH BALKS AT HOSTING SARAH PALIN; STAFF DIVIDED
2008-09-05
Oprah Winfrey may have introduced Democrat Barack Obama to the women of America -- but the talkshow queen is not rushing to embrace the first woman on a Republican presidential ticket!
Is it the "R" word? or, the "r" word"?
Oprah's staff is sharply divided on the merits of booking Sarah Palin, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.
Some of the staff are interested in the dialogue while Okra and others are interested in the demagogue.
"Half of her staff really wants Sarah Palin on," an insider explains. "Oprah's website is getting tons of requests to put her on, but Oprah and a couple of her top people are adamantly against it because of Obama."
Remember that Okra fans. She is a shill for the Left. Remember what her money and star-power buy and support.
One executive close to Winfrey is warning any Palin ban could ignite a dramatic backlash!

It is not clear if Oprah has softened her position after watching Palin's historic convention speech.

Last year, Winfrey blocked an appearance by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, timed to a promotional tour of his autobiography.
Oh...it's the "R" with Justice Thomas.
Oprah and executive producer Sheri Salata, who has contributed thousands of dollars to Obama's campaign, refused requests for comment.
Regardless if it is "R-ism" or "r-ism", it goes to show one thing: If you think Okra is some sort of hero, you are foolish. She disdains Conservatives, and what we stand for. The only thing she wants from Conservatives is their money...which spends like everyone elses.
Update on Drudge: Oprah sez it ain't true, no decision has been made, and that she'd definitely love to interview Palin -- after the election. I agree: interviewing a sitting Vice-President would be quite a coup.
