I love Democrats, their awesome.
Oprah: "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."
However, Barack Obama has been on "Oprah" twice -- in January, 2005 and again in October, 2006 -- before he announced his run for Prez.
I love you guys are so scared of Palin. I love it.

I love you guys are so scared of Palin. I love it.Does the fact that Palin is not giving ANY interviews come into this at all?
Oprah is putting her celebrity behind the Democrats, but is not using her TV show to do it. Thats pretty responsible and a fair move. I doubt many Republicans would take time from clubbing baby seals to watch Oprah anyway.
Biased would be Fox only shouting down Democrats in an interview.

RE: "You democrats" Yes, I recall the meeting where we all got together and decided that Oprah shouldn't do that. There was a lot of back and forth, but in the end it was decided (by acclamation and a group hug) that that Barak was not "guest" on Oprah's show--that in fact Oprah and her audience were guest in his magnificent presence.
Oh, and Oprah said to tell you that she is not waiting until December because of the election. She said it would take that long to make Palin feel comfortable by Scotch Guarding the couch.

How many times has McCain appeared on Oprah? I am guessing he has been on at least once in his 35 years in the Senate.
Eitherway, why are the GOP shielding Palin from the media? All the media are getting are press statements, and public speeches ... no one on one interviews. No questions are being asked directly.
Sorry - lunch time. I need to go dress a deer first. Looking forward to bambi on baguette ...

Hardly before anyone knew. Because, you know, Oprah would have just randomly had him on her show.... TWICE... for no reason.

I think it's totally biased. Why is Oprah being biased such a shocker?

I've always wanted to try deer. Never had it though.Venison is great ... but like any animal, the older it gets the tougher the meat gets, so you need young deer for it to be good.
(BTW - no venison for lunch, that was a joke. Its leftover turkey/chicken meatloaf on a hoagie for lunch).

Venison is awesome. I have a deer roast in the freezer I am going to make jerky out of.

Gotta love Tom Cruise.Looks like McCain to me ... but when did he take wardrobe advice from Steve Jobs?
