Oprah on the Palin Rumors

Talk show queen Oprah Winfrey is setting the record straight regarding rumors that Sarah Palin wasn't invited as a guest on her talk show.

"I said I would be happy to talk to Sarah Palin when the election was over," Oprah reveals to "Extra." "I went and tried to talk to Sarah Palin and instead she talked to Greta Van Susteren. She talked to Matt Lauer. She talked to Larry King, but she didn't talk to me. But maybe she'll talk to me now that she has a book deal."

Lady O's couches are always ready for President-elect Barack Obama and wife Michelle. "There's always an open invitation for the President-elect and First Lady."

Winfrey served as an honorary chair at Alvin Ailey's Dance Theatre's 50th anniversary celebration -- and kidded with "Extra" about having two left feet! "In my wildest, wildest, crazy, crazy dreams, I am a dancer," O joked. "When I've like had too many tequila shots and I go to sleep, I dream of being a dancer."

Things took a serious turn when Oprah opened up about the wildfires that devastated homes in Santa Barbara also threatened to take her Montecito home. Winfrey was evacuated -- and told "Extra" she grabbed a book of letters from Alicia Keys, Mariah Carey and the ladies that attended her Legends Ball. "So when the fires were coming and the flames were a blowin', I said, 'Get my letters!'"

Charlene don’t speak for me. I had no problem voting for Sarah Palen. She’s a feminist, has a family and walks the walk. The liberal feminists would love her if oh yeah she believed in killing unborn babies.

Screw Oprah. She wanted Obama as President because he’s black so she refused to have Palin on before the election. I think it’s time American women said the hell wih these big mouth egotistical Hollywood types like Oprah and the hags on “The View”. Sarah wold be smart to stay away from all of them. My grandma would say when you roll around in the mud with pigs you jus make te pigs look good. :)

Yes, Darlene I bet you were a virgin when you married too!!! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! So go ahead cast that first stone. As far as Oprah goes…haven’t watched her in years. She’s not worth the white hating, black slobbering energy it takes to reach for the remote.

I agree with Sarah 100% I would not dawn the Oprah doors so that she can make more more money. Tell Oprah stick with her boy Obama. She is as trashy as he is. I can not believe you idiots allowed a person such as Oprah to decide who the president should be. I can not believe there are woman left in her audience since she obviously supports men then women. OR is it because he is black. It is not because he is better. SO black or men which is it. You all will regret this move. Just wait…… I am waiting for him to throw Hillary under the bus. She took this position and thanks to Obama she will be unemployed as soon as he throws her under the bus. I do not like either Obama or Oprah. I AM A DEMOCRAT WHO VOTED AGAINST HIM

I don’t watch Oprah because she is black, fat, and stupid. Her audience consists of uneducated, depressed women who cry into their bowls of ice cream at night.

Oprah chose to pass on Sarah during the campaign, so I hope Sarah continues to return the favor and continue her post-election pass on Oprah. Since Sarah is now the hottest interview to be had, she doesn’t need Oprah. Oprah made her bed. Sarah, let her sleep in it. Go Sarah!

How Oprah became the idol of the American Woman is beyond me. It was disgusting when all the women abandoned Hilary for a nobody like Obama; Hillary worked all life to serve people, Obama has done nothing useful, and will do nothing useful in the White House

And the jealousy women have against Palin is appalling. It’s like she’s “the other woman”, the claws really came when she was chosen. THe behavior of women in this election shows how petty insecure they are. It will be decades before a woman is elected president in this county.

Yeah, I sure wouldn’t go on that
liberal idiot’s show if I were Sarah.
Oprah is just whining because she’s just
so used to getting her way. And now,
someone finally has the guts to stand up to her! Go, Sarah!

Personnally, I don’t watch much of Oprah, I’m just glad that we are getting someone in the white house with a brain and who was the best candidate to get us out of the Bush legacy and the the terrible way he left this country because of his irresponsible behavior. I can’t wait for Obama to get in the white house and show all of you ignorant people up.

Oprah doesn’t need Sarah (Sarah still needs Oprah. Its clear she wasn’t McCains first choice, or even his fifth, so lets come together, put her name with the other past vise-presidential hopefuls who lost, move on to other things, ps- Don’t be so hard on her daughter for getting pregnant a few months before the wedding, remember Sarah did the same thing and she went on to be the governor of a state.

Although I have nothing against her, Most white women couldn’t vote for Sarah because they didn’t agree with her views and because they were not willing to entrust their country and families to her based on what they saw during a few short weeks. Blame those who sprung her on us at the last minute, if you must fix blame. Women exercised their brains and voted based on a variety of issues not just gender. Oprah was fair and true to her word, so I have nothing but praise for her.

I hope Sarah Palin never goes on the Oprah show. Oprah is a a two faced white hater. She runs her show saying that she empowers women. What a load of crap! She endorsed the black man. The first person she ever endorsed for President and it was Obama over Hillary. Black over white. I don’t care how much money she has,it only means she is a rich, low life liar. I hope her show goes down in flames. I can’t understand those women who watch her. No pride, thats for sure.

Babba WaaWaa who said she thought he was SEXY?? Really, no surprise there.
As to Oprah.. I will never watch her again, and haven’t for the past year or so.
And to you who say we are bigots since we didn’t support Obama. Shame on you, my husband who is black and a Republican voted for McCain. Are you calling my husband a bigot.. Only idiot Dem’s do that.

Why in the world would Gov. Palin help Oprah make a buck when Oprah gave Obama free airtime, but, refused Gov. Palin equal time?
