....Boy ...they really really think we are stupid!
They forget that Palin CANNOT AND WILL NOT talk with anyone anyway. Just because she's a woman Oprah is supposed to want her on her show? Why don't they boycott The View, Ellen, and another woman with a TV show. They all can fuck off....they really think everybody is stupid!




From CNN's Emily Sherman


Oprah Winfrey campaigned for Obama in February.
(CNN)-The Florida Federation of Republican Women made the decision to boycott the Oprah Winfrey Show Saturday, after the media mogul refused to have Gov. Sarah Palin as a guest on her show until after the election wraps up.

"Women in Florida helped build Oprah into the icon she is today," Linda Ivell, President of the FFRW said in a statement. "We are deeply disappointed in Ms. Winfrey's decision to sit out the greatest political moment in the history of women since suffrage."

The talk show host denied accusations Friday, that she was even considering the vice presidential nominee as a guest.

"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 plat for any of the candidates," Winfrey wrote in a statement, responding to a story from The Drudge report claiming her staff was "sharply divided" on whether they should book the Alaska Governor.

Winfrey agreed Palin would be a "fantastic interview," but wouldn't invite her on until after the November elections.

The Florida Federation of Republican Women, the "largest political organization in Florida," celebrating the groups 58 year anniversary is also encouraging members to cancel subscriptions to O Magazine, Ivell said

1. Good for Oprah!
I'm sure losing a few "Republican Women" viewers won't make a micron's worth of difference to her, whether personally or financially. She's always followed her instincts and been true to herself. Why stop now?

2. Suffragettes are rolling in their graves...
"the greatest political moment in the history of women since suffrage"...pardon me while I puke!

The drudge is responsible for this...we now enter the perils-of-pauline phase.
