Why is Oprah interviewing Palin . . . again???

1. Good question. I wonder about Oprah sometimes.
I don't think she's as liberal as she likes to think she is. Giving that asinine airhead a platform is the wrong thing to do.

12. That is a punishing job at the moment! I feel for you--seriously.
Can you take a long bathroom break?

4. Because Oprah has the Redemption Couch.
Supposedly Jay Leno's gonna sit on it soon to remind the audience what a nice guy he really is.

5. Oprah was never worth paying any attention to anyway.

6. I have never watched even one of her shows ever. Palin is a perfect example of why.

7. Oprah forgot to ask her one question
There was a list of pre-approved questions (to weed out the "gotcha" journalism that Oprah is so famous for), and Oprah missed one. They'll spend the hour going over one question, to get the information out that America so breathlessly awaits. It's a momentous opinion, one on which the future of the Republic will no doubt pivot, either to its greatest glory or consigned to the ash heap of history. All of America will be watching as the Queen of Daytime Television sits down with Sarah Palin, to intone the question that is on everyone's mind:

Oprah: So, what's your favorite color?
Sarah: All of them!

I just saved you all one precious hour of your miserable lives. You're welcome.

8. That's easy. Ratings.
Since you are watching and talking about it, I guess it's working.

9. I just saw that and was disgusted BUT I didn't turn the channel
so I guess Oprah was just going for ratings. In Oprah's defense, she did make a few subtle points about Palin and Bristol's hypocrisy.

15. Oprah? You watch Oprah?
Why? There must be some better way to spend your time.

I have to watch it. Usually Oprah is pretty good. Today's Sarah Palin fandom was just unwatchable, though.
