Oprah is having quite the love fest with Shrub. Plus, it was Saddam's fault about WMD

[UTUSN]

The first part was one yuk after another. He's so CUTE!!!!!!!!!1 Oprah's audience is applauding. Later she's getting a tour of the B.F.E.E. manor(s), conducted by Poppy and Horse Face Babs (apologies to horses everywhere).


As for the Saddam's fault, Shrub claims that EVERYBODY thought he had WMD and that the intelligence agencies were wrong but not to blame because even those who "became" war critics thought he had them, that Saddam wanted everybody to think he had them for his clout's sake.

Lots of yak about how much he reads History. Wow, this from the dude who said he didn't care what History would say about him because he'd "be dead by then."


For the record, let's do a remedial review for Shrub: He talked about attacking Iraq AT LEAST TWO YEARS before. He WANTED to do it as a B.F.E.E. family cartel war of vengeance for his Poppy's being a wimp AND at the same time to climb out from Poppy's shadow. He always had the goal of attacking Iraq and 9-11 gave the opportunity (if not the factual reasons) to do it.

1. Well, there goes my respect for that woman. Shame on her.

And her audience. Bush the Dumber is a mass murderer and war criminal, and he deserves the same fate as Pol Pot and the SS.

7. #1 reason to NOT watch Oprah.

:puke:

[niyad]

2. what little respect I had for her is now gone.

by the way, chimpy, all the other intelligence services KNEW there were NO wmd.

[cutlassmama]

3. I thought she was a lefty. WTF?

[XanaDUer]

4. When you reach the stratosphere of money and influence

of folks like OW, Shrub, etc, they fawn over each other like they would at a Hamptons cocktail party.

[cutlassmama]

13. Well that's just sad,

[northernlights]

15. she is whatever it pays her most to be.

In the mid-90s, it paid her to be spiritual, so she hosted Deepak Chopra and all that spirituality 'stuff.' In a program on her forgiveness, I watched her yell over a guest while visciously ripping into the re-habbing alcoholic woman who had killed the guest's sibling while driving drunk. The guest held the sobbing woman in her arms and physically put herself between Oprah to deflect the verbal blows. It was a stunning moment offering a view of Oprah's true colors. It was clear to me in that moment that her spirituality was skin deep at best and the color of money. I have intensely disliked her ever since and will not watch her shows ever. She is loud, abrasive, domineering, egocentric beyond belief. What a piece of work.

Then it became in to become materialistic, so the spirituality programming ended and the endless expensive stuff shows began. Whichever way the wind (and money) blows, ya know?

22. She is a billionaire. 'Nuf said.

[Blue Owl]

5. Here's a question Oprah could ask Dear Leader

"Who was the most vacationed president in American history?"

[UTUSN]

6. Oh. He killed his sister's goldfish by pouring vodka in the bowl. Hilarious!1

They haven't mentioned his lighting firecrackers up frog's rectums. Funny, they're not doing a psychopath show.



To the other comments about Oprah, above, well Shrub wouldn't do the show if she were going to ask hard questions or be critical.

[WinkyDink]

23. Psycho Kid.

[Dappleganger]

8. Rich people love each other.

It's really quite that simple.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

9. The key thing to me was always that he pulled out the inspectors.

That and how the definition of WMD kept degrading from noo-kyo-lur bombs down to pointed sticks.

[Major Hogwash]

10. You are correct, sir.

But, since we are "looking forward" and not prosecuting anyone for it, why not just look the other way all of the other people in charge are doing?

This country is FUCKED UP!!!!!

[Major Hogwash]

11. Shrub is a war criminal.

And everyone knows that, too, by the way, Shrubbery!

[EFerrari]

12. Oprah is dead to me and to Hugo Chavez.

:)

[UTUSN]

19. You are SUCH a true wit!1 Sigh. If only that Hugo person weren't between us!1 n/t

[Peregrine Took]

14. I always thought she helped him get "elected" in 2000. She did a special show

of him and Laura - the real phony "up close and personal" type of propaganda.

Walking hand in hand on the "ranch", feeding the twins when they were babies, him bringing her coffee every morning in bed (what a guy!!) - that kind of thing. Real schmaltzy crap but "O" and the audience ate it up.

I thought - this is going to have a big impact on a lot of women - the softer side of the old George. ICK!

[Octafish]

18. Thanks for the reminder...

The little turf from Crawford was the down-home host in full humble condescension mode. Oprah wore designer jeans to help clear brush. Money makes strange bedfellows.

[Marie Marie]

16. Oprah is alot like Obama.

They both seem to think that they are following this higher calling of reaching out to and getting along with just everybody. She is also friends with Condi.

[TheWatcher]

17. Once again, I will say it. America, this is who you are now.

Instead of Rule Of Law, holding Criminals Accountable for their Crimes, we fellate them and praise them for their atrocities.

We "Move Forward".

We "Look Ahead".

"For The Good Of The Country."

How has that worked out for you America?

How did it work out for other Empires in history that chose similar paths?

Is your precious Junk Culture, Sports Mythos, Fabricated Reality Poison that important and relevant to you?

Was It All Worth It?

Will future generations think so?

SHAME

[JuniperLea]

20. She's been dead to me for a while now...

The Condi deal sealed it yet again... and this just confirms it yet again.

Money is thicker than blood on the hands of war criminals for some.

[WinkyDink]

21. That beady-eyed, red-nosed, yuk-toothed cretin is "CUTE"?!

[PDJane]

24. Sure it was.

I mean, the US and Britain knew he had them. They did keep the receipt.
