Oprah gets smacked

Smackdown!
 If you were one of the billions who didn't watch Sarah Palin's Oprah appearance, you'll be glad to learn that (according to HuffPo) the "real telling moment came in the first seconds of the sit-down."
They don't call it The Oprah Winfrey Show for nothing. It was a moment worthy of a WWF Smackdown: The Narcissist vs The Maverick.

Did you feel snubbed that I hadn't invited you to be on the show during the campaign?, Winfrey immediately asked The Wasilla Wonder. To which a rather snarky Palin quipped, "No offense to you, but it wasn't the center of my universe." Oh no she di-'int! Palin then added, "I've heard more about that during the last few weeks than during the campaign." Clearly taken aback, an incredulous Winfrey asked, "You didn't even know about it?!" Wow. It was kind of painful to watch. It was as if Oprah was pleading, Wait, don't you know who I am? I am Oprah...Winfrey....I elect presidents...I turn no-name authors into superstars....I make middle-aged, middle-American white women swoon more than Josh Groban! Are you telling me you didn't obsess about me when you were on the campaign trail? Shocking! Truly shocking!


And there you have it. The one big, and only truly relevant moment in the interview. The Mammoth Ego from Chicago meets the Mighty MILF From Alaska. Last time I saw theatre this good a bunch of human cats were jumping around on Broadway.
 Oprah's ratings for this show were her highest in years, surpassing even the Obama interview.

Related: MoSup tells me that while she was in Border's Bookstore yesterday, a man came up to the desk and somewhat irritatedly said to the clerk, "I'm looking for her book!" That  was all.  Her book. The clerk responded that she didn't know where it was.  Another clerk piped up, "I've got them here in a box, but they're somewhere else too."   Word for word.

Supastah!!! Despite being an even bigger rock star than teh-O - sans the massive ego - I hope she can galvanize more than just our base of core conservatives. In order to get the moderates, she has to get fit on her foreign affairs knowledge and be the pitbull with lipstick to slap back at the lying commie bastards in the MSM who are hell bent on destroying her.

Evidently Oprah got the message.

Seeing the implication that she might drop a clue or two regarding her shift to another line of entertainment and public service, let's hope she takes a lead position at the 2012 summer Olympics as javelin catcher.

Man, Sarah made Oprah quit!
Geeze, not even Chuck Norris could do that.

Rodger the Real King of France said...

Here's why she quit. Oprah now realizes what she did to the nation with her over the top promotion of a Black Chicago Zero, and can't face the prospect of having him on her show in 2012, and compounding her crime against humanity.

It warms my heart to see that incompetent ex-Baltimore TV news anchor put in her place, and by Sarah-cuda to boot.
