Oprah says "Moop"

Holy Cow!
Md. GOPers Have a Beef With "Oprah"
Bad judgment or "udder" nonsense?
CLAP CALP CLAP

 
Oprah the Cow
A political leader in Maryland is under fire because of the name of a family pet.

Diana Waterman, the newly elected First Vice Chairman of the state Republican Party, has a black Angus cow named "Oprah."

According to the Baltimore Sun, the issue came to light on a recent Facebook posting when the cow birthed a calf.

The Sun says the posting caught the attention of Sveinn Storm, who runs a Queen Anne's County-focused blog called "Pave Our County?"

Storm criticized Waterman's naming the cow after the African-American talk show host who has struggled with her weight.  Storm say that's "precisely why an enormouse number of Americans view Republicans as racists."  [Full story]


Who is the only racist in this story?  That's exacto-mundo, per usual.

Growing up on the farm, I raised a "pet" pig that I called Pork Chop. Nobody accused me of racism.

Of course this was long before Michelle Obama became a nutritional expert and our national food moralist.

So now I would show more sensitivity in pet naming.

I guess he couldn't afford a spell-checker or grammar aid?
