Dear Oprah,
We are great, big fans, and we admire you so much! A little bit about us. We got married about two and a half years ago, we have a beautiful daughter, who is now 18 months old, she will be 19 months on the twenty second of this month. My wife is currently pregnant wih our second baby. We just recently found out that we are having a boy!! The reason I am trying to contact you is because I know you help a lot of people who are going through roguh times. I used to have a good job, I always try to work hard, and do the right thing, but unfortunately a couple of months ago I got laid off, and everything seems to be going down hill from there. I am still waiting to be aproved for my unemployment. I am not recieving any help from the what so ever. I have been applying everywhere I can, but I have not had any luck. At this point I do not know what to do. My wife is due to have the baby this coming March, and we are only a month away from losing the house that we are currently living in, and 32 days away from Christmas. I am so stressed out because my wife only works part time right now at two different jobs and we still are not able to make enough money to pay the rent for where we are living and pay our credit card bills. Basically, Oprah, we are having such a hard time. I know it is not just me and my wife, there are millions of other families out there having hard ships too, but the main reason I am asking for help is because of my kids and my wife. Sometimes I think that they deserve better. Usually I can survive any where, but my family is different. Some times families need little angels to give us a push in the right direction. Thats why I am contacting you. You are an angel in disguise. Thank you for the time you took to read my message and thank you so much for helping so many people you are a real angel.

Oprah believes her own press. She has her faithful minions doing everything she says. Now these women are going to let her pick our President?

Too bad much of the public is mesmerized by her. No matter what she does she seems to garner more compliments from the zombie audience that watches daytime t.v..

Arrgh! Jamie Oliver! Just the mention of his name makes my skin crawl. As a fellow Brit I am deeply disturbed that the once proud British people are now mesmerised and full of admiration for such a narcissistic nerd and nobody.But then TV does tend to turn its viewers into braindead zombies incapable of critical judgement. Even my local supermarket here in Switzerland has a special section selling his deeply unoriginal kitchen utensils and condiments. There is no escape from this twisted personality with an inferiority complex with his name stamped on kitchen knives and curry powders. And guess what? They are indistinguishable from other kitchen knives and curry powders or whatever, except for his brand name. As if there isn’t enough choice on the market. This guy is a greedy money grubber who can’t get enough cash and adulation, whose desire for wealth and fame is bottomless, whose banal voice and geeky face is omnipresent. He is a cynical hypocrite who doesn’t give a toss for the poor and is a member of that elite group of false philanthropists and egomaniacs, made up of such abject and heartless phonies like Bono, Geldof, Sting, Jolie and Clooney. The list is getting longer

HOprah is a piece of work. I would know very little about her as I’m working most every day at that time–except for what I read on DS.com and the tabloid covers at the grocery store.
Thanks for pointing out such hypocrisy.
