It Ain't Pretty: Feminists Revealed for What They Are

So it appears Oprah will not be inviting Sarah Palin on her show. This should not be a surprise, given Oprah's support for Obama and Palin's place on the opposing ticket. But it is. Didn't we all think Oprah was for promoting all capable women? Showing women as being capable - perhaps moreso - than men? Say it ain't so, Oprah!

The feminists are now shown for what they are: liberal elitists with a stanch left-wing agenda. They dig in their spike heels and flatly refuse to revel in the accomplishments of a conservative woman, no matter how great those accomplishments are. Sarah Palin came from humble middle-class roots; it's the core of her popularity; she's like us.

But the feminists will have none of it. Palin is not cosmopolitan enough, not urban enough, not left enough. It doesn't matter that she's reformed for the better nearly everything she's been around; she's conservative - and a moderate one, at that. That's the deal killer, despite her being a woman who beat the Old Boys at their own game.

Wow, what a revelation!

As a side note, my wife canceled her subscription to O magazine over this. It appears Oprah is more Democrat than fair. She's Certainly not a stateswoman.

FOXNews.com - Oprah Reportedly Balking at Having Palin on Show - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment:

"The queen of talk appears to be balking at inviting newly minted Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin on her show, according to The Drudge Report.


Winfrey's staff reportedly is sharply divided on booking Palin.

'Half of her staff really wants Sarah Palin on,' a source told Drudge. 'Oprah's Web site is getting tons of requests to put her on, but Oprah and a couple of her top people are adamantly against it because of Obama.'

Oprah, who hosted and has campaigned with Democratic nominee Barack Obama, last year blocked an appearance by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, timed to a promotional tour of his autobiography.

The Drudge Report also cites Oprah and her executive producer Sheri Salata as big contributors to Obama's campaign."
