If he'd given the O’ Medal it would have looked like a dog pile hanging around strand of toilet paper.

Oprah Winfrey? This Oprah Winfrey: old white folks just have to die? Why Gov. Palin is much more famous. Look at these two google news searches.

(the first one is actual results)

google News: winfrey "just have to die"
19 results

google News: Palin "target opponent for defeat" 83,458,200,846,724,067,194,100 results

See. Palin is more in the news than Winfrey.. no wait. I think I know why Winfrey got the award..

She's prominent in the world of the expanding Knockout Game conferences.

Knockout Game team owner.:

Evidently nowadays you have to be a great liar to get the award so Yes only good liberals/democrats can receive it.
Liberals ruin everything they touch!!!
