"There's a level of disrespect for the office that occurs in some cases and maybe even many cases because he's African American," she said. "There's no question about that. And it's the kind of thing no one ever says, but everybody's thinking it."
He’s a liar regardless of his skin pigmentation. A Marxist too.
Yep. I totally disrespect Obama just like all the other black presidents I have disrespected: Roosevelt, Truman, Kennedy, Nixon, Carter, Clinton....Oh, wait!
so .... was Bush disrespected by the left because he was white?
“Just like all of the disrespect that the left heaped upon President Bush is because he was black.”
Remember the chimp photo-montages? The constant use of the term “shrub”?
While I thought some of that was ill-conceived I do think any American president has to be considered a fair target for any expression of opposition short of threats of physical violence.
I also have no recollection of anyone connected with the Bush administration implying that First Amendment rights should be limited when it comes to criticizing the president.
Yes. I was thinking that for a black woman in America who has become a billionaire she sure clings to that victim mentality.
He is disrespected because he is a liar. PERIOD!
If “black” was the issue then I wouldn’t respect Ben Carson and Allen West as much as I do. I think Oprah’s bank account is not doing as well as as projected. May be she helped fund ObamaCare’s website? May be she misses all that middle class white female fawning she got used to when she had that soapy talk show for decades on ABC? ; )
Some of the comments are hysterical.
I like the one “did you know that the only successful countries are socialist and obama is trying to help the US because it has been capitalist”
People had movies of Bush getting assassinated and you didn't have Oprah coming out all offended about that or any other President before she decided to activate on the first part-black President.
To me it is obvious that Oprah went for Obama because of race based on her lack of EVER getting involved before for a candidate. Is Oprah a racist for only coming out for the first black guy? Does she have to think the only reason people have bad opinions of the President's actions and jobs has to be race?
Why can't we make out own independent conclusions of what this President is doing and their effects on the people and the world?
Why should Obama become the first President you can't be critical of?
He can have supporters and those who want him impeached like any other person, or does Oprah feel/think that he being part black makes him exempt from the bad and only has the right to the benefits of all things? If so, what is Oprah?
“Oprah is a racist bitch.”
It seems I have to be the speech police today. What you wrote is profoundly disrespectful and offensive—to dogs. I have two wonderful dogs and you’ve insulted their mothers by comparing them to Oprah and the Mahdi. Please refer to her as a “witch,” not a “bitch.”
Wow, Oprah must be right because I’ve never seen a black person pull the race card and falsely allege racism before.
FUOW
No Oprah, he’s disrespected because he’s a muzzie lovin commie.
Oprah has made herself irrelevant with respect to people that are educated and understand the truth. Obama is disrespected because he is a liar and a Communist POS.
Well, of that list only Clinton was a “black” president.
How’s that Negro Hegemony working you Oprah...a culture forged in the cauldron of subjugation and dependence, used by white liberal power brokers since 1865, infecting the American ethos of hard work and honesty with a sick virus of victimhood, dishonesty, corruption, and thievery. African American culture was on the ascent into the mid 1960’s when white supremacist like LBJ thought the darkies were becoming too uppity and needed government to “help” them back down to their proper place. Oprah is not a symbol black independence, she is a minstrel show, a safe stooge for the Margaret Sanger wing of the NE liberal Democrat party. A black Martha Stewart\Dr Phil\Deepak Chopra monstrosity concocted by Hollywood, a sock puppet of the liberal establishment. Adolph Hitler was a white liberal, he was for national healthcare, abortion on demand, removing God from the schools, “investing” in the future, making things fair and reaching a classless society. Same script folks, always ending in genocide. Obama is a camels nose under the tent. Oprah is a the Leni Riefenstahl of the new Nazis. Except Oprah will wind up in the oven after her usefulness is used up.
