i think you may need to stick to more middle of the road news sources.

that and anyone that listens to oprah needs to have have an "intervention" as soon as possible.

Quote from one of the articles on that page about Canadian border guards going on strike because they aren't allowed to be armed:

"It's time for both the U.S. and Canada to start getting tough, or we will both lose our countries to foreign invasion."


Paranoid much?  It's a good thing the U.S. wasn't founded with this sort of attitude.

I try not to listen to people on T.V. or in print who tell me how to think. I read/listen to what they have to say and form my own opinions. Pesonally I think that both of them are :screwy: especially Oprah.

Let's see...Debbie berates Oprah for patting herself on the back too much. Then she repeatedly notes how many times that Rush Limberger mentions her on the air. Hmmm, I sense a hypocrite.

Who is this chick anyway? Never heard of her before.

Comments as requested...

Oprah has the worst Messiah complex this side of Michael Jackson. This much is certain. Whatever flops out of her mouth, there are a few million women ready to agree. Still, I don't see her as that bad of a person. She does consistently try to help others through her media conglomerate. Whether it's the right help is debatable. She's still doing more than I presently can and has changed a lot of lives for the better.

Border guards: They have every right to defend themselves. I don't see what the big issue is. The 'foreign invasion' comment was pretty funny though.

Neither do I.  I totally agree that they should be armed.  The Canadian government, apparently, thinks that clubs and pepper spray are all that they need.  I do agree with Debbie's opinion in that respect.  But I thought the foreign invasion comment was funny as well.

I personally believe that Oprah thinks too much of herself, and because of her celebrity status everybody is falling over themselves backwards to please her - witness the Pontiac G6 stunt, where she "gave away" all those cars.

I don't watch her show, and I think that it is given too much attention, but with regard to her opinions, they are hers alone, and it's called freedom of speech, if you don't like it don't watch it. The website that you pointed to is on the other side of the spectrum, and I don't really know what to make of it, I think that perhaps the lady there is a bit jealous and is hiding it under the guise of this criticism.

Edit: I read the main page, and I think that this Schlussel lady is just trying to stir the waters, somewhat like Bill O'Reilly - now there's an interesting thought, how come Mr. O'Reilly has never picked on Oprah before if she's so bad. But anyway, I think that if this had been two decades ago, she'd have been writing about the Communist threats, and calling everyone Pinko Commie s or somesuch name.

all of the right wing and left wing talking heads should all just shut thier big pie holes. they are all just puppets for one side or the other, what both contries need are some leaders that actually try to help their voters instead of helping thier own power base. what happened to the middle, the extreme 10% on either end seem to think everyone should think like them. I like guns and hunting and fast cars, I also think trees and helping the poor are good.. can't I have both?
