7. That's interesting, I never heard Nicholas King.
I'm really into L'enfant, Ellicott and Banneker. Now I'll have to look this guy up too.

15. Quite. All the inner city children she patronized told her they only wanted ipods.
That's because she was hawking the stupid things with that musician chap, Boner, or whatever his name was... kids saw her visage, we are a commercialistic society, and of course they wanted what she was selling. :dunce: If Oprah had half a brain, she would have followed up with "Well kids, how do you get an ipod? That's right! You learn, get a job, and earn one!!" All she did, according to the media, was huff and puff that America's kids only wanted ipods so she went elsewhere. (the whole story would be nice, unless that was the whole story, in which case she's as twisted as anti-union, out-of-touch Steve Jobs...)

President Obama seems sincere, but Oprah's just another television image.

8. An Ambassadorship, head a commission to encourage reading, exercise (i.e. couch jumping)?
Those are her pet projects. :bounce:

10. Head of the Department of Uncritical thinking
(otherwise known as woo). She seems to fall for any kind of bullshit that comes down the pike, from "The Secret" to Dr. Oz.

17. The belief being, all the time she gave to Obama and fawning over him.
Some think she'll get some special perk as a result. Especially the Palin people as they got upset over Oprah canceling Palin's appearance or something like that.

Hasn't happened yet, special perks for Oprah...

19. No, its the belief being that celebrities are omniscient, and more able than dedicated public...
...servants and experts. Hence, Gupta.

16. Well, if this was under Bill Clinton, hers would be a blow job.
:hide:

President Obama and his wife don't exactly come across as being sleazy or philanderers...
