    Post Oprah to end her talk show

    Saw this when I was checking my email this morning. I'm not a fan of hers but I can say it's sad to see her go. Considering how much she had changed with her show. http://www.popeater.com/2009/11/19/o...s-show-2011%2F

    That would be fan-fucking-tastic. I like the idea of no more walmarts....they're just breeding grounds for bacteria anyway.

    The only thing to do is to point and laugh at the native speicies found in there. It's like a trip to a nature preserve...just look and comment..sometimes point, but don't take anything home with you.

    Evan, you do realize she came from less than you and now has more than you will ever touch right? She is a very smart woman.

    No. It doesn't start nor end with her money dude. She built herself an empire from scratch. Look at the millions of people that are her devoted fans. All the things in the world she helped change. She has probably done more than you or me either one will ever do, even combined.

    So, there are levels of importance of what you've done in your life, based upon assets, fans, etc? Does it matter that she had nothing and now has plenty, when talking about what kind of person she is? You think people get extremely rich by being a good person? LOL. I'm past the whole, "I want to grow up to be rich and/or famous" thing. I hope I grow up to be a good, honest man that people can trust and call a friend, while still provide plenty for my family to live in comfort.

    All the things in the world she helped change. She has probably done more than you or me either one will ever do, even combined.
    Since you know all these wonderful things she's done for the human society, start naming some that should make me feel inferior. Why should I measure how good of a person I am by Oprah Winfrey? She's a person, I'm not going to judge myself off another person.

    Dude my point went right over your head. She has done a lot for people around the world. Like getting charities setup, doing shows on different things to bring it to the attention of millions of people. So I guess stuff like that doesn't count tho? Also she started the whole giving of presents and gifts away during her show, especially around the holidays.

    Besides Simon, everyone around the world that has or has had a tv at some point knows who Oprah is. Doesn't matter who you are.

    "Winfrey was called "arguably the world's most powerful woman" by CNN and Time.com, "arguably the most influential woman in the world" by the American Spectator, "one of the 100 people who most influenced the 20th Century" and "one of the most influential people" of 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 by Time. Winfrey is the only person in the world to have made all six lists."

    I'd say that alone makes her a hell of a person. It's one thing to be a famous rich person, but being that influential takes a lot more.

    lol@thisthread.

    anyway, to continue,

    Bill O'Reilly said:
    “I mean this is a woman that came from nothing to rise up to be the most powerful woman, I think, in the world. I think Oprah Winfrey is the most powerful woman in the world, not just in America. That's — anybody who goes on her program immediately benefits through the roof. I mean, she has a loyal following; she has credibility; she has talent; and she's done it on her own to become fabulously wealthy and fabulously powerful."

    im not a fan of good ol bill, but he speaks some troof

    Both of you fucks should just fuckoff, and quit wasting the internet's bandwidth on complete blather. Dumb wankstains. You two cunts are less than nothing to everyone, and neither one is winning this argument.

    As for that black twat Oprah? I don't like her face nor do I have any idea what she does or what she speaks of on her show so I don't care.

    Here is a few....

    She's made a school for girls in S. Africa called Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls and she's brought a lot of attention to things like the plight of gays worldwide, health, and the sickness of the meat industry.

    She also started Oprah’s Child Predator Watch List to help track down molesters.

    There's also Oprah's Angel Network, a charity aimed at encouraging people around the world to make a difference in the lives of underprivileged others.

    After Katrina encouraged Americans to help out.

    She's given an estimated $303 million!

    Sounds like she likes seeing her name to make sure people know it's her behind it all. If everyone thinks she this great person, show ratings go up. Show ratings go up, more money. More money, more power.

    She's a great person.

    I didn't you did. You were asking what she has done for IA. I said IA is not a problem that is big enough like the ones she goes after. She has went after child molesters, helped the poor, etc. etc. things like that nature. Besides your the one that started the IA thing when I just asked what is so great that you have done.

    You asked me what I've done for IA, when we were talking about what Oprah has done for the world. I assumed Oprah has done something for IA, since you feel it was relevant. Then out of the blue, you compare IA's contribution to society to what Oprah has done.


    Hence, my question about your mother doing crack while caring you.

    Yet again you took that the wrong way. You said you were such a great person. I asked what you have done that makes you so great. Your a good guy yeah. But you do twist peoples words around to make you seem better than they are. You said you had done many great things for IA after I had said she has done many great things for the world. I was initially asking you what things you have done period that where so great, but you threw in the part about doing so many great things about IA so I asked you what you had done.

    Even if she does do something to promote her name. It doesn't matter, she is still helping those less fortunate. Besides, how many other millionaires have gave as much back as she has?

    How can you expect a millionaire to give millions, when the billionaire, Oprah, gives millions?

    But I digress, this wasn't a discussion of how much people give, it's about their character. Giving doesn't mean a great person.
