I have started a counter-petition to support Oprah against Palin supporters. A false rumor that Oprah has refused Palin's request to be on her show has angered some conservative women and men, who are now threatening to boycott Oprah and have started a petition to force her to interview Palin. Oprah has refused and reminded these people that she decided not to use her show as a platform for any of the candidates, not even Obama, whom she has endorsed. Obama has not been on the show since before he announced his candidacy; Obama, Biden, and McCain will not be on her show before Nov. 4, so why should Palin? Palin supporters are clearly trying to use Oprah to reach women viewers; of course, the idea that Palin is a pro-woman candidate is deeply offensive. And Palin hasn't even been interviewed on any news programs yet! Whether you are a fan of Oprah or not, you have to admit that it is her show and she should be free to choose whomever she wants to have on it.
This seems like just another controversy to distract us from the real issues of the election. The media is already picking up on this fake controversy reporting only on the attacks on Oprah and not the support.
This might seem like a small battle, considering the greater one we face, but we want to beat the opposing petition and support Oprah.

SARAH PALIN IS A 'PHONY MOM & POLITICIAN!'. Simply because...SHE DIDN'T EVEN 'BLINK OR CARE' she is leaving a 'special needs' child behind, with a pregnant teenager to take care of it, and her other two daughters to fend for themselves when daddy is on the trail too! DID SHE EVEN DISCUSS THE OFFER WITH HER HUSBAND? so much for her 'christian belief', the bible says the husband is the HEAD of the family! goes to show it's all about HER!
it happens every day in allot of homes, with moms who have to juggle between family and an 8 hour shift, but there's one difference..their not running for office! she is a poor example of a mother! whatever happened to 'sterilization', birth control pills, or family planning? 44 and unprotected sex?? really irresponsible!
secondly, she has no experience or has any idea what the job demands, is contrary to john Mc Cain on 'many issues', and is lying, repeating her lies NON-STOP!
I also hate the fact she doesn't give SQUAT about the environment! Especially her comments during her convention speech! quote referring to Obama; what exactly is our opponent's plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he's done turning back the waters and healing the planet? she isn't even aware ALASKA'S ice cap IS MELTING ALL AROUND HER! and what's wrong with HEALING THE PLANET anyway? we're doing a lousy job of protecting it don't we! All she really cares about is lying, defaming others, hunting, and being in the 'spotlight'.
I'm a Hillary supporter who accepts Joe Biden, and i see clearly how 'phony she is'.
Look at her POOR record of protecting wildlife! LET THE GUNS BLAZE! DECLARE OPEN SEASON ON THE POLAR BEARS, MOOSE, CARIBOU, AND WOLVES! WHAT'S NEXT!? SHOOTING SOMEONE IN THE FOOT? LIKE DICK CHANEY shot someone in the face? DON'T TRUST HER AMERICA! I DON'T FOR-SURE!!
OPRAH CAN DO WHAT SHE LIKES! IT'S HER SHOW!
