My Heart Bleeds For Oprah

By Semperpapa

The Blaze reports that, according to an interview Oprah Winfrey gave to Piers Morgan, she hates to write the check for her taxes to the IRS.

Oprah told in the interview that she has to sign every check for amounts over $100,000, so when her accountants come to have her sign the checks she owes the government, they bring her tequila, I guess to ease the pain.

So my heart goes to Oprah for the stress that she must obviously be feeling.

Oh, wait a minute, she campaigned for Obama! That tells me that she feels that his policies are in line with her own, including his demonstrated hatred for anyone who worked hard to achieve financial comfort. That means that she agreed with Obama's staunch intention of re-distributing wealth out of producers and in the hands of the takers.
So why is Oprah so distressed by having to pay taxes? Should she not be happy that she is contributing to the success of Obama?

Maybe Ms. Winfrey was given the impression that she, as an Obama crony and being the mighty Oprah, would be exempt from the IRS money grab that the man she worshiped has been conducting for the last two years.

Or maybe Ms. Oprah is just another typical liberal hypocrite who supported Obama because he is black and because she thought she would get a preferential treatment because of it.

That is nothing more than racism.

It is interesting how these so called celebrities have the courage to speak in these terms. She, as a successful entertainer who supposedly came from abject poverty, should be even more sensitive to the words she uses. Many of the people in her audience do not have a combined household salary that even comes close to the amount she pays in taxes.
Moreover, she also lacks any sensitivity toward the portion of the black population that has been held hostage by people like Al Sharpton and Jessi Jackson for decades and who definitely do not have anywhere near the income level of Ms. Oprah.

I get a chuckle from liberals when they get impacted by the very policies they champion so vehemently.
I would really laugh at the image of Woopy Goldberg and Joy Behar having to cope with Sharia law.

Just my thoughts!
