Charybdis of Lake Michigan Refuses to Endorse Barack Obama for Re-Election
[ Click above to embiggen -- if you dare ]
Oprah Winfrey — the now and forever Charybdis of Lake Michigan, regardless of what coastline she currently hunts — has refused to endorse Barack Obama for re-election and will not provide him with free advertising on her OWN (Oprah’s Weird Noises) cable channel or splashy campaign appearances in 2012.
This is a stark contrast to the fool Oprah made of herself pushing Obama onto her viewership in 2008 — when Oprah made the mostly racially-motivated decision to go all-in for Obama because his skin was approximately the same color as hers.
Back then, she called Obama “The One” — a dream child sent from the stars to solve all the world’s problems with a unique brand of unicorn-summoning magic that Oprah vouched for aggressively. In 2012, with the Oprah’s Weird Noises network struggling to attract dozens of viewers nightly, a floundering Oprah has seemingly realized the great disservice she did to her career by foisting Obama on the public.
Looks like she’s taking a big, steaming number two on “The One”, as only Oprah Winfrey can.
I’m happy she’s no longer living here in Chicago and is now haunting California where this charybdis is the West Coast’s problem (and bane of baleens from the bays of San Francisco to Baja, no doubt). I think it says a lot about the woman that in the year or so since she’s been out of Illinois, there isn’t anyone here who has ever seemed to miss her. Frankly, it’s as if she never existed at all.
That’s apparently what’s happened with her viewership now that she’s off daytime syndicated TV and is in charge of the Oprah’s Weird Noises network — where there isn’t as much of a market for her weird noises as the charybdis believed.
Hopeychange didn’t work out for Oprah any better than it did for the rest of the country, apparently.

"Liberal Journalists (TeH Journalisters) Plotted to Protect 0bama"
"A group of liberal journalists in 2008 sought to sweep under the rug the…scandal that threatened to derail then-Sen. Barack Obama's presidential campaign…..The documents offer evidence to conservative critics who have long held that the mainstream media were in the tank for Obama, and bolsters the argument that reporters with major news outlets are biased in their coverage…..Journalists working for Time, Politico, the Huffington Post, the Baltimore Sun, the Guardian, Salon and the New Republic…plotted to protect Obama from the swirling controversy, according to the Daily Caller.
Spencer Ackerman of the Washington Independent pressed his fellow journalists to deflect attention from Obama's relationship with Wright by shifting topics to one of Obama's conservative critics, the Daily Caller reported. "Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares – and call them racists," Ackerman wrote.
Michael Tomasky, a writer for the Guardian, urged his fellow members of Journolist, a private listserv comprised of several hundred liberal journalists, to do "what we can to kill ABC and this idiocy in whatever venues we have."
The Journolist members went as far as issuing a statement – one that was shaped with the help of Jared Bernstein who went on to become Vice President Biden's top economist…

Even the most empty-headed liberal business person can only pretend for so long that the free market doesn't work. It obeys its own immutable laws that even the once-mighty Oprah can't overcome.
Oprah brought it on herself when she released the youtube vid putting down soap operas & telling the fans that no one watched soaps anymore & she wouldn't save All My Children & One Life to Live (which had averaged about 3 million viewers a day since late year). Both soaps are now gone & tone deaf Oprah can't understand why she can't pull in those viewers.
I wonder if she thought she would add viewers if the soaps went away? Less competition?
She created this mess, when she used her TV-pulpit to bring an unknown forward. Her ratings suck because we all voted with our consumerism, by NOT watching her show or her channel!
and don't forget her hypocrisy in not inviting Sarah Palin on her show b/c she didn't want to "be political" – who couldn't see right through that! Tone deaf is a good way to describe her. 99% of her audience are white women.
Tone deaf is correct, but her rot (just like Barry Hussein and Moochelle's) extends far far beyond that.
She is "Life-Deaf."
It's kind of interesting, Big Hollywood had a discussion about Oprah's Epic Failure with the OWN Network, and the writer suggested that you can't alienate a huge portion of your viewing audience with your racist support for a black liberal candidate and then expect those same viewers to keep filling your wallet by watching your drivel. Some of the comments appeared to be written by people who work for Oprah, because they cited all kinds of statistics about how even though Oprah's ratings were in the TOILET after she endorsed Obama in 2008, they were only reflective of daytime TV ratings in general and Oprah was still the queen of daytime and it just reflected that people suddenly in 2008 had more choices of daytime programming on cable stations, blah, blah, blah. Anything BUT admitting that Oprah screwed up bigtime by endorsing Obama and revealing her true racist character. If Oprah is truly refusing to get back on the Obama bandwagon in 2012, it is proof that she knows he is a big part of her epic failure. I have to say, nobody deserves it more.
Thank you for that DGinGA.
That is very insightful. Of course in 2008 the media was totally in the tank for Obama (and still is).
So people were turning off all the Lie-Stream Media broadcasts – not just DOprah.
