Cartoon Culture: Oprah Winfrey & Sarah Palin

What's the score in the American culture war? Well the liberal caricature Oprah Winfrey lost in overtime and over exposure last week. She announced the cancellation of her show in late 2011. It's because her ratings have been cut in half this past 15 years. That hurt her more than someone taking her potato chips and Coke.  Winfrey had a lot to do with the liberal caricature, poster boy,  Obama getting elected.

Significantly Oprah's guest last week was  Sarah Palin. Palin announced a new book and an implied a run for the presidency. Palin is the potser girl and cartoon person for the conservatives. She is going up and Winfrey is going down. If Palin goes all the way up we all better look out below. An air-head discription of her would be generous and less threatening than the truth.

Can't we ever get somebody in between ? Where's the poster person for moderate politics? Only morons think with one half of their brain.  Cartoons and caricature are for the funny papers. They don't belong in office.

P.S. My book is at the editor.

Stinko Politics And Culture : Future Look

Given the increasing rate of political corruption and spiraling down of U.S. culture , a future look of how these challenges will be handled is worth a little speculative fantasy. In the interest of continuity and recognition the names will remain the same but the time period will be some 20 years hence. And so...

Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich appoints Caroline Kennedy to become Illinois' Senator. Immediately thereafter Blagojevich resigns his governorship and is appointed New York's Senator by Governor David Paterson. Ponzi-schemer Bernard Madoff surrenders to Elliott Spitzer who then is reappointed New York Attorney General by The New Jerusalem Times. Spitzer's first executive order is to drop all charges against Madoff who then becomes the Mayor of New Jerusalem which was formally known as Manhattan. Israel is now Palestine and former Israelis have all moved to New Jerusalem. Gentiles have formed a Hamas look- alike organization.

People can now have an uncensored view of Bill Clinton for 24/7 because of an attached webcam with a link to the internet. George Bush fell off the wagon and now wanders looking for cocktails of mass amnesia. Condi Rice does Colgate Dental Strips ads which demontrates how to fill a gap in a smile and stop being mistaken for Mad Magazine's Alfred E. Newman. President Obama governs from the center a.k.a. The Peoples And Families Republic Of Togetherness And Borrowing From , to wit the Federal Governments budget is now 75% of America's GDP with the remaining 25% being generated by Oprah Winfrey's Enterprises.
White people who do windows are in demand.

Oprah Winfrey Should Interview Khalid Shaikh Mohammed

Yesterday at Guantanamo Bay, Khalid Shaikh Mohammed pleaded guilty for himself and the other 4 imprisoned al-Qaeda operatives. He said, "We don't want to waste our time with [legal] motions. All of you are paid by the U.S. government and I'm not trusting any American."

It was a rare example of someone taking responsibility for his actions. And the responsibility will amount to an execution. This statement is unlike our overpaid weenie executives from the auto industry or Sam Zell of the bankrupt Chicago Tribune or Bush, Rice and Cheney for the Iraq War crimes or Senator Stevens of Alaska or John Thain of Merrill Lynch or John Mack of Morgan Stanley or Richard Fuld of Lehman and all the other countless "victims" in our weenie society. And that includes all those black dudes who are on Death Row for murder but blame a "racially prejudiced legal system" for their troubles.

Why doesn't Oprah Winfrey do a remote broadcast from Gtmo with Khalid? She could expose her fat, dumb and bored viewing audience to a real person. Redemption is supposed to be her mantra. What could be more honest than Khalid wanting a honest resolution to an ugly affair?
