Petition to book SARAH PALIN (GOP VP NOMINEE) onto the Oprah Winfrey Show...!

Posted on Aug 29, 2008 9:41 PM

Please join-in this humble posting to get this fascinating woman onto Oprah's show - If there was ever a woman of notariety to enjoy Oprah a 'sit-down' with, this is the woman for the coming months.. *Especially the fact that she puts the Abortion issue on its head regarding her own 'choice' to keep her Downs Syndrome baby upon discovering in the 4th month of her pregnancy.. This is a courageous woman on many levels, if not for this one human fact alone.

Thanks for the opportunity..

Best..!

I'm all for having her on but I think it would kind of defeat the purpose of Oprah endorcing Obama.

Oprah will only even entertain the idea of Having Sarah Palin on her show if she ends up being the Vice President after the election. It won't happen otherwise. Oprah is an ultra liberal and Sarah Palin is an ultra conservative. The two do not mix.

5. Please do NOT NOT NOT have Palin on the show - She has plenty of conservative forums!

Palin has plenty of forums - I have no interest in seeing her on the show unless she wants to discuss that courageous choice of pushing her 17 year old daughter into a marriage with a sad young man who has declared on his myspace page that he has no interest in having kids....and also addressing why it is that her daughter didn't feel comfortable enough to begin with talking to her mom about birth control rather than pregnancy - yeah... abstinence preaching works like a charm!
And for those who compare Palin's experience with Obama's...I just say the people VOTED for Obama with whatever experience he does or doesn't have - but if Palin becomes President (which is extremely plausible if McCain and his ill health and age win the election), then we will have someone inexperienced (with pending corruption allegations against them) who was NEVER VOTED FOR EVEN IN THE PRIMARY as our President - that is one scary day!

I know it's hard for some people such as yourself to understand, but there are those of us that don't think that having a baby is bad just because you're young. Some of us also don't think forcing a father to marry the mother and live with his responsibility to that child on a daily basis is wrong either. I'm sure your use of "courageous" is not meant with anything but sarcasm and scorn. You don't have to "feel comfortable" about talking about a subject when your parents don't believe in it because it won't happen. I am personally for birth control and abstinence, but I won't let criticism of these things go by without challenging them. Yes, we can't expect every child to not have sex, but on the other hand, while they must be safe, we shouldn't be telling them it is still ok to have sex when they shouldn't be having it. Just out of curiousity, are you also against young marriage in general? I am sort of guessing you are, but I know you'll correct me if you don't feel that way.

I would LOVE to see Sarah Palin appear on Oprah. The differing views and beliefs of both women would make for an awesome show, and I would think a record number of viewers would tune in. Oprah is a tough woman who speaks her mind, and so is Sarah Palin. That's what good talk shows are looking for.

All these comments are proof that Governor Palin would be a fascinating guest. You don't have to agree with all her views but wow what a woman! Oprah has been for empowering ALL women, not just those who have the same beliefs as she has so I am pretty sure that she will happily invite Governor Palin on her show.

If Sarah Palin had not been the VP nominee and had come up on Oprah's radar she definitely would have had her on. Now, I still think Oprah will do the right thing, which is why we love her so much.

I've never really watched Oprah that much because I have a job and a life. However, I don't care to watch it and do not watch it if I am home. Oprah is out for Oprah, although her viewership has decreased since she started her Obama "love fest". Between that and the Eckhart Tolle B.S. she was pushing down everyones throats, her opinion does not matter to me in the least. Personally I feel that Sarah Palin is too good and too intelligent to go on Oprah. Seriously, she doesn't need Oprah and her viewers!

My advice to Sarah would be to avoid Oprah. Oprah is in the tank for Obama and will do whatever it takes for him to win, which means not being fair with Palin, if she were to come on the show. I don't think the "Oprah Crowd" would care to see Sarah anyway. They hang on every word that Oprah speaketh, and follow her like mind numbed robots. My advice to other women is to quit grasping onto the "crumbs" that Oprah throws your way! Be your own woman and make up your own minds, without Oprah leading you down a treacherous path!!!

If the guest doesn't promote Oprama's message than it's not in her best interest to have them on.

She's has already involved the show in politics by endorsing B. Hussein Obama.

My only suggestion is to turn OFF the Oprama Whenfree show, then maybe she will go away like Martha Stewart.

This is the best post here. The reference to having a job and a life made me laugh.

Sarah doesn't need Oprah, but if Oprah will regret not feeling the need for Sarah.

Where do I sign the petition ? :o)

Sarah Palin is a woman's woman. Oprah may not be familiar .... Oprah does not want to have another woman on the show who will inspire more women across this nation in one week, than she has in her entire career. I'm not quite sure Oprah how you can get away with having Nobama on your show, but not Palin, and somehow your show is not a "political platform". You have got to be kidding me. Anyway, thank you for showing the country your true colors, now women can get on with the real business of this country.

Ok, so you deleted my online petition. How appropriate! Censorship on both the show and the message board.
