In my last post, I discussed Oprah Winfrey being denied entrance into the posh department store, Hermes.

I pointed out how odd it was that Ms. Winfrey was using the race card, when, after all, she only puts black women on the cover of her magazine.

In the comments section to that post, Kay responds,

“You're technically right that Oprah only puts black women on the cover of her magazine, but as far as I can remember, it's because she only puts HERSELF on the cover of her magazine!”

If that is the case, Kay, then it is an even more chilling example of intolerance. This means Oprah not only endorses such bigotry, she actually fully participates in this exclusionary practice.

I am appalled. This is a role model for children?

PS: Thank you for the responses regarding the 1992 Longaberger Corn Basket for sale or trade. The basket is in excellent condition. I would like either $200 or a set of 3 Ivy mixing bowls.
