Florida Hicks To Boycott Oprah

I write to you all today from the sunshine state where it seems The Florida Federation of Republican Hicks Women are all in an uproar because Oprah refused to have McCain's running mate, Gov. Sarah Palin on The Oprah Winfrey Show.

"Women in Florida helped build Oprah into the icon she is today," Linda Ivell, President of the FFRW said in a statement. "We are deeply disappointed in Ms. Winfrey's decision to sit out the greatest political moment in the history of women since suffrage."

Oprah's written response in a statement:

"At the beginning of this presidential campaign when I decided that I was going to take my first public stance in support of a candidate, I made the decision not to use my show as a plat for any of the candidates,"

Ever since supporting Obama, republicans have been itchin for a reason to boycott the show. Is this the best they could come up with? I'm sure Oprah is hardly concerned about this boycott at this stage in her career.
