By the way I would be happy to mind my own business as soon as the loony left stops telling me what to do.
But you want to tell Oprah how to spend her money.....

Personally I find it in VERY poor taste that you're cavorting off to a Christmas party when so MANY are homeless this season..... and to dare to mention it on a PUBLIC forum at that.....but hey, far be it from me to point out your hypocrisy

No.



But you and the OP want to tell that black friend of Obama's what to do with her money.... I think that's the whole "How DARE SHE" theme of this thread. It couldn't be anything as silly as worrying about what the homeless watch on TV
