Poor, Poor Oprah

Oprah’s Heartache, Oprah is Devastated, Oprah, Oprah, Oprah. We have all read the headlines. I for one am getting really sick of hearing about it. Do these “journalists” realize that Oprah is NOT the victim? Those children are the victims. First their lives were stolen from them due to poverty. Now their lives have been destroyed due to wealth.

What did Oprah expect? She threw millions of dollars into this “project” and then was totally hands off. She didn’t look hands off during the “grand opening”; she didn’t look hands off as she was hugging all those girls. As a matter of fact no one heard anything about Oprah being hands off until the scandal. Before that you would have thought Oprah was there hammering nails, and laying floor tile.

I personally think that Oprah in incapable of being generous unless there is a movie camera present.

Do you realize that she could have built one hundred very good schools in that same area for the amount of money that she spent on just that one? Why so extravagant? If her motive was truly to help out a group of poor children she should have spent her money more wisely.

There are plenty of very generous people in this world that do not need a press conference every time they donate something. Oprah should try being one of those people.
