Oprah Almost Has Heart Attack When Machine Doesn't Count Her Vote

Talk show host Oprah Winfrey early-voted on Thursday, but apparently had problems getting the machine to accept her choice for president:

When I voted yesterday electronically, the first vote that you vote for on the ballot is the presidential candidate. It was my first time doing electronic, so I didn't mark the X strong enough, or I held down too long. Because then when I went back to check it, it had not recorded my presidential vote

When she noticed this had occurred, she almost had a heart attack (video embedded below the fold, h/t NBer Mazzi):

Too bad she noticed, huh?

Of course, if she hadn't, she probably would have blamed her voting difficulties on President Bush, Diebold, and those awful Republicans that are always trying to disenfranchise people.

Oh, brother

Did you check the *gasps* from the other three boobs on the panel while Oprah told her story?  Expect this on a nation-wide scale for WEEKS (?MONTHS?) after the McCain/Palin victory.  GASP!!!  Of course, that's what happened!  Oprah, me too!

Tex.... Exactly! You

Tex....

Exactly!

You ought to hear the calls lately on the Wa. Journal with the Obama supporter/bank they have had going for so long I just don't listen all that much anymore...one guy called this morning from Florida saying he kept pushing the button for Obama and it kept coming up for McCain, finally the moderator asked if he had any help from a poll worker and he said yes...blah blah blah....like who in their right mind even believes all this made-up hooey.

This is in the plans and has been for quite awhile now to use any old excuse to declare voter fraud, blame repubs, have endless recounts and lawsuits ect...

Of course nothing is any of the lefts fault...ever.

Yeah right...and pigs fly.

That's just BS Oprah - a political message, not a voting problem

Oprah just wanted to "Message" her "Dummy" audience members, and the Message was "Double check your vote" after you vote 

She had to throw in a little personal experience Drama, so the dummies would not feel like dummies when they voted.

Otherwise it would have just been a political statement . . .which I don't understand why she just didn't say, GO VOTE and "Be careful out there". 

The Republican Revolution will not be Televised

Can't push a button?

Sounds like Ambassador material to me.

Dumb down the process further

This again demonstrates that voting is just too difficult and complicated for the average voter. Look how hard it was for voters to punch a hole in a card?

PALIN/McCain 2008

The New World Order Cabal . . .

has waited for decades for us to get fed up with voting, vote counts, lawsuits, etc. They want to exhaust us out of wanting to vote at all. In 1991, a writer who managed entry to a Bilderberg meeting in 1991 wrote in an article for about the meeting in a then respectable French periodical, Le Francais. He quoted David Rockefeller's statement to those in attendance:

"We are greatful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subject to the bright lights of publicity during these years. But the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government which will never again know war but only peace and prosperity for the whole of humanity. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national autodetermination (emphasis added) practiced in the past centuries."

Autodetermination is voting for leaders. Now, they want us to beg them to chose our leaders because all of this deciding and voting is just too much trouble. Good thing we know how to fight back.

Looking forward to the Republican Revolution

Anyone serioulsy believe

Anyone seriously believe this BO - that's Bogus Oprah

Well at least she didn't claim the machine detected her blackness, and reset so that she needed the hands 'of a stevedore to PUSH THAT BUTTON.

Y'all be careful out there.

Vote 4 change. Vote 4 anything. See Jack & Mr Shy's first campaign ad for the ONLY viable 3rd party candidate.

My thought too Bauer

I was thinking that i wouldn't put it past some of these shills to claim that the machines can detect skin color.

 Hillarious.

  

Don't let this secret get out to Liberals and Democrats

I wouldn't mention this if I didn't know that Liberals don't read NB.  But since I know we're all in the fold... 

Voting Machines placed in majority Democrat districts have built in cephalochromoscopes. And they can identify Liberals to within a 0.0572 margin of error before the individual casts a vote by recognizing the erratic cephalic patterns of Liberals.  And I have, on good authority, that those machines are designed to automatically switch the votes of all Liberals. 

There is one way to fool the machine.  When the cephalochromoscope maps the voter's pattern, the voter feels some anxiety.  So if a Liberal feels anxiety while using a voting machine, he or she can be sure that it will automatically change their vote.  Thus in such cases, Liberals can only elect Obama by voting for McCain.  Its very ingeneous, but be sure and don't let this secret get out to any Liberals or Democrats.

LOL Jack. Actually I

LOL Jack.

Actually I figured when Noel wrote this:

Bush, Diebold, and those awful Republicans that are always trying to
disenfranchise people.

he actually meant to say disenfranchise black people!

BTW, this may sound dumb, but what's with all this "early" voting?

I don't remember this in previous elections.

I call B.S. on this. This

I call B.S. on this. This is Oprah already pushing the meme that if The Golden Child isn't elected, it's because of conservative dirty tricks, stolen election, racism etc.,etc. Evidently she allready has serious doubts.

Does anyone doubt that if she had "Oprah's Mass suicide day" on her show and the staff started passing around the kool-aid, her sheep like audience wouldn't even think twice? *glug glug glug*

Where does Oprah vote?

Doesn't Oprah vote in Chicago?  Who controls the administration of elections in Chicago?  I think she was more shocked her vote didn't count 4 times!

Voting in Chi-town

Makes for great television, but more likely is that Oprah let her imagination go wild with the experience and came across a great little manufactured anecdote to share with her audience.

She's a highly accomplished woman.  She couldn't possibly be as stupid as she just painted herself.

Racist

Oprah is a racist.  She masks it well but Oprah is a racist just like Obama, Obama's woman, Wright, J. Jackson, Al Sharpton et. al. and the irony behind her being a racist is that she got really wealthy off the people she hates inside...middle class, middle-aged women.  She puts on a good show, sure she gives away houses, cars etc. but that a really really small percentage of the money shes get to keep. 

Exactly Right, Shanghai

Oprah is and has always been a racist - the same kind of racist as Obama, Wright, Jackson, Sharpton, et al.  And maybe she really is too stupid to use a touch-screen voting system.  After all, the libs claim that these systems discriminate against blacks because blacks can't figure out how to use them.  I, on the other hand, have been voting this way for years.  It's simple.  Put your finger on the blank square next to your candidate's name, and an X will appear.  Anyone too stupid to figure that out probably shouldn't be voting at all.

And as far as Oprah "giving away" houses, cars, etc., that doesn't come from HER money.  They are donated for the PR value.  For example, every single one of the Pontiac G6's given away on her show one day came as a DONATION from Pontiac as a marketing gimmick. Pontiac sold a lot of G6's as a result of the publicity.  You don't think Oprah actually DRIVES a Pontiac, do you???

S.C.

I stand corrected on Oprah giving away stuff...thanks for pointing that out...

I'll rephrase it here: Oprah doen't give jackshit away to anyone, rather, her sponsors do. Oprah just takes and then turns around to bite the hand that feeds her. Hopefully, she will be going down with the rest of the liberal cabal after this election is over. I never liked her touchy feely show that much anyway.

Absolutely right! And it

Absolutely right!

And it took WEEKS for the real story about those Pontiacs to get out.  The  whole show was played as if SHE were paying for them!

I was furious about that; still am, and there are people who STILL believe she bought all those cars!

She's good with "other people's money."

Oh, and believe it or not, there were people who bi$%ched because the sales tax wasn't taken care of!!

As for Oprah being a racist.... If you haven't see this yet, check it out...she brags about all the white people that work for her (her staff is entirely white, except for one)!

Ms. Winfrey would rather lord it over white folks than provide good jobs to blacks.

Racist?  You decide.

Almost?

She almost had a heart attack? Damn. Can we get a repeat of the "experience" and see if she really does have a heart attack?

I demand real change - force a Democrat to speak the truth!

Or maybe Oprah's "near heart-attack" was due to the fact that she's carrying around an extra 50-or-so pounds.  That's gotta put some stress on her ticker.

Oprah's Upset

Opraha is probably trying to keep from a heart attack due to her audience and support declining from her blatant support of O'Bummer. When she refused to have Gov. Palin on her show she turned off many viewers. How is she going to handle the results of this election when McCain/Palin are elected? Oprah is just a very wealthy Liberal and I can't wait, if per chance O'Bummer is elected and he taxes her to death.

It Wasn't a Heart Attack!

Oprah didn't have a heart attack.  More than likely, she had what is known as an "Obamasm" right there in the voting booth.  Merely touching the Messiah's name on the screen sent her whole body into shock as the positive energy from The Great One surged through Oprah's body and she momentarily lost control - sort of the same thing that happens to Chris Matthews when he gets those tingles running up his leg at the mention of Obama.  It's a Liberal thing.

Buyer Beware

Although many liberals would like to make all voting machine "idiot proof", that is not ever likely to happen. Oprah is obviously not an idiot, so she double checked her vote, a precaution that was already built into the system. However, many, perhaps most democrats are idiots, this is why Oprah was careful to remind her audience to check to make sure that their vote had been recorded properly.

I wonder how many liberals check their change when making a purchase. I wonder how many liberals, test drive a car before purchasing it. I wonder how many liberals, date their fiance for a substantial period of time, before committing to marriage.

The same old common sense adage applies to voting as well as all of these other situations: "buyer beware".

Of course in a perfect liberal democrat world, there will be government bureaucrats to make sure that no one will ever take advantage of you and that every outcome will be equal, but until then, we must still verify certain things for ourselves, with our own eyes.

So Sad

It is so sad that she "almost" had a heart attack. What a great week in America it would have been if she had dropped dead and Obama losses the election. Liberal mourning and drinks all around.

Oprah too stupid to vote: Obama poster voter

 This is why the liberals always talk down to their voters as they are too stupid. I loved Oprah's reasoning in she pushed down too hard just like there is a weight limit on fat black women, but petite black women can vote with ease.

The reality probably is Oprah was hesitant in wondering if she really wanted to flush America down the drain with a perverted black male like the perverts in her family who molested her.
Freudian slip Oprah in voting.

I will bet there are starting with the Clintons going to be numbers of Freudian slip liberals who are going to be voting for McCain Palin as these liberals know Obama is the disaster who will destroy their political power in less than 2 years.

Did Oprah say which time this happened in her voting? The 20th time she voted in Chicago as Weezie Jefferson or the 27th time as Aunt Jemimah or the 33rd time Diana Ross or the 42nd time as Susie Pearle the night club singer who died in 1938.

Chicago Daley  Obama vote stealing politics and Oprah has tell the world the first ballot is rigged to register nothing so Mayor Daley can vote for Obama unanimously .

Waiting to Exhale

I lost a lot of respect for Oprah about 12 years ago.  She was hyping the movie "Waiting to Exhale" as the movie to go with your girlfriends to. 

I went with a group of friends. As a white woman I could not relate to any of the movie.  Whitney Houston's mother was encouraging her to continue an affair with a married man.  My mother would have disowned me.  Her mother lived in the slums while she had a successful career.  (Sounds like Obama) White women were negatively portrayed in the film.  One husband's left his black wife for a white woman.  The teenage son was caught it a sex act with a white girl. 

Oprah jokes all the time that she has all these white woman working for her.
