Default Re: Say what you want about Oprah...

I know about being poor. Pawn your wedding ring to feed your kids kind of poor. (Yes, I actually did that.) I ran the food drive at the middle school one year, then left the boxes in the car of the "delivery parents." I saw them all an hour later. They'd put my family's name on the list. I cried in the kitchen, torn between total humiliation and gratitude. Those were bad years.

I mention all that in order to express an opinion with a little credibility. I don't "think I know how I'd feel," I DO know how I'd feel.

I wouldn't give a flying fuck what the rich bitch is getting out of giving food to my family. All I'd care about is whether or not my kids ate. Hell, point a camera at me and I'll do white trash gratitude and whore like crazy to make this rich woman look good.

Less taxes for her? Fine.
Big "ups" in the publicity department for her? Fine.
Whatever else she gets out of it? Don't give a shit.

My kids got fed. All I'd care about.
