Oprah Winfrey On XM Radio

Oprah has an XM radio show where she and Gail dish
whatever's on their minds. Sounds pretty boring to me,
and I haven't heard the whole show myself,
but TMZ says Gail calls Oprah "Mommy" on the show.
Huh? And ya'll not together? Umm....OK.
I'm just saying, were Oprah a man, would Gail call her "Daddy"?
Anyway,
there's this snippet from the show on TMZ where Oprah is
talking about how, as a child, her grandmother had hoped she
would be able to get a job cleaning houses for good white folk,
cause they would give her good clothes and food to take
home and how she wishes her grandmother was around
to see her, now that she got all these good white folk working for
her, and how she has "good white folk clothes" now, too. She
even got the nerve to crow about having only one Black person in her
employ! She talks about all the "good white folk" she got working
for her, saying "there's good white folk everywhere you look."
And you should hear the voice she uses when she says it.
All she needs is the BlackFace and a pair of white gloves.
Listen to it for yourself.
