Oprah: Racism Does Exist! Even I Can See It!

Even the most famous celebrity in the world gets treated like she's second class!

Loserville has now focused on the world's richest Black woman as their next target.

Oprah Winfrey is the world's most recognizable celebrity. But in the city of Zurich, Switzerland, she's just another Black person who's not able to afford the luxuries of those who actually have a Swiss account.

FOR PETE'S SAKE, THAT'S OPRAH! THE QUEEN OF DAYTIME! YOU CAN'T MISS HER!

The Queen of Daytime has shared her thoughts on President Barack Obama, Trayvon Martin, those folks over at Loserville, the usage of NIGGER and the incident in Switzerland.

There's probably Oscar buzz surrounding her with her role as Gloria Gaines in the movie The Butler. That movie is probably a shoe in for the Academy Awards. She will be at the White House along with former president Bill Clinton.

They will receive the Medal of Honor Award by the president.

But with all the success and being if not one of the richest woman in the world, Oprah has opened up about incidents that touched her in America and over in Europe.

The first thing was the issue with Trayvon Martin. She heads over to Obama News and talks to the Grio's Chris Witherspoon about the verdict.

“It’s so easy during this time… Trayvon Martin paralleled Emmett Till, let me just tell ya. In my mind. Same thing. You can get stuck in that and not allow yourself to move forward and see how far we’ve come,” she said. “Look at the butler’s life. Look at that opening scene, the hanging… and then the end. We need to give ourselves a round of applause. In this country, with all of its injustices, look at what we’ve been able to do in the span of one man’s lifetime.”

That pissed off the conservative agitators. They've felt that Oprah should not of stuck her nose in the business of this matter. In their mindset, this matter had nothing to do with race. They believe that it's all reactionary race-baiting by the likes of her, the president, Attorney General Eric Holder and the Civil Rights leaders getting Blacks to hate Whites again!

That's probably why she also opened up about the possibility of President Barack Obama making a cameo appearance in a movie. She advocated that if he was to be featured (for even a second), those folks over at Loserville will hang him over the neck with it.

On a red carpet at the premiere of The Butler, she gets to an opportunity to talk with a reporter from the celebrity news agitator Extra. She weighs in.

No, he couldn't get Obama and you know, that's why Obama is our president because he knows not to go and get himself in a movie and be on LOSERVILLE everyday afterwards. Obama is very smart.

Yeah, that pissed off That Guy Who Helped Obama Win (aka That Scumbag On Loserville Added May Lose It Spot At 9pm). He goes on this monumental rant about how Oprah was some "radical" for attending the Trinity United Church of Christ in her earlier days. The reasons for this mentioning of the church was because that guy is still feuding with an old foe. He's been on this neverending onslaught against former pastor and motivational speaker Jeremiah Wright forever now.

He's been on this kick to have perennial losers Mitt Romney and John McCain to use this a weapon to defeat Obama during the previous elections. Unfortunately McCain's former running mate Palin Da Ass has been full steam ahead on this Jeremiah Wright fixation.

The notion of Trayvon Martin being mention by Black entertainers and the swipes at Loserville drive the White extremists insane. It drives them to the watering holes to bitch about how they're better than Oprah and how her brand has faded. Even taking shots at President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama and the Black community as a whole.

You now that being the most successful Black entertainer and entrepreneur also has it's downsides. Oprah discussed her feelings toward NIGGER and the meaning to it.

Rae Dawn Chong the daughter of famed stoner Tommy Chong had called her a "field Nigger". Oprah didn't take too kind to that.

Rae Dawn recently used the word in talking about Oprah herself. While Winfrey hasn't responded to her comments, she tells Parade in a new interview:

"You cannot be my friend and use that word around me."

"It shows my age, but I feel strongly about it ... I always think of the millions of people who heard that as their last word as they were hanging from a tree."

"I don't use the word. Never did."

Oprah was interviewed with The Butler co-star Forest Whitaker and director Lee Daniels, who admits, "It's a word I used quite a bit, until Oprah sat me down."

"She talked to me about its power."

Still you would think off all these incidents, Oprah would be respected overseas. Nope.

The Washington Post reports that the tourism bureau of Switzerland had apologized for an incident that involved a worker at Trois Pommes, a pricey Zurich boutique, refused to show her a $38,000 handbag, telling one of the world’s richest women that she wouldn't be able to afford it. Winfrey earned $77 million in the year ending in June, according to Forbes magazine.

Oprah was at a wedding for her friend, entertainer Tina Turner. Turner revoked her American citizenship and now lives her life in Switzerland. She invited Oprah to her wedding. Oprah explains that even though she found interest in the handbag, the clerk refused to sell it.

“She said: ‘No, no, no, you don’t want to see that one. You want to see this one. Because that one will cost too much; you will not be able to afford that,’” Winfrey, appearing on the celebrity agitating news program Entertainment Tonight, quoted the clerk as saying. “And I said, ‘Well, I did really want to see that one.’ And she refused to get it.”

She brought up the incident during an interview about her new movie, “Lee Daniels’ The Butler,” which opens next week and focuses on civil rights and race relations in the U.S. She was asked to open up about her own experiences with discrimination.

Swiss tourism officials and the boutique owner were quick to offer apologies Friday.

“We are very sorry for what happened to her, of course, because we think all of our guests and clients should be treated respectfully, in a professional way,” Daniela Baer, a spokeswoman for the Swiss tourism office, told The Associated Press.

The tourism office also posted an apology on Twitter, saying, “This person acted terribly wrong.”

The newspaper Blick described the bag as a crocodile-leather Tom Ford design named for actress Jennifer Aniston, a fan of the American designer. It quoted Goetz as saying the bag was priced at 35,000 Swiss francs.

Boutique owner Trudie Goetz told Swiss public broadcaster SRF that she believed the incident was a misunderstanding when the store clerk, who is mainly an Italian speaker, explained how expensive the bag was.

“I’m very sorry about this incident,” Goetz said. “And this can only happen because of a communication problem and a misunderstanding.

“The shop assistant apparently asked her (Oprah) if she would like to see the bag, but she apparently said ‘No, I just want to look’. And then she (Oprah) asked how much the bag costs and she (the employee) told her how much the bag was.”

Goetz added that “I believe she rather said something like ‘we have some less expensive’ — ‘we also have some less expensive bags’ and not ‘it’s too expensive for you.’ ”

Winfrey was in Switzerland to attend the wedding of her longtime friend Tina Turner, who has lived in Zurich for many years and has been quoted saying how much she enjoys living among the Swiss. Turner was granted a passport earlier this year, a process that typically takes years.

Maybe in a country like Switzerland, you would like among the most friendliest. I guess not. Even Tina Turner didn't see this one coming.

But even if you're Oprah Winfrey, in the mind of White Extremists she'll always be something that doesn't describe her. And for them, it's more than all the money she's earned in her lifetime.

So what's your thoughts on this situation?
