It's bad enough I have to see so-called "Dr." Phil doing sleep-aid commercials (Relaxium or whatever it's called?)

Now he's also doing CarShield commercials. Didn't he make enough money from his stupid talk show? It's way past time for him to get off my TV and retire.

It seems like everybody and their brother are doing CarShield commercials these days, although I have to admit I like the one with Ice T and Vivica A. Fox that looks like they're doing an autopsy of a car.

I blame Oprah for forcing this clown and Dr. Oz upon us and calling Ghouliani "America's Mayor." She can retire too. I apologize to all the Oprah fans out there, but I got over her years ago.

I've been blaming Oprah for years for unleashing those 2 quacks on us. I remember some people on DU thought she should run for president many years ago. Yuk! Not me!

Not saying it isn't true, it's just I don't remember it. What I do remember is Republicans saying that Democrats wanted Oprah to run for president even though I never heard a single Democrat ever say that and she herself said she had no wish nor intention to do so. It was then that I realized that Republicans just make shit up in their heads and then state it as fact with no proof whatsoever. Just like DJT does now.

What is it he says? Something like "That's the truth, the facts and the hope." Like hell.

Oprah gave us Dr Oz and Dr Phil. They we featured so often on her shows that each of them finally got their own programs. She also gave us Marianne Williamson, her "spiritual advisor" who thought she was qualified to run for president. And don't even get me started on Oprah's "interview" with Harry and Meghan during which they told eighteen uncontested lies.

God, the woman has been such a gift to our country.
