Welcome to our world Swiss Lady.
I’m shocked, shocked says I, that a racial provocateur like Winfrey would make such unfounded accusations.  Um, well, maybe not.   When the flame of a prog, any prog, begins to diminish – there is nothing out of bounds in their quest for more fuel.  Their own self-important sense of magnanimity is the driving influence behind all protestations.   The race-card is just one of the anchors they throw out to save themselves as they slip further down the slope of irrelevance.
