No really...why is Dr Phil / Oprah popular?

[javaguru]

Apparently, common sense is so rare in this country that people consider people who dispense it "life experts." Amazing, PT Barnum was right.....

Dr. Phil and Oprah are popular because many people can't think for themselves.

Dr. Phil is a stupid fuck. Like when those crazy ass kids come on the show...you know, who rape their sisters and kill birds and stuff. He ends up scolding the parents telling them they need to quit their job and spend more time with the kid, bla bla bla. What a stupid fuckbag. Most of his shit is pointless to.

not to mention those idiots who go to him to try and lose weight

"How can I lose weight?"
"Suzy, it's not easy. You can't just lose weight. You have to want to lose it"

and everybody things he's the messiah. Fucking rednecks

oprah understood the formula for the typical female daytime viewer and it has made her a fourtune - what is it? - never hint that any woman should take personal responsibility for their problems - find someone/something to blame other than the individual recognizing that they are getting some kind of 'reward' for their being fat (in fact stand up for yourself and be proud) - all men are dogs and they really are the reason for all the problems that women encounter in realationships, yada, yada, yada - you get the picture - now dr.full of shit phil is a fat man telling people how to lose weight - a man that has comitted adultry that is telling people to 'heal' their relationships and be faithful - in other words he is what most ministers, church goers, and politicians are - a two faced piece of crap but you see the viewer identifies with that - they identify with dr.full of shit phill and get satisfaction in judging someone else and avoid looking at their own crappy life...

they reflect and support...the typical American value scheme. Of things..
they reflex a well rounded American and there values...
and DR Phil. is right it is the Parents fault there children are fucked up..
and yes that is simple common since.... most parents don’t have a clue..
how to make rules and stick to them...... How many fat people are there and skinny..
they cant make rules for themselves and stick to them either…..
…….people should have to pass a test before they are allowed the right to have children..
………………or not …….
