Oprah Winfrey to Bring Her Show to D.C. for Inaugural Week
Access Hollywood gets the credit for the big scoop that Oprah Winfrey has announced she will bring her wildly popular television show to Washington for the presidential inauguration. The media magnate said she will broadcast from the Kennedy Center's Opera House during the week of Jan. 20.
Washington is "the place to be,” she told the entertainment program.
The New York Times says Oprah will tape one show here for sure on Jan. 19, and then likely one more show that week, though the date is not yet confirmed. We'd put our money on Jan. 21.
We can almost hear her introducing her first show broadcast from our fair city now ...
"Hellooo DEE-CEEEEEeeeee!"
Information about how to get tickets will be posted on Oprah.com next week.

I want to get in that audience. Daddy needs a new car, TV, washer/dryer, computer, nav system, leather duffel bag, sweater and/or champagne glasses.

I feel like I am about to witness the meeting of the Key Master with the Gate Keeper. I can't wait for the Stay Puft Man to show up! I love me some s'mores!

I predict a booming business for Cakelove, Ledo's, and stores selling home decorating and weight-loss books.

I think I'm going to be sick ... Why can't we get Tyra in here instead?! We could televise the whole inauguration on her forehead!

DC and Obama have officially jumped the shark.
What a bunch of delusional nutjobs. I'm hopeful Obama will improve things with his magic wand and cult-like following, but I'm not betting on it. In fact, I think he's likely to screw things up even worse.

Oprah broadcasts show from DC = DC and Obama have jumped the shark
There's some 'logic' for you. And what does 'jump the shark' even mean in this context?
In any case, I'm glad you made it 'official' so that we're all on the same page.

No, you're not. If he's successful you won't be able to trot out your obnoxious little phrases like "delusional nutjobs" and "cult-like following" or say, "I told you so."
