It brings tears to my eyes. The day this first broke headlines on the news and right now.
I'll try to catch it tonight at 9. I heard the commercial this morning and made a note to check it out.

Janet is going to talk about the Super Bowl incident (which should be interesting).

Did anyone see yesterday's show with the former governor of NJ?

As a Jersey girl, you can imagine the states response when former Governor McGreavy called a press conference to make his announcement!

That was horrible! She is originally from Akron, Ohio. I went to highschool with her, She was such a beautiful girl I did not see the whole show. How many years in prison did they give to the animal that did this to her?

Red face Today on Oprah

Did anyone see Oprah today? She had an update on a young boy who was molested by his mother's boyfriend when he was little. The boy, who is an adult now, came onto Oprah today to tell her that his mother has decided to marry his molester!!!!

I simply could not believe that!!

I saw that episode. If they said how much prison time he got, I missed it. Her pics prior to the incident were so pretty. She was so positive about everything too, that got me. I just kept thinking the entire show "men are crazy". You go to somebody's job, with some gasoline in a Sprite can, pour it on them and set them on fire?! That is absolutely nuts. It has never been that serious for me.

Actually Ms. SKEE, I think people are crazy! I saw the previews for the show, and something very similar happened to a woman in Miami when I was there on vacation. I will probably get jumped for this, but without desensitizing the young lady's situation, women have been known to do the craziest things to a man (out of "love"). I hope any person (man or woman) would get the book thrown at them for act of violence like that. I just don't want this to be a "man-bashing" thing.

I did see this show. His mother is outragous!!!! I felt sorry for him because he wants to go to his sister's graduation and can't because that man will be there. Just like Oprah said, he doesn't have a mother anymore, at least not in the true sense of what a mother should be. His family members, if they care about him, will not allow his molester to be at family gatherings.
If someone did that to my kids......let's just say I would make the front page of the paper!!!!

^^ That is shameful. Hope he doesn't have any plans to "finish the job"... I just remembered the footage of the judge dropping the order of restraint...this poor woman has been dealt a bad hand all around. At least that judge is only on administrative duty now.
