My Comments (88 so far…)

If you could be a superhero - one not already in existence - what would your special powers be? What would your name be?

My superpower would be to heal the body, spirit and souls of people as well as the dastarly things going on in the world. I’d all my self “The Healer”.

Should 70-year-old women be given in-vitro fertility treatments?

You have to think of the child here. Is it fair for a baby to have such an old mother. When this child is 10-mom will be 80. Can you imagine dealing with a pre-teen or teen when your in your 80’s? That’s just to old in my opinion. Imagine this child introducing it’s mother to their friends. That’s alot to strap onto a child. Who is going to be taking care of whom? I say NO! Stick with women under 40 please.

If you had a genie in a bottle, what three wishes would you make?

My first wish would be that hearts are healed from pain, bitterness and all suffering. My second wish would be for peace and prosperity for all. My third wish would be that all diseases could be healed and all pain relieved.

What advice do you have for Michelle Obama?

Be more of a lady. To me she seems more like one of the guys and not feminine at all. More pastel colors too might help but most of all-remember that you are a female and we expect our first ladies to be just that-a lady in every aspect of the term. Be a bit old fashioned in your mannerisms. It’s expected by many of us. I suppose alot of people like her the way she is but I just don’t care for her “style”. I want to see her support her man by being subtle in public.

The Smiths' Dilemma

I say give them to a couple who is unable to conceive in any way. There are so many out there that would love to be parents but just can’t. Give someone the chance of a lifetime and forget about it. Give them the blessings of parenthood.

Have you changed religions in your lifetime? If so, why?

In a word-No. I have changed doctrines but no my faith. I am a Christian. Nothing will change that. I go to different churches but that is all doctrin.

Are you in favor of the death penalty in the United States?

I voted yes. I would like to see the offenders get the death sentence as quickly as possible too. Why let them linger in the system. Just do it and get it over with. It’s up to God anyway but if I had to choose-I say YES!

What television show do you miss the most?

The Waltons’s and Touched By An Angel

Would you feel safe with a woman as commander in chief? Why or why not?

We need to stop focusing on man or woman, young or old, black or white and start focusing on the issues. That’ what’s really important. What does this “human” plan on doing if they are in the oval office as president.

Whoopi the Decoder Finds Out Why We Get 'Taxed up the Behind'

Thank you Ms. Goldberg for this interview. Our tax system sucks big time that’s for sure.It seems like the people who could use a tax break are the ones that seem to be out the most. That’s just not right and all these hidden taxes on our bills suck. We need to restructure our tax system. We need to also get something for the taxes we pay.To much of our tax money is wasted. We need some accountability.

If you were a household appliance, what would you be?

A teakettle because I can stand the hot water. I’ve been thru enough of it.

First Kiss

My first kiss? Jerry Cantor! He was much older. I was 10 and he was probably 16 or 17. We were at summer camp together. He took be behind two cabins and we talked and laughed and kissed often. AHHHHHHH youth!

What is your best recipe?

I’m one of those people who has a great recipe for anything. Just as my kids. I can bake and cook. I have a great recipe for cheesecake and chocolate truffle torte. I’m the type of person that you call when you need a recipe. I’ve written 3 cookbooks.

Which award acceptance speech do you most often make in the shower?

For me it’s the oscar but I wouldn’t mind receiving all of them. Thank you thank you thank you-please no applause…I would like to thank….
