I watched his show once about 'interracial marriage' I picked up on something...check it out:
1st guest- Young girl/woman (white) engaged to a black man. Her mother was upset about this and wanted her to think about consequences such as what would happen if (god forbid) she ended up having mixed race grandchildren. Dr Phil tried to facilitate communications between them.
....comercial break....
2nd guest- Adult woman from a mixed race relationship. She has very 'black' features hair/ ect but was raised by her white mother, in a white neighbourhood with no contact with her fathers side of the family. Her father was not even part of her life growing up or now. She has huge self esteem issues and hates herself. She says she so mixed up about her 'identity'. Dr Phil tried to 'help her'...bla bla bla
OK It was my observation that the 2nd womans problems OBVIOUSLY had more to do with her father abandoning her and her lack of connection with her culture as a child. DUH

Dr Phil didnt even touch on that...he kept going on about the mixed race thing.
Is he really that dumb, or is he a conciously sneaky racist?

Oprah, Hmmm interesting....well I wonder what she would have thought of this paticular show...I found it very un appealing.
And..lol..the poor girl who was the 1st guest probably got bawled out by her mom "Look do you want your kids ending up like that?" Gee. I didnt even watch his show for 2 yrs after that

To leap to a conclusion like that, you must be an incredible athlete. You should try out for the Olympic conclusion-jumping team.

If Dr. Phil was racist, then he would not have been so close to Oprah. Maybe he only likes black people with money. Is he a real doctor, anyway? When he first started to appear on Oprah, his title was 'life strategist' Phil McGraw. Then when he got a following, he suddenly became a 'doctor'.....

I am from the south and I know people who are racist, and in my opinion Dr. Phil isn't a racist. He's done several shows on how Missing minority children are overlooked in the media. When white children show up there is automatically huge media coverage... Oh and by the way he owes his fortune to Oprah Winfrey who made him famous, and her company produces his show.

I think he's probably a racist but tried to make it look like he was trying to help.

He is just trying to sell his show to make money, I dont think anyone is being helped there.

If you run out of reasons for disliking him, I'd go for his hillbilly accent. Annoying.
