Her food wasn't something I ever tried to make...I think I would feel too guilty to put a tub of butter in a cake batter. So. Even though I wasn't her number one fan to begin with, I think the media has pulled this along too far.<br /><br />Her comments were wrong and her actions inexcusable.<br /><br />But let's face it, when Jay-Z spits the N-word out into his microphone without a care in the world, it's accepted as valid and to make a point...Really? What point is Jay-Z making by using the N-word? The only point he's made is that there is a double standard in society. He's teaching young people to use that word and because there is no backlash for it, they deem it ok. <br /><br />No one ever asked him or other rappers for an apology or an explanation as to why he really needs to use the N-word...seriously, he can't rhyme any other words? However, the media worships him and Beyonce.<br />Yet, we all jump on this woman for admitting to using the N-word and now we're after her with pitchforks and won't let her get away with it until she has her livelihood taken from her, her family left disgraced and she is living in a gutter.<br /><br />So to those Anonymous comments, I'd like to know, do you listen to rap music? Do you worship Jay-Z & Beyonce like the rest of them? Do you listen to Nicki Minaj & Drake & Kanye? If so then guess what? You're a hypocrite. So, I hope you got your kicks on with your invalid remarks.<br /><br />I don't think what Paula Deen said was right, but we're harping on this too long. We have more important issues in the country right now, and we're getting all up in arms over Paula Deen.<br /><br />It's amazing how tasteless people can be in choosing their words.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10426777470209507504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821404280357387696.post-33994426922236660342013-06-25T18:42:42.527-04:002013-06-25T18:42:42.527-04:00Again, I thank you.

Food Network started out with a real person. They coaxed her, encouraged her, and molded her to their liking. Like so many other shows, Real Housewives-I'm looking at you, the networks take people and dangle a fantasy in front them. Paula took the bait and grew into the character she is today. She did not start out this way. IMO, FN sat back with a smirk while their wallet got fat. Paula's did too so, she stayed.<br /><br />I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one who sees this like a marriage gone bad. FN wanted a divorce but not until they covered their ass with a whole new life. FN gets to start over, Paula is on her own. They GAVE her all she needed to support herself, right? SMDH<br /><br />I am not willing to call her any names based on a deposition, either. Depositions are under oath but are not conducted in an impartial setting. The whole goal is for the opposing side to get you to say words they can use against you. I think either Paula's attorneys failed her or she failed herself. Whichever. I don't think anyone should be fired over that. I think waiting for a ruling to be handed down by a judge to make that move would be much more fair.<br /><br />But this is FN, they have dumped their cash cows for far less, in the past. FN does not see what they have done to so many others, is exactly what they are doing to themselves. FN has a huge ego and I can't wait to see THEIRS implode. Eye for an eye... It's only fair.<br /><br />As far as the lawsuit, which has been ongoing for 2 years now, where are the other depositions? I may have missed those. I've read the complaint but haven't seen her deposition. Or Bubba's for that matter. Why only Paula's? Something in this water ain't clean.<br /><br />In fairness, we are ALL talking about something we have very little factual information about. I refuse to judge a person, any person, for telling the truth or giving their opinion with the information they have to form that opinion. Truth and opinions are subjective to individuals, experiences, and time/age. <br /><br />I could be wrong. It wouldn't be the first time.

Yeah, I think she's a racist and I also think she's not very smart and I believe that FN participated and encouraged her craziness. Everything was fine with them until her racist behavior became commonly known.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821404280357387696.post-33303267633765773042013-06-25T10:09:19.654-04:002013-06-25T10:09:19.654-04:00Rosie, my friend, if you had a LIKE button, I woul...Rosie, my friend, if you had a LIKE button, I would click it!tortietastnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6821404280357387696.post-48539813297970609972013-06-25T09:47:34.398-04:002013-06-25T09:47:34.398-04:00Rosie,
