Why in the fuck would this person have so many sponsors to begin with?

Home Depot??? Why the shit would they pay this person for an endorsement?

I am so confused, I didn't even know who this was before this whole thing....

If like Brad Pitt or Bill Gates did something like this it would be newsworthy.

Why is this newsworthy? Who gives a shit about this particular person, seriously.....who gives a shit about this person lol, it is such a joke, who is this bitch.
 
So I'm guessing the media is just going to focus on what she said and not on how she and Bubba treated her employees, which is far more damning, right?

One fell swoop. Conservation of energy applies to public outrage too.

Why is Carter debasing himself by even commenting on tabloid celebrity shit.

My guess is someone asked him. Hell, they're all down in Jaw-ja, and since she's a well known figure down there and there's new controversy, someone probably asked him to comment, and he felt obligated to be kind. Carter is a really good dude.

edit: yep
Carter was asked about a number of issues in the interview. The Carter Center in Atlanta is hosting a human rights forum this weekend promoting the role of religion in advancing women's rights.

Home Depot has an expansive kitchen section. A celebrity chef endorsement can go a long way there.
 
I bet eznark is crushed. I think there is some code from racists like him you don't ever say that word when in front of non-whites. Poor libertarians on this board.

No disrespect, but just because you don't know who she is, doesn't mean that there are not millions of people who do and care about her (whether positively or negatively) in some way.

I am not a fan of Paula Deen (my mom was, before this came to light), but I do feel bad for her in a way. Still, I think what she said and the way she allegedly treated her black employees is wrong and unacceptable.

It seems that she has a glamorous view of the South during the 'slavery years'. It seems like she wishes she could have lived through that time. Slaves = like family, does not compute!
 
In this country if you're likeable, you can say the most damning thing and people will fight for you; it's ridiculous. Corporate America isn't touching her because she's too hot right now but once all this blows over she'll be right back to doing what she was doing. I also don't like how she went on The Today Show making up excuses, putting blame on other blacks for calling each other the N word which isn't the same N word she using. The N word with the -er is completely different. I hate how she had all these slavery fantasies/fetishes. To me that's real disturbing.
