Should Dean's life be ruined for saying the N-word 30-40-50 years ago?

[DiamondDave]

Of COURSE you have people or the government pursuing this

Funny how the extreme lefties don't complain when after 30, 40, 50 or 150 years.. things like Affirmative Action still go after people for actions that long ago.. even if the people were not alive for segregation, for slavery, etc

Not to mention calls for reparations

 

[tinydancer]

Jesus people. 22 fucking pages over some bullshit.

She said stupid shit, she got fired for it. Give it a rest

Decades ago Gramps. That's why there is all this hullabaloo about this issue. Deen used the N word decades ago.

How many of you libs and dems would support the firing of Maher and Letterman for calling Sarah Palin and Michelle Bachman *****, and Palin's daughter a slut?

SO many things wrong with this here apples/oranges...

1. Black servants at a wedding are not political public figures;
2. None of the euphemisms you speciously listed are racial;
3. Paula Deen is not a comedian;
4. Your premise is shaky. As you'll see if you actually look them up first. But go ahead -- fetch links.

Failure.

She'll get back on tv somewhere if she wants to. I'm guessing it will be on one of the country music channels or RFDtv, something like that.

And that makes it OK?

Is there any wonder why everyone thinks you're a moron?

You are barely literate.

Apparently I'm literate enough that you can understand what I posted.

They weren't "servants" turd. They were employees. And there isn't a shred of evidence the accusation is true.

2. None of the euphemisms you speciously listed are racial;

So only turds like you get to decide which bad words can end a person's career and which can't?

3. Paula Deen is not a comedian;

So liberal comedians are allowed to behave like pigs?

4. Your premise is shaky. As you'll see if you actually look them up first. But go ahead -- fetch links.

You mean the premise that people should be held to equal standards of behavior is shaky? Unfortunately, in this world of political correctness, it is.

Did you read either Deen's testimony or Lisa Jackson's (her accuser) testimony given at the deposition?

I think not. This is all bullshit hype based on allegations and not testimony.

Here's the woman's testimony who is trying to shake Paula Deen down. Under oath.

In the plaintiff’s own words

In Jackson’s deposition taken Feb. 11, she recounts how Dora Childs, an employee at The Lady & Sons, told her “probably sometime in 2010” that she felt discriminated against when a white male kitchen manager was promoted over her, adding, “and that Paula made racist comments.”

Deens’ attorney, Franklin, asked Jackson: “You have never heard Paula make a racist remark, have you?”

“Not heard it,” Jackson replied.

“You have never known Paula to discriminate against a person based on gender, have you?”

“I’m not aware.”

“And you have never known Paula to sexually harass anyone, have you?”

“Not me.”

Fingerboy brings The Stupid. Or as the rest of us call it, "Monday"...

1. it doesn't matter whether it's true; it's the basis of the specious comparison.
2. Again, the whole issue, if it is an issue, is Deen making racial judgements. None of the poster's specious comparisons are racial. Ergo apples/oranges.
2a. Duh.
3. Comedians skewer people. Especially public figures (see #1). That's not what Deen was doing, even if all the allegations are true -- nor are they public figures.
3a. Double duh.
4. No, I mean the premise of "calling Palin's daughter a slut". Have yet to see it. For that matter, we haven't seen the Bachmann reference either.

Talk is cheap. As you obvioulsy know.

Don't need to. The poster compared the allegations with comedians skewering public figures. If the allegations themselves are specious, that makes his comparison even more worthless. I gave him the benefit of the doubt to show how he was "at best" totally wrong.

I don't really care what's in the deposition. She's a fucking TV cook who's contract was not renewed -- this site will not permit me to post the word "YAWN" large enough. As news items go, "trivial" does not begin to describe the import of this fake story the media feed the proletariat with while actual serious things are going on.

When good people have their reputations and their careers destroyed due to someones idea of what is politically correct, it is a big story.

when the personal destruction is always against one political philosophy and the other side gets away with exactly the same kinds of remarks with no negative actions, it is a big story.

This is just more political targeting, like the IRS, AP, and Fox news attacks. when the govt is able to use the media, the courts, and pressure on corporations to destroy their opponents, it is a big story.

Personally, I don't give a crap about Paula Deen, but political PC targeting must stop.

Hypocrisy is never a big deal for libturds. It's their stock in trade.

Totally unfair if you ask me...any scale, sense of history, or balance left? And our media suqs...lol

you know i really haven't followed that story. is that what it was like 40 years ago? Wow! Now i am really blown away by all the attention it is getting and the reaction by the food network. Totally ridiculous.

This is not a political story, regardless how many message board hacks go sniffing around to find out what Paula Deen's fucking voter registration says. It just isn't, nor is the gummint involved outside of your conspiracy comic books. This is nothing more than the PC-itis version of Girls Gone Wild, a news theater soap opera for the easily amused, and that's all it is. In the ocean of Things That Matter, this won't even get your feet wet. Celebrity sniping. Yawn.

Who the fcuk is Kate Gosselin?? Who cares??
Going by the description in the linked article, it's not a "racist gesture" anyway. Some gadfly writer using a stretch to fabricate a story where none exists. As one of the comments below it says, "it's just a lame way for the Huffington Post to give her some press". As another says, "lighten up, world".

Still got nothing to do with Politics.
