NIGGER NIGGER NIGGER

[HairOfTheDog]

I have now lost all sympathy for Deen.

Asking Jesse on how to be a better whitey is worse than using "nigger" as an insult.

I now hope her empire crumbles.

I really do.

Well, she tried to ask Oprah, but...

I don't think Paula Deen called Jackson for advice about how to be a better whitey. I think reaching out to him was a gesture to show the public that she's making efforts to grow/learn, and she probably hoped that Jackson would make a public comment in support of her. He did. It was a good rational statement, imo, and that's probably about all she'll get there.

This clip from the Today Show on Friday is just plain pitiful, imo. So pitiful that I almost couldn't re-watch it and laugh again (and I don't feel one way or the other about Paula Deen and what she said). Paula should shut up now; she's starting to go the Tammy Faye way. Just stop begging, breathe, and start working on a comeback plan.
