Re: Pastor Defends Paula Deen.

Scott,
Have you read some of the details of the lawsuit filed against this woman?

Some of the details are so egregious that, either the accuser is a bald-faced liar or we never really knew Paula Deen, her brother, or anyone connected to the executive leadership of her financial empire.

Some of the accusations are so blatant, that it wouldn't take much of anything to disprove them-- that is if they really aren't true.

I thought by now that at least one of her long term black employees would have come forward to defend her reputation publicly, but not one has done so.


In fact, the only black person I've read of publicly coming to her defense is none other than the Rev. Jesse Jackson.

Yes, Rev. Jesse Jackson has publicly defended and aligned himself with Paula Deen.

I know that.

Lisa Jackson, white female, made racial accusations, then publicly stated that her lawsuit isn't really about the "n" word. Nevertheless, you should read her accusations that are race related.

Either Lisa Jackson is a fantastic liar, or Paula Deen and her brother are racist-- not racially prejudiced, simply racist.

Personally, I think the race-related accusations are so over the top, that it will be fairly easy to disprove.

But where are the black people that has worked for her and her company for 10, 15, 20+ years? Why haven't ANY of her employees come forward to support her?

How was she able to turn to Rev. Jesse Jackson, to have him publicly support her?

I will state that one of the racial accusations include forcing black employees and white employees to use different entrances.

Re: Pastor Defends Paula Deen.

OK

The question now is has Paula shown enough contrition?

Has she made any actions that shows she is truly repentant, perhaps a scholarship to a black young man, or to a black institution, showing that she is trying to make amends.

Has she enrolled in a race sensitive class?

Re: Pastor Defends Paula Deen.

Thanks, Scott. Paula Deen seems to be being railroaded over this for some bigger agenda.
