All the TV talk show hosts, all the "journalists, all the public figures that are so quick to grab up that ever present race card and throw it down, they will just get quiet, let the dust settle, and go on to their next big story, with NO apology coming from THEM to Paula.......Thank God for all the thousands of people that have come forward, especially people of color, people that KNOW this lady on a personal level, that know she is no racist, have stood up for her, on her behalf, to support a person and friend they feel was maliciously maligned.....all over one lousy, hurtful, stupid, lie about a stupid, insensitive, mean spirited word. How utterly unfortunate.......I wish her dear "friend" Oprah, would have had the courage of HER convictions and stepped up and defended the person she thought Paula was. |
