After Sandy I worked at a relief center and one day Paula showed up. She brought 100 hams and 100 smiles. She so gracious and sweet we all loved her....Please write the Food Channel and let them know how you feel about this ridiculous move.

I respect your opinion, Coach. This thread is a disgrace. For a bunch of conservatives, most of these posters are sounding just like progressives -- if they don't agree with a person politically, then they are unconcerned with her First Amendment rights.

They say you know a person by their enemies. So let's see:

Bill Clinton trashed Lani Gunier, potential Supreme Court nominee
Dubya trashed Martha Stewart, CEO of a large media corporation
Obama trashed Paula Deen, cooking show hostess

Contract renewal, i.e. freedom of contract, a laissez-faire conservative cornerstone, is unrelated to freedom of speech.

Everyone here knows that residence on the liberal plantation comes with a tight restriction on speech.

The surprise of liberals who discover that rule too late helps demonstrate that conservatism is the better way.

For example, the next budding food media entrepreneur might consider approaching Rush or Glenn first.
