Quote from: EMAWmeister on December 18, 2014, 09:58:39 AMMO is great. I don't know how anyone could hate her.I don't know enough about her to hate her. She's just kinda there, you know? I know she wants our kids to eat healthy, while her husband is a chain smoker, but that's about it.
MO is great. I don't know how anyone could hate her.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.
Quote from: Rage Against the McKee on December 18, 2014, 09:39:08 AMI didn't see anywhere in anything you quoted that she claimed to be mistaken for a Target employee.You're right, but I'm confused as to why else she would now cite this story as an example of racism. She's claiming that the woman asked for her help because she is black, right? That she wouldn't have asked a white woman for help? That doesn't make any sense.It seems likely that the reason the woman asked for help is exactly as Michelle described it to Letterman - she's tall, the other woman was short. The woman even joked "you didn't have to make it look so easy."So can someone please explain the racism here?

I guess that's possible. Seems like a stretch.
The implication is clearly there that mistaking MO has a store employee was in fact racism.That's what we've become; innocuous, every day things that happen all across the country every day, are somehow racist if the situation occurs to certain people.A sorry state of affairs.

I was mistaken for a target employee once. I was wearing khaki shorts and a red polo, and some lady came up to me and asked if we had something (don't remember what she was looking for). I just shrugged my shoulders and said I have no idea. The lady looked angry and probably told the manager about me.
First lady has to be about the worst job on the planet. That is a good point, CF3. Imagine planning an entire day around a trip to Target. It would be like living in Meade and planning a big Saturday shopping in Dodge City.
When's the last time you clicked on a people magazine link before today?
Why does K-S-U read People magazine? Seems weird.
