Martha Stewart

[opera winfre]

What do you think of martha?
I think shes an american icon and a role model to women the world over.

[dot.hawkes]

doesn't she read the BBC news?

[opera winfre]

Not at all.
Those who take pride in their home and their cooking abilities know exactly who martha is.
Her recipe for crackling suckling pig is exquisite and her apple and pecan pie is just dreamy to taste.
Oh you are so uncultured.

[dot.hawkes]

I can't cook for toffee and i have someone come in and do the housework for me soz .

[opera winfre]

Tsk tsk.
Not exactly a homemaker are we?

[dot.hawkes]

Not now no, it's brilliant.

[tara20]

I think she's a pain in the neck.

[dot.hawkes]

who is she tara? Is it a daytime telly person?

[opera winfre]

Not exactly an extensive appraisal of her is it?

[bednobs]

isnt she the docotrs new assisstant in dr who??

[opera winfre]

Oh poor misguided women.
Forgive them they know not what they are missing.

[dot.hawkes]

no I don't think so i just watched that and the docu thing afterwards and don't remember that name, i don't think.

[dot.hawkes]

someone posted about her being the doctors assistant, where has that gone?

[tara20]

I saw her once on the Tonight Show . She's one of those awful women who have everything perfect, know exactly how to cook, bake,sew give household tips and generally get on your nerves. The kind all normal stressed out women love to hate. Mind you, she has other qualities, which got her found guilty of obstructing justice and lying to investigators over stock sales

so that's some consolation - not exactly a role model!

[opera winfre]

Actually many americans believe she was set up.
She is a very succesful businesswoman still.

Re: the removed post i think it may be related to the comment on the skin color of the assistant.

[tara20]

Would you buy a second hand car from her?

[opera winfre]

I dont think she sels them.
But id eat a slice or two of her apple and pecan pie .
Anyday all day long.

[tara20]

See link above. 89% of Americans agreed with the verdict at last count.

[opera winfre]

Even 89%of americans cant agree over iraq war so it does seem unlikely that 1 woman could unite them.
Perhaps she should run for president in that case?

[tara20]

Suppose it can't get much worse than the one they have!
