Two places where the camera doesn't roam.

I'm not saying it was said...just that we shouldn't dismiss her statement out of hand.
After her accusations of racism (on camera) during the "calling the kettle black" incident, I'd take anything spewing out of her mouth with a grain of salt!

Oh, give me a break. She's out there claiming racism at the drop of a hat. Pot/Kettle, etc.

When someone screams "racism" for stupid things like that, I find it hard (no, actually, impossible) to believe a claim that someone called her the "n-word" when -- gasp! -- no one else was around.



Reminds me of that pol that was forced to resign after (correctly) using the word '*********' a few years ago...

She's trying to extend her 15 minutes, and using race baiting to do it. Plain and simple.

I couldn't have said it better myself just give it a few months and trust me the media and everyone else will stop talking about this woman and she will fade back into obsecurity where she belongs.

Yeah, it's just like the boy who cried wolf.

If she is going to consider "the pot calling the kettle black" a racial slur, then no one is going to believe her if she is ever actually called a racial slur.

Making such silly accusations like she did not only hurts her credibility, but I'd imagine it also hinders other people who have actually experienced racism from being taken seriously. Kind of like the few women who've made up being raped cause all rape victims to be doubted.
