Teo | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 11:58 am  For anyone interested, I just heard that Cassandra will be interviewed on Fox News Channel "this hour." |
Lynnseamonkey | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:20 pm  Coming up soon.. saw a tease just now.. Thanks for the heads-up!! |
Teo | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:22 pm  Lynnseamonkey...No problem! *smile* |
Treestumpstud | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:47 pm  Cass conducted herself beautifully. White people want to see her crumble, yet she still stands tall with her head held high. That woman is so intelligent. White viewers are just not used to seeing that. They want a stereotype. |
Elisa | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:52 pm  I don't know what white people you're talking about but I'm white and a big Cass fan. I don't get FOX so if anyone has a transcript of the interview and could post it, I'd love to read it. |
Teo | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:53 pm  Treestumpstud: Where do you get an idea like that? I don't know of ANYBODY that wants to see Cassandra "crumble." And saying that white viewers want a "stereotype?" Huh? Where is this coming from? |
Battlestar | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:53 pm  Treestump---don't you get it yet!!!!....the white viewers LIKED Cassandra---they respect Cassandra---and they wish her no ill. Jamie is a stereotypical white beauty--and is wished ill by the majority of posters on just about every board ---please try to explain that one....It really ended up not being about race. If Cass and Jamie had been up for nomination together---Jamie would have been the one to leave---just as Karen left when Cass was nominated with her. |
Devildoll | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:53 pm  yes its too bad the moron viewers voted her out, i wouldnt have minded to see Cass win. |
Fazio | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:56 pm  Cass who? |
Battlestar | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 12:58 pm  unfortunately it is like being in a sporting event--Cassandra would have been in the final three---if she hadn't been in the pool with Curtis and Eddie. If she had been in there with Jamie or George and even Josh--she'd still be there. |
Chris | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 01:05 pm  Treestumpstud: > White people want to see her crumble Now that's a rather bigoted generalism, isn't it? > They want a stereotype. You seem to be the one stereotyping, here. |
Eddieluver | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 01:31 pm  Treestump: Perhaps you've taken on Geo's persona and whistle "If I only had a brain" a little bit too often dear. I love people who they are not for what they appear to be on the outside. It's inside what counts and Cass is a strong woman and she should be proud of that. I just wish she would have shown that on BB is all. You are not giving white people or people in general enough credit. I don't like Jamie and never have liked her. I would rather have had Cass win than her any day. Jamie is NOT a good example of what the average American woman in early twenties exemplifies. We're so much stronger and wiser and focused on reality rather than a dream all the time. Plus, all these opportunities she is letting go is just beyond selfish but I won't even start on that. Also, a lot of women are more into the fresh faced look than the caked on beauty look. I hate it that she's so superficial and that is the last image of a woman in the house the viewing audience will get. That distubs me to no end. |
Snogrl | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 02:35 pm  Hey Treestump, I wouldn't be surprised if you also think I voted for Will because he is black. Maybe that is your criteria for voting, but not mine. Cass deserved to stay for many reasons (and none of them are because she is black). I just wish she had been more open so I could have gotten to know her better (as much as you can "get" to know someone on tv). |
Russ702 | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 04:36 pm  Dorklover says he loves people for who they are, not outside appearances, then climbs up on the soapbox to trash Jamie solely on outside appearance. Now THAT is two faced at its best. Treestumpdumb should win an award for the most accurate screen name yet. The "Cass who" line might have been moderately funny the very first time you've ever heard it. No longer. I watch FOX all the time, but I still don't "get" it. |
Eddieluver | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 06:33 pm  Russ: Next time you're a woman then talk but until then keep your insulting mouth shut. It's really sad that people like you exist in this world. I've seen you on this board belittle others and haven't said anything but now the gloves are off. I wasn't jumping up on any box sweetheart I was clearly making an intelligent observation that American women aren't all like Jamie and I being one that is around her age would know about this. You don't know anything about me and to call me two-faced is ridiculous because I was only being truthful. Of course, I'm sure you would know nothing about that word. You're a sad little person but if you want to start up something I'll gladly finish it DEAR. Calling someone superficial has nothing to do with being two-faced. Perhaps you need to invest in a dictionary and soon before it's too late. |
Eddieluver | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 06:36 pm  Russ oh and for your information your since I'm sure your little brain can't comprehend it I'm a WOMAN! I wouldn't talk about women in the manner I did above if I wasn't. Plus, oh never mind I won't go on with this anymore. You're a waste of my time. Until we meet again little one and I do mean little in every way possible sweetheart.  |
Russ702 | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 06:40 pm  Ouch...NOT! Anyone with a moderate IQ level can reference my remarks, and see that they were truthful statements. Especially the one regarding someone judging an outward appearance right after they said they don't do that. Sounds like two mouths talking to me. Funny how the truth, and calling someone on their inconstencies can really set some people off. |
Newvoice | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 06:53 pm  Oh, dear lord. Can't we move this to Outside the House, puh-leeze? :P |
Moderator | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 07:02 pm  Moving this to OUTSIDE THE HOUSE (k) |
Jombie | Monday, September 18, 2000 - 08:59 pm  Russ: And people with higher IQ levels realize that discretion is the better part of valor... It's not what you say that makes you wrong, it's where and when and how you say it...there's a proper forum for every word that needs to be said... In the future, on all threads, we will appreciate you keeping your flaming to yourself... |
