Sandra Lee: I have feelings, too
New York Post, by Emily Smith

Original Article

Posted By:JoniTx, 12/13/2012 3:43:52 PM

New York’s first girlfriend, Sandra Lee, stormed out of BG restaurant at Bergdorf Goodman after thinking she heard offensive comments about her “semi-homemade” empire. The Post’s Kirsten Fleming reports that Calvin Klein’s ex Nick Gruber was dining with new boyfriend John Luciano and several friends near the entrance to the cafe Tuesday night when Lee, the longtime girlfriend of Gov. Cuomo, came in to sit near the back of the restaurant with an unidentified male friend. Gruber and others at his table didn’t recognize Lee, whose “Semi-Homemade Cooking” empire spawned a Food Network show, magazine and

Oh my, the "first-girlfriend" of Gov. Coumo---on TV--realty cooking show--that is bad for his political life; divorced Kerry Kennedy and she just lucked out of a DUI even when hitting a truck in the rear after taking ambien.....just cannot support him with his ex-wife and girlfriend always in the news and on TV. Just chasing those dollars with writing all of those cookbooks. Wish they would just go back to Wasilla----oops, New York and get out of the limelight.

Since all the players are Dems everything is just fine, but let a Republican´s name get in the news--------different story!

I´ve seen the show a few times in the past and it´s not really all that bad (and she is a little cutie to be honest). It´s basically about taking stuff you bought from the store and making a few simple changes to make it look (and hopefully taste) better. It´s for people who don´t have the time or desire to cook and lets them do something a little nicer than prepackaged meals.
I do think she needs to grow a thicker skin.
And I do think those twinks were intentionally trying to insult her. It wasn´t acoustics that let her hear them, it was their intentionally LOUD voices.

This woman has created enough hideous table scapes (what she calls the monstrosities that fill a table to match the awful food she cooks) to launch a cruise ship. Now living with Cuomo, her back goes up easily...hey, he´s the NY governor and she´s his arm candy. His daughters apparently also live with them. If this new doyenne wants to be above reproach she ought to think before she acts. The restaurant thing is as phony as she is and her power play is transparent. I don´t think she could cook her way out of a paper bag but I gave her credit for her hard work. That just went bye-bye as she shifted into the real second hand mama and revealer herself as just another whiny and pukey demonRAT.

Dilettante girlfriend of dilettante governor, who looks as though he was dropped on his face...

As I recall his father had a certain presence. This guy has zero. When he showed up on Staten Island, he looked and sounded like a member of the cleanup crew. Well, maybe a supervisor.

“She takes an angel food cake, slices it in half, opens a can of frosting, frosts the cake, calls it semi-homemade, and makes a lot of money.” She is just mad because he left out the main ingredient. COOL WHIP.

This white blonde once made "Kwanzaa Cake" on her show which could have been renamed "Dog´s Dinner." It consisted of a store-bought angel food cake covered with chocolate icing, canned apple pie filling dumped in the hollow center of the cake, with three regular candles, one red, one black and one green, stuck in the cake. Lastly, and to dress it up I suppose, she then dumped acorn meat over the icing. When I first saw it I thought it was a joke. But no. She was getting down with the brothas and sistahs Betty Crocker-style.

Watched her show....once. She always pushes the cocktails and she makes her lasagna with tomato soup....blech

It has been written she has not always lived in a fancy house complete with cooks and bottle washers, butlers. She had family obligations, no money, and many mouths to feed. For this reason, she is cut a little slack from the Texas viewers nick of the woods.
Sandra has done well for herself, pulled out of misfortune, but still on the prowl for easy cooking Personally, McDonalds would be a choice before considering Sandra Lee´s dinner parties.

Some pretty grouchy snarkers out today. She came from nothing, raised her siblings and did the American dream thing. If you don´t like her stuff, don´t make it and don´t watch.

Sheesh.

I give her credit for pulling herself up by the bootstraps, as it were, but somehow she comes across as less Shania Twain (who also raised her siblings, while giving up a shot at stardom) than Scarlett O´Hara (who looked after her family but became a ruthless golddigger in the process). I cannot STAND to watch her. I´d rather watch that hideously awful Nadia chick on the Cooking Channel than her. And that´s saying something. This little episode validates what I think of her.

If you get a chance, read her biography sometime. Yeah, she cooks with Bisquick but the reason is she learned to cook for her siblings using the limited supplies available to her. Instead of wallowing in self pity, she tried to make meals interesting and festive. There are MILLIONS of Americans struggling right now that could learn a lot from her and her spirit. Count me as one of her fans.

#33 -- While I admire her tenacity and the fact that she came from nothing...she didn´t work her way into "striking it rich." As I understand it, her first husband was a multi-millionaire, and he helped her catapult her career. Every once in a while she does a recipe I really like...for instance, one that I actually added to my recipe box is her recipe for tangerine teriyaki baby back ribs...they´re actually very good and very easy.

With all that said, she came from nothing but alas, she is a stinkin´, dyed-in-the-wool, liberal...and now can be classified as limousine liberal to boot!

Are you kidding me?! Did you seriously just ask that? Your make-believe Republican Governor would have never been elected b/c the press would have crucified him for the exact same life-style choice shown by Gov. Cuomo. What media have you been watching?

When Chelsea Clinton wanted to make a low-key visit to the hurricane-stricken Rockaways last fall, she arranged to take a trip with her close friend Huma Abedin, a longtime aide to Hillary Rodham Clinton. So some members of the Clinton camp were surprised and unsettled to learn that Ms. Abedin also brought along her husband, Anthony D. Weiner, the former congressman who had rarely been seen in public since resigning his seat the previous year. The next day, Mr. Weiner reactivated his Twitter account to post a video about the Rockaways. Photographs soon surfaced in New York news outlets

WASHINGTON — At times on Thursday, it seemed President Obama was taking part in a debate rather than giving a speech. Deep into an address at the National Defense University, where Mr. Obama sought to redefine America’s approach to fighting terrorism, a heckler repeatedly interrupted from the back of the room, demanding an end to drone strikes and the closing of the Guantánamo Bay detention center in Cuba. The heckler — though she objected strenuously to being described that way — was Medea Benjamin, a co-founder of Code Pink, a group opposed to United States military actions.

WASHINGTON — Schoolchildren from New Jersey shore communities battered by Superstorm Sandy will join Michelle Obama for a garden harvest next week. The White House says the first lady will also be joined Tuesday by students who helped plant the crops last month. The New Jersey students are from Union Beach Memorial School in Union Beach and Long Beach Island Grade School in Ship Bottom. Both schools were damaged in last October’s storm. Both also teach their students about healthy eating, which is one of the first lady’s causes. The students who helped plant lettuce, broccoli and various other crops

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy.

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”
