How's your reading comprehension? I never said she wasn't competent.
I said essentially that I didn't like her manner of speaking. Quit
putting words and meanings in my posts that aren't there.

Again, reading comprehension must not be your strong suit. You said
she was a goddess because of her callipygian qualities. That is
certainly allowable. To say that this is why anyone else should
admire her cooking show is just ridiculous AND sexist. Remember? We
started out talking about her cooking shows and her TV persona.
Give it up - you're in too deep to dig yourself out.
