Rachael Ray Serving Up Secret Political Agenda?!

Posted Oct 30th 2008 12:00PM by TMZ Staff

It looked like an innocent election night cooking guide in the newest Rachael Ray cooking magazine ... but in between the delicious "Bipartisan Salad" and the "Campaign Trail Mix" lies a devious, grassy knoll-like plot that could decide the presidency.

The proof is in the pages of the November edition of Everyday w/ Rachael Ray magazine -- in a political party food photo spread that was supposed to be impartial -- but it's not -- and we can prove it!!!

1) The first page of the spread contains two buttons -- the text on the Obama pin is perfectly readable, on the McCain button, John's name is cut off!

2) There are two cups bearing political stickers on the second page of the spread -- the Obama sticker is clearly readable, complete with a link to his website; the McCain cup is turned, so only the letters "McCa" are legible PLUS his website is blurred out of focus.

3) There are two more buttons on page three of the spread! They are both partially cut out of frame ...BUT the Obama pin is clearly identifiable; the way the light hits the McCain button, it's impossible to read.

Coincidence?!!?!?!?!?!!? WE THINK NOT!!!

46. Rachel Ray is a loser. She has a cooking show and she is not a cook. She has a talk show and can't interview. All she is, is an Oprah wannabe with no talent and a face like the Jokers sister. A vote for Obama is a vote for higher taxes, stricter gun control laws for law abiding citizens and a socialist government. If he wins America we are in trouble

47. Rachel Ray is a repulsive loud mouth and nothing but a servant in Oprah's Evil Empire. Of course, she has to serve the Messiah, Obama. GO MCCAIN/PALIN!

49. SO WHAT??!!! Last time I checked, it was a free country. Everyone has a right to share their political leanings any way they choose. Get over it, TMZ.

52. let me get this straight: the Obama button is clearly identifiable even though it's cut off, but the McCain button is NOT identifiable BECAUSE it's cut off? Talk about biased...

53. Someone at TMZ should speak to the event coordinator at Barnes and Noble NYC - apparently Ms. Ray is on probation for showing up at the last 2 book signings sloshed.

happy trails!

54. i myself happen to a white woman married to a black man with three beautiful bi-racial children. i dont want someone saying my children are black or white. i keep telling my husband everyone keeps conveniently forgetting that his mother is WHITE!!! my husband has NEVER given any attention to a presidential raec (and he is 37 but just not interested in politics) until now and the only reason, in my humble opion--and i have known him 15 years now--he is all on obamas jock ONLY because he is "black". so flip the coin, black people whine whites wont vote for him just because he is black, but hell, blacks are voting for him just because he IS black. when i ask my husband why he is voting for him he says "he makes good decisions"--ha, laugh my ass off. i tell him its just like him wanting black quarterbacks and head coaches to win--its just because they are black, not because he likes the team, per se. i cant wait for this freaking thing to be over and i hope against hope mccain/palin win, not because i think they are any better, just not as bad.

It sounds like you have a few issues in your marriage and with race that you should seek help for. Maybe after "knowing him 15 years now--You were initially on his JOCK because he was "black"(is it true what they say??) without knowing his ideals and beliefs. He was good enough to get you pregnant three times. Sad.

What does being raised white mean? No Ebonics at the dinner table?
Here is a news flash for you:
'race' is a man-made creation; a sociological phenomenon as opposed to a biological one.
Create and live in a parallel culture all you want, but realize there is only one race.
