Yes, it is. I was so upset reading this after looking at the lovely pictures of Kate and Will.
Most women in white dresses look like they’ve just swallowed a bus. The author is most likely projecting.../s;)
Exactly right — on all counts.
Whoa
What a contrived and pathetic piece.
I really hope for the writer’s sake she was tasked to write an Anti Will and Kate piece.
I hope she doesn’t really think that way.
"True," perhaps. "First," most definitely not. She is the first to make him put a ring on her finger as payment for giving it up, so that might say something about the depth of his feelings for her...
Interesting comment about it being “too white.” I wonder how many “black” wedding she has been invited to attend. As far as I know, guest lists at weddings are entirely up to the two people involved. Even presidents sometimes do not get invited.
White people are "DISTURBINGLY WHITE."
Dr. Seuss wrote about this a long time ago in his story, The Sneetches.
A long time ago it was "frightfully bad" to be caught with darker skin in some places. Now we are the reverse. You'd better have dark skin or you are a loser.
I think she's Jewish, but what her ancestry, vis-a-vis ethnic nationality is, I don not know.
She blows hot and cold. Sometimes her articles are quite good, other times they are patently ridiculous or even snarky/obscenely revolting. Not long ago there was a vast hue and cry over a very nasty anti-cat article she wrote, after some moron had cruelly tortured and killed his girlfriends cat.
At least one of the royals was involved in the Lockerbie bomber deal. Reason enough to go after the royals, Ms. Peyser. Did I miss your column on that...?
Don’t see too many white faces at one of Louie Far A Cans speeches, I wonder why....this race crap is getting old but I think its also losing its power for the democrats..
I guess if he had a bad reputation she would have something to hang her hat on, but all she can point to is badly balding heir to the throne
Who cares what this stupid person says. The wedding was beautiful as was the bride. As for being white; so what. Prince William had plenty of black guests and one his friends and partners from Africa are doing a joint effort to help the kids over there. His friend also lost his mother when young.
It shows how cheap these real racists are.
I think you summed it up pretty nicely.
The pictures said it all. No “common-tary” needed.
In Royal European weddings, during the Medieval time period, royal and not so royal ( if they could afford special clothes, which most couldn't ) wore blue, as did their attendants,in honor of the Virgin Mary.
“being snarky about the incongruity of a white wedding....”
I’ve been told that in these modern times, white just means that it’s the bride’s first WEDDING.
See, we can rationalize anything!
Andrea is a real beauty isn't she?
Just now, FOX ran a "highlight" piece - gotta admit it was funny when that one niece got out of the car and Shep emoted with "Oh, Good grief!".
