Via Busted Coverage:

Poor Suzy Favor Hamilton. The hits just keep coming to the former Vegas prostitute and U.S. Olympian who had a side career serving as a spokesperson for a variety of companies and special interest groups.
Now comes word from the Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association, via its newsletter “Tater Talk,” that she is losing her job.
The growers write (from Dec. 21 newsletter):
We have been in contact with Suzy Favor Hamilton today and she has indicated to us that the story we are hearing in the news is true. Earlier today, the WPVGA Board of Directors has approved the revocation of our contract with Favor Hamilton, under the termination clause related to moral turpitude, situations that would reflect unfavorably on the WPVGA.
She has agreed to the revocation of the contract.
We are deeply sorry to learn of this turn of events and sincerely wish her well in finding stability in her future. We ask that you are respectful of her struggles in life.
This is a major blow to Favor Hamilton, born in Stevens Point, Wisconsin and educated at the University of Wisconsin. It’s unclear what the potato and vegetable growers paid Favor Hamilton, but at this point it’s more about perception for the vegetable community.
The growers once boasted on their website (cached page):
Who better to inspire Wisconsinites to eat fresh vegetables than Suzy Favor Hamilton?
…
Duane Maatz, Executive Director for the Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association (WPVGA) notes, “Suzy is a perfect fit to deliver the message that potatoes are nutritious and fit into an active, healthy lifestyle. She’s accomplished a lot in her lifetime and overcome hurdles as well. She understands the importance of eating right and she knows how to motivate people. And she’s just as busy as the rest of us — she understands how difficult it can be to find the time to prepare a healthy meal.
The association is busy scrubbing its site of any mention of Suzy. Of course you don’t want your potatoes and vegetables associated with a prostitute. That’ll totally kill sales.

What really pisses me off about Suzy, is that she allowed herself to be identified and persecuted publically for her professional choice. When dealing with the public, you never admit to something you know that society cannot understand. She should have denied it and played it off. But instead, she admitted it and how she gets to be judged by all the religious do-gooders of society who think they have the right to punish her. It makes me sick. The pathetic moron who revealed what Suzy was doing should be taken out and horse whipped. People, please do NOT share your secrets with anyone. You cannot trust anyone to respect your privacy and you have to figure that the vast majority of people will jump at the chance to tell others what they know about you.
Woman outnumber men in the workforce, so maybe you have that backwards. Thanks for playing though.
America used to love the underdog...now it kicks it to the curb...Pathetic!...
my problem is called privacy - and I do not see where she put it on the street...........without this dirt thrown in everyone's face - I would have never known
as I now KNOW - - - - you have decided it is important - - - WHO ARE YOU LOW-LIFE ???
As the bible says, "He (or she) who is without sin-cast the first stone". Has no one ever made a mistske or an error in judgement?
This message is not meant to side with anyone taking issue here but, as Joe Friday would say, "what are the facts, mam/guy; only the facts?
In St. Matthew 21 Jesus is confronted by the chief priests and elders of the people but He puts them on the spot in versus 31 & 32:...."Verily, verily I say unto you, that the publican and the harlots go into the kingdom of God before you. (32): For John (The Babtist) came unto you in the way of righteousness and you believed him not; but the publicans and harlots believed him: and you, when you had seen it, repented not afterwards that you might believe him." Then Jesus presents them with a parable regards how harsh their kind had treated God's servants in the past, by beating them; stoning them and killing them. Inhuman, ungodly, unloving acts Jesus and they knew by experience the harlots and publicans had never committed. By comparison Jesus was saying that the harlots and the publicans showed/demonstrated far more love and mercy than the self righteous priests and elders. A little later Jesus would emphasize this position, by stating that in His kingdom those who thought that they were first in God's eyes although lacking love would be seen as last and that those who thought they were first and dispised others outside their group as lower class sinners being last in their opinionated eyes would be seen as 1ast in His kingdom, by those such as the publicans and harlots who had the greater powers of love in their lives. The kingdom of God is the kingdom where love dwells and rules human behavior and all other approaches are seen as mean, ugly and loveless. In which world do we want to live today?
