My apologies for the severe editing of this article....this was done in order to remain in compliance with Free Republic rules pertaining to the posting of articles from the Seattle P.I. Please click on the article link to see the full story.

Readers are hereby warned that going to the original article page may be upsetting, as it is the P.I.'s blog site where comments are allowed.  As is to be expected for comments submitted by readers of Washington's most hard-left major 'news' paper, there is a continual stream of shrill, occasionally militant-feminist blather that will most likely strike normal, rational people as being utterly insane.  Welcome to (western) Washington State.

GREAT POINT! The P.I. is on par with the LA Times, and the NY Times as being one of the most liberal newspapers in the Nation. Oh, and thanks for posting the pictures, there is now no need to click the PI link.
A conservative from Seattle? Now there is a rare thing indeed. Bellevue, Issaquah, Enumclaw, Maple Valley, you bet, but Seattle? She is among the tiny 18% of conservative Seattleites.

Hate to be the turd in the punchbowl here, but maybe hard times have dried up the sources of money for “beauty” contests disguised as scholarship events. Maybe enough people have seen pictures of Jon Benet Ramsey to realize what b!tches these competitions turn young women into.
