Bye, Bye Ms. American Pie
MOTUS A.D. ^ | 6*7*18 | MOTUS

Thanks, advocates of the self esteem movement (aka Let’s Make America Mediocre Again).

Thanks #MeToo, for solidifying the belief that all women great and small are the same: victims.

Thanks Social Justice Warriors, for imposing your standards of “justice” on the world.

ON JUNE 5th Miss America announced that it would ditch the bikinis and become a “competition”, rather than a pageant. “We will no longer judge our candidates on their outward physical appearance,” announced Gretchen Carlson (pictured), the chairwoman of Miss America’s board of directors, and a former Miss America (1989). “That’s huge.” – The Economist

And that is where the intersectionality of participation trophies and pussy hats gets you:

Bye, bye Miss American Pie
Drove my Chevy to the levee but the levee was dry
And them good ole boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Singin' this'll be the day that I die
This'll be the day that I die

This is just the first step towards transvestites in the pageant.

Gretchen Carlson the ingrate who blamed Fox News for all her woes. Now going to destroy another American tradition.

I don t understand #me too? I know # is a pound sign. Oh NOW I get it.

Judging a beauty pagent on the basis of something other than beauty fits right in with the NYC proposal to admit students into prestigious techical high schools based something other than grades.

This contest will include a wider assortment of people who identify as a Miss. or Ms.in America. I fear that if Miss USA doesn’t do the same, we will eventually be subjected to someone’s junk bouncing around in a bikini bottom on the runway someday...

It is the beginning of the end for the pageant—and there are worse things than that.

“Liberals kill and nothing more.”

True. By nature they are not happy people. Look at the faces of Sean Penn, Michael Moore, Ed Asner as classic examples of die hard libs that never smile. There was nothing positive at all about Hitlery’s campaign, she seldom smiled except when blasting the opposition.

I worked for a female lib once, she never smiled, hated jokes and never made any effort to look feminine - sloppy clothes, messed up hair, no makeup.

They are unhappy people out to destroy and this Miss America thing is just an example.

How will the next Miss America compete with real beauties in the Miss World pageant? Some butt ugly leftie competing with her leftwing ideology as a “talent” against some Asian hottie that has a true talent? What will this nasty PC thing do when she loses? Go on a perpetual rant like Hitlery?

Wait until Carlson finds out about wet tee-shirt contests.

I heard it best on the radio yesterday: The Miss America show (no longer a pageant) is now just another talent show. Bring on the dancing dog acts.

If i wasn’t so old I would sue them for not letting men compete. Or maybe I should sue b/c not allowing me to compete would be age discrimination.

Everyone likes bikinis and evening dresses except Gretchen Carlson. Best to fire her.

I think if the pageant wanted to tone down the pageant they should have opted for swimsuits and left out the bikinis.

If you do not praise fitness and beauty, you are sinking to America’s Biggest Loser status.

Captain. You could reduce it by a factor of 10 and it would be still too LARGE.

Yeah, truly sorry about that. Especially concerning the subject matter.
