There is no doubt in anyone's mind that leftists are complete and total hypocrites. They always have been, and they always will be.
Just for a moment, let's turn around the Miss America/Perez Hilton scandal. Let's suppose that a Christian became a judge (it could happen, there are a few popular ones in Hollyweird.) Let's also suppose that a "gay marriage" question is asked of one of the contestants. The contestant, who is leading, gives the standard leftwing drivel ("everyone should love everyone and let everyone do whatever they want to do, and make everything legal, except being mean to leftists".) The answer is as lucid and poised and any other contestant, just leftwing drivel.
The Christian judge proceeds to give the candidate a very low score (maybe even a zero.) The Christian also gives an interview to the news media (700 Club?) indicating that she believes that "Miss America is supposed to represent traditional American values and this candidate did not represent those. The judge could not, in good conscience, give her a good score for that non-traditional answer. The judge also indicates that that score kept the contestant from winning.
The left wing would obviously go ape-sh!t demanding the contestant be given the crown, the judge be censured, sued, etc.
How do FReepers respond to this judge? With the same disdain we had for Perez Hilton? Do we find a way to justify the judge's actions?
I think the contestants are supposed to be judged on how they present and express themselves, not on the content of their answers. The Christian judge should be objective and evaluate what he or she is supposed to evaluate. I’m pretty sure the Christian judge wouldn’t call the contestant names or go on TV to trash her when the contest was over.
And?
(What do you expect from just another depraved @ocksucker?)
Reducing yourself to their level is not exactly presenting a flattering image.
Most posts about this have been from mainstream media sources.
Are you trying to pick a fight?
What is you opinion?
Some freepers are RINOs.. which are stealth democrats..
ALL democrats are hypocrites..
If it was a Christian contest then the judge would be able to ask that question. Is Miss USA a homo contest?
She performed excellent, and stood by her beliefs.
The show is a joke...and so is perez. It’s obvious to me their targeted audience is not us anyway. Not worth our time.
Is there a standard by which the judges are judged?
Apparently not.
Only vanity posters.
We should applaud the judge for standing for high moral values.
With perez as judge, it is. Maybe Christians will stop participating...
You are a FReeper, are you a hypocrite?
Kinda my point, in a society without standards it’s mob rule. That is how Athens lost (in part).
Too many vanities.
Hmmmmmmmmm is this a trick question? I agree with Renee, what’s this have to do with Freepers? With all that’s going on now with OBAMAMANIA we have much to do, don’t have to worry about fantasy...reality is much too scary. We need to focus on what’s before us and the good of this country.
We’re not hypocrits, according to DHS, we’re terrorists!
The Christian judge would be wrong. He/She was there to judge a competition, not promote some agenda.
Do you really think Perez Hilton had a chance of winning Miss USA?
