Miss America is sexist because it excludes people of intellect and character like me.

[ArrogantBustard]

I give 10:1 odds that Richard Abowitz is a veteran of many years in the Rump Ranger Battalion.

The winner this year happened to be kind of hot. But usually the finalists are very average. I see hotter chicks at the mall. Or in porn.

[Always Right]

A girl from Indiana finally won! The only people who care that the pagent is sexy, are ugly women.

[wolfcreek]

Not the most attractive Miss America, either.

Free market

He has no shot and it drives him wild.

"Besides, leading scholarship drives is not why Vegas hosts events."

Vegas hosts events for one purpose only; to make money. When hosting the Miss America Pageant STOPS making money, Vegas won't host it anymore.

I suppose Mr. Abowitz could ask the girls why they compete in such a contest, but that might tax him beyond his capacity, anot to mention provide him with valuable insight into what others think.
Oh wait! Mr. Abowitz writes like a liberal all thinking people feel like he does), so he doesn't care what others think, but he has to make sure you know how he feels.

"Why does Miss America still exist?"

It's still a somewhat free country, though it won't be for long if the LA Times has anything to say about it.

[Falconspeed]

LA Times is worthless except for its Sports section. Miss America rocks!

[Longdriver]

They'll need to change the lyrics:


There she is, Miss America
There she is, your ideal
The dreams of a million girls
Who are more than pretty
May come true in Atlantic City
Oh she may turn out to be
The queen of femininity
There she is, Miss America
There she is, your ideal
With so many beauties
She'll take the town by storm
With her all-American face and form
And there she is
Walking on air she is
Fairest of the fair she is
Miss America

Why Does Miss America Still Exist

So I can see the 2008 winner, Kirsten Haglund, online:

Oh, and ....

Not Guilty!

[Republic of Texas]

Because she’s in her 20’s and in good health?

[popdonnelly]

Nobody cares if this guy thinks Miss America should exist or not. He’s not that important.

[Thumper1960]

Zakeet.....................

You're sick person.

< bllaaarrrffff >

[Military family member]

More importantly, how did Mario Lopez becomethe host?

[fleagle]

Why does Miss America still exist?

Here's one reason.

[Interesting Times]

Why does the LA Times still exist?

[Right Wing Assault]

Why does Miss America still exist?

She thinks, therefore, she is.

[Smokin' Joe]

Vegas aspires not only to be hipper than Atlantic City, but also wants to be a city with a relevance to the 21st century.

The home of Elvis impersonation? Ri-ight..
