They told us if Barack Obama were elected, the nation would come together. Souls would be fixed. Spirits would be healed. Public discourse would be elevated. Welcome to civility and tolerance in the Age of Obama:
-- Celebrity leech/trash blogger Perez Hilton took to the Internet and TV airwaves to humiliate a beauty pageant contestant who gave what he considered an offensive answer about gay marriage. Hilton, inexplicably serving as a judge for the Miss USA contest, asked Miss California, Carrie Prejean, whether she supported the legalization of gay marriage. Prejean respectfully answered: I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but thats how I was raised. President Obama, by the way, defines marriage the same way Prejean does.
No matter. Hilton immediately lambasted Prejean as a dumb b*tch in a viral YouTube video he taped after the pageant Sunday night. He apologized the next morning for the attack, then retracted his apology, then escalated his divisive rhetoric. On Tuesday afternoon, Hilton told an MSNBC female anchor that he was thinking of an even more vulgar epithetthe c-wordas he listened to Prejeans answer. The female anchor said nothing. Basking in his new role as thought and speech enforcer, Hilton told CNNs Larry King that beauty pageant contestants must bow to the tolerance mob: Yes. I do expect Miss USA to be politically correct.

On the other hand, Perez Hilton shouldnt have been a judge. What, in particular, qualified him for it? Plus, he cannot apparently engage in civil discourse. Simon Cowell hes not.
Poorly communicated? Are you really that dense or just pretending to be? She answered what she believes, that marriage is between a man and a woman and stated that clearly and concisely. What you are really saying is you think she should have caved on her principles and let these queer ba****** control her thinking, which is what PC really is, thought control. Just how do you think she should have answered the question so that she "clearly articulated her opinions".
Is there some other way of saying," I think marriage is between a man and a woman"?
Pony, hell -
I’m still waiting for my flying unicorn - and they better provide the saddle, too. And while they’re at it, someone to take care of it and feed it.
Pagent “Director” Keith Lewis is a Gay-Wad then, one must PRESUME.
Not quite set up. I watched it. Every contestant was drawing blindly a name of the judge who will ask a question. I am sure though that the questions were vetted to push for the PC answers. I was surprised that Miss California retained enough integrity to give an independent answer instead of the PC.
Let’s see Perez stand in front of me and call her a b**ch. I’d do what every normal-thinking, red-blooded American male should do - knock the snot out of the brainless homo.
I disagree with your tagline. Mugabe is anti-homosexual.
My point is that she didn’t answer the question confidently. She stumbled a bit. It has nothing to do with her stand on the issue. She’s supposed to be judged on how well she communicates, and she didn’t come across as some eloquent defender of traditional marriage. In fact, she seemed fairly apologetic for something that doesn’t need an apology. It’s a real shame politics have tainted even the Miss USA pageant.
BTW, read some of my other posts and you’ll understand I agree with her 100%.
They've put that on hold. No messianic Paradise of peace, milk, and honey yet from the One.
But shouldn't straight guys be deciding who wins Miss USA???!!!
“Pagent Director Keith Lewis is a Gay-Wad then, one must PRESUME.”
No need to presume. He is openly gay as reported here:

From the link,
“Let’s not forget that the person asking the question is an openly gay man, at least 2 people on the judges panel are openly gay. Another judge has a sister in a gay marriage. Her very own state pageant director, KEITH LEWIS is an openly gay man “
