From the AP -
Woolard handled the night's toughest question, about Arizona's new immigration law. Woolard said she supports the law, which requires police enforcing another law to verify a person's immigration status if there's "reasonable suspicion" that the person is in the country illegally.
She said she's against illegal immigration but is also against racial profiling.
"I'm a huge believer in states' rights. I think that's what's so wonderful about America," Woolard said. "So I think it's perfectly fine for Arizona to create that law."
"The Office" actor Oscar Nunez was booed as he asked the question and asked the audience to wait until he finished the question before they reacted. The panel of judges came up with the questions themselves.

You know it had an effect.
according to the article, the winner, from Michigan:
“Fakih, a Lebanese immigrant, told pageant organizers her family celebrates both Muslim and Christian faiths”
take that for what it’s worth
Did her answer to this question cost her the Miss USA title? Just throwing the question out there....
Ummmm... when you have a Muslim winning in a Miss USA sponsored by a Jew-hating Muslim .... I think you know what happened there ... LOL ...
Yep, just like Ms. California a couple years ago.
Taqiyya for what it is worth.
Fakih's family is itself a blend of cultures and religions, including both Christians and Muslims. Though Muslim, Fakih's parents celebrate Christmas and have a painting of Jesus in their home.
If you are born into a Muslim family, you are a Muslim ... that's the way it works.
Seriously, the only thing that was great about her was her gown. Miss USA is now only about sexy.
looks like it...didn’t know the term, but you’re absolutely right it seems...
They have a painting of Jesus. Well, He - or rather a fictionalized version of Him - is a prophet in the Koran. So that’s meaningless. Utterly meaningless.
“Though Muslim, Fakih’s parents celebrate Christmas and have a painting of Jesus in their home.”
I wonder what the painting looks like...I hope it doesn’t have dart holes in it :(
Exactlly! And more FReepers should be a bit smarter about it, too ...
The ultimate in confusion. Obviously they are clueless, most probably about both of those religions.

Well, they wouldn't do that, because in Islam, Jesus is one of the "prophets" -- but Mohammed is the greatest and the last one, on a higher status than Jesus.
Also, in Islam, Jesus did not die on the cross and they consider that to be a lie, perpetrated by Christians. In addition, they take great offense to Christians saying that Jesus is the Son of God, since "Allah" has no son. Thus Jesus is only one of many prophets.
In addition, Jesus does come back, and when He gets here, he helps the Muslims kill all the Jews in the world, too ...
That kind of "Jesus" -- they don't throw darts at ... :-)
She’s liable to be murdered and not by tea partiers.
