embraces her own virginity with enthusiasm.

(wince) Surely there was a better way he could have phrased that.

My point exactly. Talk is cheap.

So far, you haven't shown us a point besides possibly the one atop a pin head.

"Talk is cheap," you say. So, whaddaya want? A gyno exam to prove she's telling the truth? Or would you just rather her shut up while the day is ruled by people who see no shame in premarital sex?

I don't want anything. I wish the girl well, but my radar tells me she has made herself a target. I don't understand why you are directing such bile in my direction. I have a bad feeling is all I am saying. If you take offense at that, then do me a favor and take a hike too.

If you have a "bad feeling," take some Pepto-Bismol. Your "radar" is no reason to presume before any evidence is available that she's all talk.

What beautiful women! Thanks, Sabertooth. It's nice to know that good, decent, moral women still abound in America's beauty pageants. Hooray for them!!!

Were you born a moron, or do you just work at it real hard?

Tuco is only saying that because he wants to get the thread off-topic. The article's point is how conservative this young woman is. Tuco wants to get everyone ignorring that topic and ranting about affirmative action (which I only agree about in rare instances). Do not take the bait.

NOT True!

I challenge you to find ONE post of mine that support Affirmative Action.

If you check my profile it states: I am the most conservative member in the Free Republic.

Oooh, whatta witty rejoinder.

You want to know why I'm on your case? Because at last, a young woman is willing to stand up in a high-profile arena to proclaim "I am a conservative and I am saving myself for marriage" fully aware of the brickbats that will be thrown her way, and here you are saying she's probably a hypocrite based on absolutely nothing -- just like a leftist.

I only know about this woman what I am now reading, but I read with the hope that she is everything she claims to be. You, on the other hand, treat her as if she is automatically a liar simply because she makes the claims. When I asked what you want from her to prove herself to you, you say, "I don't want anything."

I don't think fair readers have any question who the "moron" is.

Big deal. So did Britney Spears.

If you are in love with this woman perhaps you should ask her father for her hand in marriage.

Oh, brother. So because Britney Spears was full of it, all other Christian women are too? What is wrong with you?

I like to get weenies like you in a tizzee over trivial observations.

In lieu of spending your time discussing something you really care about, right? Uh huh. Nice try, now that you have shown you aren't capable of a literate or logical response.

Miss America is a champion of virginity, just like Briney Spears. Isn't that special?

That doesn't answer what I asked you. I said, "Do you [call yourself a conservative]?"

There are no topless photos floating around of the new Miss America, Erika Harold, because she'd never put herself in that position

She's never taken her top off? How does she bath?

... she is a leading advocate of abstinence and embraces her own virginity with enthusiasm.

Apparently she is not anti-masturbation.

For reasons owing to internal pageant politics, Harold signed onto Illinois's violence-prevention platform for the national contest.

In other words, she wanted desperately to win -- even if if that meant fewer teenage virgins.

Most people will describe me as a liberal.

However I define myself as a conservative, somewhere to the right of Barry Goldwater, slightly to the left of Attila the Hun.

My wife and I have known Erica since she was 4 years old. She had an amazing personality back then...we all thought she would do something "great" someday.

Ain't it cool when someone you've known someone that long and seemingly knew all along they were destined for greatness?

Now if we could only send her to Washington D.C. to teach a few so-called Republican Conservative's a few lessons.

Tuco, I didn't fall off the turnip truck yesterday. Of course you don't have a post here supporting affirmative action. Why would you?

Your modus operandi is to inject a diversionary topic on pro-conservative or pro-Bush threads. You seize on a factoid and magnify it, getting people to argue about something. You have done this for almost two years.

In fact, why should one believe you about anything, since you don't keep your word?

My prediction: you will look at this post and say that I don't think Bush is a conservative.

You are not to be taken seriously, you are not a conservative, and you simply want to disrupt the forum. I have no time for your shenanigans, and I trust others will ignore you as well.
