because darling Injest, Ms Prejean is a perfect and convenient target for the PC left to attack, and conceivably fundraise around.
she is :
1) an attractive woman, therefore she is not disabled by homeliness - how dare she!
2) a white woman, therefore not enabled by a minority status - You chose your parents unwisely didn't ya Prejean?
3) bold about expressing a "conservative" POV, therefore she can be attacked by the left for an opinion that is identical to THE ONE, who can not be attacked by the left.
4) a hetero therefore she can not have an opinion about same sex marriage anyway.
if nothing else, this whole increasingly tiresome episode does ONCE again illustrate the duplicity and double standards of the left and the media in the US. so for some it is a "teachable moment" - to use a Hillary phrase. ;)

so that makes it right? does this poster feel relief? does Ms Prejean being insulted somehow erase the memory of the insults HE faced? why does Ms Prejean have to pay for the people that insulted him?

She doesn't. But any gay man who is out has suffered insults many times worse than what has happened to her. Being called a bitch by a gossip columnist is tame in comparison. Please forgive us if we're not impressed.
It's interersting that the gays are always wrong, and everybody else is always right.

who said that? Does the fact that Mr. "Perez" is wrong in THIS instance, somehow mean all gay people everywhere are wrong? Does he stand in for all gay people? are gay people NEVER wrong?

This woman is working to keep your son from being able to get married and you are defending her about a silly name calling as though she'd been attacked and mugged.
I don't understand.

I know she had no power....there was nothing she could do. I dont' care if someone doesn't LIKE my son. I just dont' want them to have the POWER to hurt him. I have to be fair. I dont' think she did anything wrong, I would rather KNOW the truth about what people think rather than have them lie...
Perez gave her the power, he made her name a household thing...he gave her a platform to leap off of. Now she is the darling of the anti gay marriage...and people are rallying to her. She needs to be allowed to fade off the public stage, instead the gay community is ginning up SUPPORT for her...everything that is brought out to 'harm' her is going to backfire.
