Gay Marriage Sinks Miss California's shot at Crown

[Kelda]

stereotyping much?

with regard to gays being part of the beauty pagent business?

If you look back at the news articles you'll see thet many people in the pagentry business have mentioned this in the discussions about this case. The Californian Miss USA Board people mention it specifically in her case that she had many openly gay represntatives helping her in a) getting the californian crown and B) shooting for the Miss USA crown.

if you have achieved that perfection then I congratulate you. I know I haven't....I am notorious for wanting to hit back when I feel attacked.

I'm not a believer in perfection.  As you said, it's a journey.  It's a choice made every single time we make a response.

Which just goes to show that Carrie Prejean is another one of those people willing to take advantage of gays for their own profit but still deny us full civil rights in this country. 

The clueless little bitch. ...

Kind of like...."Shut-up and make me look pretty!" 

(But above all, shut-up)

Or from another angle:

Shut-up and look straight!

Your constant "whining & screeching" is "hurting the cause" for "respectable" gays.

you can say that twice and mean it!

Aren't you the one with the mirror collection?

No HK is the one with a "successful career", I am the one who has nice mirrors.

and dont forget...

5) because she showed a very un PC attitude which people have called her on.  

yes, and to her credit, she definitely does not subscribe to the robot thinking of the political correctness agenda. however, she may subscribe to other robotic agendas - so its a wash as far as I'm concerned.

Miss California gay-marriage debate coming to a head

The saga over Miss California and the whole gay-marriage debate may come to a head Monday.

The Miss California USA Pageant has scheduled a news conference on Monday in Beverly Hills to discuss the controversy surrounding title-holder Carrie Prejean.

Prejean made national headlines last month when during the Miss USA pageant she said that marriage should be between a man and woman. She said in later interviews that she does not support gay marriage (California voters voted to prohibit gay marriage last November).

Some have questioned whether her comments cost her the Miss USA title, and she's been the subject of much criticism from pro-gay-marriage activists.

Now, Miss California officials say they are looking into whether Prejean violated rules by working for a group opposed to gay marriage and by posing semi-nude. It's unclear whether she could lose her California crown if officials determine that she broke the rules. Prejean has said she did nothing wrong.

ahhh, now we'll get to the bottom of it.

I hope she doesn't lose her crown over this.

And why? Because if it happens the religious right will turn her into some sort of martyr.

"She lost her crown because of those mean old fags homosexuals and their nasty ways".

I can just hear it now....
