California Miss USA Contestant Knew the Cost

Yet here was a young woman who knew exactly what she believed and why, and was not about to forfeit those values to win the favor of someone in a position to make her dream come true.

Like the proverbial tree planted by the water, Prejean was not about to be moved.

“I knew at that moment I was not going to win,” she said. “It’s not about being politically correct for me; it’s about being Biblically correct.”

Soon that openly gay judge, Perez Hilton, was vilifying her on his Web site, proving once again that this crowd that once pleaded for tolerance has become the most ruthlessly intolerant crowd of all.

Of course not a peep was heard from the ACLU regarding Prejean’s right to embrace and espouse the tenets of her faith.

I never heard of Perez Hilton before. The question isn't why the ignorant bigot was appointed as a judge, the bigger question is, why did the pageant put the question into the process if not to use it as a deliberate opportunity to be bigoted and intolerant?

A beauty contest flushes out faces, bodies, talent, poise, class and intellect.

Obama holds the conviction that marriage is one man/one woman. Why does he get a free pass from being victimized by the cartoon characters?

Fascinating!
