Miss (Liberal) USA?
Andrea Tantaros ^ | 4/21/09 | Andrea Tantaros (who is hot)

Posted on 04/22/2009 3:00:25 AM PDT by gridlock

Apparently, there is a litmus test to be Miss (Liberal) USA these days.

Until the interview round of the contest, Carrie Prejean– who was representing the State of California was the front-runner. She drew a question by celebrity blogger Mario Armando Lavandeira, Jr. who posts under the pseudonym Perez Hilton, the “Queen of Mean.”

(snip)

When people are arguing for tolerance and equal rights for gays they undermine their own argument when they resort to intolerant, hateful language that shows a complete disrespect for women. Whether you are talking about gay marriage or the price of coffee at Starbucks, it is absolutely unacceptable to use that language about females to advance your argument.

The double standard is astounding.

I didn’t hear the outrage when Joe Biden said that he and Barack Obama are against gay marriage. No incendiary language, no insults, no four letter obscenities.

Why is it acceptable for Obama and Biden to have this opinion but not a conservative female?

(snip)

I ask: How can a pageant that is supposedly designed to advance women put a judge who clearly has no respect for females on the judging panel?

(snip)

This issue goes beyond beauty contests and reveals a much scarier truth: You cannot voice a dissenting opinion without being assaulted by the progressive left. The left is not interested in debating, only suppressing debate. Destroying your life and career is the sentence for anyone who dissents on these issues. The activists will carry out the sentence with the willing assistance of a compliant media.

If Perez Hilton, The Miss USA organization, Donald Trump, the mainstream media and the Left want to get in battle over free speech, tolerance and treatment of women, bring it on.

The reason Miss California is punished and BO is rewarded is because everybody knows that BO is lying and Miss California is telling the truth. Even on Today, Matt Lauer was basically asking "Why didn't you just lie?"

And, of course, the reason the Miss USA pageant does not care is because it is not really all about advancing women. It is about ogling women is swimsuits. A fine pastime, I will admit, and one I have no problem with. But that is all it is.

I often wonder what happened to America to give perverts such power over our thoughts. Soon it will be a hate crime to even think of them as rump rangers. How crazy is that?

absolute fact.... Newburyport gay blogger put up the names, addresses, and phones numbers of Catholics in MA who signed a petition ... at church ... against gay marriage a few years ago. Bill Galvin provided the data to the blogger.

Additionally, I know for a fact that Universities go after people who they deem conservative to the point where the conservative either leaves or is sumarily destroyed. This includes Catholic bashing on issues like abortion, gay marriage, gays in the military, illegal aliens, didn't bash Bush, etc. ... no kidding!!!

Heard last night that NBC chose the ‘judges’.

Of course they chose that madman to be a judge.

IMHO, their bias showed and it also showed how corrupt the entire pageant personnel are and how very afraid they are of the gay lobby

We’re moving beyond the former Soviet model in which party membership was essential to one’s career. Welcome to Obama’s new old Soviet system.

American parents take their life savings and pay a huge chunk of it to put their children into these brainwashing mills to have their children thoroughly indoctrinated and their brains scrubbed of all the values those parents tried to teach their children.

Stop funding the Marxist madrassas!

If they truly want the pageant to be what it represents, let the women dress in whatever swimsuit they want and let the viewers vote a la American Idol. The skimpiest bathing suit would win.

Why don't they have straight guys as the judges for Miss USA??? There shouldn't be ANY political issues like this interjected into such contests.

We have had two weird episodes of this type in the last week. The crude and obscene "teabagging" jokes by snarky liberals on CNN and MSNBC who sought to suggest a pornographic connection to the Tea Parties. And now aggressive bullying of Miss California over the same-sex marriage controversy. What is this all about? Are ALL Americans now going to be subjected to such aggressive tactics?

Perez Hilton: “DON’T ASK ME ABOUT THE SHAPE I’M IN I CAN’T SING I AIN’T PRETTY AND MY LEGS ARE THIN.”

Carrie Prejean: DON’T ASK ME WHAT I THINK OF YOU I MIGHT NOT GIVE YOU THE ANSWERS THAT YOU WANT ME TO

GOD COME TO ME ‘N SAID DON’T YOU UNDERSTAND STICK BY ME I’LL BE YOUR GUIDING HAND

Yep, incredibly hot...I wish I were single, handsome, rich, oh well...you get my drift...listen, this fat fag HIlton, a guy wwho is nothing but a glorified paparazzo, a guy (gay?) whose life depends on a laptop and without that laptop he is nothing...a certified member of the Pink Mafia....his antics and actions on this contest will do nothing to advance the gay marriage cause in this country...au contraire, it will polarize the issue even more...

Miss California...I want to have your babies...
