Gay Marriage Question on Miss USA

Yahoo is reporting on its home page: “Miss California fumbles over a controversial question during the pageant.” Now, you watch the video and you tell me if she fumbles or not. It seems to me that Yahoo may just not like her answer.

The question was whether she supports gay marriage. The answer (after some hemming and hawing and political correctness) was no. And it may have cost her the crown. Some in the crowd booed. And in the end, Miss California was runner up.

My question is what the heck is Perez Hilton judging a Miss America contest for? I guess one could argue that he would be an “impartial judge” who would be immune to the ladies charms, if you know what I mean. To me, it seems like a wasted seat. But more importantly, the guy is a raunchy sleazebag who, on his site, called Miss California “a dumb bit#$” today. He later apologized saying he was “just soooo angry, hurt, frustrated by her answer.” Awww. Someone doesn’t agree with you, poor thing.

But can you imagine America being a country where saying that marriage is between a man and a woman as being controversial?

Worst of all, because I’m pro-traditional marriage this hit me hard because my pageant hopes are up in smoke now. Hey, don’t laugh. I twirl a mean baton.
