Miss California versus Gay Blogger Perez Hilton On Gay Marriage

    Perez Hilton reminds me of Angie Tempura, author of the "Bitch, Puhleeeze" blog and SNL Weekend Update guest.
    I don't disagree with the vitriol he's getting, but Ms. Prejean seems like a whiny little yotch, too.
    I don't fault her for the answer she gave Saturday night, even though I strongly disagree with her view. I fault her on her behavior Monday, when she began whining to anyone who would listen that she got screwed out of the crown. She's swallowed more sour grapes than Norm Coleman.
    What a bitch slap to Miss North Carolina. She won the damned contest, and she's been forgotten.
    It's a damned shame that Miss Cali is going to get so much more out of the experience (including deification as a free speech martyr on FNC) than the winner, who by the way, got the bailout question - not exactly a softball, either.
    May Phelpsie pull an F&R on this bimboid.

    Well, since "Perez" has admitted he gave her a zero for her answer, I guess she most likely did get screwed out of the crown.

    You're right, but she was asked what she thought, so she said what she thought. The rest of my points still stand.

    It is a beauty contest. There is nothing "beautiful" in bigotry. Why would she score higher?

    He's a judge. He judged her. That's what judges do.

    Again, there is no proof she's a bigot. That's a nice argument to use when someone won't agree with you but it doesn't hold water.

    hondo and I have nothing against homosexuals as long as they don't act uppity and know their place.

    She was asked "do you think....why or why not?" which in my mind clearly allowed for a "no" answer.

    It seems to me a judge shouldn't be able to give her a zero just because he didn't like the answer.

    Compare it to English class. If you turned in an essay and it came back to you with a zero or an F and the teacher said, "you got that grade because I didn't like what you wrote," you'd probably feel cheated, wouldn't you?

    As for the bigotry claim, well, I'll let hondo's answer speak for me too.

    Perez Hilton is a ridiculous, smarmy attention whore. About the only thing he's qualified to do is judge an antiquated, insipid beauty pageant, especially one ran by a ridiculous, silly millionaire mogul that doesn't even contain a talent portion.

    I think everyone agrees Hilton's a moron and that Miss California had a right to say whatever she wanted, but at the end of the day, she's a contestant in a beauty pageant, where how she looked in a swimsuit likely mattered more than her thoughts on gay marriage, which doesn't make me admire her anymore than I would Hilton.

    Not only that, his nomination secured the fate of Prop. 8.

    Funny thing is I have nothing against gay marriage. But I have nothing against anyone who disagrees with me.

    You like for people to disagree with you.
