There are a few healthy women there and a few who look like they should have ran for Miss Chamber of Commerce.

Guess I have to watch more dancing with the stars cause I didn't know who Kelly Monaco was.

So do they still have a swimsuit competition or did they eliminate it for being too degrading?

That's f'd up. They asked Miss CA about gay marriage, and she opposed it. Miss NC got a gimme question about the economy.

Guess who won.

That's stupid that they're being judged on their answers (and beliefs). Everyone knows we don't care what these titty trees are thinking about.

Had she followed up with

"...but I still enjoy a roll in the hay with another hot blonde."

Then she could have still won.

He hit the nail on the head. Whether I support gay marriage or not, I'd like to strangle that annoying queer / media whore by the neck.

Gays can't marry. What is it they don't understand? They can have a contract between each other that says they are a union (of sorts). They have terms for all the other gay stuff they do. Pick a term other than marriage.



But Nnooooo !!!!!


We want to be married.




Note to self. See what you wrote about staying on topic.

Ok then, maybe they should call it Tommy T-boning. "David, let's go down to the chapel and get Tommy T-boned before we go to the parade." Currently there are differences in the legal rights provided by marriage vs. civil unions. (You could have a civil union with some of the opposite sex too.) I think the name thing is semantics, but I guess there's a symbolic value to it. One could also argue that calling them two different legal terms puts them in danger of being treated differently under law. That whole "seperate but equal" thing has failed in the past.

But I digress, this is a debate about boobies, not gay marriage!

That whole thing that happened between the militant gayngry judge and that lovely creature is nothing less than sickening. I could see it if the guy was judging their shoes or something, but isn't there something just a little bassackwards about gay men judging female beauty? The fact that the coward then had the audacity to attack the girl's convictions by calling her a bitch the next day speaks volumes about his character. Of course, if she already has poor vision and this episode gives her low self esteem, it could be good for the rest of us. In my case she'd have to be technically blind and truly hate herself, but hey...

Well, based on what she's said since, she's pretty stupid, hard to believe, I know, I know.

Now she thinks she can have a debate with the mayor of San Francisco and that God put her on the earth to speak against gay marriage. She'll do more harm to her cause than good.

Next time it comes up for a vote though, she could stand at the polling booths and flash her boobs for people who vote against gay marriage. That's about the best she can do at this point!

Turns out this was a 'group buy'

Quote:
Pageant official: We paid for Prejean’s implants

She confirms that group paid for Miss California’s breast enhancement

LOS ANGELES — Shanna Moakler, co-executive director of the Miss California Organization, has confirmed the group behind the pageant paid for Miss California Carrie Prejean’s breast implants, weeks before she competed in Miss USA.

In a new interview with Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush, Shanna confirmed the news.

“Did you guys pay for it?” Billy asked Shanna directly.

“Yes,” Moakler said. “We did.”

The organization paid for Carrie’s breast enhancement prior to her competing in the Miss USA pageant, which was held in Las Vegas, almost two weeks ago.

“It was something that we all spoke about together,” Shanna said referring to herself, Carrie and Keith Lewis, Shanna's co-executive director. “It was an option and she wanted it. And we supported that decision.”

Shanna, a former Miss USA herself, defended the Miss California Organization’s decision to pay for the elective surgery.

“Breast implants in pageants is not a rarity. It’s definitely not taboo. It’s very common. Breast implants today among young women today is very common. I don’t personally have them, but you know — they are,” she added.

Shanna supported Carrie’s plastic surgery, however, she had a hard time standing behind Carrie’s opinion against gay marriage in her answer to a question from Perez Hilton during the Q&A portion of the Miss USA competition.

“The night of the show, I wrote Carrie and I congratulated Carrie and I also told her her answer, for me, did hurt feelings,” Shanna told Billy.


Carrie is still involved in a media frenzy, sparked by her controversial response at the Miss USA pageant, and Shanna claims the young woman has been avoiding responding to her Miss California bosses.

“We’ve tried really hard [to get in contact] and she keeps referring us to her mother and her PR person,” Shanna claimed. “That’s also sad for me… because, you know, there’s no hate here. I don’t hate Carrie Prejean. I supported her and I still stand behind her.”

When asked if stripping Carrie of her crown was a possibility, Shana said they need to see how things work out.

“I don’t want to fire her! I think she’s a great, young girl, and I got into pageants, because I want to help young girls. I want to guide young girls. I know what pageants [did] for me and I know what it can do for young women and also working within the community,” Shanna said.

“I don’t want to fire Carrie. I want her to use her platform, because this is her platform, I didn’t know she was this passionate about it … I’m glad I know now and I support and will help her, but …” she trailed off.

“Since you can’t communicate, when do you say, ‘Alright, come back and follow the Miss California itinerary and get on board or we’re going to fire you?’” Billy asked.

“I guess we’re all going to have to wait and see how that plays out because I don’t have the answers for that,” Shanna said.

gay marriage.... makes sense to me, i mean c'mon
two people...in love with something in common,
back when i was in school, we had this dude, he was
always smiling and happy all the time, he kinda got on
people's nerves after a bit, always gaying everything up the poor happy bastard. So for a feller to marry another gay person, well, they deserve each other,
don'tcha think? that feller in my school, he got pushed
down alot on the playground.
