Miss California didn't say anything wrong. We support Carrie Prejean's right to have her own opinion.
Miss California answered honestly a question posed to her, and is being savaged for it.
Of course, the Left is calling her all sorts of misogynistic names, because that’s what the Left does. No doubt, here in Boystown, places like Sidetrack (that seem to look for any excuse whatsoever to weaponize the “c-word” and direct it gleefully at women) will be rolling relentless attacks against Carrie Prejean on Comedy and Showtunes nights.
Just like they did that to Sarah Palin, Cindy McCain, and Hillary Clinton. Because, frankly, Sidetrack really is the place to go in Chicago if you’re gay and hate women and think it’s fun to drink way too many frozen cocktails out of frosty mugs and make a complete ass of yourself on any given night.
Beauty contests are incredibly stupid.
Unless they involve Jake Gyllenhaal, Paul Rudd, Jude Law, and whatever speedo-related shenannigans our imaginations can conjure for the best swimsuit competition since last year’s Market Days at Hollywood Beach here in Boystown.
Carrie Prejean is not stupid. She’s honest. Wholly ignorant of her surroundings, and the fact that her crown’s in the hands of people who would give her big, Oprah-sized zeros for speaking her mind, but honest nonetheless.
And it’s acceptable that she does not support “gay marriage”. This is still America, despite attempts by Janet Napolatino, Eric Holder, and the current President to change that. Prejean can support, or not support, whatever she wants. After all, 80% of the people who voted for the current President did NOT support “gay marriage” in California (including almost ALL of his black supporters: the absolute largest group of voters to support Proposition-8 by demographic).
We keep telling you that the term “gay marriage” is the problem, not Prejean and Democrats who voted for the current President while deciding to institutionalize discrimination in the Golden State. As long as the word “marriage” is used, people will make statements like Prejean’s.
There is no doubt in our minds that Prejean is a good woman. We believe she would never actively campaign for any sort of discrimination in matters financial, healthcare related, involving pensions, or otherwise. But, the word “marriage” conjures a knee-jerk response in many people — including those millions of true blue Democratic lockstep voters who helped pick the current president while backing Prop-8.
Do you remember when “dried plums” were called “prunes”?
And prune sales were stagnant, so marketers decided to rebrand the product so people who had knee-jerk negative reactions to it would give prunes a chance, as “dried plums” instead.
Same product, better PR, increased acceptance.
The Left, being as slick as it is in all things marketing and branding, suspiciously doesn’t seem to grasp this concept…which makes us believe they have no real intention of ever securing equal partner benefits for all LGBTQ Americans. Allowing the word “gay marriage” to quash all attempts at true equality is poor public strategy. The only explanation for this stupidity is that the LGBTQ community, at large, really doesn’t want this to pass anymore than the black community ever wants its main issues to be resolved. What happens then? There’s a multi-million if not billion dollar grievance industry in this country. Successfully achieving equal partner rights, or successfully admitting racism as described by the Sharptons, Clyburnes, or Holders of this world no longer exists, would put an awful lot of well-established Leftist hucksters and clowns out of business. All the fun these people have screaming and yelling and attacking people would be lost.
Look at how delighted so many are to attack Miss California right now. It will be literally years before Prejean falls off the Sidetrack comedy playlist. Nobody beats a dead horse more gleefully than balding, aging, queens.
Except maybe Al Sharpton.
