She was stupid. Period. Who did she think was in the audience? Who does she think patronizes a beauty pageant (be it Miss USA or Mr. Olympia)? This reminds me of Mel Gibson making negative comments abut Jews in his drunken rant? Who has the power in Hollywood? Um… hello?
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
At least 52% of the people in her state VOTED that marriage is a union between a man and a woman....UM...HELLO!!!!!!!!???
By the way saying, “that’s how I was raised” is the mark of a coward. If you hold a value claim it as your own and defend it—don’t hide behind the phrase “that’s how I was raised.” Most people, at some point in their lives, realize that some aspects of “how I was raised” was simply wrong and reject the examples and models of their parents. The question was not “how were you raised?”
Instead of asking public figures if they believe in gay marriage interlocutors should be asking them, “do you believe people should be treated equally?” That is the question America has had to ask itself again and again… in the 1860s, 1920s, 1960s, 2009… It is a simple GED question and stupid people keep getting it wrong.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
The mark of a coward is one who can't be a fair and impartial judge, as Hilton was hired to be. And the only thing "Stupid. Stupid. Stupid" was Hilton and his reaction. Again, he tried to turn this contest into a make-shift infomercial for gay "marriage" and it backfired. That wasn't the time or the place for that.
Let’s get real, here. Did Hilton REALLY expect that no one on that stage believed that marriage is a union between a man and a woman?
At last count, least 43 states defined marriage as such. The federal government defined it at such. The current president does, as did his Democratic predecessor, who SIGNED THE DEFENSE OF MARRIAGE ACT INTO LAW.
I'm sorry. But, I thought this was the Miss USA contest, not the Miss PC USA contest, or the Miss Left-Wing-Liberal-Policy show. If cowtowing to gay activists is a requirement to be in that show, let the contestants know that from the get-go and they can make the decision, whether or not they wish to participate.
