What I never understood about this one was when did the politics of Perez Hilton, become so important that if you disagreed with him you lost your job.

[maldonsfecht]

agreed, he really is the lowest-common denominator... whatever his progressive ideals may be, he is so abrasive and self-aggrandizing that he sets his cause back.
I have nothing but support for this girl, and I wish her all the best

[OldChum]

Agreed , even though the activity of pageant's is so weird and degrading .

[leewgrant]

These Miss Whatnots surely realize that they are not paid to be controversial. All they are are a pretty smile and lot's of T&A. They are told what to say and if they go beyond that, well, we see what happens.

[Benn]

She's at least shown moreso why these things are a joke. How come every contestant didn't get that question?

She should sue them, good for her.

BTW Carrie, if you need a hug I'm there for you!

[PublicAnimalNo9]

Suing for what??? Do these bimbos actually believe their "title" means something in the real world?? Gimmie a break. I dunno what's sadder, the contestants or the drooling, pathetic sorts that watch this dreck and help to perpetuate bimboism.

She's not controversial. She respectfully supported traditional values.
The controversy there is the intolerant runt and his self hating pack of fools.

Uh, she was fired not for holding a retrograde view, but rather for immediately afterwards championing political causes and being used as a fundraiser for said political causes, all of which is against the rules for a winner.

hardly a "retrograde" view; traditionalist perhaps, but it's not an uncommon view

Actually, isn't the claim something like she failed to meet her contractual obligations? She of course denies it. Should be an interesting court case. I hope she gets like a gazillion bucks.

This woman made rather rude remarks about a group of people. And she's from California. I ahve no support for this stupic, valley-girl.

That just so happen to denigrate and actively seek to limit the rights of a group of people. Those types of "values" have no place in today's (supposedly progressive) society.

What rude remarks were those? She stated that she believes that marriage is and should remain, between a man and a woman. That is how the world has operated for millenia, it's never even been questioned until recently, and the idea of gay marriage certainly isn't universally accepted.
I am personally for gay civil-unions with equal status legally, but the term marriage is for a man and a woman.
That is not an attack on anyone's rights, it's a continuation of thousands of years of tradition, both religious and civil.

They asked what she thought and she told them. Just because you don't like her answer dosen't make it wrong.
So in other words, she should just shut up. Don't go outside the rarrative, stay with the politically correct things they tell you to say.
