Folks, I don’t watch beauty pageants, period. I think them relics from another era. But last Sunday in the Miss America pageant, someone shone not only because of her external beauty, but also because of her inner beauty. Her name is Carrie Prejeane, and she was Miss California. Her beauty greatly outshines the coarse bigotry of a certain trash-blogger and potty-mouth named Mario Armando Lavandeira, who goes by the alias “Perez Hilton.”
For reasons lost to me, pageant producers hired this disturbed and disturbing individual as someone qualified to judge the beauty of another. So he got to ask Ms. Prejean a question about gay marriage. Miss. Prejeane answered from the depths of her convictions. Lavandeira, being a militant gay activist, didn’t like the answer and for that, he diss’ed her. Then he went on TV and to his video-cast and insulted her by calling her the most vile names a man – a real man – would not call a woman.
Evil is now being called “good” and good, “evil”.
