Miss America story

In the latest version on national news that is not news, networks are constantly discussing Miss California's comments during the televised pageant. Go ahead and turn to CNN or Fox News, it won't take long, I'll wait...

For those of you who aren't aware (I envy you) Miss California was asked about her opinions on gay marriage. She responded by politely saying she believed marriage should only be between a man and a woman. One of the judges, Perez Hilton (yes that's actually his name) is openly gay and consequently was very upset and has gone on a media tour afterward.



I DON'T CARE!!!

An honest opinion about a heated and divisive political issue got somebody upset?

NO WAY!!!

Both sides of the gay marriage debate have valid opinions and points and open discussions about this topic are needed. But those discussions need to be in the right format between the right people. Those discussions need to be well calm and well researched. They need to be between powerful people capable of making changes happen.

Attacks through Fox News by a dumb blonde and an entertainment tonight lackey is not an appropriate dialogue. It is a waste of everyone's time. Why don't we just strap a mic to a couple of idiots off the street while we're at it?
