Carrie Prejean's moment of truth ~ By Joseph Farah

By Joseph Farah Posted: July 10, 2009 1:00 am Eastern © 2009 Have you ever had a moment of truth? Have you ever faced a situation where your response could either cost you your worldly dreams or dishonor your fundamental core beliefs? Have you ever had to choose between honoring God or conforming to the world? I haven't had much to say about Carrie Prejean's "moment of truth" at the Miss USA pageant. But recently I heard her explain her experience in that contest – and it made an impression on me. The first time I saw her respond to the question that caused so much controversy, I was, shall we say, less than impressed. I thought she waffled. She started out on one track, attempting, it seemed to me, to split the difference on the issue of same-sex marriage. "Speechless: Silencing the Christians," by Don Wildmon, lays out determined strategy of coalition of liberal secularists, homosexual activists and Fortune 500 companies Perez Hilton: "Vermont recently became the fourth state to legalize same-sex marriage. Do you think every state should follow suit? Why or why not?" Prejean: "Well, I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. We live in a land that you can choose same-sex marriage or opposite marriage. And, you know what, in my country and in my family I think that I believe that marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anybody out there, but that's how I was raised, and that's how I think it should be – between a man and a woman." Within minutes of that show being aired, I was literally inundated with e-mails from people who saw it and were proclaiming Miss California a hero. I watched it a few times and couldn't see what they were seeing. To me it sounded like she was trying to have it both ways. However, the reaction to her statement was strong – on both sides of the issue. In fact, that is a gross understatement. Carrie Prejean was virtually crucified for her expressing a preference for traditional marriage. She was insulted, vilified, and her politically incorrect answer cost her the crown. She was later stripped of her Miss California crown, too, by people who have no business running a beauty pageant – just as the homosexual activist blogger who asked the question had no business being a judge.

Guess who fired Miss California ~ By Chelsea Schilling

Prejean attorney: 'If she were a b-tch, I think I would have picked up on it' By Chelsea Schilling Posted: June 17, 2009 9:38 pm Eastern © 2009 WorldNetDaily This is one of the most rude individuals I have ever had the displeasure of working with in my entire 28-year career in public relations. She was rude. She was obnoxious. She's a liar, and she's not a nice person. … There's nothing 'Christian' about her." Such was the description to WND of recently fired Miss California Carrie Prejean by a spokesman representing Keith Lewis, producer of Miss California USA. Publicist Roger Neal said the beauty queen refused to work with the pageant to attend scheduled events, so they kicked her out. But Prejean's attorney, Charles Limandri, sees it another way. In an interview with Fox News' Bill O'Reilly, he said the head of the Miss California USA pageant is an open homosexual who does not approve of Prejean's opposition to same-sex marriage – and that is the real reason he terminated her contract. "He's a militant gay activist who did a movie promoting same-sex marriage," Limandri said. "This issue is very near and dear to his heart." O'Reilly asked, "Is he gay?" Don't believe today's anti-God, deceptive media. Find out what God REALLY says about sex and homosexuality in the best-selling book that champions the absolute truth of Scripture: "Shocked by the Bible: The Most Astonishing Facts You've Never Been Told" – autographed! Limandri responded, "He's an openly gay man who did actually produce a movie in support of same-sex marriage. Since you're asking me, I am telling you: He's an ideologue, and he's not going to tolerate someone with that viewpoint wearing a crown and sash. That's what you see happening here." Lewis, the man who fired Prejean, openly admitted to being homosexual in a May 1 interview with Reuters. He is executive producer of a same-sex marriage movie titled "For the Bible Tells Me So." In the film, producers attempt to discredit biblical teachings concerning homosexuality. The 2007 movie introduces its viewers to five self-professed "Christian" families, each with a homosexual child. "Can the love between two people ever be an abomination?" the film synopsis asks. "Is the chasm separating gays and lesbians and Christianity too wide to cross? Is the Bible an excuse to hate?"

Carrie Prejean talks to Greta "On the Record"; Trump is trumped

From TheREALjohnny2k youtube channel Donald Trump needs to step up to the plate. He needs to support Carrie Prejean, or explain why he isn't supporting her. Did Donald Trump wilt under pressure? That is what I'm thinking. The firing of Carrie Prejean as "Miss California" was totally unjustified and uncalled for. Yes, there were "trumped" up accusations, and a certain segment of society, a small minority, was able to overpower Donald Trump. At least, to me, that is how it appears.

Miss USA 2010 ~ By Doug Powers

By Doug Powers © 2009 Does anybody know who won the Miss USA competition a few weeks ago? A lot of people think that Miss California, Carrie Prejean, won. She didn't. Carrie was the first runner-up. Prejean's refusal to cave to pressure and apologize for her opinion on same-sex marriage may have set a dangerous precedent, and made the Left regret the question was ever asked. Because of all the exposure, Prejean's going to make more money than she ever would have otherwise, especially now that she's got a gig at Fox News. Due to this example of how ticking off the PC bunch can translate to big exposure and bigger dollars, here are some responses I predict we might hear at next year's Miss USA pageant: Q: Miss Texas, if you were Miss USA and an attack on our nation occurred, what would you consider your role to be? A: Well, first I'd consult my personal hero, George W. Bush. [Continue reading]

Liberal Taliban issues fatwa against Miss California ~ By Ann Coullter

Ann Coulter:
"Not even Dick Cheney can incite the blood-curdling rage of liberals at the sight of a sexy evangelical Christian. Paula Jones, Katherine Harris, Michele Bachmann, Sarah Palin and, most recently, Miss California, Carrie Prejean, have all come under a frenzy of attacks from liberals." [Continue reading]

Truth, lies and PC attacks ~ By Barbara Simpson

Bottom line, [Perez Hilton] said, Miss USA should be politically correct. In other words, there's no room for dissent on "gay" marriage. Even the pageant director said, "Religious beliefs have no place in politics in the Miss CA family." Some family – populated by mind-numbed robots who are only allowed to speak approved opinions and language." read more | digg story

Here she comes, Miss Integrity ~ By Patrice Lewis

It's driving Perez Hilton nuts that Carrie Prejean is receiving all sorts of favorable media attention from a bunch of "dimwitted" conservative talk-shows and bloggers. How dare these people applaud this woman? He should get the attention, not her. He is clueless that Miss Prejean may have lost the battle but won the war, and kept her integrity. read more | digg story

Miss California gets backing of lawmaker ... from Alabama ~ By Chelsea Schilling

While many in Hollywood ridicule her, scores of Americans are now applauding Miss California's stance against same-sex marriage – including one Alabama lawmaker who drafted a resolution supporting her. At Sunday night's Miss USA pageant, Carrie Prejean was asked the one question she dreaded most, and her answer brought her both scorn and praise. From the article:
But while many Hollywood actresses stand by Hilton and condemn the beauty queen for her beliefs, one lawmaker is has drafted a resolution in support of the courageous contestant. State Rep. Jay Love, R-Montgomery, told the Montgomery Advertiser that there are those "telling people what they can believe and what they can say," which he believes is wrong. He said Prejean is being ridiculed and punished for refusing to support a lifestyle that goes against her beliefs. "I don't believe that's right," Love said. He said he applauds her for not compromising her beliefs by giving a politically correct answer. The bill was introduced Tuesday and every member of the House Republican Caucus and some Democrats have signed on as co-sponsors. However, State Rep. Alvin Holmes, D-Montgomery, said the resolution cannot pass because he claims Miss California is associated with right-wing organizations and supports discrimination. [Emphasis mine] "I am not for the Alabama Legislature honoring her in any kind of way," Holmes said. [Continue reading]
