Miss California - American Voters Agree

Sunday Paper - May 3rd, 2009

Sadly in America anyone who sees clearly and speaks his or her mind has to now be concerned with being labeled a bigot by the ‘politically correct’ culture propagated by the mainstream media.  Hats off to Carrie Prejean, Miss California, for standing up for her “Biblically correct” beliefs.

“In my family, I … believe marriage should be between a man and a woman,” she said. “No offense to anybody out there, but that’s how I was raised.”

Prejean later told NBC: “I knew at that moment, after I’d answered the question, I knew that I was not going to win because of my answer — because I had spoken from my heart, from my beliefs, and for my God.”

Let’s not forget (especially those of you on the left), that tens of millions of Americans in 30 states have voted to protect the definition of marriage, i.e., marriage is between a man and a woman.  In fact, in the state of California, which Miss Prejean represented, over seven million people voted to protect marriage.

Friday, Andrew Breitbart had some insightful commentary in his piece for Real Clear Politics.

The latest high-profile act on behalf of the “community” came from the Miss USA pageant. Perez Hilton, the wildly popular Internet gossip and celebrity hit man, somehow got himself placed as a judge of female beauty at the Donald Trump-sponsored event. Not to be judgmental, but the apprentice behind that hire should be fired. But I digress.

On display at the Miss USA event was the activist left’s pageant of selective bullying, a concerted strategy to go after low-hanging fruit like Mormons. But the left leaves off its hit list members in good standing of its normal coalition - its “rainbow” coalition. In California, one of the gayest places on the map, blacks and Hispanics - who disproportionately disapprove of same-sex marriage - get a stunning pass from outraged proponents of gay marriage.

Since 9/11, the highly organized gay left has also been deafeningly silent on Islam’s anti-modern approach to homosexuality - let alone same-sex unions. The mullahs in Iran somehow get a major pass while the director of the California Musical Theatre in Sacramento is targeted for ruin. This contradiction is not subtle. Indeed, it’s obvious and pathetic.

In fact, in the beauty contest that was the 2008 presidential race, Barack Obama - the left’s hand-tailored candidate and an icon of “hope” in the gay community - like his vice president, Joseph R. Biden Jr., shares Miss California’s stance on gay marriage.

“I’m a Christian,” Mr. Obama told the Chicago Tribune. “And so, although I try not to have my religious beliefs dominate or determine my political views on this issue, I do believe that tradition and my religious beliefs say that marriage is something sanctified between a man and a woman.”

Breitbart then asks the ultimate question, “Why the pass fellas?”
