For the first time EVER, Trump’s catch phrase doesn’t irritate me.
I know what you are thinking, “Just another liberal, gay loving blogger!”
Well, yes, you may be right about that, but the truth is, with the rise in hate-based crimes, we don’t need any more “respected” people in the spotlight, trying to further their agenda and justifying a crazy person’s actions.
But let me set the record straight, Carrie Prejean wasn’t dethroned because she had a case of diarrhea mouth or because she let her breasts hang out. She was “fired” because she wasn’t fulfilling her duties as Miss California, failing to appear at 30 events.
And thankfully she didn’t. From what I have read about her, her mission was not to mentor at-risk youth, or to feed the hungry… or anything else. She took it upon herself to be the spokesperson for traditional marriage. And what exactly does that have to do with Miss California?
Nothing, as far as I can tell.
The real problem here is not that SHE personally thinks the traditional definition of marriage is between a man and a woman, but the fact is she represented California as though ALL residents should feel that way.
Well, she was way off.
Being diplomatic when you are in a role of leadership–being astute with your own values while representing the people as whole is the job.
I applaud Trump and the pageant to make such a difficult (yet easy for me to make) decision to fire her.
I am just wondering how much time will go by before we see her spread in Playboy…
