Ya know, I've wondered over the past few weeks---do you really think the marriage issue is one that she felt so strongly about that she would have become an activist if the events of the pageant hadn't happened? Or do you think the negative press and celebrity has just given her an opportunity?

I think it's given her an opportunity.  I also had a look at the site that broke those pictures of her and they were clearly targeting her because of those remarks.

I'm glad she gets to keep the title.

I wonder if Trump let her keep the title because he couldn't figure out how to repo the breast implants he bought for her?

I'm actually surprised because there are other beauty queens who've been desashed for less.I think it's silly anyway. She said, "I'm a model and that's what models do" and she has a point, but aside from that...who really cares? I've always thought that "rule was silly.

Two things -

I feel badly for Miss North Carolina who actually won and the spotlight has never been around her.

I also find it interesting that he could fire Khloe Kardasian on his show for having to appear in court for her DWI charge and made a huge stink about how she was being irresponsible even though she had already served her sentence and was going for something like a probation check in, but he did not call these photos irresponsible.  Just a thought.
Take time to smell the roses.

I'd "desash" her.   :icon_twisted:
Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

Maybe you could even convince her to tell her story again...about how the question was a test from Satan, but she had God in her head and heart and he helped her stand firm on her response or some such....seriously...she said that in an interview.

Hopefully she knows better than to talk with her mouth full.   :biggrin:
