my favorite part is the shot from the pageant in which Carrie Prejean's fans are holding up signs that spell "CALIFORINA"!!! sounds like a type of hot cereal.
People who say "uh" and "um" a lot during formal speeches and presentations annoy the shit out of me. There are notes in front of you. Presumably you have rehearsed. Why do you need to fill space?
@Katxyz: One of my English teachers demonstrated how annoying "um" is by having some students read aloud a dramatically-charged passage from A Doll's House, inserting "um" at the start of every sentence.
The only reason people are actually listening to this swine-flu inftected word vomit is because she's pretty and was on TV for being pretty. If she were this stupid and average looking, no one would pay any attention to her. Therefore join me in hoping that her face implodes.
"But I think that there should be rights for people, you know, especially in California. I think that people that are homosexual should have some rights, you know, hospital rights, and things like that."
I mean, yeah. Like, if they're dying of AIDS (which they inevitably will be), we should probably throw some pills at them. Other than that, we shouldn't be responsible for their sinful lifestyle! PRAISE JEBUS.
You know, the marriage of our current president's parents would have been illegal in several states under anti-miscegenation laws that were still on the books at the time of Obama's birth. A lot of the arguments against racially mixed marriage were the same as you hear against same-sex marriage - "it will hurt the children, children will grow up without good homes and parents, the children will never amount to anything, it's unnatural, it will cause a breakdown in society, it goes against tradition" etc. I'm pretty sure that most Americans, even those who wouldn't personally like to see it in their families, are not all worked up about interracial marriage anymore. I like to think that eventually same-sex marriage will go the same way, as it gains legal standing state by state until eventually it seems quaint that it was once banned.
@Flackette Goes Retro: Also - I would like to invite her over to the house of the most stable and loving couple I know, a nurse and a police officer who have two darling pre-school daughters. They have arts and crafts days in the kitchen, birthday parties with homemade cakes, pinatas and tu-tus, dance and sing and wear out their parents. They own a home in a nice middle-class neighborhood and have family and friends over for picnics. They are college sweethearts who walked down the aisle as soon as the younger one graduated. And they both happen to be women.
@greengrey: yeah, she is the type who when they get marriage, during her bachelorette party she will drag her entourage of drunk obnoxious ignoramuses around to LA gay bars
@Mmmmkay is a naughty girl with a bad habit!: Exactly. I can't wait for her to decide she wants to be a pop star and drop her cd entitled "Penis and Vagina, the Way God Wants it."

I like how she tried to pretend that saying that she's against same sex marriage ISN'T discriminatory.
Does she even know what it fucking means?
