Here's the thing....

... about the stupid Miss USA / Carrie Prejean thing. If you don't know, during the interview portion of the pageant, Prejean was asked her opinion on same-sex marriage and her answer was "I believe marriage should be between a man and a woman, no offense to anyone out there.." Openly gay (and more openly annoying) blogger Perez Hilton was a judge...obviously her answer did not please him (and others),,,,,,,,,,annnnd so began a huge controversy in the pageant world, the media, and the public with people demanding she be stripped of her crown. Blah, blah, blah, Donald Trump said she's keeping the crown (of which she was stripped *pun!!* a short while later for being stupid and taking nakey photos, but that's another story) yada, yada, yada.
So here's my point.. America... would you rather have representing you as Miss USA a woman who answered a question by giving her raw, honest opinion on a very sensitive subject KNOWING it could actually hurt her and/or jeopardize her chances of winning...
ORRRRRRR.....
A woman who hid behind a lie when she answered the question out of fear of it having a negative impact on her chances in the competition and affecting her public reputation... ???
