I don't think that many people that Ann and I think of as liberals have to wonder who she means.

How about the media people she listed? Do you think of them as liberals? I sure do.

"Let those who are without sin be the the first to cast the first stone". Or something like that. We really didn't read the Bible much in Catholic school, but that quote was the first to cross my mind in regard to the Ms. California fiasco.

It's not the question or even Prejean's answer. She complained about being prejudiced against & then went out & supported anti-gay rights organizations in conflict with the rules of the Miss Universe contest.

Now Prejean is a target & I don't think she will ever forget how foolish it was to oppose human rights. Remember Anita Bryant?

No it doesn't shock me.. The influence of religion is powerful - the reason i added (insert religion here). Aside from the non-religious influences that form the opinion against same-sex marriage, i find they all make a weak argument and when challenged on it, they seem to say its just not natural or just not right and dissapear. So i appreciate your comment, but it hasn't had an impact on me.

Yeah, kinda like another well-known, right wing female airhead we can think of ("wink-wink", "nod-nod")!

Far be it from FAUX to ever resist the opportunity to exploit an issue for ratings. Heck, if she suddenly came out attacking gay marriage and abortion, they'd happily make a "newscaster" out of Paris Hilton!

My point is that this divisive language, generalizations will only serve to manifest simplistic labelling. It simply isn't productive on either side.
