Now, this whole thing got started because a lefty asked a righty a loaded question. Was it intended that way? Did Hilton know Prejean was a Christian and lay a trap? Or did he expect the Californian contestant to agree with his position, and lob her a softball? I neither know, nor care.
If the former, he is revealed as an asshole. Of course, that's not exactly a scoop, is it. OTOH, if the latter, it raises an interesting question; was he tilting the field to his preferred candidate? And if this is the case, is this whole flap just his way of distracting people from that? If so, he is revealed as an asshole. Of course, that's still not exactly a scoop.
So, what do we have? Ultimately, we have a dickhead, wholly unqualified to judge a beauty pageant (see previous post), asking a question that was bound to raise controversy one way or the other, generating a lovely little controversy and getting himself a bunch of press, and website hits. Hmm. Could it be that it was just a rules 4 5 play?
I don't know. All I'm pretty sure about, from both this controversy, and having visited Hilton's site (no link, you want to see it, go look for yourself, and don't forget your brain bleach), is the accuracy of my post head.
The question, so far unmentioned, which I have been consciously avoiding, "Do you think "gay" marriage should be legal?" I will weigh in, but not just yet.
