I kid you not, my morning news was interrupted by a press conference held by Donald Trump and the Miss USA pagent. The big news (that somehow was more important than sports and traffic) was that Trump was allowing her to keep her position as Miss California, even in the face of a recent "racy photo scandal". If you have 7 minutes of your life you're willing to waste, check out video of the press conference here. Although I'll save you some time. The two highlights were Trump talking about how he's studied the racy photos very carefully (..creepy..) and how Trump is singlehandedly destroying the beauty pagent competition in the TV ratings. Way to go, I guess?My favorite part of all of this is that it seems every talking head on the radio and the TV has an opinon on our dear Miss Prejean. Depending on which side of the political aisle you're on she's either a patriot of a typical right wing hypocrite. In the last couple weeks she's been criticized in the press for getting plastic surgery and is rumored to be dating michael phelps. Lets face it, this is an amazing ammount of press for a beauty queen best known for her strong support of opposite marriage. All of the sudden it's like the whole country has forgot what a beauty pagent is. Some people are acting like she's running for political office. I'm not totally familiar with how the Terminator is running California but I don't think Miss California has her finger on the button. She doesn't, does she?
What's my point? If I could combine Miss California with Zombies and Swine flu into one bikini filled post, I would easily triple my daily hits.
