Texy Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 Last night, the Miss USA pageant crowned Miss Michigan Rima Fakih the 2010 Miss USA. Fakih, who hails from the large Arab American community in Dearborn, Michigan, is a Lebanese American and the first Muslim to ever win the crown. (Miss USA 1983 Julie Hayek was reportedly the first Arab American to get the title). In winning the title, Fakih defeated first runner-up Miss Oklahoma Morgan Elizabeth Woolard, who garnered headlines when she responded to a judge’s question about immigration policy by saying that she was “perfectly fine†with Arizona’s radical new immigration law. Just as they erupted over Carrie Prejean’s loss in the Miss USA contest 2009, the right is again alleging a liberal bias against Woolard. --- – Conservative radio host Debbie Schlussel blamed Fakih’s win on a supposed “politically correct, Islamo-pandering climate†in America and labeled her a “Lebanese Muslim Hezbollah supporter with relatives who are top terrorists.†----- Right wing pundit and Fox contributor Michelle Malkin ranted that “Fakih’s cheerleaders are too busy tooting the identity politics horn to care what comes out of her mouth†and that “the Miss USA pageant didn’t want to risk the wrath of the open-borders mob.†----- Conservative author Daniel Pipes, who was briefly appointed by former President George W. Bush to the U.S. Institute of Peace, opined that “this surprising frequency of Muslims winning beauty pageants makes me suspect an odd form of affirmative action.†–----- Fox News’s Gretchen Carlson complained that Woolard’s “informed opinion†may have cost her the crown, and said that Fakih may have won because we live in a “PC society.†She's a faakin American you dipsh!ts....who do you want to represent America? some bible verse chanting, fake tittied, dumb as a doorknob hillbilly?

Clarke Posted May 18, 2010 Posted May 18, 2010 The second thing that comes to mind is contestants do not have to be liberal by default. The first and most important thing: when the mainstream news channels debate on beauty pageants so often, it speaks a lot of the intellect of society.
