Her answer: I personally believe that U.S. Americans are unable to do so because, uh, some people out there in our nation don't have maps and uh, I believe that our, I, education like such as uh, South Africa, and uh, the Iraq, everywhere like such as, and I believe that they should, uhhh, our education over here in the US should help the US, uh, should help South Africa, it should help the Iraq and the Asian countries so we will be able to build up our future, for us. lj3iNxZ8Dww
Ram Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 :haha: There are some really dumb people out there..
fineleg Posted August 28, 2007 Author Posted August 28, 2007 Miss South Carolina's answer included all the important pageant words. Among them: believe ... Americans ... education ... help ... future ("South Africa" seemed oddly dated. Was she running on a faulty version of Pageant '95?)
Ram Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 The answer started with a - " I personally believe...."....:haha:
CC1981 Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 ef_GWlq3hzw PS: It is a spoof done a few years ago on american people by some Aussie tv show. The guy went to the US and started talking to americans around malls armed with these maps (i saw it with much better resolution and a longer program). What they did is label Australia as 'iran, pakistan' etc. and in the last dood's case, they labelled the main Australian island as 'North Korea' and labelled Tasmania as 'South Korea'. Hence the 'i did not realize NK is so much bigger than SK' comment. Really, american people suck at geography, They really do.

Guest dada_rocks Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Our very own Miss World Priyanak Chopra when asked who is your living lady legend blurted Mother Teresa..She most probably prepared for who is ur lady legend..........brainless gals romping half-naked ( no complaints for this part from me) blurting out of prepared text in response to very primal questions..
Predator_05 Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Who gives a sh*t ? In case you mongs haven't noticed, it's a beauty pageant. Who contests beauty pageants ? Dumb@ss airheads like that blonde. They get marked on the size of their waists and how proportionate their tits are in comparision with the rest of their body - not on their intelligence.
The Outsider Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 not on their intelligence. Why do they get asked these questions if they are not marked on it?
The Outsider Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Got to say this one is so hillarious it actually looks planned.:haha:
kumble_rocks Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Live TV does that I guess! She was a like a deer caught in headlight. Admitted her mistake stating she was very nervous and her mind became blank.
Guest dada_rocks Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Why do they get asked these questions if they are not marked on it? I believe it's first stage of their preparation towards popularizing all those causes which one usually associates with intelligence.
Predator_05 Posted August 28, 2007 Posted August 28, 2007 Why do they get asked these questions if they are not marked on it? Points for personality, i guess.
