Carrie Prejean and Sean Hannity kiss the god of hypocrisy
I rarely look at Sean Hannity but his interview with Carrie Prejean is unbelievably ridiculous.
There are a few things I would like to point out:
It was a seven minute saccharine lovefest. Hannity did everything but kiss Prejean's feet. Maybe he should have pretended she was Kevin Jennings.
Prejean does address the sex tape controversy, making sure to term it as something she did for a boyfriend whom she "loved and cared about."
Next time, she should send cash.
And of course she continues to play the victim. The same line about how "the left isn't showing tolerance" is throughout this interview.
Prejean conveniently forgets that a lot of us on the left, including a lot of lgbts, supported her right to free speech and we felt that Perez Hilton went too far in attacking her.
However, we know a phony when we see one and when Prejean sought to extend the 15 minutes of fame afforded to her by Hilton's nonsense, that's when many of us began to part company with her.
Prejean's decision to align herself with the National Organization for Marriage irregardless of her duties as Miss California and her tacit approval of how the right was trying to canonize her is the main reason that a lot of folks are not taking her seriously.
It's a lesson that many should remember - don't put yourself on a pedestal if you have feet of clay.
And while she continues to make the conversation about herself, what about the countless lgbt couples who are the true victims of Prejean's pursuit of fame; the ones who don't make the speeches to phony pro-family groups or get to be interviewed on national news programs.
The ones who are denied relationship protection partly because of the false images she is putting out there. It seems that no one gives a damn about them and that's the real shame.
Lastly, Prejean says she is so proud of the book because it is the first one she wrote.
No offense, but if girlfriend wrote one word of that book without a ghost writer, then I'm Kim Kardashian slumming.

Next week, after Carrie Prejean's book is remaindered, I am going to have to read that last chapter: her advice for girls. (Topics covered: How to get someone else to pay for your breast implants; Why filming yourself masturbating is probably not as good an idea as it might seem right now; How to make a career out of pious hypocrisy...)
I only feel sorry for her ghostwriter.
I will always marvel at how LSC's [ Lib / Socialist / Communists ] are SO full of unending HATE. If you ever smile it will NEVER be from the heart.
Your insides burn and will kill you in the end.
Well that was weird. Might I suggest that you take your medication before you attempt to comment on my blog, anonymous ;p
