So proud of Miss California

Miss USA was crowned the other night and unfortunately it was not Miss California. Perez Hilton (one of the judges) says she lost the crown because of the answer to his question. His question was, "Vermont recently became the fourth state to legalize same sex marriage. Do you think every state should follow suit? Why or why not?" This was Miss California's answer, "Well I think it's great that Americans are able to choose one or the other. Um, we live in a land that you can choose same sex marriage or opposite marriage and, you know what, in my country and in, in my family, I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman," Carrie said to a mix of boos and applause. "No offense to anybody out there. But that's how I was raised and that's how I think that it should be between a man and a woman."

I know that if this question was asked of many other contestants they would undoubtedly give the politically correct statement. So, even though Miss California didn't get the Miss USA crown she is definitely royalty. I am glad to have a such a good role model who stands up for what she believes in, representing our state!!
