It's being reported that former Miss California Carrie Prejean, who was suing the Miss California organization for religious discrimination, has settled her lawsuit without pocketing any of the over one million dollars she had requested. The reason? Two words. Sex tape.
TMZ is reporting
Carrie Prejean demanded more than a million dollars during her settlement negotiations with Miss California USA Pageant officials -- that is, until the lawyer for the Pageant showed Carrie an XXX home video of her handiwork.
And up until now, Prejean has been silent. But we have obtained an exclusive interview where the former Miss California discusses the controversy. Take a look.
You have to admit, she makes a good point. If Republican men can move past their sex scandals, why can't Republican women?

If she can do it, then she should. Sell the tape and make a million dollars, if possible.
If I had the kind of looks, I would probably get two or three, who knows ? No one. Until you do it. Then the Miss America pagent is less and less because the money is better. I would buy te pagent, and then show my video on TV or on Howard Stern, if possible. In Utah we have a lot of problems with money. So all the better if it were me. In Utah. But its her, so good luick.
I don't think Prejean's credibility problems have anything to do with being a Republican. This is not, strictly speaking, a "political" issue. She was not suing the pageant because they wouldn't let her be a Republican, she was suing them because they were supposedly discriminating against her deeply-held, conservative, Evangelical, anti-gay version of Christian faith. Her willingness to prostitute her own body for numerous photo shoots and a pornographic video called into question the foundation of her claim.
I think a lot of politicians (Republican or otherwise) get away with their sexual escapades because for all of our harrumphing prudery, we're okay with having a cheating husband as a representative in government as long as we're getting something positive out of it. Are jobs and money coming to my home town? Is my representative voting consistently against liberal socialist Democrats? Alright then, let him screw whoever he wants.
Prejean's situation is different, because she has absolutely nothing to offer anyone aside from her role as spokesmodel for prudery and intolerance. She has no other product to sell, and the one that she's got is tainted beyond repair.
I hope she got a kick out of posing nude and masturbating on camera. Good for her. But I also hope that she doesn't believe she can go on in the role of role-model for sexual conservatism. Sure she can go on with her life... just in some other line of work!
More like her credibility problems were exasperated by being a fundie jerk. Even when you remove that from the equation we're still left with a vacuous college kid raised in our beloved fame-at-all-costs media culture not thinking things through...but we would've largely shrugged that off had she not been a fundie jerk. Being a fundie jerk raised the standards bar for her.
And I thought Levi Johnston was the gift that keeps on giving.
Just a thought ... if you're "having sex with yourself" how is that "opposite sex"? She's having sex with herself ... she's a female ... pleasuring herself the same ways lesbians pleasure each other ... sooooo ... isn't this "same sex" and/or "homosexual sex"? Possible that she's a lesbian and because she hasn't had any sex education because of her radical religious views, she just doesn't know it.
But just like the wind blew her top open during the photo shoot, the wind turned on the camera, pointed it at her, and made her hand move in a rhythmic and surprisingly pleasing manner--it wasn't her fault!!! After all, Satan is the prince of the air, and what is wind but air with attitude?
Jay Leno disproved her claims with a high-speed vortex fan, the kind used on movie sets.
My comment wasn't serious. I never believed her story about the wind. :)

Funny lady
great material for late night comedians
anyone agree?

When I heard about her "book" STILL STANDING, I first thought "How's she gonna wring 50,000 words out of 'I chose to shoot myself in the foot by being a fundie jerk?'" I then thought "Doesn't she know that her 'book' title is the same as a song by a gay man with a legally sanctioned husband?" I then started working on a parody: STILL STUCK-UP by Callie Prejudge, which I supposedly translated into English from Textmessagese. Do you have any idea how hard it is to write in Textmessagese?
You mean Jay L / David L duo + the rest of the satirical gang? Couldn't agree more.Though, it seems there will be someone who will be creating vids like this - They always sprout in youtube. So stick around - I wonder how will miss republican reply on this one? (in real life).

The reason that Republican women can't move past their sex tapes is because according to Republicans women don't like to have sex, and ESPECIALLY wouldn't be having sex, before marriage, on tape!
As for Republican men, they can move on because, well, boys will be boys....
Another trend with GOP men's perceptions of women is that they're good for "hiking the Appalachian trail" with a la Sanford, or good for an office fling with per Ensign, or renting (Vitters hobby of choice). Women are accessories or play things.
Carrie Prejean is also part of another GOP habit - the mascot. They grab onto a very vapid nobody and turn them into the GOP poster of the week. From Joe the Plumber to Prejean. Invariably they turn out to not be what they claim and you'd think by now they'd get a clue and stop being doofuses. (And looking at your avatar there, I'm thinking you are on the same page as me when it comes to a certain GOP embarassment from Alaska. Talk about pretending to be something she's not. By now that nose ought to be long enough that she could use it to personally drill for oil.)
It sure should be by now.... Too bad that I can't fund a more current picture.... ;-)
Vote for Prejean. She takes family-values issues into her own hands.
LOL!!

Ha!
What must Dr. James Dobson and his Focus on the Family cronies be thinking right about now? Remember how they held Carrie Prejean out as the ideal of Christian womanhood? I read an opinion piece http://wp.me/pChUJ-5C by an evangelical preacher (believe it or not) who used to work in Christian Radio. He talks about how Dobson is notorious in broadcasting for his defensiveness, his screwed-up priorities, and his weird obsession with church-ified celebrities. He also gives an insider's look at the sweetheart relationship between Dobson, Focus on the Family, and this pitiful, disgraced beauty queen. Turns out even some Christians have had enough of Dobson and Prejean.

Good for those who have had enough.
Maybe she'll run against Barbara Boxer. She can't be much worse than Carly Fiorina or Meg Whitman.
And she obviously has "qualities" that the others lack......

Well, if Stormy Daniels can run against David Vitter, I don't see why not.
Stormy seems to be able to string words together coherently. Carrie, not so much.
