harassment

Lots of folks are insinuating that Samantha is being harassed or intimidated. While that may be an issue in some cases, I fail to see how that situation is relevant here. Some evidence please?

@KitchenGirl

Tell me: how long should someone be able to get away with a crime before we say "ah fuck it" and let them be? Thirty years and you're home-free? Twenty? Ten?

Beauty Pageant Ideals

Is Miss USA being dethroned because she is sexual, or because she is a hypocrite? I can understand the latter, but the notion that the prurient pretenders who profit by parading tarts around in skimpy swimsuits on camera would blanch when the thong is removed to reveal that lo and behold (!) these are not animated barbie dolls but real people (!) makes their protests seem quite ridiculous. For punishment, someone should put the old wrinkled prunes up on stage for the world to see with nothing but tape on their nipples while they do a little dance and song about the erosion of family values.
