She got fired for not showing up to work. Not because because the velvet mafia didn't like her opinion. *cough* *cough* BULLSHIT *cough*

Are you suggesting Ms Prejean was coming to all her scheduled events, and the pageant officials pretended they couldn't see or hear her?

Are you suggesting pageant officials scheduled events for Ms Prejean and failed to notify her?

Or is it possible that Ms Prejean has unpopular political views *and* a terrible work ethic?

(D) None of the above.

I think that this young 21 y.o. was psychologically raped by those that opposed her poorly articulared opinion. Because she is a relatively unsophisticated woman, and did not realize the harassment she was going to receive, and certainly would be illegal in any workplace environment, that she probably decided not to expose herself to the psycholocal abuse doled out on her. She should probably see a psychiatrist, and sue Trump for a hostile work environment created by his employee, "Perez Hilton."

Just not the one she thinks she's making.

The point is that no matter how many appearances she's missed and no matter how unconcerned Trump was with her politics or her topless photos,the Fox News crowd is never going to be convinced she's not a martyr for antigay Christianists everywhere. It's amazing how these hate groups always find ways to play the victim.

I think it's impossible to "psychologically rape" someone who has no psyche.

You lost all credibility (well, what remained) at "psychologically raped."

You were a no-show as a beauty queen and stood up Donald

Trump. Please be a no - show and stand up Maggie Gallagher as well. Now that you are free from his Trump'slutty agenda, get free from Maggie Gallagher'slutty agenda for you and your life. The National Organization for Marriage and "The Right" wants you to be their slut too. Don't be anyone's slut. Reach down under your own grease paint and find, and just be, the fine human being and young lady that you

are.

Not by a long shot.

Vanessa was robbed of her title because of a whole lot of prudishness over some very nice pictures. She, unfortunately, did not have a lecherous contest owner to opine how "beautiful" the pictures were and ride to her rescue. And despite it all, she went off and did very well for herself.

Carrie was fired because the job requirements (showing up and smiling) were apparently too much for her delicate constitution.

Turns out, I was right:

I'd fire her. You would too.
