Politically Incorrect?

Okay, so serious blogs are not going to become my thing. In fact, I have a plethora of blog ideas bopping around in my very full brain right now, but I don't have time to write just yet. Patience I tell you. I have one that I would like to make time to write tonight...be grateful because I'm putting off reading The Diary of Anne Frank (yes, I know that's supposed to be underlined I just can't figure it out right now) to type this out. It could be somewhat political, it could be somewhat controversial, it could be somewhat not politically correct...I don't know because I haven't quite processed it all so it may just come out a jumbled mess and I apologize now for it. Just leave me a comment that says, "Great work! Made perfect sense! Keep your day job!".

I read Fox News approximately 27 times a day. I like it. I'm a nerd. I like that too. I typically don't read it for pertinent information (although that's nice on occasion), I like to read it for the very weird and bizarre stories under the pertinent story section. I like to read it for stories like, "Pregnant Woman Gets Hit by Car While Fleeing Bear" (true story, check it out...no worries, the lady and the baby are fine...the bear isn't...but have no fear the lady is gonna give the kid the middle name "Bear" in its honor whether a boy or girl). Now these stories are wonderful and great in every way, but a pertinent story has been catching my eye lately...it may not really be a pertinent story, but it gets to be up in the pertinent section so it counts.

The story has been about Miss California, Carrie Prejean, in the Miss USA pageant. She was asked by Perez Hilton, a very openly gay man, what her stance was on gay marriage. She responded with, "I think that I believe that a marriage should be between a man and a woman. No offense to anyone out there, but that's how I was raised." She, later in the evening, would come in 1st runner up, quite possibly due to her answer to that question. In response to this answer she has been attacked all over the place for answering that way. Perez Hilton has called her many unmentionable names and many other people too. People are ticked and saying she had no right to say that! What in the world?! We live in America right?! Just checking. Our constitution is still in tact right?! Just checking. Isn't there some amendment about freedom of speech?! Sometimes I do not understand this country. I love it and I am proud to livein it. I don't want to take our freedoms for granted.

You know what? I agree with her and I have absolutely no shame in saying that. In the Bible it is clear about same sex relations. I will always stand on that. Do I have friends that are gay? Yes, as a matter of fact I do. Do I agree with their lifestyle? No, I do not. Nor will I ever. Will I continue to be their friend? Yes.

How come it's okay for people in favor of gay marriage to say such things about people who aren't in favor of it? Yet, when someone simply comes out says they disagree with it...in a non-confrontational way...the world is up in arms!

I, by no means, would ever say anything like that about people who are in favor of it...I do not agree with Fred Phelps or anyone involved with him either.

I just don't understand the world we live in...I don't understand double standards. It makes no sense to me.

On a side note, I do NOT agree withe pictures she had taken of her from a few years back...just so you know.

Let's see what kind of hits I get with this post...
