Miss Congeniality

Carrie Prejean, Miss California and runner up in last night's Miss USA pageant, has found herself in a very public and nasty feud with trashblogger Perez Hilton.

During the question and answer segment of the program, Hilton asked her opinion on gay marriage.

At first it seemed as though she was going to give an ambiguous, wordy answer the way all other contestants conduct themselves in boring fashion.

But Ms. Prejean fell back on her faith and principles saying she believes marriage as a union between a "man and a woman".

Hilton was visibly distraught after hearing her response and the audience reaction was mixed.

Today Hilton has resorted to juvenile name calling and has been bashing her on his blog.

MSNBC called the response "a serious mishap".

How far gone are we as a nation when a young woman is torn apart for adhering to Christian ideology; the same Christian principals under which America was founded.

Bravo Ms. Prejean-this was not a "mishap".

It was a refreshing reminder that there are still bright young minds out there in California.
