What are you talking about? I was answering Dixie's claim that she is some kind of "secret".And does being Muslim disqualify her from being Miss America?

Wow, that blonde chick has a Razr. Me too!!!
It never ceases to amaze me how a yard of fabric or the venue of entertainment determines the madonna/whore status of these contests.
No Desh really does have a point. Her point also applies to men. Most people tend to attribute qualities, abilities and character traits to attractive people that they simply don't have. If a person is attractive most people will assume that they are intelligent to the extent that when Ms. Pretty or Mr. Hunky demonstrates they have the brains of a ground squirrel, they will defend Ms. Pretty's or Mr. Hunk's intelligence.Desh's post is garbage. Some of the most amazing women I've ever met happened to also be smokin' gorgeous.

I don't know how many times I've had some new college graduate pretty boy with an underwater basket weaving degree foisted on me at work who has pretty, good natured, charming and utterly devoid of ability.
Because she is the daughter of an Ay-rab (yes I DO KNOW that Iranians are Persian) and Ay-rabs should not be winnin' no gosh danged Miss 'Murica contest, spacially when them thar Ay-rabs are Mooslim Ay-rabs!I just want to know why anybody would care if she was in a radio-sponsored pole dancing contest where they wore clothes?
This article from Loonwatch sums up the wingnuts pretty well.

Steady on, Desh.
If it weren't for the valuable educational work performed by contests such as this we'd all still be labouring under the false impression that fat lasses have the best personalities.
dude.... she is pretty damn hot.
Oh Come on SM. I've seen your pics. I've heard of gettin beat with the ugly stick but the whole damned tree must of fallen on you. Don't feel bad though. You aint in that canoe alone.Actually Desh what I've found is that there tends to be the opposite correlation. Maybe because good looking folks get more positive feedback, but we do tend to be smarter.
