Miss California and Gay marriage



Recommended Posts

What is with the right and this messiah thing? I have never thought of Obama as a messiah nor do I agree with everything he has done. No one I know agree's with him 100%.

It actually is really dumb. When they start with the messiah, savior, whatever thing it just shows they can't articulate opinions without put downs.

It actually really irritates me. I don't assume every single righty loved Bush or even voted for him. Ok you don't like Obama, we get that but don't you have something more substantial than hitler and messiah, like a specific policy or executive order you did not like? Not just "he is a socialist". I doubt half the people who say that even know what the F it means.

Unlike BJean, I think Prejean was right to state her opinion. If they wanted a politically correct answer, Perez could have phrased the question differently (ie, "Gay marriage is a hot-button issue right now. Do you think not allowing gay marriage is constitutional? Why or why not?").

But to stir the pot a little, let me say this: I caught her "rebuttal speech" from when Trump let her keep the crown, and I think she is a terrible speaker. Total eye candy, but a terrible speaker.

I agree that you can show people respect even if you don't agree with everything they do.

I also have trouble believing that some people aren't just paying lip service because it sounds politically correct, but that they have pretty deep-seated bigotry at their core.

They certainly may. However, all this debacle did was prove that those who DO feel negatively about things will HAVE to be fake or face the consequences. You can't really change how people feel about certain issues. But for those who say that some are fake, well, now you see why.

Many on the left DO see him as akin to the second coming. There were those who were on YouTube the day he got elected saying that Obama was going to pay their mortgage and their car notes. I saw it myself.

Heck, I've even heard people in line at the store talking as if Obama is "gonna do this and that" for them. What's so sad is something about him makes certain people less reliant on themselves and instead believing that he's gonna do something for them. It's sickening.

Trust me, I know. And if anything, he's working past socialism and more towards the fascist side.

They certainly aren't being selected for their IQ. :crying:

actually it's quite sickening for back handed slams for some who are actually intelligent enough to know better, but have faith he can do the job he was HIRED to do.

like the state of CA voting against gay marriage, the US voted prez obama in office.

I think she did okay, she seemed to be very fustrated with all that had transpired. She needs rest, she was tired.

Lulu, I'm not talking about those voters. I don't understand those voters, but I'm not talking about every single person who voted for him.

I'm solely talking about those select individuals who voted for him based on everything other than believing he could actually do the job as president, and that includes those who believe they would get something out of it.

I'd be happy to tutor this charming young woman in the nuances of speech. Nothing creepy about that, is there?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
