CARRIE PREJEAN, MISS CALIFORNIA 2009 DID NOT WIN THE MISS USA PAGENT
BECAUSE SHE OFFENDED A VERY "POPULAR" CELEBRITY "GAY" BLOGGER, PEREZ
HILTON, WHO WAS A JUDGE. IT IS AMAZING TO ME THAT HE WAS ONLY ONE OF
13 TELECAST JUDGES AND YET EVERYONE SEEMED TO BE "AFRAID" OF WHAT THIS
GAY, CELEBRITY "GOSSIP" LITTLE MAN COULD DO TO THEM...WHAT HE MIGHT
SAY THAT WOULD/COULD/MIGHT/ PROBABLY WOULD NOT RUIN THEIR CAREER.
BY NOW YOU HAVE PROBABLY HEARD IT ALL.
PEREZ HILTON ASK MISS CALIFORNIA THIS QUESTION: "VERMONT
RECENTLY BECAME THE FOURTH STATE TO LEGALIZE SAME-SEX MARRIAGE. DO
YOU THINK EVERY STATE SHOULD FOLLOW SUIT? WHY OR WHY NOT?"
CARRIE PREJEAN ANSWERED, "I THINK IT'S GREAT AMERICANS ARE ABLE TO
CHOOSE ONE OR THE OTHER. WE LIVE IN A LAND YOU CAN CHOOSE SAME-SEX
MARRIAGE OR OPPOSITE MARRIAGE. AND YOU KNOW WHAT, IN MY COUNTRY,
IN MY FAMILY, I THINK THAT I BELIEVE THAT A MARRIAGE SHOULD BE BETWEEN
A MAN AND A WOMAN. NO OFFENSE TO ANYBODY THERE, BUT THAT'S HOW I WAS
RAISED AND THAT'S HOW I THINK IT SHOULD BE--BETWEEN A MAN AND A
WOMAN."
AS YOU KNOW SHE WAS FIRST RUNNER-UP AND PEREZ HILTON RAN TO THE
SAFETY OF HIS BLOG AND CALLED HER A HORRIBLE NAME. IT MADE ME THINK
OF THE LITTLE POEM WHEN I WAS LITTLE:
STICKS AND STONES
MAY HURT MY BONES
BUT YOUR WORDS WILL
NEVER HURT ME
I WOULD NEVER WANT TO HURT ANYONE...I HAVE GAY FRIENDS AND THEY
KNOW HOW I FEEL AND WE RESPECT EACH OTHER'S FEELINGS. BUT YOU SEE
I AM LIKE MISS CALIFORNIA, CARRIE PREJEAN.
IT IS NOT ABOUT BEING POLITICALLY CORRECT BUT BEING
BIBICALLY CORRECT.
SO MANY PEOPLE RIDE THE FENCE...RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE AND WHEN THEY
ARE WITH ONE GROUP THEY AGREE WITH THEM...WHEN THEIR WITH
ANOTHER GROUP THEY AGREE WITH THEM AND WHEN THEY LOOK AT
THE FACE IN THE MIRROR, THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT PERSON BELIEVES,
BECAUSE THERE IS NO ONE THERE TO TELL THEM WHAT IS "POLITICALLY
CORRECT."
IN ONE WAY YOU CAN SAY I AM LIKE PEREZ HILTON......I WON'T
COMPROMISE WHAT I BELIEVE.......BUT I AM NOT GOING TO CALL
HIM VILE NAMES...BECAUSE HE DOESN'T AGREE WITH ME. A TRUE
GENTLEMAN WOULD NEVER TALK ABOUT ANY WOMAN LIKE THAT UNLESS
HE WAS RAISED TO DISRESPECT WOMEN.
I AM VERY SORRY HER ANSWER COST HER THE MISS USA CROWN BUT
SHE HAS AN ETERNAL CROWN THAT IS PRICELESS.
I PRAY IF I AM PUT IN THE POSITION SHE WAS IN, I WILL BE AS BOLD,
AND NOT DISAPPOINT JESUS.
"EARTH DAY!"
PLEASE JOIN THE LOVELY AND TALENTED MISS DIXIE AT
and all the other WORDLESS WEDNESDAY GALS. THEY ARE FULL OF
SURPRISES....AND LOTS OF FUN.
OF HAWAII
"MERMAID TEARS"
WHICH IS PLASTIC PACKAGING THAT LEAKS FROM THE BOATS AND
FREIGHT THAT IS LOST...IT IS BECOMING VERY DEADLY TO THE
MARINE LIFE.
BUT IS ALITTLE BETTER. I HAD TO GIVE HER ANOTHER NEUPOGAN SHOT AND
A NEUMEGA SHOT YESTERDAY. HER WBC'S AND PLATELETS REMAIN VERY
LOW AND ALTHOUGH SHE IS DOING HER BEST TO EAT, SHE IS DOWN TO 88 LBS.
SHE WAS ABLE TO EAT A FREDDIE'S CHEESEBURGER AND VANILLA CUSTARD
LAST NIGHT....I WAS SO VERY HAPPY I COULD HAVE CRIED BECAUSE I SAW ALL
THE SORES IN HER MOUTH.......HER ONLY CONCERN IS SHE IS NOT WELL
ENOUGH TO DRIVE HER FRIEND LEILA TO OKC TODAY FOR HER FIRST
CHEMO TREATMENT.
THERE ARE SOME URGENT PRAYERS.........JOANNA OF MOSS HILLS STUDIO--
HER HUSBAND RON'S BRAIN CANCER HAS RETURNED AND HE NEEDS SURGERY
RIGHT AWAY....IT HAS TO BE APPROVED BUT THE SURGERY IS URGENT.

Well said Debbie!
ReplyDeletePraying for Amy as well as al the others on your list.
I'm so sorry your dd is having to go through all this. I'm glad something sounded good and she was able to eat. Praying for you and your dd to get through this.
ReplyDeleteLove you. Thank you for the prayers. God is GOD and we pray His will in all. Continuing to pray for Amy and Leila. We have a praise report too - Ericca, Jay's daughter, invited us to her high school graduation!! We are so excited. Please pray for us and for all those that will be there to support her - that God reigns and forgiveness and love abound. Thank you.
ReplyDeletePrayers oming your way for Amy girl and for everyone on your list..May you have a blessed day...hugs and smiles Gl♥ria
ReplyDeleteAmy is in my thoughts and prayers. I know the Lord is in control and will see her through this. I will pray for all the others also. Hugs, Marty
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with you 100 percent! Since when is it wrong to give your opinion on something??? I saw Miss California on the Today Show yesterday and she was great! I hope this opens up her career and the Lord blesses her for standing up for what she believes in, and MOST OF THE COUNTRY DOES ALSO!!! Great post!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie! Oh, I am praying for your dear girl. You are so kind to list all of the others, too, so we can include them in our thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteYour Earth Day photos are terrific--love the ones created by children. Happy WW and Earth Day!! Dana
A really good post. I do not need laws to know what God wants me to do but I will not say that wrong is right.
ReplyDeleteHappy Earth Day to You!

Although I don't have a TV, I have followed that Miss USA story. I think it is the most ridiculous thing in the world that Miss California is being attacked for her opinion. One of the best things about our USA is our freedom of speech. How ridiculous that she is ridiculed and punished for her right to free speech and her opinion.
ReplyDeleteHow crazy that that little creature Perez, whoever HE IS, has such "power" over weak minds.
Don't want to get into any arguments or post anything bad on your comments, but truly, I feel these liberals are tending MORE AND MORE to try to "shut up" those who don't agree with them.
I am so sorry Amy's mouth has so many sores in it. Yet she was able to eat a bit, that is willpower. If only the sores will abate and she can eat to gain her strength.
I have to tell you, you and Amy remind me of Betsie Ten Boom, the Netherlands hero in WWII, as she was depicted in the memoir "The Hiding Place." So many burdens of her own, yet always always reaching out to others, concerned with them, and praying and thinking of ways to help them.
The beauty of your hearts comes right through in every post.
Great job. Each picture speaks for itself.
ReplyDelete^j^
Great Earth Day pictures. :)
ReplyDeleteSending prayers for you and your daughter and everyone on your list.....God Bless, Hugs, Jennifer : )
ReplyDeleteI like your post today and the pictures say it all, I never realized that packaging material was leaking out into the oceans, we should all cry for mother earth, she is so violated each and every day by many things, we also should cry for our future children and grandchildren that has to live to see these things. I am praying for Amy and the friends on your list, God bless and keep them in his loving arms. Amy's sore mouth must be so sore, I had tears in my eyes reading what you said about her. Have a Happy Earth Day.
ReplyDeleteI am sooo in agreement. I got into a little thing with a friend of mine who argued that exact point. I finally hushed him by saying that I don't care what his opinion is, I also have mine..period. As for Amy, be assured that I am praying for her. I will mention her name tonight at Mass.
ReplyDeletePrayers were said for Amy and everyone on your list. Beautiful earth day pics!...Christine
ReplyDeleteDebbie, I am so sad thinking about poor Amy's mouth and being unable to eat. I pray you got a good report at the Dr. today, and I pray he can do something to help her get the sores healed, so she can eat.
ReplyDeleteI'm proud of you for standing up for Miss California. He made me so angry! (and yes, I'm sorry to say, I watched the horrible video on his blog). I admire her courage and her honesty. laurie
Debbie, I so agree with you on Miss CA. She is a Beauty Queen both inside and out. Her crown will be in Heaven. I'm so glad she had the strength to hold to her believes while being kind and gentle to others feelings.
ReplyDeleteMy prayers are with you and your DD. May God reach his healing hand of grace down and touch her body and make her well. I will also pray for those on your list and for your DD's friend that she is worried about.
Great Earth Day pictures,
May God Bless you and your family

Sending up prayers for amy and everyone on your list. It is very sad that we Christians are being backed into a corner and told we are intolerant when the fact is that homosexuals are sometimes the most intolerant. We aren't telling them their lifestyle is wrong because we think it's wrong but because Almighty God says it is wrong! God bless you Debbie for this post. "In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion." Romans 1:27
ReplyDeleteNow THAT was a post! I loved your quote......it's not about being politically correct, it's about being biblically correct. Isn't that the truth? :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm sooooooo grateful for your prayer for my daugher.....I will pray for Amy as well. I've been amazed in my short time in the blog world how many Christians there are out there. It's wonderful that we can lift one another up and pray for each other. Isn't God amazing?? :-)
Blessing and thanking you!
Spencer
