Carrie Prejean Marries Oakland Raiders Quarterback Kyle Boller
Saw it first at TMZ, "Carrie Prejean Got Married ... 'Cause She Can."
But also, US Magazine, "Carrie Prejean Weds." And E! Online, "Carrie Prejean and Footballer Beau Tie the Knot" (via WeSmirch).
I wrote previously about the Prejean scandal at Pajamas Media. See, "Miss California Carrie Prejean’s Odyssey: Not Very Pretty."

Miss Oklahoma Morgan Elizabeth Woolard Supports Arizona SB 1070!
Miss Oklahoma Morgan Elizabeth Woolard lost the crown to Miss Michigan Rima Fakih.
An unhappy crowd booed Miss USA judge Oscar Nunez when he asked Miss Oklahoma Morgan Elizabeth Woolard a question about Arizona’s immigration law on Sunday night’s pageant.
But could Woolard's answer have cost her the crown?
The "The Office" star asked Woolard if she supported Arizona’s right to enforce the law, which requires police to verify a person's immigration status if there's "reasonable suspicion" that the person is in the country illegally.
Woolard said she supports state's rights, adding that she is against illegal immigration, but is also against racial profiling.
"I'm a huge believer in states' rights. I think that's what's so wonderful about America," Woolard said. "So I think it's perfectly fine for Arizona to create that law."
The night's events mirrored last year's pageant, when gossip blogger Perez Hilton asked Miss California Carrie Prejean if she believed in gay marriage. Prejean said she didn't, and a media firestorm ensued, with many arguing that it cost her the Miss USA title.
And that's what's so interesting: Miss Woolard certainly anticipated the possibility of a politically loaded question, and boy did she get one. And without missing a beat she smacked a home run over the stadium walls. My bet is that a year from now Morgan Elizabeth Woolard will be a household name while disaster winner Rima Fakih will be an afterthought.
Also interesting is how leftists are up in arms over the conservative reaction to Miss USA's Muslim affirmative action beauty contestants, but it's no problem when "The Office" star Oscar Nunez launches a torpedo shot at Miss Oklahoma. Nope. Everybody's down with that, just like last year.

Vivid Entertainment, Top Porn Outfit, Makes Play to Release Carrie Prejean Sex Tapes: Plus, Can Former Miss California Still Speak for Conservatives?
The world's largest porn company has obtained a copy of the Carrie Prejean solo sex tape - and TMZ has learned they're desperately trying to release it.
The porn company -- Vivid Entertainment -- tells us they obtained the tape legally, but they want Carrie to sign off on it personally before it goes wide. Good luck with that...
As TMZ first reported, the solo sex tape was played in front of several people during settlement negotiations between Prejean and the Miss USA Pageant just a few weeks ago. Once Prejean saw the tape, she instantly dropped her $1 million demand.
But check AOSHQ, "Eight Carrie Prejean Self-Satisfaction Tapes?":
And I'd add, Carrie Prejean was so extremely demonized, excoriated, and smeared by the hardline leftist gay marriage ayatollahs that she'd practically have to become a flesh-eating chainsaw murderer before most right-wingers would cut her loose. See my earlier report at Pajamas Media, "Miss California Carrie Prejean’s Odyssey: Not Very Pretty."Not really "sex" tapes, per se, but you know.
I don't really find this "hypocritical." I have a problem here, but it's not hypocrisy.
Hypocrisy does not mean "Establishing a standard for yourself and then failing to live up to it." There is a different word for that: It's called being a human being. Or at least a human being who does, in fact, attempt to better herself and set goals and maintain a standard of conduct.Anyone who sets goals for himself will fail. And what is the alternative?
Hypocrisy is, instead, proclaiming a series of values and vindictively using those values to chastise others for failing to live up to them, all the while gleefully violating them yourself.Has Prejean done this? I don't remember a single statement she made about sexual modesty. The only thing I remember her saying about sex at all wasn't even about sex, per se, but about marriage, and that marriage should be between a man and a woman.
A position shared, the left is never willing to concede, by our president, Captain Wonderful. (At least publicly he proclaims this -- in private, he's probably in favor of gay marriage, which the left takes to be "better," somehow, than actually believing in traditional marriage and saying so like Prejean.)
So I don't mind this stuff, really. I do not believe Christians are somehow magically neutered and lack a sex drive. I do not believe that Christians do not have kinks and enjoy sex and even enjoy somewhat forbidden sex. I also do not believe that most Christians attempt to claim otherwise, or scream when others demonstrate similar desires.
Mostly what I see Christians saying is that the culture and our major institutions ought not to overly-glamorize sex out of the covenant of marriage, and especially should not sexualize children, both of which seem to be pretty innocuous statements and do not in fact include any possibility of "hypocrisy" at all.

Carrie Prejean on Sex Tape Video: 'It Was Bad Judgment ... I Take Total Responsibility'
The handsome host noted that the high-powered, celebrity website TMZ claimed to have a sex video of the beautiful Prejean that was so outrageously explicit it hasn't posted it yet. But people can feel free to keep clicking back there every few minutes to check. If they don't mind someday maybe seeing a naked female conservative.Watch the entire video.
Prejean replied -- insert teasing pause here -- yes, there was a tape she had done as a teenager. She made it for a distant boyfriend whom she loved at the time. She said TMZ can call it a "sex tape" if it wants. But she was alone on the video and no one else was in the room.
So everyone (except TMZ, Prejean's mother and the ex-boyfriend, who presumably provided the tape of his beloved) is left to imagine what is on what is no doubt the first such boudoir video ever made in history.
Prejean said it was the "biggest mistake" she'd ever made in her not-yet-lengthy life. She regretted it. She felt mortified talking about it, but it was her own fault. And that as a Christian she'd never claimed to be perfect.
Ms. Prejean is embarrassed to discuss the video at the opening of the segment, but she comes clean. She said she was a teenager and thought her boyfriend was "the one" and wanted to please him: "It was the biggest mistake of my life."
We'll see how this plays out today across the netroots. Ms. Prejean warns that nothing is private. "People are still digging up things from my past."

Too Perfect: Alleged Carrie Prejean Sex Tape Brings Close to Miss California Lawsuit
But, hey, wouldn't a Carrie Prejean sex vid have blown the Erin Andrews voyeur story out of the water? TMZ claims it had a copy of the video months ago, but refused to release it:
The video the lawyer showed Carrie is extremely graphic and has never been released publicly. We know that, because TMZ obtained the video months ago but decided not to post it because it was so racy. Let's just say, Carrie has a promising solo career.Yeah. Right.
There's been too much funny stuff going on throughout this scandal; and such a resolution is just too perfect for Ms. Prejean's enemies.
The New Jersey Star-Ledger is also skeptical, "Report: Carrie Prejean Sex Tape Turned Up During Miss California Lawsuit Negotations."

California Pageant Sues Carrie Prejean Over Breast Implant Money
Deposed beauty queen Carrie Prejean still owes $5,200 for breast implants floated by pageant organizers in January, a new lawsuit claims.Plus, at E! Online, "Miss California Officials to Carrie Prejean: You Owe Us for Those Boobs!" And CNN, "Miss California USA Sued Over Breast Implant Money."
Ex-Miss California Carrie Prejean stiffed pageant organizer K2 Productions even though she requested the surgery "to be more competitive" at the April 2009 Miss USA pageant and verbally agreed to repay the K2 loan, a complaint filed yesterday states.
Prejean was stripped of her crown June 10 for alleged contract violations.
She later sued, accusing pageant officials of targeting her for a pageant answer she gave opposing gay marriage.
"Even before she became notorious for that answer and the ensuing media storm, Ms. Prejean was already causing difficulty," the K2 counter-suit states.
"With her new-found notoriety, an inflated sense of self, and the lure of financial gain available to her, Ms. Prejean turned even further against the Miss California USA organization."
The new suit accuses Prejean of missing events, lying about semi-nude photos, negotiating an unauthorized book deal and using her title without authorization to help promote the National Organization for Marriage's "campaign of intolerance" against gay marriage.
K2 asks for the proceeds from Prejean's planned book, the $5,200 from the breast surgery and other relief.

Congressman Claims Same-Sex Marriage is Push for Socialism: You Think?
From The Hill, "Congressman: Same Sex Marriage Part of Push for Socialism." (Via Memeorandum.)
Well yeah! It's about time someone in power said it!
Here's this from zombietime, "Protest Against Prop. 8 Gay Marriage Ruling: San Francisco, May 26, 2009":
And remember the big International ANSWER protests last November:
Join ANSWER in the Struggle to Overturn Prop. 8!
LGBT Equality Now! Keep the Struggle in the Streets!
-Click Here to Volunteer to Overturn Prop. 8
The California Supreme Court upheld the bigoted Prop 8, denying same-sex couples the same rights granted to heterosexual couples. The decision is an outrage, plain and simple. No tiny, elite body of wealthy men and women should be able to decide the rights of millions of LGBT people, who suffer systematic discrimination. Let's be clear, with Prop. 8, the "people" have not spoken. The rich, right-wing religious institutions and other homophobes have tried to push an entire community back into the closet. Now, the California Supreme Court has joined them. As the politicians and courts capitulate to reaction and sell out the LGBT community, what’s needed is an independent, unified civil rights movement.Despite these temporary setbacks, we can fight back and win! The wave of same-sex marriage victories the country shows that the clock will not be turned back on this struggle. We will soon be victorious in California and everywhere. But we can't do it alone. We need to stand together with all working people--gay and straight; women and men; Black, Latino, Asian, Arab, Native, white and everyone--because the struggle must grow as big and united as possible.
Prop 8 will only be overturned through mass opposition in the streets. The demonstrations today are a step in that direction, but we can’t stop here or wait for another referendum. We must stay in the streets if we are going to win. An injury to the LGBT community is an injury to all!
-Click Here to Volunteer to Overturn Prop. 8
The ANSWER Coalition has played a key role in the fight to overturn Prop. 8. ANSWER organized the largest pro-LGBT protest in L.A. history on Nov. 8, 2008, just days after the bigoted ballot measure passed. It's time to march once again. No matter what the outcome is, we'll march for equality until discrimination and bigotry are defeated in California and throughout the U.S. Help us raise the level struggle for equality in the streets of Southern California. Let’s build a united people’s movement against war, racism, homophobia and sexism. An injury to one is an injury to all!

Notice that this is the "struggle" for gay marriage, in the language of the workers of the world.
But get this: The lefties are up in arms!
At Raw Story, "Iowa Congressman: Same-sex Marriage 'A Purely Socialist Concept'." And at Think Progress, "King: Same-Sex Marriage Is ‘A Purely Socialist Concept’."
And what did Representative King actually say? Well ...
... if there’s a push for a socialist society, a society where the foundations of individual rights and liberties are undermined and everybody is thrown together, living collectively off of one pot of resources earned by everyone. That is, this is one of the goals they have to go to is same-sex marriage because it has to plow through marriage in order to get to their goal. They want public affirmation. They want access to public funds and resources. Eventually all those resources will be pooled because that’s the direction we’re going. And not only is it a radical social idea, it is a purely socialist concept in the final analysis.
Sounds about right to me, and given the overwhelming evidence that socialists and neo-Stalinists are the biggest proponents of gay marriage today, it looks like the outraged netroots hordes "got some 'splaining to do."
Oh, and don't miss teh stupid!! at Daily Kos.
