RE: Shitheads Going Nuts Over Miss America

I'm sure that this ambitious young lady is just heartbroken with concern over what a bunch of stuffy dickheads think about her work experience before she won the Miss America pageant.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould

Whoop-de-fucking-do.
I hope she tells them what they can do with themselves.
Was there a peep from these idiots about Miss Nebraska flashing everyone?

So... the Miss America pageant is pointless anyway. I don't see the big deal.
I mean, why do people care about Miss America and the NFL and then ignore ISIS?
Hmmm... well, we know that a pretty girl who interned at Planned Parenthood is MUCH more dangerous than war in the middle east and MUCH more important than, like, whatever shitty legislation Congress is trying to pass while we aren't looking...

They're a genocidal organisation whose ultimate goal is to wipe out the darker skinned humans.
Oh, sorry, I was channelling my shit-insane conservative side.
They provide abortion services - a small part of what they actually do - and the fundies don't like it.

Yup, but of course the Right portrays them as finger-steepling baby murdering evil masterminds. The abortion services make up something like 3% of all PP's activities and funds. The vast majority of their time and money is spent on sex ed, contraception distribution, STD tests (for both sexes), womens' health issues (mammograms, etc), and general awareness campaigns.

This is not conservatism. This is madness.

If she hadn't aborted a future fundamentalist fetus during her tenure at planned parenthood, she doesn't deserve the miss America crown.
