Really? Your heroine is a beauty queen?

This species is not bred to be smart, or from what I can tell, for any other worthwhile trait.

Right now, there are tens of thousands of remarkable women in Iraq serving in the US Armed Forces. If you need an example of someone to look up to, you might want to consider one of them. A few hundred have died over there in the last several years.

Just because this woman has a platform for display of bigotry doesn't raise her polished teeth and oiled boobs to the level of social scientist, let alone hero.

What makes her a heroine is that she stood against the grain and did not compromise her beliefs in front of millions, even if would have cost her a title. Having integrity is certainly commendable while the "bigotry" and intolerance should be focused on Hilton who resorted to vile name calling.

Amen, Efrain.
