Miss USA runner up, Carrie Prejean is speaking out against gay marriage because she got a controversial question and lost the title at the miss USA competition. She is now involved in an ad campaign that speaks out against gay marriage.

"This is not about me. It's about the future of marriage," she said Thursday. "It's about my children and my children's children. It's about me standing up for something I'm extremely passionate about." The ad centers on the hostile reaction to Prejean's answer, asserting that she was "attacked viciously for having the courage to speak up for her truth and her values"

I don't think she is really upset about gay marriage at all. She may have strong feelings against it but I don't think she is a passionate about it as she is appearing. She is just upset that she didn't win Miss USA so now she is going after the people she blames it on. 

She is Miss California, so she should have expected a question about this issue, or at least seen it as a possibility. She is suppose to be representing her state and this is a big issue in California.  

And of course she isn't going to win the Miss USA crown when she answers a question the way she did. There are many ways to answer controversial questions without causing any issue. Politicians do it all the time. That is what the person who wins Miss USA should be able to do. Even though she had a harder question then the other candidates, she should have been able to say what she believed but put a spin on it so she wouldn't cause a problem.  But instead she gave an answer she knew would cause a lot of drama and cause her the crown. She deserves to not win.
