Her looks will fade with time but at least she'll always be stupid. ;)
Just proof that we really do need to create education better.
Didn't she get a mulligan on the Q today? I thought I heard but don't care that much.
I do feel smarter though after having watched the vid. Then cringed.
Really? You guys are concerned with her views on world events?

Not me bro, I have a whole box of saltines.
Not much sport in poking fun at the smarts of beauty pageant contestants.
Just sayin'.

Big brain folks always think they can do better after the fact. [drink]
In all Fairness my answer would be somewhere along the lines of "I don't know what to do about it". I don't think she knew either and she was just trying to come up with some B.S. that sounded good, being put on the spot and all.
Obviously neither one of us are Professional Politicians.
I know a lot of "smart" people that would have choked way worse given the same situation.
BTW, wtf is up with the wraps that they wore in the 5 minutes that I stopped on the channel? What's next, burkas?

Since when did they have all the answers? [cheeky]

Well the thing about politicians is that they usually have an answer. If they don't have one they sidestep the question.
She was picked to win until she opened her mouth.
Because of intelligence, she has had more airtime than the winner.

Somehow I still don't care what she said.... :)

Not to mention a blue-eyed brunette, my Achilles Heel. [drool]
I didn't think anyone could beat Katherine Webb, the Apple of Brent Musburger's eye. She does.
The only thing worse than her being dumber than you.....is her being Smarter than you!
Well she may very well be stupid, but I'll be nice and give her the benefit of the doubt there. She clearly really became overwhelmed with nerves on the spot like that. I have had some serious brain farts with public speaking when the waves of nervousness have all of your Synapses firing in exactly the wrong order... lol

Yep! [thumbsup]
I agree with Johnny5 as well...nerves can kill brain activity. Lots of people have no problem performing in front of people...unless you ask them to speak, and then it all falls apart.

+1
yeap she is hot.
personally the whole "what are your thoughts" part of pageants is stupid to me, some sort of thing they put in so that it can be "said" that "its not all about looks".
yeah right. just make it about looks and be done with it.

Agree. If they want to change perception they probably shouldn't call them "
beauty pageants".
Imagine the other way around: if Jeopardy or spelling bee contestants had to take a moment to prance around in swimsuits, ya know, just to prove they're well-rounded and it's not "all about intelligence".

Hmmm, I actually REALLY like this idea. Methinks you should be working for one of the networks!

That would be awesome!! Force Jeopardy contestants (spelling bee would be creepy) to put on swimsuits and walk back and forth across the stage a couple times. Comedy genius!! [laugh] [laugh] [laugh] [laugh]
Rerun of pageant on E now. Bikinis.
I prefer Miss Iowa
