Embattled Miss California Carrie Prejean certainly has her share of critics, but rest assured, Alaska Governor Sarah Palin is firmly in her camp.
The 2008 GOP Vice Presidential nominee released a statement last night slamming "the liberal onslaught of malicious attacks" against Prejean, who first ignited controversy for coming out against same-sex marriage at last month's Miss USA pageant.
"I can relate, as a liberal target myself," Sarah Palin said.
"What I find so remarkable is that these politically-motivated attacks fail to show that what Carrie and I believe is also what President Obama and Secretary Clinton believe - marriage is between a man and a woman."
"I applaud Donald Trump for standing with Carrie during this time. And I respect Carrie for standing strong and staying true to herself, and not letting those who disagree with her deny her protection under the nation's First Amendment Rights."
DUMB AND DUMBER: Carrie Prejean has a new, high-profile political backer.
"Our Constitution protects us all - not just those who agree with the far left," the mother of Bristol Palin went on.
Amazingly, the governor of a U.S. state apparently does not realize that:
- She was only a "liberal target" because she was running for Vice President of the United States, and representing the other party.
- The First Amendment has nothing to do with being criticized for speaking one's mind; it simply protects one from being imprisoned for it.
- Prejean nearly lost her crown not for her gay marriage stance, but for violating the terms of her contract with a private organization.
- Prejean did not lose her crown! Rather, she received national acclaim, even becoming a hero to the National Marriage ... whatever it is.
Last week, Prejean's father, Will, told E! Online that Palin personally called him to voice support for his daughter, but didn't reveal any more details.
On Tuesday, Trump announced at a news conference that Prejean will keep her crown despite the release of semi-nude and topless photos that she blamed on the wind ... or Satan ... or liberals, or ... whatever, who the hell cares.
Miss California pageant director Shanna Moakler resigned her position a day later, saying she "no longer believes" in the Miss Universe organization. When Shanna Moakler is your new moral compass, you've got issues, Miss Universe.

"The First Amendment has nothing to do with being criticized for speaking one's mind; it simply protects one from being imprisoned for it."
Actually it also protects against the kind of persecution that CP has had to endure. You three-second attention span libs should really stop trying to act like you know anything just cause the New York Times told you so and go back to your mediocre Follywood bozos.

"The First Amendment has nothing to do with being criticized for speaking one's mind; it simply protects one from being imprisoned for it."
This is 100% accurate. What on earth are you talking about, "Guest?" The Constitution makes illegal to criticize someone for his/her views? Wouldn't criticism also fall under.... the First Amendment!
Go read it. It "expressly prohibits the UNITED STATES CONGRESS from making laws..." that prohibit the freedom of speech, religion, etc. It has NOTHING to do with others taking issue with Prejean.
It's an asinine, ignorant view to somehow say the Constitution protects Carrie, yet does NOT protect those that disagree with her. She spoke her mind; now others are speaking their mind. Isn't that how a free country is supposed to work?

The pics would have never even came into the public eye had she not caused such contraversy with the gay marriage question.
Gays shouldn't be able to get married. Marriage was created by the church. They absolutely should be able to have the exact same rights as a married couple...but it can't be marriage.
Also- Moakler is DISGUSTINGGGGGG
