The Search for "Truth" and Beauty

Yesterday morning while reading the Washington Post, I noticed this article: Limbaugh to Be Pageant Judge.

Yes, dear readers, someone has finally found a use for odious blowhard Rush Limbaugh - he will be one of the seven judges of the 2010 Miss America Pageant.

This got me to thinking about what changes we might expect in the Miss America Pageant judging process with Rush Limbaugh as a judge...

1. Only right-handed girls have a chance of winning. Lefties may as well forget it.

2. The first round of competition will involve providing proof of voter registration. Only registered Republicans need apply.

3. The only acceptable colors for evening gowns and swimsuits will be red, white, and blue. All must be used together.

4. Extra points provided in the interview round for denouncing "liberals" in general, with bonus points for excoriating specific "liberal" concepts or individual Democrats.

5. The official Miss America tiara will feature dittoes in its design.

Rush Limbaugh as a Miss America judge. Oh, well...at least the competition is being held in Las Vegas, where all the extra hot air won't be noticed.

Have a good day. More thoughts tomorrow.

P.S. - A bonus quotation from Jean Kerr: "I'm tired of all this nonsense about beauty being only skin-deep. That's deep enough. What do you want, an adorable pancreas?"

Rush is in the news here locally also. He is with a group trying to buy the St. Louis Rams. Some folks are for it since he is from Cape Girardeau (ger-are-doe), a mid sized city in Southeast MO and would keep the team here. Some are against it because of many of the points you made in your post.

That man is seriously frightening...way to take away from Miss America which hasn't been worth a dang since it left Jersey

How can you criticize this man! He has talent on loan from God. Geez.

SusieQ - In this case, God appears to have loaned out the lesser portions of His talent.

The NFL decides who becomes an owner not the other way around.

All this blowhard (Rush Hudson Limbaugh A.KA. Jeff Christie) has to offer is his money and his opinions, (which in my opinion are on the fringes of racism, one mans opinion). There are many more groups biding for the Rams, not just his group. Lets face it there are more men with money (Marshall Faulk) that will gladly fill the slot and the Rams will win or lose depending on how well they work as a team and not on whether or not Rush is an owner.

As for Vick, well he is a player (he has talent not like you, Rush or I, unless you are a NFL player?) and he served his time and the NFL decided we live in the land of second chances, so why not (I personally don’t like it but, oh well). Life has never been fair (NEWS FLASH!)

Now as to the “Free Speech” argument, I guess many of you like myself heard Rush on Thursday “Almost in tears”, priceless. But the last couple of days he now is in his normal ranting and will continue until someone surpasses him, “Free Speech” continues, so what is being stifled, it simply is not true, of course, you may not have a radio, so you might want to get one.
