Nah, let&#8217;s let them wallow in their ignorance.<\/p>\n<p>FYI: This year&#8217;s Miss America winner, Caressa Cameron, was asked her views on gay marriage during the the Miss Virginia pageant last year. She said that due to her religious beliefs, her personal opinion was that marriage should be between one man and one woman, but that she opposed laws prohibiting gays from marrying. I wonder if that played into the decision of pageant judge, Rush Limbaugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There may be no better source for comedy than the comments posted on Fox Nation.
