IDENTITY POLITICS: “At a press conference addressing Carrie Prejean’s disputed title in the Miss USA competition, pageant owner Donald Trump compared Prejean’s stated views on gay marriage to Obama’s. ‘It’s the same answer that the president of the United States gave,’ Trump said. ‘She gave an honorable answer. She gave an answer from her heart.’ In her own remarks moments later, Prejean echoed Trump’s statement, telling reporters: ‘The president of the United States, the secretary of state, and many Americans agree with me in this belief.'” Wonder why she left out Joe Biden? Oh, right.
