Re: Beck Has No Sympathy for Carrie Prejean

In response to the ongoing Prejean meme today: She may be poorly-spoken, but she's not hypocritical. Most people attacking her for her "sex tape" made at age 17 would (ostensibly) support a 17-year-old's right to get an abortion. They aren't really concerned with what Prejean does or does not believe; they just want a scapegoat for their hatred of conservative values.

Her performance on King, and elsewhere, has been abysmal. We don't have to love her. But we certainly shouldn't hate her. There are enough people doing that already.
