Carrie Prejean, the Miss California USA contestant who lost the Miss USA crown after saying she was opposed to gay marriage, is filing a lawsuit against the pageant (in California) for “libel, public disclosure of private facts, religious discrimination, intentional infliction of emotional distress, and negligent infliction of emotional distress.” From her lawyers:
We will make the case that her title was taken from her solely because of her support of traditional marriage. [Miss California USA official] Keith Lewis has refused to clear her good name or even to admit any wrongdoing. Therefore, Carrie Prejean is left with no alternative but to take her case to court where she expects to be fully vindicated.

At least she's not suing a big corporation. That would be frivolous.

Good For Her!! It's about time those evildoers get what they deserve. I hope she walks away with the 5M she's suing for!!

If a gay man was made a public disgrace by a straight man..oh man – it would have made National Headlines…there would have been a war…and who knows how many people would have paraded with signs in front of every church in California!!
I pray and hope that justice is served for this brave young woman. She deserves every penny. I also hope the dumb blonde, Shanna Moekler loses everything.

Obviously good conservatives shouldn't be made to fulfill the obligations of their contracts. That's discrimination!

This broad is as phony as her boobs. How long before she gets her own right-wing radio talk show?
