Prejean's Mom: Carrie's Been 'Persecuted'

The controversy continues for Miss California Carrie Prejean as racy pix continue to be leaked to the net, and now Prejean's mom is speaking out about the scandal surrounding her daughter.
"My daughter is a bright, beautiful, strong woman," Carrie's mother Francine tells MomLogic.com. "She entered a pageant to WIN... she was asked a question and she answered it HONESTLY and from her heart... this is a country that allows freedom of speech. She has every right to exercise it... and she did."
She continued, "She had the courage that evening to face an evil man in front of millions of viewers... and not be afraid to speak what was in her heart! I know God is going to protect her from this evil man and all the others that are trying to attack her for voicing her opinion." The "evil man" she's referred to is blogger Perez Hilton.
In response, Perez tells MomLogic, "Obviously Francine Prejean has been talking with the devil more than she has with God. I don't think I'm evil. She does. We can respectfully disagree... the question I asked was fair and relevant. Carrie Prejean did not answer it as well as she could have. To this day, neither Carrie nor her mother acknowledge the fact that I was not upset with her answer to my question but HOW she answered it. Oh, and I spoke to God again today. She says that Carrie's title as Miss California should be taken away!"
During a press conference today, co-executive directors of the Miss California USA pageant, Keith Lewis and Shanna Moakler, strongly criticized many of Prejean's actions, but said that it is up to Miss USA pageant owner Donald Trump whether Carrie will need to forfeit her crown. That decision will likely come down tomorrow.

Well the eagle’s been flying slow and the flag’s been flying low
And a lot of people are saying that America’s fixing to fall
But speaking just for me and some people from Tennessee
We got a thing or two to tell you all
This lady may have stumbled but she ain’t never fell
And if the GAYS don’t believe that they can all go straight to hell
We’re gonna put her feet back on the path of righteousness
And then God bless America again
And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we’d ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We’re walking real proud and we’re talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again
From the sound up in Long Island out to San Francisco Bay
And ev’ry thing that’s in between them is our home
And we may have done a little bit of fighting amongst ourselves
But you outside people best leave us alone
Cause we’ll all stick together and you can take that to the bank
That’s the cowboys and the hippies and the rebels and the yanks
You just go and lay your head on a Pittsburgh Steeler fan
And I think you’re gonna finally understand
And you never did think that it ever would happen again
In America, did you?
You never did think that we’d ever get together again
Well we damn sure fooled you
We’re walking real proud and we’re talking real loud again in America
You never did think that it ever would happen again
Carrie Prjean has rights too, you gays are trying to take her rights away as an American. There is power in numbers.
