DONALD TRUMP, SUCCUMBS AT LAST?
The pressure from the gay, bisexual, lesbian and transgender/transvestites was simply too much for The Donald to continue to starve off and he decided to cut down on his losses. The sacrificial lamb, Miss California USA Carrie Prejean! Today she has become history, a victim of the hot-button holy grail issue which brought about the infamous don't ask don't tell policy of the United States military? She was simply stated, FIRED by The Donald? Icheoku says, no matter the subterfuge used to try to explain away this sudden development; why Prejean was let go, the underlying current was her ill-thought out answer to a gay marriage question. We saw it coming but why it even took this long to materialize was the surprising aspect of the whole story. May be Perez Hilton was right, "Better late than never"! What a hypocrite, this lady is after-all, a christian who would strut, barely-clad, on runways and who would pose semi-nude and in topless photos, on a beach but now refuses to understand that love sometimes is not gender-specific? Carrie Prejean must be a selective christian? According to the story making rounds, Carrie Prejean was dethroned as Miss California USA for "contract violations," including missing scheduled pageant events? Icheoku says, tell that to the marines as unfounded and a bare-naked lies. Donald Trump just told her, 'You are Fired'! It will be recalled that Miss Prejean, 22, retained her title last May despite trailing controversies over topless photos, missed appearances and her statements that she is against against same-sex marriage? Prejean had stepped into controversy at the Miss USA pageant in April when she declared her opposition to same-sex marriage in a response to a question asked during the national pageant by Perez Hilton, a pageant judge. Prejean subsequently finished as first runner-up and admitted as much in a radio interview that it was that controversy that led to her losing her title, not contract issues. Icheoku asks, but what happened to her freedom of expression? Former runner-up Tami Farrell has now been elevated as the new Miss California USA, 2009! What a power play between a very powerful bloc and a business mogul, Donald Trump (The Donald) whose religion is money; and who could not afford a boycott of all things Donald, by the gay and lesbian community, hence a lesser disposable had to yield way and so went Carrie Prejean into oblivion as a "fired" former Miss California USA?

LOS ANGELES – Former Miss California USA Carrie Prejean says she lost her crown because of a comment she made about gay marriage and not because she had been skipping appearances.
Prejean told Matt Lauer on NBC'S "Today" show Friday that she "absolutely" had been dethroned because of the comment, when she said marriage should be between a man and a woman.
Prejean lost her title Wednesday after California pageant executive director Keith Lewis said Prejean was skipping Miss California USA events while speaking out against gay marriage at unsanctioned appearances.
Lewis said Friday that the pageant would never try to silence its contestants. He says they should be able to voice their opinions as long as they don't violate their contracts.
Prejean was replaced by the Miss California pageant's first runner-up, Miss Malibu Tami Farrell. Farrell has also said she believes marriage should be between a man and a woman.
