Today the Family Research Council's big event of the year is kicking off here in Washington, D.C. The overtly right-wing Christian group chose to kick off their major even on Rosh Hashannah, the Jewish new year and high holy day. It's hard to say if this was accidental (i.e. they don't know anyone who is Jewish and were therefore unaware of such a holiday existing) or intentional.
You can check out FRC's Live Feed of the event here, but one of the major draws this year, Carrie "Miss California" Prejean already spoke. She basically related her version of responding to Perez Hilton's question about gay marraige earlier this year. She said one the question was asked, she did her best to "stand there and look pretty" but says she's "proud" that she gave that answer. She also thinks that saying "no offense" somehow shows that she has respect for gays and lesbians in America. Awesome.
