Good luck in your future career at the city paper, kiddo. Your "report" is laughably ethnocentric.

If you just want beauty without the brain in this kind of pageant, then why even ask this dead brain girls questions at all? Just let them parade their bare naked body to the entire world.

I guess nobody else to blame but ourselves to let Bush spend all those tax money to fund his personal war with Iraq but not to improve our country's educational system.
