Wow, never seen that one coming

Well I can honestly say I did not see that one coming. Yesterday the state officials punted Miss Prejeans fate up to Donald Trump, owner of the Miss America pageant and effectively Miss Prejeans boss.
In my opinion Donald Trump would have punted it to a focus group and come out with a result that would have pleased no one, and yet could be spun for the desired party or parties.
So what happened, he actually backed her to the hilt and approved of what she said, based on her feelings about the matter, now that may have sounded wishy washy and given a few more days to let the old dust settle, I may reappraise what my opinion is.
The twitter traffic is of course being prolific on the matter, yet a consensus has yet to be agreed upon, and the head witch hunter, one Perez Hilton fresh off providing more documentation on stunning American Women doing risqué photography shoots, has yet to weigh in on the Donalds decision.
Perhaps the focus on Miss Prejeans life can now be directed elseware, and let the woman get on with her life and career. In probability, this is most likely minute fourteen of Perez Hiltons fifteen minutes and if he wants to accend to the next level, the attacks on Miss Prejean have to come to an end, less he finds himself under seige for being a bitter loser, his own life can be just as effectively disected under the media glare, and being he was the first to throw stones to borrow a biblical saying, I doubt many people would show any kind of compassion.
For Donald Trump, you surprised me regarding your decision, good, I like those kind of surprises and I am sorry to have prejudged your response and an unintended slight on your character.
