Comments on: Miss USA controversy debunked http://www.yalibnan.com/2010/05/26/miss-usa-controversy-debunked/ World News Live from Lebanon Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:26:00 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Abou Daoud http://www.yalibnan.com/2010/05/26/miss-usa-controversy-debunked/#comment-12181 Abou Daoud Fri, 28 May 2010 14:46:53 +0000 http://www.yalibnan.com/?p=9196#comment-12181 Rima: My father always told it like this: We're from Lebanon, Lebanon is our mother. But we look at America as our adoptive mother. And we were never confused on any point because my dad was someone who always had stories and lessons. I think that's also why he sent us to Catholic school, just because he thought Catholic school would help us learn about how to be good, ethical human beings. :End Indeed a reasonable Father :-) Rima: My father always told it like this: We’re from Lebanon, Lebanon is our mother.

What's the big deal, she did something a little crazy, who hasn't. She wasn't a professional pole dancer, she was having fun. I don't think there would be all this controversy if she wasn't Arab American. And yes, we are not all extremists or women wearing veils. Members of my family have fought for the USA in wars and are proud to be Arab Americans. Those that are worked up about an Arab American becoming Ms. USA are hysterical fools who will look for any way to pull her down. I agree with the article.

Tempests in teapots make money, and get exposure. The reason people raised such a furor about this nonissue is the same reason that you felt compelled to pen such a lengthy and pandering article.
