"The poll found 33 percent favor marriage for same-sex couples, down somewhat from a high of 42 percent in April…" http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/06/17/politics/politicalhotsheet/entry5094597.shtml
Dr. Morse says: This is not a small change: this is a complete collapse of support for same sex marriage! But the reporter has no desire to look behind the numbers and account for them. Could it be that people are starting to think through what redefining marriage will actually mean? Could it be that people are disgusted with the strongarm tactics of the gay lobby, in their treatment of people like Carrie Prejean? Could it be that people find the Iowa Supreme Court’s ruling to be revolting? I don’t know. But at least, I’m asking, which is more than the Main Stream Media is doing.

Former Miss Calif: Homosexual comment cost me my crown
Associated Press -
LOS ANGELES, CA - Former Miss California USA Carrie Prejean says she lost her crown because of a comment she made about homosexual "marriage" -- 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.

Why Carrie Prejean was stripped of Miss California title
Elijah Friedeman, the Millennial Perspective
...Prejean countered the accusation saying that the producers of Miss California USA had wanted her to pose semi-nude for Playboy for $140,000 and to star on the reality show "I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" but she had declined both offers.
Even though Carrie Prejean has lost her title, she is not without supporters and fans. If she had merely played according to everyone's rules and won the Miss USA title, no one would know her name. Noe she is something of a celebrity among conservatives. It will be interesting to see what Prejean does in the future. She has expressed interest in writing a book, which she is now able to do since she no longer is in a contract with Miss California USA.

NATIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR MARRIAGE
Maggie Gallagher, President of the National Organization for Marriage, released the following statement regarding Carrie Prejean:
“Because Carrie honestly said what she believed in answer to a question--marriage is the union of a man and a woman-- she is now the subject of ongoing character assassination. The level of hatred directed at her is astonishing. Even more astonishing is her personal courage and strength of character in the midst of these attacks. Of course Carrie is not perfect. On a personal note, as a former unwed mother, I want to say to Americans: you don’t have to be a perfect person to have the right to stand up for marriage. Nothing gay marriage advocates can do can change the fact—we all saw it on national TV—that Carrie is a young woman who surrendered all the glitter Hollywood has to offer, because she would not become the kind of person afraid to say the truth.
"Through Carrie, we are also learning, the lengths some people will go to hurt and harass those who speak up for marriage.”
