TYT: Miss USA Leaves A Message For Terrorists



"Miss Universe contestant answers a complicated question with platitudes and clichés.

During the aforementioned beauty pageant Sunday evening, Miss USA Nia Sanchez was asked by boxer Manny Pacquiao what she would say to “global terrorists” if she were given 30 seconds with one.

'I would say, that, you know, as Miss USA, I can only say I’d spread a message of hope and love and peace,' she replied. 'And so I would do my very best to spread that message to them and everyone else in the world.'” *

This type of question is avoided by media. The only idiot I remember answering this question in the belligerent was the son of a former President who was selected for office by the Supreme Court. Who knows what the Wasilla Supreme Master of platitudes and cliches would have said if she got that question?
