While Carrie Prejean self-destructs, right-wing plays pitiful defense



Despite how the lgbt community feels about Carrie Prejean, we can all agree that her controversy is blowing up into something better than a plotline on "Desperate Housewives."

In addition to the above interview with her ex-boyfriend (via TMZ) in which he accuses her handlers of attempting to convince him to lie regarding that "sex tape" and her disastrous, just unbelievably bad interview with Larry King comes the news that she pulled out of various appearances, including, according to Jillian Bandes of the conservative Town Hall, an appearance at an invitation-only event at the National Republican Club of Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., and numerous other radio segments.

In her column, Bandes doesn't even try to defend Prejean and the title of the piece, Carrie Prejean's Disappearing Book Tour, doesn't even help matters.

It's too soon to say whether or not folks on the right have totally abandoned Prejean, but I'm starting to feel a little sorry for her.

This thing is not going away and with her ex-boyfriend getting involved, the crapstorm will be getting thicker for her.

Please bear in mind that I said I feel a little for her. She really has no one to blame for this but herself.
