- jd33, on 10/10/2007, -3/+159Give the girl a break. She's absolutely right about the Iraq and places such as. If Americans are ever going to locate their country on a map, they need to educate South Africa. For our children.
- nixonrichard, on 10/10/2007, -1/+68She should have stuck with: "I would like to answer this question by fellating the microphone"
- abid786, on 10/10/2007, -6/+45* US Americans. You must distinguish them from other kinds of Americans.
- chancesarent, on 10/10/2007, -1/+31She would be considered mentally retarded if she was ugly. Those are the rules, you know.
- MikeyisaFag, on 10/10/2007, -2/+29Next stop, political office!
Last I checked, the Bush Administration has had a few openings as of late. :) - sagien, on 10/10/2007, -0/+22Do you need a map?
- mogden, on 10/10/2007, -4/+25i'd put my penis in HER vagina!
- joegibes, on 10/10/2007, -4/+22...she's an idiot.
- gregsmamma, on 10/10/2007, -8/+26every joke about this has been made, let's move on, for comedy's sake.
- arevolutionof1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+15She's dumb as a bag of hammers.
- chiefbandit2200, on 10/10/2007, -2/+17she's definitely not articulate... or bright...
and i bet that guy wouldn't be defending her if she was ugly... - chancesarent, on 10/10/2007, -1/+15Did you know she recently graduated from HS with a 3.5 GPA? I weep for the U.S. American childrens' futures and such as........oh, and South Africa and the Iraq.
- Frnnkdlxx, on 10/10/2007, -2/+16Don't make fun of her! She's.. special..
... And by special I mean she can do things with her tongue that would make Barney turn green. - foodude, on 10/10/2007, -0/+14And if you had one.. would you be able to locate it?
- HotGore, on 10/10/2007, -1/+14Ya she has done way more then me. She completely failed at life.
- chiefbandit2200, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13Yeah, but if you saw her "do-over" on the Today Show you would know that she really is that dumb, and it wasn't just a misstake...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14Yes, there are places such as Canada and Mexico. The US is different from such as, as anyone who looks at the map, if he has one, and who can find the US on it, can see.
- Kamill85, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11http://thedailyreel.com/spotlight/tv/archive/2007/08/28/miss-south-carolina-responds
- revarien, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Oh no... I can't find the United States on that map!
- renjipanicker, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11Pagent instructions: "When asked a question on any topic, project your personal beliefs passionately, and inflect the word 'believe' correctly. Describe its relevance to the underprivileged, for example those in South Africa. Throw in a reference to Iraq and what a great job the US is doing there. Avoid teen talk such as 'like', and use 'such as' instead. Smile always, look confident"
Full marks on all counts. - Ummagumma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10I think the whole speech was code for the evildoers. I swear she said "Osama" at one point.
- ArchonSG, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10IF you thought her original answer was bad, wait till you see the one she gave on the morning show. Even with the obvious practiced, teleprompter read response she didn't even answer the original question which was "Why do you think 20% of Americans can't find the US on a World map?" Instead she gives a lame arsed excuse then go on to say that they should be taught geography. Right.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fQKNvPn3V-8 Today's show 2nd chance *still dumb* response.
For once, I think she deserved the title ..."CONFIRMED!" - arevolutionof1, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10She's 18. Old enough to vote. That is if she doesn't need a map to the US American voting booth.
- MOJIRA, on 05/17/2008, -0/+10I'm not ready to move on yet. This is a good place to be.
- GoingPostal, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10She has a future as a spokes person for the Republican Party.
- WoollyMittens, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9I can't watch the video. It's like scratching a blackboard with your nails. Geez.
- GoingPostal, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9This is why it is called a 'Beauty Pageant' and not a 'Brain Pageant.
- X111, on 10/10/2007, -1/+10Come on, her comeback is just as stupid, only rehearsed and she still manages to mess it up. "Yes, I certainly can find the US on OUR map"
No ***** Sherlock, here's a map of the US, where is the US? Good girl. - badassninja, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9I.. had some how missed this video, so here is a you tube link:

I almost feel bad for this lady.... but man she messed up and .. well.. it is funny. (: - MOJIRA, on 05/17/2008, -1/+9When she started out saying US Americans, it sounded weird, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt because there are North, Central, and South Americans and several countries in each region. Of course after that it just... fell apart, like, such as.
@ zacharytelschow: You know, I heard the Brazilians call themselves "Americans" too. - nihilite, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8maybe we're not understanding you. Do you think you're going to get laid if you defend her? cuz i can promise you, you won't.
- Ramble, on 10/10/2007, -0/+8Not without educating asians and South Africa.
- protogenxl, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7I hope Miss South Carolina learned a very valuable lesson.
Never piss off the operator of the Teleprompter. - ChileanGoD, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Google "Sudamerica" and "sudamericano". In spanish we made it one word. Oh.. in south america is not spanish. We call it "Castellano". I'm still trying to figure where are the big diffrences.
- uselessexpert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6ALL I CAN DO IS CRINGE! I can't even listen to her...AAAARGGGHHH! Wow, the future of our country. How inspiring...(sarcasm)
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6A 3.5 GPA isn't what it used to be. I think you get that for being physically present during most of the school day.
- BossKey, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6For the next 12 years or so, anyway.
- Ramble, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5A tube map is a map of an underground subway, usually the London underground, they're famous for being hard to understand.
http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/colourmap.gif - WoollyMittens, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Not special as riding the short bus to school?
- elvenseven, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5This girl should be crowned the miss teen Meme. "TEH Iraq".
- doctorfungi, on 10/10/2007, -5/+9Every unoriginal sexual joke regarding tubes has already been made, we don't need any more thanks.
- chancesarent, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Geese? Is that this season's "sheeple"? I hope so, because geese rock-ass in the waterfowl world.
- uberfu, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4MANICALLDAY - SHE'S NOT A KID_ She's 18 years old_ That makes here a legal adult in most industrial countries - YES including the USA_ Most of us here were probably smarter than that when we were 10 years old_
That's right up there with last week when every one was feeling sorry for that idiot "child" [who was 18 years old] that got hit by a train while he was text messaging someone_
Oh and PLEASE - Elaborate on exactly WHAT she has accomplished !! You really should back those kinds of statements up before you make sweeping generalizations_ - willwgm3, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4And what the hell is "When will people are"?
- elvenseven, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Oh come on. The Iraq + South Africa = US America sound like stage fright?
- UtopiaInTheSky, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I'm digging you up because you accidentally said "geese".
- mishabear, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Unfortunately her logic is much like that in the White House. In order to stop terrorism, we have to invade Iraq. HUH? If we want to stop terrorism here, we have to force democracy on others. HUH? We have to fight them there so we don't have to fight them here. HUH? We eliminated your Constitutional rights in order for you to keep your Constitutional rights. HUH? No wonder American kids are so confused.
- MOJIRA, on 05/17/2008, -2/+5Double post. Bury.
- Punisher2K, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Gotta cut corners somewhere when you have a War on Terror(tm) to fight.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2My response might be "Yeah, and 20% of people still think George Bush is doing a good job. Some people just can't be helped. Besides, not everyone can be a doctor or an astronaut when they grow up. Astronauts and doctors still need people to scrub their toilets."
