Rima Fakih of Dearborn, Mich., won the pageant Sunday night after swimsuit...

So...I hear she's a Muslim.

This raises a question;

Will there be a fatwah issued, calling for her execution for baring her body before the world?

6. Shouldn't "gnashing my teeth" more properly have been "gnashing my tooth"?
Just in the interest of accuracy?

17. She's also Muslim and has stated that she thinks last year's Miss California..
"should be more open minded."

Oh, and her father's name is Hussein.

Freepers must be losing their minds.

18. interview question
To really make the right wingers and Jihadists crazy, her question was whether birth control pills should be something insurance companies should have to cover. She answered yes without any hesitating. Runner up Miss Oklahoma gave a Tea Party-esque answer to a question on Arizona's immigration law.

from Miss Oklahoma claiming she lost because of the answer she gave. :eyes: It really wouldn't surprise me.
