"Can I vomit right now?"
MSNBC's Contessa Brewer contends that the attention the controversy has received provides a good jumping off point to discuss same-sex marriage.
Shuster disagrees.
DAVID SHUSTER: Can I vomit right now? I mean, literally, can I vomit?
No, you may not literally vomit right now.
SHUSTER: Doesn't this represent everything that is wrong with the superficial nature of these pageants?
...The only jumping off point is jumping off the cliff if you really believe that people at these pageants have anything worthwhile to say to the rest of us. If you really believe that, then that's your jumping off point; and I suggest you jump off the cliff, 'cause this as superficial as you will ever see. It's ridiculous. It's crazy. Look, it's a great sideshow. It's entertaining. It makes a great TV, a great conversation, but let's be clear about what it is and what it's not.
That's a very sweeping generalization for Shuster to make. Why trash everyone who's been involved in a pageant?
Some contestants end up holding political office, such as Republican Governor Sarah Palin of Alaska and Democrat Governor Jennifer Granholm of Michigan.
Allow me to alter Shuster's comments a bit:

Most of Obama's positions on the issues makes me want to puke as well.
David Shuster cannot stomach a woman having an opinion outside of a liberal one. Even if it agree's with the President and Sec-o-states.
MSNBC is unable to sustain viewers let us hope this trend continues.
MSNBC is a ratings disaster, in spite of the White House doing promos for it.
