I don't buy it...I think she is just trying to get news coverage. The good news is I now know there is a different national anthem.

The 12 Million Illegal Aliens in this country also have a different national anthem. I believe it is 'La Cucaracha' :roll:

In order for it to be gay sex you would have to qualify as a man...and the odds of that happening are ZERO!

They also have her tape after she apologized to the mayor saying that she was not sorry and her and her husband had been planning it for a while.

At least now she'll be famous and make a lot of money. :roll:

I think that the state should sue her for not fulfilling her contract.
