Miss Universe at Gitmo!

Posted By on Tue, Mar 31, 2009 at 2:32 PM

Dayana Mendoza, AKA Miss Universe, formerly known as Miss Venezuela, visited Guantánamo Bay, along with Miss USA Crystle Stewart, as part of a USO tour, and she's happy to report that everything at the notorious prison camp is "so calm and beautiful." In fact, reading Mendoza's blog about her Gitmo visit might make you want to go there yourself, as her account is full of revealing phrases like "an incredible experience," "visited one of the bars," "memorable," and "a loooot of fun!" Lest you think the two beauty queens were sheltered from the primary reason for Gitmo, Mendoza mentions visiting the detainees camp where she saw where the prisoners shower, and apparently, according to her guides, watch movies, create art, and read books! Sound like fun? Think you'd like to go, too? It's easy: just have yourself sold to U.S. forces in Afghanistan by someone who holds a grudge against you, and the next thing you know, you'll be enjoying that famous "Waterboard" ride, and enjoying all the extracurricular activities that have made Guantanamo a source of American pride.
