Sarah Palin Defends Carrie Prejean Nude Photos: Months after disappearing from the national stage, former vice presidential candidate, Sarah Palin returns to the spotlight.
The Governor of Alaska, a former beauty queen, has come to the defense of Miss California Carrie Prejean and her recent Nude Photos scandal and gay-marriage controversy. 
"The liberal onslaught of malicious attacks against (Miss California) Carrie Prejean for expressing her opinion is despicable," Palin said in a statement.
Gov. Palin said that her and Prejean spoke right after Miss California expressed her honest opinion regarding same-sex marriages during the Miss USA pageant.
At that point, the circus began thanks to gay-activist and celebrity blogger Perez Hilton and his now infamous YouTube tantrum-video.
"What I find so remarkable is that these politically-motivated attacks fail to show that what Carrie and I believe is also what President Obama and Secretary Clinton believe — marriage is between a man and a woman," Palin added. "Our Constitution protects us all — not just those who agree with the far left."
Prejean has been featured in ads and has gained plenty of support for her stance from conservative groups like Focus on the Family and National Organization for Marriage.
Gov. Palin is also attempting to maintain a national profile. This week, Palin announced that she is woking on her memoir, saying that she wants to be "able to tell (her) story unrestrained and unfiltered."
