Wha??? That's it?

I'd say O'Reilly has an agenda. Imagine O'Reilly calling out someone else as a "hater"... O'Reilly is a complete jerk.

Whatever. Too much PC-ness going on. It was maybe in poor taste but not hateful or too far.

To hear O'Reilly say that someone has gone too far or who has an agenda? Now that is the pot calling the kettle black. Funny how when the tables are turned on the bullies they are the first to start whinging and crying and making up stories.....like for example, what remark would President Obama had made regarding Special Olympics - that Palin refers to - that she takes umbrage with?

What I find with the O'Reilly, Limbaugh and Beck camps is that they love to make stuff up and funnily enough contradict themselves over and over again and often-times within the framework of the same tirade.

Surely there are folks on the "right" who can see this?

For example, today, Limbaugh was off again ranting about Obama's ears as if Obama's ears are a good enough reason not to vote him back in.

Now that, that is retarded.

Well, I watched that episode, and I didn't see anything negative shown towards special needs people. I did see the jokes directed towards the Palins, and how they expect the world on the silver platter.

"I thought the line ‘I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska’ was very funny,” Friedman said in an e-mail to the paper. “I think the word is ‘sarcasm.’ ”


‘I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska’.

That's funny?

Okey dokey.....

This about sums up the matter imo.

Last night, in a television interview, I saw the gal who voiced the character. She's 30'ish and has Down's Syndrome. She was exceptionally sharp for somebody with this syndrome and she took on Palin directly. Her message - stop using and abusing your grandson Trigg's Down's Syndrome to boost your popularity with voters. Stop holding him up in front of the cameras at rally's and stating that he has Down's Syndrome. She went on to say that her message is one of awareness and ability and that Palin simply continues to use Down's to meet her own needs.
