Has anyone called Palin up on using her duaghter's disability? |
|
It seems every time she posts on facebook or does an interview, she brings her up, has it been mentioned in the press?

2. Yes, I believe Howard Stern has. |

Love him or hate him, he calls it like it is.

5. Olbermann just called her out tonight on using Trig when she sees fit |
|
and (according to Levi Johnston, if we can believe him) referring to him as "my (r-word excised) baby."

10. I was being conservative. |
|
The mods don't like use of the word. Sometimes I even excise the n-word when quoting ugly things other people say. Maybe I don't have to, but it comes as second nature.

7. Let me see if I've got this right? |
|
Its far worse for Palin to call Rahm out about using the word retarded as a perjorative------something that has offended me deeply whenever I hear anyone use it due to the fact that I too have a disabled or as Rahm would use it retarded child--------than it is for Rahm to use it as an insult and/or slap at fellow democrats who don't agree with him.
And the fact that the little weasel doesn't have enough character to apologize to Palin or parents of disabled children everywhere for his insult---the fact that Rahm only issues an apology to the CEO (aka national leader/someone on his socio-economic level) of Special Olympics and only apologizes over the phone and in private---the fact that the little weasel doesn't plan to apologize publicly to either the non-wealthy parents of disabled children or the democrats who he used the word to insult is all right?
Is that what you're saying?
Rahm should have been fired an hour after the word "retarded" jumped out of his mouth.

8. Lots of reasons why Rahm |
|
should be gone, but the two you describe really take the cake. He's made his disgust for progressives public and now he attacks innocents in like. This man's ego knows no bounds.
