But remember it's ok when used in "satire". Just like she said it was ok for Rush Limbaugh to say "retard" after her whole
"r-word" crusade.

I just watched the show, I expected something a lot worse than a single line. She's making a big deal about nothing..
Are the makers of the show a**holes? Well, yeah, we already knew that (which is partly why many people watch it)
Was it a big enough of a deal for her to comment on it? Hell no

I loved the Bugs Bunny reference. If you didn't catch it, you're too young to ride this ride.

My name is Andrea Fay Friedman. I was born with Down syndrome. I played the role of Ellen on the "Extra Large Medium" episode of Family Guy that was broadcast on Valentine's day. Although they gave me red hair on the show, I am really a blonde. I also wore a red wig for my role in " Smudge" but I was a blonde in "Life Goes On". I guess former Governor Palin does not have a sense of humor. I thought the line "I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska" was very funny. I think the word is "sarcasm".


In my family we think laughing is good. My parents raised me to have a sense of humor and to live a normal life. My mother did not carry me around under her arm like a loaf of French bread the way former Governor Palin carries her son Trig around looking for sympathy and votes.
