Since the “Family Guy” cheap shot was aimed at one of her children (Trig), Sarah Palin has decided to let her daughter respond to this latest demonstration of Lefty depravity. Here’s Bristol’s response:
When you’re the son or daughter of a public figure, you have to develop thick skin. My siblings and I all have that, but insults directed at our youngest brother hurt too much for us to remain silent. People with special needs face challenges that many of us will never confront, and yet they are some of the kindest and most loving people you’ll ever meet. Their lives are difficult enough as it is, so why would anyone want to make their lives more difficult by mocking them? As a culture, shouldn’t we be more compassionate to innocent people – especially those who are less fortunate? Shouldn’t we be willing to say that some things just are not funny? Are there any limits to what some people will do or say in regards to my little brother or others in the special needs community? If the writers of a particularly pathetic cartoon show thought they were being clever in mocking my brother and my family yesterday, they failed. All they proved is that they’re heartless jerks. - Bristol Palin
When will these pieces of unpleasant people stop their incessant personal attacks on Sarah Palin and her innocent children? Is there no end to their viciousness? Or, borrowing a phrase from a different era, have they no shame?

As you like polls so much, what do you make of this:
‘More than half the nation - 55% - see Sarah Palin unfavorably, and 71% believe the “Going Rogue” author is not qualified to be President, according to an ABC News/Washington Post poll Thursday.’
About the only policy discernible from her tea party personal fund raising ’speech’ was a call for divine intervention, and may God help you David:
‘The lady from Alaska is a phony. She has sold out for money, quitting office so that she could cash in. She asserted her small-town bona fides, her antipathy both to the establishment and the mainstream media — and then got herself a ghostwriter, a booking agent and a (Fox News) network contract. She is rich, famous for the metaphorical 15 minutes Andy Warhol allotted us all and, elbows swinging, is forging her way to oblivion.’
One day you may be able to laugh at this but not before we’ve all had a good laugh at you first!

The “Family Guy” thing, like many of the personal attacks that have been leveled at the Palins, is WAY beyond mean-spirited.
That “progressives” condone this sort of thing is one reason I and many others cannot respect you.

As for the Family Man clip, you’ve misread it - it shows a Down’s person in a positive light and is just a bit of satire on Palin, not disability.

So it’s not OK to pick on them except when you’re insinuating that she’s using them as props–you, sir, are an idiot.

I said apparently - I live in the UK - so is it not true that she takes them around on her engagements?
