Family Guy Actress Slams Sarah Palin


Gotta love this clip. Mention is made of the reaction of the actress who played the girl with Downs Syndrome replied to former Alaskan governor Sarah Palin gripping about the comment regarding her son. On the show Family Guy, a line is read basically saying that "My mom is the former governor of Alaska." To which Sarah Palin tried to tear into Family Guy as having gone over the line by attacking her.

The actress (who happens to have Downs Syndrome), replied by saying that in her family they have a sense of humor about this, and apparently Sarah palin doesn't. My family raised me to have a sense of humor and lead 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. Meanwhile Palin just basically ignores Rush Limbaugh's comments (as mentioned in the clip) as satire. Last time I looked, The Family Guy television series was all about satire and humor.
