Harry Tells President to Lay Off Las Vegas
"Obama needs to lay off Las Vegas and, as he put it, "stop making it the poster child for where people shouldn't be spending their money." Special Olympics Office Is On White House Speed Dial In a posting on her Facebook page Monday, former GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin called on Obama to fire Emanuel. Palin, whose son Trig suffers from Down syndrome, said Emanuel's language was "heartbreaking" and a "slur on all God's children." That was no "Lady" That Was . . . "Now, wait a minute, I'll stop and you can talk," Specter said. "I'll treat you like a lady. Now act like one." |

I love this part:
"To truly re-energize our economy, we need people to travel to Las Vegas," Reid said. Is this the Carrot Top economic recovery plan? |

As the father of a 7yoS with Down syndrome I appreciated her comments and really don't see the humor in the use of the term. I just can't understand how poking fun of or denigrating a group that (generally) can't or won't speak up for itself is still deemed socially acceptable in some circles. To each their own, I guess.

Didn't mean to offend, just quoting one of my favorite Borat lines.

No sweat. I know most people don't mean to offend. I just feel I owe it to my son to speak up when I see/hear it.

I appreciate the sentiment, Merc. But I think most parents would do the same if it were their kid.

Hey Swamp, a customer of mine told me that she has son with Downs Syndrome and wished she had a support group. I told her to look you up on Facebook. Her name is Becky.
