I support Family Guy 100%, and now we can enjoy all the jokes at the expense of Sarah Palin in the many new episodes to come. She just put a bullseye on her head, and unlike David Letterman and other celebrities, Family Guy is not going to back down.

One of the many things wrong wit hthis country is that we’re suppose to be tolerate of everyone’s behavior even when it’s bad or in poor taste. I for one stand behind Sarah Palin and what she believes. We call ourselves a christian country, then turn around and mock God. Do you think God has a sense of humor? I don’t believe so. Unfortunately most everyone will find out what God espects of us after it’s to late. I for one am not tolerant of ignorant behavior and what I read in most posts here is ignorant! If you have something worth saying, then fine but if you’re just going to rant and rave about stuff you don’t even understand, then I feel sorry for you.

I don’t watch Family Guy because it is crude and offensive, but I don’t understand why having a cartoon character with Down Syndrome saying “My mother is the former governor of Alaska” is “a kick in the gut.” Are people not supposed to refer to the fact that she is the former governor? Are people not supposed to acknowledge she has a child with Downs? What’s the problem? Palin is just trying to play the victim.

All of these silly little stories to attempt to turn readers against Sarah. DDN must be afraid of Sarah, but why? Could it be because she is honest, God-fearing, and not afraid to speak the truth? Sarah’s child didn’t do anything to deserve this, and the media is two-faced!

God obviously has a sense of humor or hardcore atheists and religious zealots wouldn’t exist to begin with. I’m pretty sure everyone needs to calm down. It’s these religious and anti-religious fanatics that have ruined this world and doomed us all. So preach and hate all you want, just don’t project your negativity on those of us who would like to enjoy life. On a side note, Fox is garbage, stop watching it. It only makes you appear dumber than you actually are.

So, the Jewish people should have a sense of humor about the Holocaust, African Americans should have a sense of humor about Slavery, the world should have a sense of humor about Genocide, hate, child hunger & abuse, and addicts…. okay, yeah, sure, just like Sarah Palin should have a sense of humor about her child having down syndrome…. I think she’s right & I stand behind her. Family Guy was actually cancelled there for a while, too bad they let it back on the air. I’ll admit, I watch & find SOME things funny, but there are moments when the jokes should not have been said & I can’t believe they are being shown on tv. & This actress; just because you deal with your disability with sense of humor (good for you, though) doesn’t mean everyone else should. Ease up & be compassionate to others, that goes for everyone!

It’s ironic that the talking heads on Fox and conservative talk radio have no problem putting people down, insulting them, or calling them names just becasue they have a different opinion. They’ve helped to create this world we live in where it’s acceptable NOT to respect others who don’t share your opinions

In fact, when I watched this past Sunday’s episode & Chris & his date were at dinner, & she said her mother was the former governor of Alaska, I literally said “Oh, ouch, wow.” In that order. It never ceases to amaze me how others will blatantly pick on someone for no reason other than the fact they are different. I was raised to be respectful of everyone I meet, even if I am disrespected in the process.
