How was the female character “made fun of”? Someone else said there was a song by stewie, but nobody else has discussed that as having made fun of the girl.

So far as I can tell, the complaint is that the girl has Down’s. How is “having Down’s” an attack on another person who has Down’s?

Clearly they wanted to draw attention to Sarah Palin and her fight over the word “retarded”. But given that Sarah has publicly and repeatedly said that her child has Down’s, how is simply making the connection that her son has Down’s and “attack” on him?

What did Family Guy do to the girl with Down’s that would be construed as an attack on Down’s Syndrome children? And how does that translate into an attack on Trig?

Are we supposed to honor Trig who has Down’s, or are we supposed to pretend to ignore Trig with Down’s?

The thing you forget and others is that these episodes, according to Rush, are made about a year ahead of when you see them. So this one would have been made around election time, a little later? And we’re talking big, fat, sick, libs here. They just suddenly decide to put in a character who has DS and a mother who was Governor of Alaska? Skewed so that people can ask ‘what was wrong with that?’.

You trust these libs to ‘not’ be taking a dig at Trigg? Do you really?

She was demanding, obnoxious, rude to shy-boy Chris at the restaurant, when he takes her home, she demands he prepare her a sundae (in her kitchen, btw), when he comes back with it, she complains, "Who told you to put chocolate sauce on it??!!" and throws the bowl on the carpet. She was so out-of-bounds it was ridiculous. The Stewie-song stuff is the typical parody junk McFarland does.
