Palin hits back at 'malicious' photo Posted: 10:22 AM ET
From CNN Ticker Producer Alexander Mooney
(CNN) A week after a high-profile uproar with comedian David Letterman over the late-night host's joke about her daughter, Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is again sharply responding to the appearance of her children in the public sphere.
Palin's latest response comes after liberal Alaskan Blogger Linda Kellen Biegel doctored a photograph of the former Republican gPresidential candidate with her 1-year-old son Trig, who suffers from Down Syndrome.
Biegel, who blogs in support of the Alaska Democratic Party under the name "Celtic Diva," superimposed a picture of conservative Alaskan radio host Eddie Burke over Trig's face in an apparent effort to show how close the radio host is with the Alaskan governor.
"Recently we learned of a malicious desecration of a photo of the Governor and baby Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child," Palin spokeswoman Meghan Stapelton said in a statement provided to CNN. "The mere idea of someone doctoring the photo of a special needs baby is appalling."
Stapelton also suggested President Obama should speak out against such behavior from liberal activists.
"Babies and children are off limits," She said. "It is past time to restore decency in politics and real tolerance for all Americans. The Obama Administration sets the moral compass for its party. We ask that special needs children be loved, respected and accepted and that this type of degeneracy be condemned."

(this is the 13 yr old in me) ...
yeah...let em keep it up, I think it hurts them more in the long run.
They’re counting on the Palin’s sinking down to their level to get her off her game anyway.
Something is very wrong when the word “desecration” is misused by the ignorant. No matter how well-meaning...
It's Jabba the Hutt in Drag!
LOL!
A Liberal Fat Cow-face for sure...
It's Jabba the Hutt in Drag!

Precisely! Therefore, my question remains.
Precisely! Therefore, my question remains.
I don’t want to seem out of line here but she looks like a real porker.
She’s an ugly PIG!
Bushwhacking also worked in the old days when the defense; “He needed killing” was accepted by the courts. But alas, that plea is no longer accepted.
My point is; she should choose her battles and not get in to the whole “they-called-me-a-name’ thing. The media will spin every rebuttal she makes into the most damaging light they can.
It will only cheapen her overall image as a woman worthy of higher office.
P.S. I do not want her to be another G.W.
Agreed.Children should be “off-limits”.
She needs to choose her battles wisely.
