Yes. The cannister episode was hilarious.

Bravo! Hitler was curing Judaism the same way.

[ColdOne]

I used to watch that show back when I was watching TV. I would think the kids got to old?

[Gerish]

Good for her for calling CBS out on this. Typical liberal spin of words.

[lysie]

Yes.They did.

Everyone should read “A Sign for Cain” by Frederick Wertham, in which he details how the Nazis systematically destroyed lives “without value” in the late twenties and the thirties in Germany. They cleaned out the old age homes first, then the institutions for the mentally ill, and then the orphanages. With the kids, they singled out “bed wetters and those with big ears or red hair.” The early modus operandi was to just starve them to death. That took too long, so they got their gas chambers going.

“eliminate Down syndrome through abortion”

Uh, no! Make it sound like an altruistic research project getting rid of a dread disease!

Since when is it genetic, anyway?

[equaviator]

“Iceland is on pace to virtually eliminate Down syndrome through abortion.”

They’re the world’s worst hacks.

Bravo Patricia! Now waiting for the Pope’s response.

Could be, but you’d could also argue that the show has pretty much run its course.
The kids, except for Brick, are pretty much adults, and the show was really about the family relationship with the kids.

It is the one sitcom where the Dad isn’t portrayed as a helpless idiot who the wife and kids continually outsmart. I liked that.

[hsmomx3]

Good for her!!!

[teeman8r]

not eliminating down syndrone, but the sweet young lives that display it.

sad. very sad.

[CatQuilt]

Yes, which is why I no longer contribute to March of Dimes.

[Pajamajan]

Good for her calling out the MSM for pushing leftist agenda with yet more biased distorted “reporting”.

[Phlap]

Nice wrack!
