Just going to have to call it. fucking owned.

Yeah, I'm agreeing with greed, here.

OK, well, I haven't read all 10 pages, just he first four and the last two.

If Family guy took it too far, then I'm about to take it too far as well I believe.

Did Family guy do Anything Wrong?
No.

Why
Because I believe that Sarah Palin is a fucking idiot. There is no such thing as too far with Family Guy, as has been said earlier on this thread. For fuck's sake, Sarah "I can fucking see goddamn Russia from my House" Palin named her damn son Trig! That is a living punishment. Your name is your punishment. Who the fuck would name their kid after something they can't learn in the first place! I'm glad my dad didn't name me Calculus.

And for those of you who think Family guy took it too far, buzz off. Go hide in your fucking safety shell with the rest of your politically correct BS no fun friends. Eventually, I believe, the politically correct will shrink in numbers, simply because, they will get too PC, lose their minds, and fucking eat eachother.

Family Guy has made fun of everything so far, if she's not going to complain about the the McCain/Palin 08 button on a Nazi soldier in the back in time episode, then don't complain about this.

Thing is, she didn't need to make a song-and-dance about the Nazi soldier scene back then, because she was already on the cover of damn-near everything and on the idiot box 24/7.
Now of course, her star is rapidly fading (thank god) and so needs to jump on any and every bandwagon, no matter how tenuous, to remind us the public (and herself) that she is important enough to be noticed.

People should complain the day Family Guy DOESN'T take it too far.

Family guy has poetic licence to go as far as it wants. No-one buys their messed-up views, just laugh at the exaggerated.

Just watched the Episode.

I think it can be summed up in that little speech that Chris Griffen said.
"You know... I thought you'ld be different, but you're just like everyone else..."

imagine someone getting mad on that lesson... Considering it's Chris, and all the shit he put up with other girls... I thought he was more patient with Ellen than with those other women... so he learns that a woman with Down Syndrome is like everyone else... is that a bad message?

or does Sarah Palin want people to treat those with down syndrome as if they were different?

I remember the commentary about the Jewish episode "Wish upon a Weinstein"... the Rabi's they showed the episode to all said the same thing. the lesson Peter learns is a good one. so they were not offended.

Anybody who misuses the phrase "begs the question" clearly needs a boost in IQ.

Dude, stop being so begs-the-question.

That's pretty nearly everybody, which sounds about right to me. Hardly anyone seems to know what the phrase actually means. ('Cept youse and me, your Holiness. ) (Wait a minit - who misused it?)
