Palin & Family Guy

The character was obviously drawn partly based on the the actress. Cicero, why do you feel the need to disparage her looks?

You actually believe that the character has a physical resemblance to AHH? Now who is being insulting.

She was part of the conspiracy to "insult" Palin, obviously.

AHH has already admitted the intent was to make fun of Palin.Palin didn't see the humor and thought it was an insult to her family. How many times do we need to go over this for you? There is no more conspriacy involved in this "Family Guy" episode than any other episode. But if the non-confirmed edited portion of the AHH's email was legit, AHH does insult Trigg by referring to him as a loaf of French bread.

They're both obviously blond and a little heavy-set--I'm not insulting anyone.

Wow! She said Palin is treating him like a loaf of bread. Clearly not an insult to Trigg at all. I can't believe you would spin her words so blatantly to the point of completely different meaning. Why are you attacking a woman with down syndrome (dishonestly unless you misread the interview), given your support for Palin's outrage about supposedly "making fun" of down syndrome sufferers?
 
Cicero said:
Now you are making fun of her weight. Come on. Where is your compassion?

Since when is simple observation the equivalent of insulting someone? Making fun of a person involves actually trying to make a joke, or insult, out of an observation.

Face it, Cicero, you aren't going to change the minds of anyone here because you are not being honest.

You can't even quote the alleged AHH quote correctly.

"My mother did not carry me around under her arm like a loaf of French bread the way former Governor Palin carries her son Trig around...."

He didn't quote her, he paraphrased her. His paraphrasing was accurate. Your silly nitpicking is just more dishonesty who isn't fooling anyone (but thanks for the lols).
 
This is one of those threads that someone might read a page or two, assume that's the end, then come back a week later to see it has gone on to page ten and be flabbergasted.

It's fun to watch a poster so thoroughly humiliate himself. :)

I'd respond, but thaiboxerken and Morrigan covered it.

Holy smoke.

Say, now that I have your attention, in this thread (http://www.internationalskeptics.com/forums/showthread.php?t=165887&page=3), you made the claim that I said I didn't know who Howard Zinn was. I challenged you to point out where I said that, and you never replied. Maybe you can do that now, or are you still afraid?

No, what is confusing is that I use posters like you and skeptigirl (among others) as my forum "canaries in a coal mine". Meaning, that if I am unfamiliar with an issue, I can always count on my canaries to post the opposite of what is true. It saves me from having to research every topic. I can know the correct position without time consuming research. So when 2 canaries post opposing opinions, it creates a logical conundrum. Now I have to investigate it myself. If I have the time. And the interest. Which I don't.

If you knew who Zinn was then why would you need to "investigate" his writings? What does "unfamiliar" mean to you? Is there any chance you have opted to inform yourself about Zinn since January 29?

Just out of curiosity, why did you choose that cartoon image of the war deity for your avatar? Does this interpretation hold some special significance to you?
