I thought she had said it was okay to mock retards if it was satire, like Limbaugh did. Shirley she understands that The Family Guy is more satirical than Limbaugh. And he is doing it on Fox, her own employer. Governor, when you eat at the trough with pigs, you’re a pig. And is it really proper to insist that people call you Governor when you resigned in disgrace. Should we call Rod Blogoivich (sp) Governor? ---

Should we call Rod Blogoivich (sp) Governor? You don’t understand. The Righties think that her resignation was the smart and honorable thing for her to do- after all, the Left was hounding her so much that she couldn’t get her job done and it was costing Alaska too much to defend her… so she quit for completely selfless reasons. No, really. ---

Palin needs to do a porn film and just get it over with already. Its not like that would hurt her chances at becoming POTUS at this point. ---

> [@joebuck20](#): > > I wonder if this will be covered on Fox News tonight, and if so what sort of spin they’ll take toward their Newscorp sister company. They won’t say a damn thing about it because Family Guy is their golden goose now. In two years, Sarah Palin will either be on the losing end of a Presidential bid or she won’t run and will be irrevelant. Family Guy will still be making Rupert Murdoch big scratch. If Palin demanded Family Guy be taken off the air they’d boot her so fast she’d become retarded. ---

I’d like to go on record: if Sarah Palin does a porn flick, I will cast my vote for her for president in 2012 … regardless of whether she’s running or not. Take that as either a profound skepticism or a sincere wish … your choice. ---

But retards are funny. Just think, when Palin finally makes it to the Whitehouse, it’ll be the total party pad. It’s like having a pet dwarf, or a trained monkey! When Trig gets a little older he can like be on Jackass and stuff. She’s just shooting herself in the face, I mean foot, to poopoo the street cred that having a retard baby will bring her with her crowd. It’s like a blue-collar comedy law: retards and monkeys are always funny! And Mexicans, when they ride around in circles on a tiny tricycle wearing a great big sombrero. ---

I’m still not convinced that ole Rupert didn’t start the idea. “Hey Sarah. This is Rupert. Listen, The Family Guy’s been slumping a bit, so here’s the deal. We’re going to do an episode about you. You get all outraged and scream about it, okay? It’ll make you points with your base and all the damn liberal retards will start watching in case we do it again. Win, win, right? You betcha!” ---

Well, she did bring up the “Family Guy” episode on O’Reilly last night: > **[Sarah Palin Responds To "Family Guy" And Repeats Call For Rahm Emanuel To Resign](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/sarah-palin-responds-to-f_n_464939)** > > Sarah Palin Responds To "Family Guy" And Repeats Call For Rahm Emanuel To Resign Still, she reiterated that she was giving Limbaugh a pass because he was using “retard” in a satirical context. So by that reasoning, shouldn’t “Family Guy” be in the clear? ---

Family Guy is a cartoon. Humor is what they do. In that context, it has a pass far more then Rush. She is manufacturing outrage to keep her face in public. She wants to stay in the news. She quit as governor of Alaska. ---
