Few folks even know of the presidential candidate’s youngest (evil leftists, though, are different). Doesn’t stop Politico (’we’re not that dumb’) from posting this unhinged bullshit.
Trig Palin has divided America
Reactions to Sarah Palin’s decision to resign the governorship of Alaska have been a reminder of her unmatched ability to elicit strong emotions from friend and foe alike. We know some of the reasons why. It’s her evangelical Christianity and her folksy manner. It’s her small-town roots and her “new feminism.”
But there is something more. A year ago, Palin gave birth to her youngest son, Trig, who has Down syndrome. Since then, mother and son have become objects of the left’s unrelenting scorn and the right’s unflinching fidelity.
BOO, the disabled child. I’m ever furious with a fractured tot.
An underexamined reason why Palin is loved and loathed so fiercely is her intimate association with two of our most divisive issues: disability and the right to life.
BOO, I, disability. I am liberal.
YAY, Gary is an unbalanced skunk.
