DangerousRhythm's Journal - So, she claims a Photoshopped image was a factor in her resignation? Seriously?

This is the most BS thing EVER. I am actually quoting this from her announcement, typing it as she speaks:

I think though, much of it, for the kids, had to do with recently seeing their baby brother Trig mocked and ridiculed by some pretty meanspirited adults recently, and by the way, I sure wish folks could ever understand all that we can learn, all of us, from someone like Trig. I know he needs me, but I know that I need him even more.

Wow, you sure the hell do. What a manipulative, bullshit thing for her to say. As she said the "meanspirited adults" thing, the camera moved to poor Piper's face, not looking too happy. Okay, so her kids decided it was best for her to quit her GOVERNORSHIP because some blogger ON THE INTERNET Photoshopped a local Alaskan radio talk show host's head onto Trig's so that it looked like she was holding him, in baby form, instead? And she agreed? Are you fucking serious? As if her kids read political blogs and just happened to run into the picture or something? Yeah, tell us another one.

And what a child can offer to set priorities right. Know that time is precious. The world needs more Trigs, not fewer.

Oh, Sarah, give me a break! Yeah, you need your kid. He's a really convenient excuse for you to paint any opposing voices to yours, online, as inhuman bastards who would mock a special needs child... except, hello, they weren't mocking your kid and you know it. Also, a bit of a bizarre statement: the world needs more severe Down Syndrome sufferers? Not to put down anyone born with Down Syndrome, but what exactly is her reasoning here? It sounds all feelgood and sweet, but could she really picture the REALITY of that statement? Please, get your head out of your ass! The only one making a mockery of your kid is YOU.

Shameless! Absolutely shameless.
