My name is Andrea Fay Friedman. I was born with Down syndrome. I played the role of Ellen on the "Extra Large Medium" episode of Family Guy that was broadcast on Valentine's day. Although they gave me red hair on the show, I am really a blonde. I also wore a red wig for my role in " Smudge" but I was a blonde in "Life Goes On". I guess former Governor Palin does not have a sense of humor. I thought the line "I am the daughter of the former governor of Alaska" was very funny. I think the word is "sarcasm".
In my family we think laughing is good. My parents raised me to have a sense of humor and to live a normal life. 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 looking for sympathy and votes.

Great response from Ms. Friedman. Sarah Palin does seem to use her son Trig as a tool for sympathy and votes.

Kewl. I can't wait until Trig is old enough to give Sarah Palin a piece of his mind about the child abuse inflicted upon him by being named Trig.

I don't think she will have the courage to respond. She will just 'move along' as though Ms. Friedman didn't say anything negative about her.

I thought the line "I'm the daughter of the former governor of Alaska" was really funny too and not offensive. However there was another line that I thought was offensive. When Stewie is doing the musical number with Chris and he calls "Ellen" a "little whore" that's the line Sarah Palin should be upset about.
