Is Sarah Palin hoping Trig only makes it to 20?

From Hoohah's Fecebook page

Enjoy this beautiful greeting from father to son.

I read it again yesterday while waiting for Trig to awaken after eye surgery. So groggy from deep sleep at the hands of a skilled anesthesiologist, our son's surgeon also waited and reassured. And he told me the most fascinating thing about the eyes of a child with Down syndrome. "Compare his eyes to a 'normal' child's. Get a magnifying glass. Look deep. Their eyes are captivating inside! They're different, they're colorful, they sparkle. Surely God made these eyes to reflect what heaven must be."

If only we all could see into and through the eyes of the innocent! They're God's sons and daughters who may not meet man's standards of perfection but will certainly meet His. Their enduring childlike faith and their patience with the rest of us can teach us what is important. Maybe if we look with those eyes, what a wonderful world we will see.

So many things wrong with this.

The average lifespan for a Down Syndrome person is between 55-60.  Not 40. and certainly not 20.  But the way Sarah has treated Trig, he may only make it to 20, which is probably what she really wants as she cannot stand the boy and is no longer of any use to her.

I am sure George Will, as much as I disagree with him, is a loving father who saw to it that Jon got therapy and good care so he could have a normal life, which is something Hoohah hasn't done with Trig.

Even though I have a belief in God, he doesn't not magically point at something and poof makes it better.  When I was growing up my grandma got this cross-stitch picture for Mother's Day  that said "God can't be everywhere so he invented mothers", she hung it in her kitchen.   Same thing here, God created doctors and therapists to take care of us here on earth.  If you disagree with me on that that's OK, but that is my take on it.  God put people on earth to do his work.

And for a little snark, look at the picture of Jon with Dumbya.  Even with Down Syndrome I am sure Jon is much more intelligent than Dumbya.  Sorry but I had to say it.
