Reply #41: I think you make my point - she's not human so you can use her as the butt of a joke

Ridiculing her and laughing at her pain (you do concede she is miserably unhappy in this picture, don't you?)is OK because the ridiculers are targeting her father, not her. So what is she? Chopped meat? Either you endorse ridculing a child, or it somehow doesn't count what you do to her - like she has no right to be treated with respect.

If someone took a photo of your child, posted it for thousands to see, and "made fun" (Daddy, are we having fun, yet?) of her - would you laugh it off? I repeat, it was despicable for Rush to ridicule Chelsea Clinton, and the same holds true for ridiculing the Santorum child. And adding a clown face adds insult to injury.
