    He mentioned the special olympics on it's skill level? Are you for real?

    How would this be funny if he wasn't trying to take the piss out of special olympians?

    Like I said already, I'm not offended, and don't really give a fuck what the man says, but come on.

    What about the time Bush clowned the blind guy for wearing sun glasses on a cloudy day? THAT was worse, IMO.

    I'm kind of disappointed though. Not because of what he said. Just that he said it. I thought he was atleast smarter than Dubya. Guess he just talks better.

    “He expressed his disappointment and he apologized, in a way that was very moving,” Shriver said on ABC's “Good Morning America.” “It’s important to see that words hurt, and words do matter. And these words that in some respect can be seen as humiliating or a put-down of people with special needs do cause pain, and they do result in stereotypes."

    I agree. I hate it whenever any celebrity says something that offends someone and then they go through with a show to make everyone happy.

    i'm sure some special olympians can get a better score bowling than that

    he should have been more direct and picked out a certain disorder or something

    my dad is in a wheelchair and bowls better than that....


    I dunno, I'm not offended by the comment, it suggests things that are less than perfect about his character, but, we're all flawed, and to give someone shit for not being perfect is....

    well, kinda like the special olympics.
