Oh reading this thread makes me so happy. I gritted my teeth throughout that Oprah episode she was on, I wanted to punch her. She seriously got a girl FIRED for suggesting her precious angel was autistic??????? The other one, Holly Robinson-Peete pissed me off two. A Playboy Bunny and a former 90's sitcom actress sitting there like the reigning experts on autism. I can't stand either of them and I'm so pleased to see there is a large group of us who have a problem with Jenny being the posterchild for eradicating autism.
*edit* demoluca have you posted the letter?
http://www.oprah.com/community/community/health/autism?view=discussions is a good place for it. I'm on there, I'll support you 100% |

I bought her book. Very funny.
I didn't know neurotypicals - real people, apparently - could be so stupid!
I'm glad that, thanks to Asperger and the mutation causing such, that I am technically not the same species as her. |

| But Psycho Jimmy, if her son is autistic then she may share the gene with us!!! No wait - according to a nurse I know, they believe autism travels on the male line. It does in my family. So...it came from his dad. So we're not the same species. Thank god. I don't want to be related to a Playboy Bunny. |

Has anyone thought that this McCarthy might be a desendant to the Senator Mccarthy whose baseless accusations of Communism during the early Cold War helped fester the Red Scare?
IF so, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree...
