Sarah Palin supports Special Olympics

Sarah Palin read the autocue with her usual competence, while acting like a loving parent. The gist of this heartfelt message was:

"I totally support the Special Olympics, because now I have somebody in my family who can totally benefit from being a part of them."

Does that mean that if there wasn't someone with special needs in her family Sarah Palin wouldn't support the Special Olympics?

Last year she cut the budget for children with special needs in half.

Let's rephrase it then. If Sarah didn't have this handy political prop in her family in the form of Trig, she wouldn't even acknowledge the existence of the Special Olympics...
