Quote:
When Marlee Matlin recently appeared on Dancing with the Stars there were some — including the judges — that felt she deserved no reasonable accommodation in the grading of her dancing because “she has to be treated just like everyone else” even though she is profoundly Deaf since birth and cannot hear music.
That sort of mindless cruelty against the disabled — all in the name of a misguided “universal fairness” and a sorry burping of “the spirit of competition” slogan — is disgusting and unnerving, and we all need to support the Oscars and the Marlees of the world who must not only fight against their own disability, but go to war every day against the misguided intentions of a condescending world unfairly set against them.

But they raved about the chaz bonor freak who was only on because of her mother being cher, and that she had a pecker sewn on
and lets not forget, they let a guy compete in a beauty pageant who had a sex change. When you make exceptions for others like that, kind of opens it up for cases like this..
