I know. I'm sure we're defined by our weight and when there is a group of people, they're described as the guy in the blue shirt, or the blonde, or the fat guy. I forgot who said it but fat people are the last group you can discriminate against.

Two nights ago I was cruising through radio stations and came across one of those talk radio people, a woman. She referred to Senator Kennedy as "wide load." I was livid. This is a woman who thinks she's sooooo very intelligent. You don't like the guy's politics? Fine by me but that doesn't give her the right to call him names based on his size. It would have been unacceptable for her to make fun of his ethnicity or a physical deformity yet she felt comfortable in referring to him as this again and again. I sent her and her station an email. Haven't received a reply and I don't think I will.
