Leave it to the Left to lose it over a perfectly benign and true statement by RFK, Jr. 

Let's take pious Elizabeth Warren who wouldn't know the truth if it smacked it in her high cheek bones. She is just so offended by Kennedy's statement and in her estimation, he should resign. Resign for telling the truth? How odd. 

Apparently, the Left is taking crazy pills and not sharing with the group. Also, for the sake of conversation, let's pretend Kennedy did lie about autism. If lying is cause for immediate resignation, old Liz should be tendering hers as well because she lied about her whole lineage. 

People pretending it does not are being intellectually dishonest. 

They are aware. They just don't like Kennedy so the play dumb.

There are many families dealing with members with autism who will never be able to live alone, manage their own finances, or generally live what we consider 'normal lives'.

This is an excellent question and get to the heart of this matter.

At the end of the day, the goal should be improving outcomes for all people with autism. That is what RFK, Jr. is attempting to do and the bad faith arguments against that are truly baffling.
