Did anyone see this show last night? A quote from Julia Louis Dreyfus' character (the Vice President of the US) "The kids had alopecia and the mothers were on crack. It was a freakshow!"
We need to write HBO to tell them that alopecia has NOTHING to do with substance abuse and that we are not "freak shows".
Repulsive!

I left them a comment and told them they owe our web site a huge apology. I have a wonderful sense of humor, but I find nothing funny about aloopecia and told them so. Thanks for posting where we can make comments to HBO.
Thank you Maureen for the email. I sent an email, let's just hope it works.
Since a TV actor was their main speaker at the 2001 conference, I would think so...(Barry Corbin). He even talks about his alopecia on his web site, at the bottom of the page. Maybe he could rally the cause in Hollywood.
I'm in Brisbane, so didn't see the show - but I'M A MOTHER OF A CHILD WITH A.T - AND I'VE NEVER TOUCHED ANY DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Someone needs to educate this muppet!
They have a Facebook page!!
Dag...I agree. But if the character is suppose to shallow then I guess the writers did their job.
This guy gets it.
Very good point. While the comment was shallow, insensitive and ill-informed at best, the comment came from "Selina Meyer" the "HBO character" and not from Julia Louis-Dreyfus personally. We should all take care to focus our outrage toward the network/show and not toward the actor.
