Yes, we’re still waiting for the personal Twitter account, but in the meantime Sarah Palin is making herself heard on the serious issues of the day, and in a way that reinforces her representation of the Reagan Legacy. While I don’t mind getting a dose of common-sense, authentic conservatism from President Reagan on YouTube, it’s nice to hear the same principled conservative commentary from an influential contemporary. Run, Baby, Run!
Sarah Palin’s Notes on Facebook: Statement on the Current Health Care Debate
As more Americans delve into the disturbing details of the nationalized health care plan that the current administration is rushing through Congress, our collective jaw is dropping, and we’re saying not just no, but hell no!
The Democrats promise that a government health care system will reduce the cost of health care, but as the economist Thomas Sowell has pointed out, government health care will not reduce the cost; it will simply refuse to pay the cost. And who will suffer the most when they ration care? The sick, the elderly, and the disabled, of course. The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care. Such a system is downright evil…
We must step up and engage in this most crucial debate. Nationalizing our health care system is a point of no return for government interference in the lives of its citizens. If we go down this path, there will be no turning back…
Politico reports it this way:
Palin calls Dems healthcare plan “evil,” cites threat to Trig
Describing Democratic healthcare plans as “evil,” Sarah Palin is warning that the proposals being debated in Washington could threaten the life of Trig, her Down Syndrome infant boy.
Palin, in her first policy statement since resigning as Alaska governor, wrote on her Facebook page Friday afternoon that the sick, elderly and disabled would suffer should healthcare be rationed, as conservatives claim it will with a public option…With no political organization to speak of, Palin is increasingly sending messages out on Facebook. This is at least the third message she’s posted on the popular social networking site since she announced in July that she would resign.
That one line is especially interesting considering this very day Obama and his gestapos are dealing with a ‘political organization’ that may not be recognized or spoken of by them or the political class. Yet, it’s quite recognizable and has Sarah Palin’s back-it’s called “The Conservative Majority of The American People.”
