Is Sarah Palin mildly retarded?

[tikigods 76]

We've looked at the inflammatory claims that the health care bill encourages euthanasia. It doesn't. There's certainly no "death board" that determines the worthiness of individuals to receive care. Conservatives might make a case that Palin is justified in fearing that the current reform could one day morph into such a board.

 

But that's not what Palin said. She said that the Democratic plan will ration care and "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." Palin's statement sounds more like a science fiction movie (Soylent Green, anyone?) than part of an actual bill before Congress. We rate her statement Pants on Fire!

The thing that IS a concern is whether or not "protection" is substantive enough to protect the elderly...

 

Someone like strike, for instance, might see profit in convincing his grandmother to sign away her life so that doctors do not save her if she is in peril. So who protects these people from people like strike?

 

A lawyer? A doctor? Should more than one family member be involved?

Not true. Get the facts.

 

The truth is that the health bill allows Medicare, for the first time, to pay for doctors' appointments for patients to discuss living wills and other end-of-life issues with their physicians. These types of appointments are completely optional, and AARP supports the measure.

Shouldn't the gov't be paying us to do this? Solve the health care crisis, make SS solvent again, boost consumer spending by taking wealth from the miserly Greatest Generation and pass it on to their consumer minded kids and grandkids who think nothing of spending $4 for a cup of coffee? Isn't this a no-brainer? They could call it 'Cash for Curmudgeons' or something.

She's one of those people who are so extraordinarily brilliant they seem stupid. They don't properly use a filter while they express themselves since their mind is too busy operating on a higher plane. The caveat with these people is that they're much more suited for working behind the scenes where they'll be a tremendous asset, versus the liability they become if up front.

ehhhh.

 

I think it's more likely that she's just incredibly stupid but attractive and Average Joe enough to get elected in a place like Alaska and be seen on the surface as a way to steal Hillary voters, women, etc from the Democrats. And that worked for about 2 weeks.

 

 

I detest Obama and Biden, but the thought of this chick one bullet from the Presidency is scary as hell. I voted McCain, but it wasn't without needing a shower afterwards. That's what politics in this country have become, a giant popularity contest based on false promises and canned speeches.

Totally don't believe what I said. Do think in some ways she's intelligent, like how she managed to make the VP debate more of a "say it ain't so, Joe" situation than put herself in a corner (maybe that also says something about Biden). But she's not in a broad enough sense, and where it should be desired most in a representative. She's also kind of a crackpot and her demeanor gives that away.

They support this provision of the bill but not the bill in it's entirety. It's an addition to the Medicare benefit not a reduction. You may want to recheck your quote.

 

Nice spin attempt, though.

And first, some straight talk for some, just some in the media because another right protected for all of us is freedom of the press, and you all have such important jobs reporting facts and informing the electorate, and exerting power to influence. You represent what could and should be a respected honest profession that could and should be the cornerstone of our democracy. Democracy depends on you, and that is why, that’s why our troops are willing to die for you. So, how ’bout in honor of the American soldier, ya quite makin’ things up. ---Sarah Palin

Tragically, it's the stupid shiit like this that most of the mouth-breathers at the 'Town Hall' meetings are so fired up about. There's legitimate issues to be discussed, but instead, these tards are freaking out about the BS that Palin and Limblob types spew forth.

 

I swear to God, like I said months ago, the Republican Party has sadly become "The Party of the Stupid." - Not sure it's going to get any better any time soon either.

Not sure what in this statement you interpret to say that they support any part of the Democrats plan....

Two reasons:

 

1. The Democrats are puzzies and fear a middle aged woman's attack from Facebook.

 

2. Sarah Palin was afraid of death panels because she heard they would put the brain dead to death.

It doesn't. Tiki knows it, but has been handed his arse, so he will ignore this from now on. He will continue calling you names, but he has nothing on the merits to offer.

 

Much like all the rest of his posts.
