Ironic? Ironic? More like hypocrisy, isn't it? Okay, so she was a little kid and she couldn't help what her parents did. And is she happy that she and her brother benefitted from another country's health care system but is just fine with other citizens of the U.S. not getting care when they need it?Former Alaska governor Sarah Palin, a fierce opponent of Democratic health-care reform efforts who has said America under President Obama is headed toward socialism, told a Canadian audience her family used to go to Canada to get medical care when she was growing up.
"My first five years of life we spent in Skagway, Alaska, right there by Whitehorse. Believe it or not -- this was in the '60s -- we used to hustle on over the border for health care that we would receive in Whitehorse. I remember my brother, he burned his ankle in some little kid accident thing and my parents had to put him on a train and rush him over to Whitehorse and I think, isn't that kind of ironic now. Zooming over the border, getting health care from Canada," Palin said a speech Saturday night, according to the Calgary Herald.
Yes, I think the word is hypocrisy.
Sheesh.

Honest, the lady is so puffed up she doesn´t ever doubt her righteousness...she´s a great and vivid living example of how NOT to ¨be.¨ Certainly she can´t be a stupid as she looks and sounds?
ReplyDeleteSarah Palin is a person my dad would have said was "injected with a phonograph needle"! She just opens her mouth and everything in her brain falls out, whether it makes sense or not, as long as she has an audience.
