Every time she writes something, says something the media picks it up, reports it, debates it, gets it out into the public to chew on. Perfect.

The "death panels" are a perfect example for you. She brought them up, stuck her stick in the nest and viola!, no more language in the bill and obama spent days and weeks defending obamacare.

Sorry, you are wrong. Because she metaphorically used "death panels" to describe the committee who will decide who gets what rationed HC - it was controversial, catchy and over the top - perfect, again.

I find it odd, and rather sad, when I see an American cheer on a liar in order to bring down the POTUS.

Pretty bad when Sarah can force Obama to make a move.

Shows me she has the power to control Obama!!

And how is she a liar?

I find it rather sad that Americans still trust Obama after all the mistakes, lied and broken promises.

Like Sanrene why would she want it?

I am sure she has ideas of something or she would not have done this.

So let me get this straight, when Obama used the internet during his campaign you all though he was the greatest thing on earth. But when Sara uses Twitter to get her word out you make fun of her.

Give credit where it is do, she is a smart cookie for using Twitter, to bad Obama failed to be smart enough to use it. If he had this would have been a great idea, but since Sarah did it is not.

Typical double standard left wingers.

You alluded that she quit her "job" to seek other political office; there was talk around Alaska at one point of Lisa M.'s seat being something that Palin would aspire to. Hopefully she understands now that it wouldn't be an election that she could win.



So do you think that she is preparing to run for POTUS in '12?

Personally, I didn't notice Obama on Twitter during the election--was he on it?

She is the one who emphasized the "death panels", which then got the TH steam roller rolling, which then forced obama to respond/defend in a desperate attempt to refute her accusations.

You'll notice the same things seems to be happening with Cheney - every time he criticizes one of obama's disastrous policies, obama and his team go on the defensive - same with Palin.

And we know the media loves these kinds of fights, so her comments and accusations with be at the forefront.
That timeline doesn't sound right to me. I think she jumped on the bandwagon; she was not its driver.

The first mention of a Town Hall meeting that I could find in a google search was July 12, and they really picked up by August 1.

Sarah made her "death panels" comments on August 7.

Neither do I. She certainly isn't much of an object of discussion in Alaska anymore; we're all busy preparing for another tough winter and don't have the luxury of quitting our jobs on a whim and have little use for anyone who does.
