I was thinking the same thing. Colorado was never a colony of England. Even the part of Pennsylvania where I was born was not a colony.
Yup. You have the French from the Louisiana purchase. Florida, Texas and the SW were Spain/Mexico. Alaska was purchased from Russia. Hawaii was independent. The Pacific NW and upper Midwest were established by Americans. And Americans kicked out the bloody arrogant Brits.
Carrying on...back to the OP and much of the discussion of this thread. The question is why Palin derides a system that she has willingly used for her or her family members. It's just more of the "Why does Palin say one thing" yet something of a complete opposite nature come to fore regarding her actions? For those who are hel* bent on defending Palin no matter what, ok, we got it, you like the lady so much that you don't care that she's contrary. But for many of us, the fact that a portion of the American populace sees this woman as any type of leader is impetus enough to dissect both her words and actions. Deconstruction if you may.
It's not Palin derangement syndrome, as so many would LOVE to say when ANYONE criticizes Palin. It's an engaged citizen response to public officials and "political celebrities" actions. If you feel personally angered everytime someone criticizes Palin I would say you have a legitmate problem! Palin is not that concerned about you- why are you so quick to defend her???
read the whole thread. we've been over this in excruciating detail.
Well, the thread seems to go on for 10+ pages despite the fact that this has been gone over in excruciating detail. Why does it take so many pages to hash out the details?

the PDS-afflicted aren't the sharpest knives in the drawer. that's the most logical answer i can give ya.
honestly, take the time to read the whole thing. palin was 5-6 years old when all this happened. as far as can be determined, it was her brother who received medical attention in canada. it has not been shown that his parents did not pay. what sarah palin could have done to stop this dastardly deed has yet to be determined.
it has been shown that single-payer health care did not fully reach yukon until 1972 - two or three years after palin's brother was taken by his parents to a health care facility in canada.

It's like breastmilk.
Give the Palin apologists a sniff and they just can't help themselves.

Well, I definitely do take offense to the comment that PDS afflicted arent the sharpest knives in the drawer.
During the time that I lived in AK, I worked at an center that helped abused children. Palin was gov at that time. It's almost impossible to find any statement that family supporting , hockey mom GOV Palin makes about helping the abused in her own state during this time. It's common knowldege among AK dwellers that this was never part of her focus. A hockey mom who preached abstinence and family values but barely has a toe to stand on when it comes to actually family values issues in her own state? Sorry busters. You're so gosh dang Palin happy that you refuse to look at the facts. Your loss.
