I have said continuously that Obamacare is a wealth plundering tool for the medical industrial complex. A way to unlock assets for the corporate/government interests.

One of the pillars of freedom and personal independence is the ownership of private property. The government is trying to take that away, and as in the old soviet union, do away with inheritance, passing down the fruits of ones' labors to their children, to improve their lives.

Title apparently should have read “Medicaid”, not “Medicare” - Medicare is a totally federal program, while Medicaid is a shared state-federal program which is what gives the states the leverage to engage in the practices described in the article.....

Okay. Then she hasn’t run, and she hasn’t been drafted. And the last time she had a job, she quit.

Do you really want to go there?

Yeah, she's such a quitter, never helped all those people get elected like Cruz. YOU on the other hand, have been an amazing force for conservatism....

Breitbart, about three weeks before his death: Those in the GOP who didn't defend Sarah Palin when she was savaged by the media and the democrats were eunuchs. Those that took part in the savaging were nothing better than animals without souls.....

The original post asked why she isn’t in a leadership position. I responded in not so elegant language that she WAS in a leadership position. I was responding to the query.

I don't know what it's going to take to purge this leftist meme from Free Republic once and for all.

Maybe JimRob should put up a vanity post setting the record straight. Maybe he could also lay down the law about posting this disgusting slander on his website. Perhaps that would finally do the trick.

In the meantime, for those who've swallowed this left-wing agitprop, let me recommend Sarah's book, "Going Rogue". In it, she details the entire episode leading up to her decision to resign from office. Any decent conservative who reads that and comes away still believing the "quitter" lie, has got their head on backwards, and should probably join DU.

Not so elegant language? Hell, you outright called her a quitter, repeating the leftist line, helping the left continue to define her.

Breitbart hit the nail on the head perfectly.

So you’ve been here about four years and have NO IDEA why the most stalwart and popular conservative woman in the United States had to leave her position in Alaska? Really?

Oh so we’re playing that game huh? Looking up how long I’ve been here? Checking my creds?

I know exactly why she left. The point is... she resigned. Which is another word for quit. Now I’m asking you, what word would you use for it?

The woman was driven from office by reprobate democrats that tried to ruin her. Had she not left the governorship she goes bankrupt, would you prefer that?

When she stepped down as governor, she said she had a plan to take the fight to the left nationally, and she's done that in spades. She's been one of the few to consistently speak out against Bambi and his minions, she's gotten people like Cruz elected (yes, Ted Cruz credits HER), helped galvanize the conservatives in congress many times, she's a major force to be reckoned with.

And people like you repeat the savagery of the left for what reason? Like I said, you're a perfect example of why Breitbart was so right.

Your born-on date is in your profile, as is mine and everybody else’s, even the site owner’s. I’m not going to justify Governor Palin’s actions to anyone willfully ignorant enough not to have done 10 minutes of research on the subject. We’ve been over and over this, for years, and I tire of it.
