DES MOINES, Iowa, Nov. 10 (UPI) -- The federal debt "will be like slavery" for the next generation because it will be indebted to a "foreign master," Republican pundit Sarah Palin said in Iowa.

At the Iowa Faith and Freedom Coalition's fall fundraiser Saturday in Des Moines, Palin said the federal government offers a host of "free" services that must be paid for at some future date to someone, The Des Moines Register reported Sunday.

"Our free stuff today is being paid for by taking money from our children and borrowing from China," Palin told the audience in politically important Iowa. "When that money comes due -- and this isn't racist, but it'll be like slavery when that note is due. We are going to beholden to the foreign master."

She railed against establishment Republicans for abandoning conservative principles, singling out the Affordable Care Act, colloquially known as Obamacare.

"Remember their promise that they would do everything in their power to fight against socialized medicine, against Obamacare?" Palin said. "When it came time to stand and defund it, they waved the white flag of surrender and they threw under the bus the good guys who did stand up and fight."

She also spoke about what she called a censorship of Christian holidays, noting that she had a book on the topic that would be published in a few weeks, the Register reported.

"Enough is enough of this politically correct police out there that is acting to erode our freedom to celebrate and exercise our faith," the ex-Alaska governor and 2008 GOP vice presidential candidate said.

A record turn-out, reports say.

She uses common sense.

I thought she was sooooo 2008. :)

OK Sarah:

There is one way, to cut back on the federal deficit.

Nobody in either party, seems willing to say or do, anything toward that goal.

I’m serious. Both parties are increasing the export of US jobs to China.

If you are serious about doing something to stop ringing up massive amounts of American debt.

Then there is one, and only one, solution:

BRING BACK AMERICAN JOBS.

She not only “get’s it”, “she expresses it.”

Ping to Sarah's Amazing List!

"Our free stuff today is being paid for by taking money from our children and borrowing from China," Palin told the audience in politically important Iowa. "When that money comes due -- and this isn't racist, but it'll be like slavery when that note is due. We are going to beholden to the foreign master."

Wow, I can literally add nothing to Sarah's Quote.

Except maybe this, Sarah also called out the GOP for selling out on Mengelecare.

It should be clear to everyone that the GOP is now the second Progressive Party.

Mrs. Palin had a five step plan to bring back jobs and investment to America. She outlined it 2 years ago. It was, actually received positively by the, I believe, New York Times and then you did not hear anything else about it.

[Cringing Negativism Network]

Well I am all for Sarah Palin.

I have supported everything (basically) she has ever supported. Since before she announced as VP candidate in 2008.

I strongly support her. But nobody is currently advocating for American jobs.

Someone needs to.

Sarah this is an issue whose time has come.

America has been selling out, America for an entire generation.

Please stand up for all of us.

Do not leave it to Democrats.

Sarah I’ve been on your side since the very beginning.

I only ask you please, to stand for us.

Thank you, for standing up for American jobs.

I’ve heard on the news that there are plans to teach children how to read and write Mandarin / Chinese in the school systems. I think I ubdertand why niw. They’re going to need to know how to converse with their Commie overlords in the future.

[mykroar]

Ty for that pic...had not seen it before.

[freerepublicchat]

The brilliant thing about the scheme is that current workers in the economy are paid with this borrowed money, then when they retire, they get off scot-free and stick the next generation with the debt.

[ChildOfThe60s]

The federal debt is a done deal. The Fed thinks it can be inflated away. Not mathematically possible over the long haul.

Repudiation of the debt. It’s going to happen. Guaranteed.

[TheRhinelander]

Uh, this is bullshit. We actually own more of our debt than China does.

[MichaelCorleone]

“and then you did not hear anything else about it.”

That guarantees it was an outstanding plan.

[Jonty30]

That’s why politicians don’t care. They think they can get away with it.

[A_Former_Democrat]

Yet why is this just now being said? How stupid is our side that something this obvious was carried to the yutes of America years ago?

Along with the guilt trips for Moms Dads and Grannies?

[ResponseAbility]

****”Our free stuff today is being paid for by taking money from our children and borrowing from China,”****

Which is exactly what she addresses here. We are in debt to the Fed which our children will pay for, and to China who will come a callin’.

[eyeamok]

The “National Debt” CAN NEVER BE PAID, We cannot pay it down ever, let alone pay it off. To do so would immediately destroy the wealth of everybody, Especially BANKERS AND WALL STREET, simply because ALL Federal Reserve Notes and Credits were LOANED into Existence. There would only be COINAGE in existence, for it is not “Loaned” into existence. Got Change??

Does anyone really think this country is ready for 5 cent loaves of bread and houses under $20,000, or 25 cent a gallon gas.?? That’s where we will be should we PAY THE DEBT, just go back to pre 1965 dollars, that is the RESULT OF PAYING OUR DEBT.

[lurk]

The Left will just call her stupid. It’s their only response.

[lightman]

It should be clear to everyone that the GOP is now the second Progressive Party

More like "Progressive-lite".
