Death penalty kills criminals. Abortion kills innocent babies.
Again, I don't agree, but that's the logic used most of the time. #sarahpalin

plus, you know, they're kind of big on the whole anti-poverty advocacy thing, so they do actually care about people, etc. (i don't think soup kitchens are run exclusively by pro-choicers, do you?) #sarahpalin

Sooner enough, she'll fall in and will only be taken seriously by the people who find "Coast to Coast AM" too mainstream. #sarahpalin

As far as I can tell, Palin's "audience" at this point is comprised entirely of members of the Montana militia, Westboro Baptist Church congregants, and conspiracy theorists who find World Net Daily too left-leaning.

She needs to STFU already about "rationing care" and "death panels." Fuck you, lady. You think our health care isn't rationed already? Only in the US would a political party protect an industry that sits around pondering whether to make gender a pre-existing condition under which health care can be denied. Where a victim of domestic violence can be denied health care because she is too high-risk. Where the failure to disclose treatment of a teenage case of acne can cause the termination of a health insurance policy you have paid for faithfully for years under the assumption that if you get cancer, you'd get treatment.
Fuck this fucking country, where Republicans "leaders" can grab whatever microphone is in front of them and yammer on with lies about pulling the plug on your grandma and women traipsing off to get three abortions on their lunch hour and how we have the best health care system in the world.
Fuck you, Sarah Palin, and the horse you rode in on. I hope you get hemmorhoids and end up being denied treatment because you were once pregnant and that's a pre-existing condition. Karma can't come soon enough to suit me. #sarahpalin

I don't think I could love you any more right now, but if you feel like it, I'm really in the mood for a cinnamon donut. #sarahpalin

My dental only covers half of procedures beyond cleaning, and the time I spent w/out insurance made simple cavities require root canals. So I have had rc's on those teeth, but my shitty dental covers only half of a crown, which is expensive. And some of the crowns won't be covered at all, because they're deemed cosmetic. So I have several uncompleted root canals causing major pain, and I can't get any further on them because every dentist I've seen expects you to pay 100% of the part not covered by insurance. And this is the kinda shit you get when you have insurance. We already have rationed care and frakkin' death panels. #sarahpalin

I fought them for three months to ante up and while they did end up paying, it made me wonder just how much harder they'd fight it if there actually were something wrong with me that would cost a lot more than $180.
Now my company has switched us to another health insurance company that has, at best, 15 percent of the market in this state. The biggest, best research hospital in the state won't take that insurance. I guess I should just hope I don't get hit by a bus.
My colleague gets upset whenever I say the words "public option." He despises the idea of a government-run plan, but the more we hear horror stories about our new health plan, the more I can see the gears in his head thinking, "Gee, maybe we really do need more options..." Ya think??? #sarahpalin
