Sarah Palin on Health Care

I'm betting that Sarah's WSJ Article makes more sense and includes more specifics than Obama's upcoming helath care rah-rah speech to Congress can hope to. Mrs. Palin agrees with President Obama on one thing:

Writing in the New York Times last month, President Barack Obama asked that Americans "talk with one another, and not over one another" as our health-care debate moves forward.

I couldn't agree more. Let's engage the other side's arguments, and let's allow Americans to decide for themselves whether the Democrats' health-care proposals should become governing law.

She disagrees with him on another:

How can we ensure that those who need medical care receive it while also reducing health-care costs? The answers offered by Democrats in Washington all rest on one principle: that increased government involvement can solve the problem. I fundamentally disagree.

Common sense tells us that the government's attempts to solve large problems more often create new ones. Common sense also tells us that a top-down, one-size-fits-all plan will not improve the workings of a nationwide health-care system that accounts for one-sixth of our economy. And common sense tells us to be skeptical when President Obama promises that the Democrats' proposals "will provide more stability and security to every American."

Face it, people. Sarah Palin is smart, she's cute and she's here to stay. Her looks are merely a bonus; I like her because she doesn't talk down to me like Mr. Community Organizer does.

Barack Obama is not stupid. Sarah Palin rightly scares the shit out of him.

  1. Obama is a little bit stupid. The people who thrust him forward and running the entire show, however, are not stupid.
