the major talking that was on Hannity last night he DID NOT counter is that Palin would not pay for rape victims ER visits in Wasilla. I thought that this was a law in effect when she took office and eventually at some point it was changed. Perhaps she had a chance in changing it.
I think that it’s becoming clear, that SHE needs to get out there and take on these questions directly.
Or maybe that Hannity -- or you -- should do some research? If you're interested in the facts, that is.
"No, she didn’t try to charge rape victims personally for rape kits. This is one of those complicated ones with a tiny hint of truth behind it. First, the Chief of Police in Wasilla (not Palin) did apparently have a policy of asking a victim’s health insurance to pay for the rape kit as part of the ER visit. This, it turns out, is policy in a number of states, including Missouri and North Carolina. Second, the way this became an issue was after the then-governor of Alaska signed a bill forbidding it; this law was signed before Palin was Governor and no one tried to reverse it while she was Governor. Third, what the CoP in Wasilla wanted to do was charge the perpetrator as part of restitution"
