Prelude to 2012: how did Democrats let Sarah Palin destroy health care reform with Facebook?
Examiner.com ^ | Sept. 2, 2009 | D. K. Jamaal

It’s not even 2012, and Sarah Palin, the “lightweight” Caribou Barbie stupid dumb right-wing inexperienced unqualified unaccomplished religious wacko birther enabling nut that came from Wasilla, has already defeated President Obama.

She has trounced Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.

She has trumped MoveOn, ACORN, and Obama’s mass army of volunteers at Organizing for America.

She has out-demagogued the three stooges of MSNBC Keith Olbermann, Chris Matthews, and Rachel Maddow.

Oh, and she did it with Facebook notes.

Read that again: she did it with Facebook notes.

--snip--

Democratic talking head Paul Begala got a lot of press by summing Palin up as a "whack job" and a “lightweight.”

In the meantime, Palin kept releasing healthcare killing Facebook notes – spreading conservative anti-Obamacare articles (August 8 and 9), doubling-down on death panels (August 12), accusing reformists of wanting to ration health care (August 13), and pushing tort reform (August 21).

--snip--

If Palin can manage to throw Obama off message with Facebook, I shudder to think what Palin can accomplish with the entire right-of-center electoral apparatus behind her at the top of a national ticket.

When the Democratic Congress finally passes its Palinized, Obamagutted health care non-reform bill with nothing in it resembling cost control, competition, or anything remotely progressive, the epitaph should read:

“Here lies health care reform: killed by Facebook, buried by Obama.”

You don't have to agree with Palin's policies to be wowed by this -- or to get a kick out of seeing the misogynist, working class-hating East Coast manchild geeks get their butts handed to them by this PTA mom. This is populism at its most stunning.

Some form of health care fascism will pass,

GUARANTEED !!!

And the RINOS will NEVER repeal it,

GAURATEED !!!

RINOS already at work at goverment run detah care monopoly over TIME:

Senior White House officials, in conversations with reporters today, are floating the idea that President Obama is secretly negotiating with Sen. Olympia Snowe over a health care compromise that would phase in a government-funded health care alternative if private insurance companies fail to meet quality and cost benchmarks over a certain period of the time.

What a fun piece of writing. Both in the story and in the thread.

Good work, people.

One of the highlights of the summer of 2009 was that an unemployed housewife sitting in front of a computer in Wasilla, Alaska wrote a Facebook posting that stopped Obamacare in its tracks.

Think what could happen when she becomes President No. 45.

Thank the “moderates” for wishing Zero “success”...

The freeloaders are going insane thinking that they may still have to pay their own medical bills. Communism isn’t any fun when you are held responsible for your own medical bills.

I like Palin and have been a little skeptical of her prospects.

This article puts things in perspective.

Palin has definitely got that formidable “something.”

Two words (”death panels”) and she energized the nation and put the entire Rat socialist health program in jeopardy.

Same here. I am a Palin skeptic.

However, I am old enough to remember the last conservative “lightweight” that couldn't possibly win an election according to the dems and experts

If it was not for Sarah this thing would almost be a done deal. I don't get the Republican attacks on Her, Are these so called Republicans ashamed to stand with Her, or are they ashamed to stand and say they are Republicans.

We tried their way, It got us McLame. It got us a marxist in the big house, it cost us the congress.

Have to go back to Conservatism. At the moment, thats Sarah, She won round one
