Oh I see. A nice reasonable explanation is acceptable for Palin. And in this case it really was Bush’s fault. Ok.
Please. TEA PARTY is about opposing taxation/mandates without representation. Governments at all levels have perfected the means and methodology of taxing US using whomever they can.
We are suppose to be vetting a person to elect to STOP this 'crony' capitalism. Sarah had NOTHING to do with mandating anyone to get or to have this vaccine. Rightly or wrongly the CDC got the funding to send out to the states to pay for the 'poor' or specific groups to get the vaccine. Apparently some or all insurance companies were NOT covering this vaccine. Hence Governor Perry mandating it to be covered. THAT was a tax increase, hidden by the insurance companies being required to cover the vaccine.
This whole subject reminds me of the internet tax that the Clintons/algore required telephone companies to collect. And are still collecting even to this day.
