obama's death panel

i've mentioned this to my friends when sarah palin quit her job: i think sarah palin is interested in a talk-show career. i think that we will pretty soon hear about a contract with FoxNews or XM Sirius or something...

so in preparations for that (cuz she can't leave her name out of the limelight now), sarah palin is throwing some rhetoric out there... it is in line with the previously stated "obama is communist" stuff:

The America I know and love is not one in which my parents or my baby with Down Syndrome will have to stand in front of Obama’s “death panel” so his bureaucrats can decide, based on a subjective judgment of their “level of productivity in society,” whether they are worthy of health care.

Death Panels. Sweet.
