Video: Palin Ordered Her Own Health Care Death Panels on the Alaskan Elderly

From Denny: Palin and the caustic Wingnut Party have so incensed reasonable and compassionate people like anchorman Keith Olbermann they have done some Palin research into how she ran Alaska's government health care and it isn't pretty.

Palin was looking for ways to keep the elderly out of state run or partly financed nursing homes and so many were reassessed and kicked out or just plain died while undergoing assessment. Palin is responsible for killing off someone else's Grandmas with her own version of the Alaskan Death Panel as she made these decisions. From the Anchorage Daily News: "In one 2 1/2 year stretch, 227 elderly adults already getting services died while waiting for a nurse to reassess their needs."

Palin strikes me as an alcoholic because of her classic "blaming behavior" and never takes any responsibility for her own decisions. It does make a person wonder about how many in the Republican Party are hard core alcoholics... It's always someone else to blame for this or that. C'mon, at some point the buck stops at her desk. Two words: grow up. And while you're at it: quit drinking, sober up and live smarter.

If this woman is what the Republicans are hanging their hopes on for Presidential material, well, good luck - because they are going to need it. No one with an ounce of logic, compassionate and care for others, anyone who wants affordable health care and a decent job that pays their bills will vote for that level of greed and insanity.
