The former governor of Alaska, Mayor Mooseburger as I so lovingly call her, is spouting off yet again about health care and how under President Obama's plan, advisors will walk into nursing homes and put down any old person who's medicine costs more than $4.75 a day. Ok, so that's not exactly what she's saying but it's close. The "death panels" she refers to are supposed groups who will decide who gets and who is denied health care. Please, do people really believe this?
My favorite part of this whole thing is that now that Mayor M doesn't have the gubernetorial podium to stand on (which I believe consists of two salmon crates tied together with twine), she must now give her two cents through a slightly less grandiose platform...Facebook status updates. She went from having a press secretary issuing press releases, to broadcasting her views from her sectional sofa and iBook through status updates and Tweets. (Which, incidentally, I asked her if she would no longer be using the Twitter handle AKGovSarahPalin...she has yet to respond to me).
Who thinks they can influence people through silly social media sites like Facebook or Twitter?! Oh...wait...oops. Hey, if you are reading this you fell for it! :)
