Healthcare redux

Breaking news regarding this whole ’Pub “healthcare-reform-is-the-Antichrist” thing:

Sarah Palin winks that it’s “ironic” that she “used to hustle over the border for healthcare we received in Canada”. This in an appearance before an audience in Calgary at the weekend.

(I'm wondering if Palin confused Canada with Russia, which apparently is close enough to Alaska to run over to borrow a cup of supper.)

Canadian press coverage of the event just gives me too much ammunition for ridicule. I mean, La Palin all on her own is a joke, albeit a very dangerous one. Witness the quote from Stephanie Hansen, 18; she loves Palin despite not knowing bupkes about her politics.

See—that’s the Republican platform right there.
