Palin hallucinates about “Obama Death Panel” killing Trig

And Sarah Palin scolded reporters for “making things up“?  Maybe she should take her own advice.

Today the Quitbull stumbled off the diving board and did an excruciating belly flop into the health care reform debate, fretting at her facebook page over Baby Trig’s fate under what she refers to as “nationalized health care”.   (You remember Trig:  that poor kid of hers who got passed around more than a pigskin at a Packers game during the election campaign.)   Obviously Palin doesn’t like Trig’s chances for making the cut when the roll is called by Obama’s Death Panel — yes, you read that right, “Obama’s Death Panel”:

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. Such a system is downright evil.

Indeed, such a scenario would be very disturbing if it existed anywhere outside of Palin’s fevered imagination, but it doesn’t, and she probably knows that.  If she doesn’t, she’s far too stupid to be taken seriously on the issue — what a surprise — she’s just shoveling another steaming load and stirring it into the increasingly toxic pot of shit that’s come to characterize right-wing anti-reform propaganda.  She continues indignantly:

Health care by definition involves life and death decisions. Human rights and human dignity must be at the center of any health care discussion.

That’s all well and good for Sawah, who is by anyone’s definition a wealthy woman who can afford to pay top dollar for health care.  But apparently in Palin’s vapid little world, human rights don’t extend to those who haven’t lucked into the kind of gravy train she has.  No human dignity for them, and I’m not making that up.
