1. This would go over as well as the op-out for stimulus money.
Like not at all.

3. Perfect example of why not EVERYONE should be allowed to participate.
There should be a test for ignorance.

4. Yes, you need to make sure everyone stays "free to make their own healthcare
decisions." And when the decisions are between going broke, going to the emergency room, putting off health care and medicine for lack of money, and dying, well you can rest assured that you have done everything to keep peoples freedom of choice.

oh, wait, does that mean you're PRO_CHOICE? oh, boy...

I wish more people would bring this conundrum up.

If you don't want the Government messin' in your health care, how can you reconcile that with giving Government the power to decide whether you should have a baby or not. Or what you should do to prevent yourself from becoming pregnant? You can't have it both ways, y'know.

6. Too bad she doesn't want all Kansas citizens to be healthy. If all Kansas citizens
really had all the choices laid out and explained to them, they would vote for single-payer.

What the heck is the matter with Kansas?

7. I want to know her college board entry scores... I bet she
didn't make it to college with anything above 500, verbal, and 400 math.

Then there is the test for sanity, or indicators of paranoia.

She doesn't seem to be able to speak about numbers, but only about her fears, and, by the way, she seems to have a cold or pneumonia, which makes her sound too sick to really speak logically.

9.  She has spasmodic dyphonia.Since the condition needs constant care i am surprised she isn't more
empathetic to others. It is a very debilitatating neurological condition.

10. I am very sorry for her health condition, thanks for letting me know, but
wouldn't she be having a lot of problems if her insurance company decided next week to drop her coverage?

I bet she's just someone on the public dole, working as a state rep, who never thought that, were it not for her PUBLICLY-FUNDED health care insurance, she would be up a creek without a paddle.

I hope she sees the light, when someone with HER same condition meets up with her, someone WITHOUT health insurance.

16. Total idiocy as to what 'state sovereignty' means.
But these RWers have to spew idiocy to spin the fact that they wish to prevent freedom of choice, not enhance it.

17. Please help this little woman's video get the attention it deserves.
She needs a few hundred more people commenting on the foolishness of her ideas.

Though I got that from the video.

She also thought

“Sen. McCain couldn’t have made a wiser choice,” Pilcher Cook said. “Gov. Palin is a woman who is dedicated to sound fiscal responsibility and she has strong moral convictions for family values – traits that our nation needs right now. At the same time, she is a caring and compassionate woman who is concerned about the individual human person.”

20. Arghh! But for some, Palin wa the best they had.I wonder if she knows she can't"prove" any of
those satements about Palin. In fact , the converse is far more easily proved.

21. Does Kansas have something in their drinking water that makes them so
brain dead?

Let's try to wake up a few people's brains in Kansas.
