Former VP Candidate Sarah Palin scores another victory in her truthful claim of health plan “death panels.” The Washington Times says…
Dr. Ezekiel J. Emanuel, the White House official targeted by Sarah Palin and other conservatives as an advocate for health care rationing and “death panels,” said Thursday his “thinking has evolved”
on the need to decide who gets treated and who does not. “When I began working in the health policy area about 20 years ago … I thought we would definitely have to ration care, that there was a need to make a decision and deny people care,” said Dr. Emanuel, a health care adviser to President Obama in the Office of Management and Budget, during a phone interview. “I think that over the last five to seven years … I’ve come to the conclusion that in our system we are spending way more money than we need to, a lot of it on unnecessary care,” he said. “If we got rid of that care we would have absolutely no reason to even consider rationing except in a few cases.”
“If we got rid of that care….” Okay, who decides what care to get rid of? This Emanuel Flip Flop still is scary stuff!

During the campaign last year, it was mentioned that Gov. Palin stopped the ' Bridge to Nowhere" up in her state. I work with someone that does not like Mrs. Palin at all and accused her of keeping the money and not giving the money back. Can someone clear this up for me. Sarah has my vote in 2012 !!!
