Palin Defends “Death Panels” Again
After a series of controversial Facebook posts, Sarah Palin has an op-ed in the Wall Street Journal on the “bureaucratization of health care” im which she argues President Obama’s proposals “would give unelected officials life-and-death rationing powers.”
Marc Ambinder: “But Palin’s existence in this debate does not lend her voice any credibility and, beyond that, even if you believe that her experience as a state governor does give her at least a modicum of credibility, it does not follow that, because her voice is credible, it ought to be influential.”
The question is: Will the cable news channels take the bait?
Foley to Become Radio Host
Nearly three years after then-Rep. Mark Foley (R-FL) “saw his political career crumble following the revelation of his sexually explicit emails with underage congressional pages,” ABC News notes “he’s garnering the spotlight once again: as a radio talk show host.”
Foley “is set to debut his radio show entitled Inside the Mind of Mark Foley on Sept. 22 on West Palm Beach radio station WSVU 960am.”
