You Can't Fix Stupid

It's very possible that Sarah Palin is so stupid and so starving for attention that she would say anything just to get a response out of people. What's worse than her stupidity is there are millions of people who take what she says as truth. So when she says President Obama will have a "death panel" that would decide her son's fate, millions latch on to her words. There's no reason to fact check her comments, no reason to doubt her, and no reason to bother with the truth; for the millions who follow her it is factual gospel that Barack Obama wants health care reform so he can kill undesirables like her Down Syndrome son Trig.

Her comments are so disgustingly untrue that even her fellow right wing whackjobs are distancing themselves from her. But none of that matters. It's too late. What she said has already hit the ears of millions and her deed is done. Thanks for bringing America to a new low. Her words and actions explain entirely why mobs of Tea Baggers are so angry. I'd be angry too if my visualization of health care reform was guided by Sarah Palin.

*Update:

Just like I said, Tea Baggers in Alaska, taking their cues from Sarah Palin, claim health care reform will kill off older Americans.

**Update:

If I were a Tea Bagger and believed everything Sarah Palin said, I too would be furious with people wanting to kill my grandma. Town hall hosted by Arlen Specter in PA turns rather violent and uncivil. But hey Obama wants death squads so why not fight back?

***Update:

And all the proof we need that there will be no fact-checking on Sarah Palin, or anyone who spouts outright vicious lies about health care reform. No need to fact-check because Palin's deed is done. Fox News reports the Specter town hall from this morning, the same town hall where people asked questions and made statements about Islam, spoke about Gitmo and prisoners murdering innocents on the homeland, and referenced health care reform as a sin that will be judged by God, as "an informed, articulate, and very concerned group of American people..."

Yes, those who think Obama is going to form death sqads to kill undesirables, that Islam has anything to do with health care reform, that reforming our health care system is a sin judged by God are very serious, "informed, articulate, and very concerned people." Palin's deed is done indeed. The terrorists have control of the plane.
