Calling yesterday's health care vote a "clarion call and a spur to action," former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin urged conservative citizens today to make the Democrats' health reform package a top issue in this fall's midterm elections.

"In the weeks to come, we can expect to try to change the subject, but we won't forget," Palin wrote in a Facebook note. "Don't let them move on to further 'transformational' steps while forgetting what Congress just did against the will of the people."

Blasting the bill for the new taxes and bureaucracy it will create, Palin said, "This unsustainable bill jeopardizes the very thing it was supposed to fix - our health care system."

She also excoriated Democrats for "corrupt deals" and "the corrupt process," and she specifically called out "those who promised to hold firm against government funding of abortion, but caved at the last minute" -- namely, Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.) and a handful of other anti-abortion rights Democrats.

Palin calls for the repeal of portions of the Democrats' bill, though she does not expressly say what parts.

1. "Palin calls for the repeal of portions...

...of the Democrats' bill, though she does not expressly say what parts." Of course not; for her to be more specific, two things would have to happen:

(1) She'd have to find someone prepared to waste their time reading the bill to her; and
(2) She'd have to find someone prepared to waste their time telling her what to think about it.

A top issue in this fall's midterm elections.

How many seats do you think they might lose? Bring it on.

6. I hope hope hope they do...after the public see all the benefits

of health insurance, they will kick the republicans out by the score. Knowing they were trying to stop them from getting from the benefits they so sorely need.

7. Well...

I hardly think she said any of that, her "people" may have put it out, but she is to busy trying to get rich to actually come up with a coherent thought or any kind, except " how much can I get if I do X,Y or Z"!

8. Did she say this via her Facebook page because she is a coward and usually posts her crap on there.

Shut up, Sarah, for once in your god-forsaken shit life--SHUT. THE. FUCK. UP.
