2 thoughts on “Thoughts On Sarah Palin And Blood Libel”
This is a pivotal moment. Sarah should not have to stand by herself in defense. Ed Koch is defending Sarah! Anyone squishy is as guilty as those doing the libel. This is an outrageous false slander with evil intent.
Those that would support this libel, right or left, need to be identified, targeted, hunted, put in the crosshairs, help me out here; what other words can I be libeled for using?
Any media person involved in this libel should be deservingly vilified, shamed, discredited along with any combination of whatever can be thought of to scare the hell out of all the me too imbeciles that want to hop on the blood libel band wagon with them.
Shine a light on any cockroach that looks for cover. Bring the subject up whenever you’re with a lefty and crush them. They can’t help but touch a hot wire topic that can be turned to this. Defend freedom or accept slavery.
By warning about “death panels,” Palin highlighted the fly in the ointment of government healthcare. Government control will induce scarcity of healthcare and government rationing will necessarily follow. That rationing, in turn, will be undertaken by panels of government officials empowered to decide who gets what care. Her remark focused the debate on the flaws in the program in a way no other had.
In the case of her use of the term “blood libel,” Palin exposed the Left’s attempt to criminalize conservatives and make it impossible for conservatives to either defend themselves or pursue their alternative policy agenda. A blood libel involves two things: First, an imaginary crime; second, the accusation that an entire group of people is guilty of committing that crime that never occurred.
Palin’s use of plain, easily understood language is a major source of her popularity. She speaks with a clarity that’s rare among politicians, most of whom are more likely to use weasel worded double-talk to hide what they really mean. Those two paragraphs reminded me of an earlier president who dared to speak plainly when he referred to the Soviet Union as an “evil empire.” Years later, I read where a Soviet general was deeply shaken by those words because “it was an empire and it was evil.”
