Alright, let me start out by saying that I am by no stretch of the word a Palin supporter. I can’t stand the lady. Everything she says is either a lie or an opinion I am completely opposed to. But, this is a little ridiculous. Mostly I’m talking about the comments under the article, but the article itself had a negative tone to me. Calling her out for sneaking over the border to receive Canadian health care last week would be one thing, but at the age of five or six I sincerely doubt she was dictating to her parents where she wanted to receive care. That, folks, is not hypocrisy in my mind. I don’t have a problem with it. I think everything she has said about the Canadian system is wrong or exaggerated beyond recognition, but I don’t think her receiving care there when she was a child is hypocritical. Do I think she should know better because she’s actually received care there? You bet your ass I do. And it’s another reason to wonder if even she believes the words that come out of her mouth. But I don’t think it deserves the title of hypocrite. Maybe that’s just me though.
