Someone Tell Her She Doesn't Need To Alienate Canadians?


This time it's Canadians feeling the wrath of Sarah Palin.  During a stop on her book signing tour, Palin told a Canadian comedian she thinks the country to the north should eliminate their public health care system.  Does she really know what she's talking about?

Canada, of any country, seems to have it figured out.  They've got a health care plan that Americans can only dream about.  In fact, upwards of 95% of Canadian citizens have a favorable opinion of their native health care system.

So when Palin said earlier this week she thinks the public system should be abolished.  She - once again - didn't have her facts straight.  Here is her exact quote:
Canada needs to reform its health care system and let the private sector take over some of what the government has absorbed.
This is why Sarah Palin will never be elected president in the United States.  Ninety-five-percent of Canadians agree with something, but Palin thinks it should be overturned.  Palin is too far-right for this country.  But then again, I'm speaking of the country that elected George W. Bush.  Twice.
