As the entire MSM focuses its entire attention on Sarah Palin’s Facebook statement, that calls attention to "Obama’s death panel" being "downright evil", no one in the MSM seems to have noticed that Palin issued an impressive list of articles on the health care topic over the last two days.
Palin on Facebook Saturday August 8, 2009:
“As Americans spend the next few weeks discussing health care reform, I thought it might be helpful to share some articles (and one panel discussion video) that I’ve found especially insightful.”
Here is the list from Saturday August 8 and Sunday August 9:

For links to all of the above referenced sources please visit Sarah Palin’s Facebook page here.
From viewing the list, one can clearly see that Palin has consulted a wide and diverse array of sources for various media too. As a Catholic and a blogger, I was quite impressed that Palin sited EWTN and Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion blog.
Now remember back during the campaign when Katie Couric pressed Palin for what she read:
Couric: And when it comes to establishing your worldview, I was curious, what newspapers and magazines did you regularly read before you were tapped for this to stay informed and to understand the world?
Palin: I've read most of them, again with a great appreciation for the press, for the media.
Couric: What, specifically?
Palin: Um, all of them, any of them that have been in front of me all these years.
Couric: Can you name a few?
Palin: I have a vast variety of sources where we get our news, too. Alaska isn't a foreign country, where it's kind of suggested, "Wow, how would you keep in touch with what the rest of Washington, D.C., may be thinking when you live up there in Alaska?" Believe me, Alaska is like a microcosm of America.
Clearly Sarah Palin was not kidding when she said “… all of them”. Many on the left to this day believe that since Palin did not give any specific titles, that meant she was uneducated and uninformed. However anyone looking at the list above can clearly see, nothing could be further from the truth.
Now here is the big question. If Katie Couric is half the journalist she pretends to be, will she realize that Palin has given her an answer? Something tells me, if we tune into Katie tonight she will still be stuck on the old news of the “downright evil” “death panel”.

Interesting how Sarah Palin can draw them in. All see has to do is make a statement and when the critics rush in, hit them where it counts. The MSMs are like moths to a flame. They can't help themselves. I read Jacobson's post when he first posted and thought he made a compelling argument.
I have not been blogging in a while, but am still loving what you have to say~ LOVE the new look! You are a breath of fresh air! America needs your voice, and the many other voices of reason! Keep on putting it out there. We will keep on reading!
katie was so jealous of sarah palin she couldn't see straight. i love that pic of katie for this post. she looks like the liberal retard that she is.
Mike Licht:
Poor Paula
CG:
Yes it is amazing who one statement on Facebook can actually get the POTUS to make a note of it in his weekly address. Methinks she is in his head big time.
Jacobson's piece was a good argument. Now that we know Sarah reads conservative blogs, I have to find a way to get her to visit ABC, LOL!
Pondering Catholic:
Thank you very much!
AD Maiorem Dei Gloriam.

Do you remember the old Lost In Space? Dr. Smith use to call the Robot a bubble headed booby. That is the perfect name for Ms. Couric.
