In yet another interview excerpt released today, Sarah Palin was asked by Barbara Walters whether she believed the President was a liar for claiming that there were no death panels in the health care reform bill.
Palin replied, “He’s not lying, in the sense that those two words will not be found in any of those thousands of pages of the different variations of the health care bill…No, death panel isn’t there. But he’s incorrect.”
She then made an interesting comparison.
“It’s kind of what Reagan used to do though when he used to talk about, say, the Evil Empire. You’re never going to find ‘The Evil Empire’ on a map of the world. He talked about that in terms that people could understand…Now, had he been criticized and mocked and condemned for using a term that wasn’t actually there on a map or in documents, we probably would have never succeeded in quashing the Evil Empire and winning that.
