The new conservative icon is proving that there probably are no conservative icons. According to the Anchorage Daily News Sarah (I can be compassionate with other people’s money too) Palin is proposing “$5 million in new spending on areas like Head
Start, obesity prevention, a test program of half-day preschool, and
expanded Denali KidCare insurance.” The Alaskan governor, who has apparently been influenced by her association with the ABC (Anything But Conservative) John McCain states that “That means more working families will have health coverage.” And of course an expanded nanny state to watch over their pre-school kids and to keep those obviously ignorant working families from eating too much. By the way, if you think that maybe she plans on cutting other areas of the Alaskan budget to pay for this spending increase of more than $7 for every person in the state of Alaska, think again. According to the Daily News “Palin will release the rest of her proposed state budget next week and said not to expect any significant cuts.”
