Re: Palin used to sneak to Canada for healthcare

Source is a blog, and the veracity of the story is highly questionable.

Re: Palin used to sneak to Canada for healthcare

If it was a joke, they should have added some canned laughter so we'd know, like they did when she was on Jay Leno.

Sarah Palin said:
My first five years of life we spent in Skagway, Alaska, right there by Whitehorse (180km away. see map). Believe it or not – this was in the ‘60s – we used to hustle on over the border for health care that we would receive in Whitehorse. I remember my brother, he burned his ankle in some little kid accident thing and my parents had to put him on a train and rush him over to Whitehorse and I think, isn’t that kind of ironic now. Zooming over the border, getting health care from Canada.

This is still from a blog, and it should be noted that no cameras or recording devices where allowed at the hall she spoke at, so there is a strong likelihood this is exaggerated.
 
Re: Palin used to sneak to Canada for healthcare

It sounds like that it was something her parents did while she was a kid. You can't pin this on her.

to be honest, you don't have to sneak into canada.....they let you right in.
 
Re: Palin used to sneak to Canada for healthcare

why would she lie about this, with that kind of detail? weird.

I am not saying she was lying. I am saying the quote may be inaccurate.

I think she's a pathological liar. She says whatever she thinks of at the moment.

i'm betting this is true, but really, so what? it's something her parents did, anyway.

We needed a bit of hyper-partisan commentary in this thread. Thank you for supplying that.

Of course you can, you just need money, not citizenship.

A Canadian doesn't have to sneak into the US to get medical treatment, all he needs is the cash to pay for it, just like it should be for everyone.

Jesus! Don't go acting like some kind of sane reasonable person, you'll get kicked out of the Hate the USA Club.

don't worry, it happens very rarely.

Why would she lie about ANY of the things she's lied about? Her lies don't even make sense.

well, nothing she says makes much sense.

Amazing she and her brother didn't die in the hands of our death panels!!!
 
I think this is just another of her lies, or at least exaggeration. The Barracuda was born in 1964. How much of "the 60's" could she remember, anyway?
 
Her family must have been poor if they had to go to Canada for health care.
