Palin Says Reagan Would View Health-Care Law With ‘Outrage’

Sarah Palin, a potential 2012 presidential candidate, said the U.S. is at a “crisis point” as the Obama administration pursues policies that will lead to “decline and defeat.”
“If President Reagan were alive today” the hills in California “would echo with his outrage” over the enactment of President Barack Obama’s health-care overhaul, she said last night at the Reagan Ranch Center in Santa Barbara, California.
The 2008 Republican vice-presidential nominee and former Alaska governor gave the keynote address at a Young America’s Foundation tribute to the centennial of former President Ronald Reagan’s birth on Feb. 6, 1911.
Palin, 46, focused on a speech Reagan gave in 1964 on behalf of Republican presidential candidate Barry Goldwater, in which he discussed the dangers of high taxes and government regulations.
“We face the same choices now as we did then, only now we are in even worse shape,” she said. She called for cutting federal spending, overhauling entitlement programs for future recipients and reducing government regulation.
“Government created the problem, now government presents itself as the solution trying to convince us that we can win the future,” Palin said, referring to a theme of Obama’s Jan. 25 State of the Union address.
