At a rally for Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), Sarah Palin — who I do think has been unfairly attacked as a source of “violent” backlash against health care — dismissed outright the idea that opponents of reform were reacting violently. Palin called it a “ginned-up controversy about us common-sense conservatives kinda inciting violence,” inspiring someone in the crowd to yell that activists would oppose the bill “with our votes!”
“That’s right!” said Palin. “When we take up our arms we’re talking about our vote.”
McCain, who made multiple promises to “repeal” the health care bill — “we’ll fight it in the courts, we’ll fight it in the streets” — called the uprising against health care a “peaceful revolution.”
