Sarah's Warning

Palin Addresses Abortion Foes

Speaks out at Wisconsin event closed to media.

Sarah Palin said Friday that if policymakers allow abortion rights, "perhaps the same mind-set applies to other persons," warning that the government might end health care for elderly patients or special-needs children. Palin's message came in Wisconsin where she was the star speaker at a pro-life fundraising event. Attendees were offered a chance to donate $1,000 in exchange for an autographed copy of the former vice presidential candidate's forthcoming memoir. Palin said, “It is so bogus that society is sending a message right now and has been for probably the last 40 years that a woman isn’t strong enough or smart enough to be able to pursue an education, a career and her rights and still let her baby live.”
