Sarah Palin, aid for the poor and the battle against racial discrimination.

She tops herself, as usual, by criticizing President Lyndon B. Johnson's Great Society legislation, which includes Medicare, Medicaid, environmental laws, educational television,arts and humanities:

"Regan saw the dangers of LBJ's Great Society.He refused to sit down and be silent as our liberties were eroded by an out-of-control centralized government that overtaxed and overreached in utter disregard of constitutional limits"

However venomous this comment is, it disregards the fact that taxation was reduced, along with poverty: Americans living below the poverty line was reduced from 22.2 percent to 12.6 percent, and of African Americans from 55 percent to 27 percent.
