From the LA Times:

'Reporting from Washington — President Obama suggested at a town hall
event Wednesday night that one way to shave medical costs is to stop
expensive and ultimately futile procedures performed on people who are
about to die and don't stand to gain from the extra care.'

'In a nationally televised event at the White House, Obama said
families need better information so they don't unthinkingly approve
"additional tests or additional drugs that the evidence shows is not
necessarily going to improve care."'

'He added: "Maybe you're better off not having the surgery, but taking
the painkiller."'

There's an interesting contradiction here. According to the pro-choice
perspective, it's outrageous for the state to interfere in a woman's
decision to terminate a pregnancy. But it's pragmatic and reasonable
for the state to consider terminating a person, if some money can be
saved.

Sarah Palin: Out, but not down
WedÂ*JulÂ*8, 7:05Â*pmÂ*ET
You betcha Sarah Palin is still a viable presidential candidate! Even
though the governor of Alaska dropped the bombshell last week that she
was leaving her post, a new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll finds that her
support among Republicans is still strong. In fact, her resignation
seems to have even slightly boosted her among GOP constituents.
According to the nationwide poll, close to 67% of Republicans want
Palin to be "a major national political figure" in the future. And 71%
of them say they would likely vote for her if she ran for president in
2012.

Top Republican consultant Mary Matalin called Palin's move
"brilliant," and conservative talk-show host Bill Bennett went on CNN
to discuss the surprisingly high number of viewers who called into his
show in support of Palin's decision.
"To political pros [Palin's resignation] may be a problem. To the
base, I'm not sure it's a problem at all," Bennett told CNN.

And
Bennett may be exactly right. Just as Republicans as a whole are
unfazed by Palin's move, the poll shows Democrats and Independents are
as unhappy with her as they were before, with 75% of Democrats and 55%
of independents preferring she leave the national stage altogether.
According to USA TODAY, public opinion of Palin has become so
polarized that her surprise announcement did little to change anyone's
feelings: Seven out of 10 people say their views weren’t affected at
all.
GOP consultant Alex Castellanos seconded Bennett's sentiment. He told
USA TODAY:

"For Independents and Democrats, she's already not their candidate,
and with Republicans her support is not based on her record as
governor of Alaska."
But what would bring about such stark polarization between the
parties?

Some would argue that it was Palin's in-your-face attitude
and all-too publicized blunders that ultimately posited her as an
inexperienced and unviable candidate. But Palin, in her resignation
speech, blamed the media, calling its coverage of her a "superficial,
wasteful, political bloodsport."

And Republicans echo Palin's
complaints of media mistreatment. According to the poll, 75% of the
GOP believes coverage of Palin has been unfairly negative.

Dana
Oshiro of ReadWriteWeb.com opines that the Web is also to blame. "It’s
the Internet that ignited the tournament of torment," she writes. From
viral videos of "Palin drag shows" to ubiquitous photos of Palin
Halloween costumes, the ex-governor became the "Internet's comic
relief in an environment that might have otherwise been staunch."
Whether Palin has been unfairly portrayed in the media continues to be
a hotly debated issue. But one thing seems to be certain: She has
established herself as an American media fixture, loved and loathed by
either side of the aisle.
