Link: The Washington Post Post columnist Richard Cohen likens Sarah Palin's factually incorrect statements about "death panels" in Democratic health care overhaul proposals to the Red-scare demagoguery of Sen. Joseph McCarthy. "For sheer disregard of the facts, her statement about President Obama's 'death panel' has to rank with McCarthy's announcement that 'I have here in my hand a list of 205' (or 57 or 72 or whatever) names of communists in the State Department," Cohen writes. "They were both false -- McCarthy's by commission, Palin's probably by omission. She rarely knows her facts."
