The way back machine looks at GOP's 2010 darling Sarah Palin on bailouts

[bronxiteforever]

February 6, 2010 speech at a national tea party convention, she compared the bailout to “crony capitalism, noting,

it’s becoming a slush fund for the Treasury Department’s favorite big players, just as we had been warned about. While people on Main Street look for jobs, people on Wall Street, they’re collecting billions and billions in your bailout bonuses. Among the top 17 companies that received your bailout money, 92 percent of the senior officers and directors, they still have their good jobs, and every day Americans are wondering, where are the consequences for they—helping to get us into this worst economic situation since the Great Depression? Where are the consequences?

The following day on Fox News Sunday, she denounced the bailout as an insult to conservativism:

Millions of jobs have been lost because…what’s coming from the White House is just a fundamental difference from a lot of conservatives in our belief that government is not the answer. The bailouts, the takeovers of the private sector—that’s not the answer. That is not what built this great country into the most prosperous, healthiest, safest country on earth.
