Palin: 'Hillary's Brain Is Off-Limits' To Dems, But My Son Wasn't [View all]

CATHERINE THOMPSON – MAY 20, 2014, 7:56 AM EDT

Sarah Palin mocked Democrats on Monday for crying foul over the suggestion that Hillary Clinton may have suffered a "traumatic brain injury" while there was no outcry over the conspiracy theories she faced about her biological relationship to her son.

"Hey! Hillary’s brain is off-limits! Leave her health records alone!" Palin wrote in a Facebook post. "Democrats are right – scouring records of a female candidate is just politics of personal destruction, and for the media to engage in it would be unfair, unethical, and absolutely UNPRECEDENTED. You can’t probe a woman like that because, well, it’s a war on women!"

Palin linked to articles from Politico and Salon about rumors that circulated when she was running for vice president suggesting she wasn't the real mother of her youngest son Trig, who has down syndrome.

"Goodness, no one credible would print lies, continually harass a candidate’s doctor, disrupt local hospital staff, or even offer to pay locals to give 'quotes' about her health records to be included in a 'research book' by a public university professor (your tax dollars at work?) which the candidate’s attorney will need to respond to," Palin wrote.
