WASHINGTON, July 27 (UPI) -- Sarah Palin accused U.S. President Barack Obama of trying to frighten the American people and urged Republicans to stand firm in the debt-ceiling fight.
"Scaring the American people is exactly what President Obama is doing," the former Alaska governor said Tuesday on Fox News. "The president's getting pretty good at this fear-mongering and trying to cram down the public's throat this idea of bigger government, more spending."
