"However to run to the store and buy "Going Rouge" to use as a photo background while they were pimping Sara's "Going Rogue" was indeed an actual mistake that made them look like the idiots they actually are. That is really what got Murdoch's knickers in a twist, and the only kind of "mistake" they will ever be concerned about."

Or perhaps being the media arm of the GOP, they deliberately and with malice of foresight, sabotaged Palin's book. She does trash mostly Rs in her book. And more importantly, the GOP knows she can't win in 2012 but they can't get rid of her due to the Tea Baggers Klan, so what to do? Bring her down in public opinion. Which would also explain the 28... See More minute interview Greta Van Scientology did with Palin yesterday; wherein Palin, feeling safe at her home network of liars, revealed her mania and mental illness for the world to see...

Just a theory.

The idea of trying to politicize the 9/11 anniversary in such a naked way is shocking. But of course nothing actually shocks us any more about Beck's tasteless, Obama-hating campaign.
