Sarah Palin's new book reprises familiar claims from the 2008 presidential campaign that haven't become any truer over time.Ignoring substantial parts of her record if not the facts, she depicts herself as a frugal traveler on the taxpayer's dime, a reformer without ties to powerful interests and a politician roguishly indifferent to high ambition.
Palin goes adrift, at times, on more contemporary issues, too. She criticizes President Barack Obama for pushing through a bailout package that actually was achieved by his Republican predecessor George W. Bush - a package she seemed to support at the time.
A look at some of her statements in "Going Rogue," obtained by The Associated Press in advance of its release Tuesday.

Maybe this is why her political career isn't really going anywhere.

My fave has to be Palin's claim that she did the interview with Katie Couric because Katie obviously had self esteem issues and Sarah didn't want to hurt her feelings so she helped her out at her own peril, selfless jesus-loving patriot that she is.

No one expected her to stick to facts. Her opponents know she's mostly incapable of doing that, and her fans don't want her to. Aw snap!

Sarah Palin herself went rogue on facts when she was still riding McCain's coattails during the Presidential race so... yeah, no big surprise here.

Sarah Palin is the GOP's cancer. She represents religion over government, greed over virtue, ignorance over intelligence and fear mongering over the truth. How can the GOP make itself mainstream when she is one of their leaders?

Odd, some people (conservatives) are also comparable to dingleberries clinging to the hairs of a monkeys ass. I guess that doesn't really get us anywhere then does it?
