The quotes and questions….errr…..ummmm…not sure where to start with how dimwitted her remarks were, so many in such a small article.
“Inexplicable: I recently won in court to stop my book ‘America by Heart’ from being leaked,” she wrote, “but US Govt can’t stop Wikileaks’ treasonous act?” “Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?” “What explains this strange lack of urgency on their part?” – said Moose

Palin on WikiLeaks 'fiasco'
http://goo.gl/o86Aw
Sarah Palin says the U.S. government’s inability to stop the latest WikiLeaks release is all President Barack Obama’s fault.
Sunday’s document dump of classified State Department cables is the result of the “Obama administration’s incompetent handling of this whole fiasco,” Palin wrote in a Monday afternoon Facebook post, and could have been precluded with more aggressive action by administration officials to protect private documents.
Palin suggests the administration raise the ante against WikiLeaks and its founder, Julian Assange. Calling Assange “an anti-American operative with blood on his hands,” Palin asks, “Why was he not pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders?”
The Obama administration on Monday ordered federal agencies to take steps to prevent future leaks, but Palin wants to know why that move didn’t happen earlier. “It’s of course important that we do all we can to prevent similar massive document leaks in the future … why did the White House not publish these orders after the first leak back in July?” Palin wrote. “What explains this strange lack of urgency on their part?”
The former Alaska governor also wonders what else the White House could have done.
“What if any diplomatic pressure was brought to bear on NATO, EU, and other allies to disrupt WikiLeaks’ technical infrastructure? Did we use all the cyber tools at our disposal to permanently dismantle WikiLeaks? Were individuals working for WikiLeaks on these document leaks investigated? Shouldn’t they at least have had their financial assets frozen just as we do to individuals who provide material support for terrorist organizations?”
Earlier Monday, Palin
suggested via Twitter the administration could have taken to the courts to put the breaks on Sunday’s document dump.
“Inexplicable: I recently won in court to stop my book ‘America by Heart’ from being leaked," she wrote, "but US Govt can't stop Wikileaks' treasonous act?”
* the book had already been leaked. She went after "fair use" and "Copyright infringement" - just one web site !
