“WikiLeaks’ info dump is the result of the Obama administration’s incompetent handling of this whole fiasco,” Palin wrote in a Monday afternoon Facebook post. “Why wasn’t [Julian Assange] pursued with the same urgency we pursue al Qaeda and Taliban leaders? Did we use all the cyber tools at our disposal to permanently dismantle WikiLeaks?” Her credibility on this issue went out the window Monday morning, though, when she tweeted, “Inexplicable: I recently won in court to stop my book from being leaked, but US Govt can’t stop Wikileaks’ treasonous act?” Ha! If Gawker leaking a few pages of America By Heart was anything like WikiLeaks dumping a quarter-million confidential cables on the world, the blog would not have taken down that post so quickly. Oh, why are we even bothering? [Politico]
