On November 15^th Palin complained that the Associated Press was doing a fact check of her new book, “Going Rogue”. She said on her Face Book page:

Amazingly, but not surprisingly, the AP somehow nabbed a copy of the book before it was released. They're now erroneously reporting on the book's contents and are repeating many of the same things they spewed during the campaign and afterwards. We've heard 11 writers are engaged in this opposition research, er, "fact checking" research! Imagine that – 11 AP reporters dedicating time and resources to tearing up the book, instead of using the time and resources to "fact check" what's going on with Sheik Mohammed's trial, Pelosi's health care takeover costs, Hasan's associations, etc. Amazing.

Her book amazingly fell into the hands of Rush Limbaugh before its official release and she did not complain about that. This is what he said about it on November 13th:

I talked to her yesterday -- I've got the book. I have it right over here on the left. And I've had a chance -- I just got it a couple of days ago, three days ago -- and I've had a chance to go through it, and I was -- I made a prediction to her when I talked to her yesterday. I said, "You've got enough in here that people who get hold of this, like the AP or any of the state-controlled media, they're going to focus on what they think -- the soap-opera aspects of your book, and they're going to ignore what is truly one of the most substantive policy books I've read."

This woman, Governor Palin, clearly is jazzed by policy, particularly environmental policy and energy policy, as well as taxes and so forth.

Fox “News” also had a miraculous copy and were commenting about it on November 13, 2009 but they contradicted Limbaugh about the "substantive policy" parts.^.

Palin thinks either you are for her or against her. Checking facts in books is a tradition within society and the press and it is not “opposition” to do so.

She is just afraid she will be made to look worse than she already is and have to explain the “inconsistencies” and lies she put on paper.  She also knows she is not intellectually able to debate about what she wrote in her book.

Like a self-centered psychopath the only thing she can readily do is whine, complain and make herself the “victim”.

Palin victimizes the truth.
