Exploiting 9/11?
Sarah Palin on Wednesday:

Our son Track is 19. And one week from tomorrow - September 11th - he'll deploy to Iraq with the Army infantry in the service of his country.

It's a touching story of patriotism inspired by the 9/11 attacks, except according the New York Daily News, it turns out not to be entirely true -- her son is actually deploying on September 12, not September 11.

Palin was expected to break from the trail to return to Alaska and see off her oldest son, Track, 19, who is deploying to Iraq with his Army unit on Sept. 12.

Of course, there is no need to embellish her son's honorable decision to serve this country, and nothing that Sarah Palin can say can cheapen that. But if the Daily News story is accurate, it says something pathetic about her character.

Are people not sick of the crassness? The pandering? The lies?
Does the GOP have anything else?
