Publisher’s Weekly confirmed that Sarah Palin has sold 700,000 copies of her new book “Going Rogue” in its first week out of 2.5 million copies.

Her latest post on Facebook questions the idea of a “war tax.”

Congress Never Ceases to Amaze
Yesterday at 7:51pm

Really? A tax on national defense? I hear liberal Congressional proposals and I, like most Americans, wonder if they’re serious. We’re going to put a price tag on security?

With Congress and President Obama spending money on everything at breakneck speed, it’s interesting that they are only now getting nervous about spending – but only when it comes to providing the necessary funds to complete our mission in Afghanistan. They don’t need a new “war tax” to fund a strategy for victory in the war zone. They simply need to prioritize our money appropriately.

I find it telling that the Pelosi-Reid Congress is only cost-conscious when it comes to our national defense. Scary. Nonsensical. Unacceptable.
