Let's see:
iconphoto of the Governor & "baby Trig" is, well, holy. ("An iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child." Why, it is sacred. And consecrated.) And it was "maliciously desecrated." And, "degeneracy," also!
"Recently we learned of a malicious desecration of a photo of the Governor and baby Trig that has become an iconic representation of a mother's love for a special needs child," Palin spokeswoman Meghan Stapelton said in a statement provided to CNN.
