A rhetorical question? No, she asked because she wanted to remove books. Sure, she never gave a list of specific books she wanted to remove. But she asked because she WANTS to remove books. I see no other likely motive. The only other motive even possible is that she was trying to trick the library in to agreeing with her to remove books and then shouting "HA! Got you! You're a bunch of book banners! I'm outing you!"... Anyway, she has proven more concretely in various interviews that she's even less competent to be the Vice President since I wrote this. Seriously?

In her first public statement since Palin was named the GOP vice-presidential candidate, Mary Ellen Baker said today, "I simply do not recall a conversation with specific titles," Baker told ABCNews.com. Palin has acknowledged she twice raised the issue in 1996 of how books could be removed from the shelves, but said it was only a "rhetorical question" and that she did not ask for any books to be banned.
