Did we cover the whole [Oscar swag](http://technorati.com/entertainment/article/sarah-palin-and-clan-clean-up/) thing yet? Admittedly that’s a gossip piece and it’s hard to feel bad about rich people being deprived of free stuff but still, virtually “cleaning the place out” is pretty tacky by any standards. ---
