Apple has not yet responded to the petition, which urges CEO Steve Jobs to reference the company's own software guidelines and remove the app. The terms state that "any app that is defamatory, offensive, mean-spirited, or likely to place the targeted individual or group in harms way will be rejected."

The application that translates Sarah Palin speech to English made it through too!

And wouldn't a GPS navigation system, texting, browsing or even talking while driving place an individual in harm's way? These phones have GPS tracking. If they really believed that statement, why don't they just make the phone shut down while moving more than 10-15 MPH?
