Palin's book already a best seller

NEW YORK - Just two days after HarperCollins announced that Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue" had been moved up from the spring to Nov. 17, preorders Wednesday night for the former Alaska governor's memoir made it No. 1 on both Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com.
Among the books "Going Rogue" is outselling: Sen. Ted Kennedy's "True Compass," Mitch Albom's "Have a Little Faith" and Dan Brown's "The Lost Symbol," his first novel since "The Da Vinci Code" and, perhaps until now, the year's most anticipated release.
Palin, in collaboration with author Lynn Vincent, completed her 400-page book just four months after agreeing to terms with HarperCollins, which plans a first printing of 1.5 million copies. It's the first book by Palin, the 2008 Republican vice presidential candidate and Alaska governor until suddenly resigning last summer.
She is regarded as a possible 2012 contender for the presidency. Past candidates, notably Barack Obama, have been helped by writing best-selling books, invaluable platforms for politicians to tell their story.
The response at Alaska bookstores was mixed.
A woman taking a call at Waldenbooks in Wasilla, Palin's hometown, said she was pre-ordering a copy at that moment and there had been "lots of interest." She would not give her name but referred a reporter to her boss, Borders district manager Grant Larsen, who said interest had been strong both in Wasilla and Anchorage.
"We're very excited about it and already have several signed up," he said. "We're expecting that to be massive."
A lot of people are coming into the store and asking to reserve a copy, Larsen said. Borders booksellers also are asking customers if they want to reserve one. The more people reserve copies, he said, the more copies the stores will get.
Julie Drake, co-owner of Anchorage's largest independent bookstore, Title Wave, stopped to quiz her booksellers about Palin's book.
"Nobody has said a word. Not a single customer has asked about it. I don't know what that means. Maybe we're all going rogue, going all mavericky," she said.

THIS PROVES THAT SARAH PALIN IS RIGHT!!!
Yawn
Hhahhhahahaahha bwahahhahahahaha wait bhwahahhaahaa there is her last laugh!! Good job Sarah
Hey, does anyone know where the triplets have been?
I have already pre-ordered my six copies for Christmas presents. You go Sarah. Love you.
Wonder what she has written about the Port Authority and how they thought they had her in their pocket, the Republican Good Old boys and Girls in Alaska, Hickel, Murkowski, etc.. Wonder how many of them are sweating bullets wondering if she has done a tell all.
Sarah who?
Wonder how many of them are sweating bullets wondering if she has done a tell all.
-----------------------
They SHOULD be scared, freedarfur, given her penchant for blaming all her personal failings on others.
I'm buying copies for Christmas for all my hayseed relatives in the Flyover States!
Go Sarah 2012!!!
Split that republican ticket, yeah!
"Sarah Palin finished her book... and became a best seller even faster... Just two days after HarperCollins announced... the release of... "Going Rogue"... preorders for the former Alaska governor's book have made it No. 1 on Barnes & Noble-dot-com... and... No. 2 on Amazon.com..."
I hear the first printing is set for 1.5 million (and I hope she sells 5 million plus before she's done). What's she going to say? Don't know but would guess it will impress enough people that Harper Collins will willingly invest in a deal with her to write a second book!!!
The literary value of that book is best enjoyed by putting under that short table leg in the dining room.
And to think that Palin sold more books in one day than Dermot has in his whole life.
http://www.amazon.com/Dermot-Cole/e/B001...
This is a surprise? To whom? This is a culture where people bought pet rocks. Absolutely she is laughing her way to the bank. More power to her. Of course she was right -- to quit being Governor and make a mint for herself. ANd she obviously won't stop here. Why not go for it? People sell what they've got. She's got notoriety. Whatever works, use it.
She called her dad to ask him if he remembered how many points she scored in a game, {basketball??)...wow, that should be a really INTERESTING book...ha ha!!! BORING!!
I didn't know there were 1.5 million Republicans who could read. (And judging from this, there soon may be 1.5 million Republicans who wish they hadn't.)
The difference between Dermots book and Sarahs, is that one is written by an intellectual and the other is written by a boring housewife that neglects her kids and can't speak without someone telling her what to say!
I understand "Mein Kampf" also sold in the millions of copies and Mao's little red book sold in the tens of millions of copies.
Then there's the Nancy Drew mysteries, the Hardy Boys, the Tom Swift and Tom Swift Jr. (don't confuse the one for the other) series...all of which sold in the millions.
I suspect some seeing this article might confuse quantity for quality. (Is it true the first chapter is entitled, "And on the 8th Day He Made Me!" following by such chapters as "Me, My Bulldozer, and How Denali Came to Be", "I See Russia, I See France...", "Why Won't NASA Admit I Was First on the Moon?", and the final chapter, "P.T.Barnum Was Right About What's Born Every Minute; Thanks for Buying This Book!".
dobie....haha now that's funny!!
Hollywood sources say already a bidding war has broken out over the movie rights to her book between Mel Brooks and National Lampoon. Word is, they want Leslie Nielson to play Sarah (although originally they wanted Peter Sellers ala Inspector Clouseau until someone pointed out he has long been dead).
doobie - I thought your reading was limited to High Times.
The mouth foamers are out today .
The only thing that really bothers me about this is how it shows Levi was correct. I hate to give that mimbo credit but in this instance he had Sarah pegged dead on. In his recent Vanity Fair interview he told how Sarah had talked about wanting to quit the governorship because she could make at least triple the money outside it that she was making while serving.
Of course, with her gadding about giving talks, working so hard on this book, that rest and relaxation with her family that she cited as a reason for quitting seems even more shallow and incredible than before but that's Sarah for ya. Never one to let the facts stand in the way of a good story.
Makes you wonder what else Levi got right about her....
You Betcha . I Gotcha (Wink) . On the road to the "big bank" .
Barks...as opposed to those with foam between their ears?
N. Korea has already ordered 5,000 copies. People convicted of misdemeanors in that country will be forced to read the first chapter. Those convicted of felonies will have to read the next 5 chapters. Those convicted of treason will be given a choice between having to read and summarize the book or death by hanging. (Fortunately, they've also had the foresight to order several hundred yards of high quality rope.)
Also, the U.S. Forest Service has ordered 7,000 copies. Field tests have demonstrated the book is up to 7 times more effective in repelling aggressive bears than the best bear spray. Tests are underway by the Navy to see if it has similar value as a shark-repellant.
(There are rumors hanging a copy around your neck will repel mosquitoes, too, but doctors are warning about having it that close to the head for extended periods.)
(Or was it Larry Fine they wanted to play her part in the movie? Naw...he's been dead even longer than Sellers and, besides, Curly would make a more logical candidate for his insight into that sort of character. Poor Moe wasn't considered at all; too intellectual, they said.)
Gads...can you imagine how tired her Faithful Followers are going to be after reading her book? They won't be able to move their lips again for days!
*Bing!* Round Two! (This is fun!!!)
I'm sure there will be a great demand for the book in Alaska. After all, we are the state with the most outhouses per capita and since Sears no longer publishes a catalog for free....
I gather Scientific American has already reviewed it, saying, "It's less painless than a lobotomy and twice as effective!"
Originally, I understand she was going to entitle it, "Going Brogue" so as to garner the Irish vote in her next futile attempt at the presidency. However, when she checked with her father and found out "Palin" is not an Irish name she gave that up.
BTW, the first 1.5 million purchasers of her book will find a special coupon at the end of the book whereby Sarah personally invites them to invest in her new Nigerian company. It appears a former prince of Nigeria left her over $5 million in a bank account and all she needs to do is raise $400,000 to get the money released after which she will share it with all the people who subscribe money to the fund. For a $50 investment, for instance, she guarantees the subscriber will receive back at least $10. Those investing even greater sums may see as much as $25 coming back to them for every $1000 they send in.
She figures she can raise at least 1.5 million subscribers.
And in the final chapter she also invites readers to join her blog. All they have to do is email their name, address, SSN, bank account and charge card account numbers along with passwords. In return, she will send them OVER THE INTERNET AND FOR ALMOST FREE!...JPEGs of her as she gives speeches in the Bahamas, Rio de Janiero, the French Riviera, Gstaad, and other locations of vital political importance.
Dobie: You didn't think that there were 1.5 million republicans that could read? I don't think there are 1.5 million democrats that can read. Heck...... congress can't even read a bill before they pass it. Go Sarah Palin! Sarah Palin in 2012!
I doubt that anyone likes Sarah Palin less than I do, but for the love of Christ, dobieman, give it a rest.
However, I was disappointed she was not able to get the first ghostwriter she had in mind: Dr. Seuss.
(And if TAC can't come up with something using that as inspiration......)
(To get that thread started:
Sarah describing why she accepted all that stimulus money after saying she wouldn't.....
"I do not like green eggs and ham. I do not like them, Sean. I like green pork, though, on a fork or on a pike or on a bike or on a hike or I'm naming my next kid 'Trike'!")
dobieman
" My wife and I, are wondering Are you on any medication while posting"?
Sorry, Babylon...but Sarah is the muse that inspire me. *Laugh*
Okay...ya'll can have the thread back. Enjoy!
(Geezum, jmail...I've seen better retorts in a high school chemistry lab! C'mon...even a Palinista should be able to do better than that! Or...maybe not...)
BABYLON - thanks for the first genuine laugh I have had all day
Sorry, mr_one_time...this is just a natural high brought on by the vindication of what I said some time ago in that I was going to restrain myself from posting about Sarah until she did something really idiotic again. That was said in the sure knowledge she would and, by golly!, she's gone and done it sooner than I would have thought possible.
(Whoops...I left the "s" off "inspires" in that one posting.)(That's what happens when you don't have someone writing for you, paid for by a publisher. Sigh...)
UGH, Sarah Palin makes me sick, she is an embarrassment to Alaskan women everywhere and women in general for that matter. I can't wait until her 15 minutes of fame is over.It is a simple fact that her book wont be worth the paper it's printed on. And a movie too, what a joke!Why does this woman have such a following, some people are calling her a role model even. What for? She is a quitter, plain and simple and a bad sport as well. I am so happy to have her out of office, she never wanted to be our Governor anyways and I know a large majority of people who didn't want her either. I really do hope the quitter runs for president in 2012 but only to give the other candidates a better chance. You really would have to be an idiot to want that sorry excuse for a woman to be our first female president. We can do a whole lot better. A vote for Sarah in 2012 is a vote for the end of the world as we know it.Hey maybe that's what that 2012 Mayan dooms day prophecy is about. HAHAHA
Dobie! Shame on you; picking on a cripple.
Where is the Anchorage witch?
Quick file an ethics complaint!
Sarah is making some money to "Field Dress Donkeys"
Go Sarah Go.. Give them Democrats a case of Palin-osis;
for their rude halitosis and Tina Fay.
DITTO, dobie, DITTO on your last post! LOLest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
doobie - I think what you refer to as a "natural high" for you is actually just residual THC in your blood. Based on the amount of weed that you have smoked in your life, you will probably always have a "natural high".
Love it dobieman! You're on a roll.
Hey Dobie..... I wonder if I buy a copy if it will repell you? Should that be the case...... everyone on here needs to buy one. Sadly though...... I know it wont work.
Lol, all this shows is that her flock of sheeple are obsessed.
There will be so many of these books that get printed...but not bought, that people will be using them to keep warm this winter.
I'll buy a copy to keep Rush "vicodin" Limburgers and Bill "sexual harrasment" O'Reillys books company, above the toilet.
why didn't she call it "Going Maverick"?
So, the point of this article is that Palin's book is going to do well. There is a lot of anger and frustration in this country right now and if she can channel it she will do well. Normally I don't read political books but I will have to make an exception for this one. The only intelligent question to ask at this point is will it live up to it's hype? I hope so and some here hope that it won't. If it bombs then oh well. If it rocks, and it will, then good.
Nov. 17 you say? That gives the left some time to sweat. I wonder if there will be runs on book stores and people camping out overnight to be the first to get it? Arctic Cat could give away a free copy with every snow go.
I kind of figured dobie was going thru withdrawals. He just needed another Palin post to get his fix. There, there dobie, don't overdo yourself now. Your head might explode. Er, nevermind...
She didn't finish the book even though it's being released.
Who cares! She's an idiot out for the almighty dollar. Maybe she conferred with her witch doctor on the hard words. Money before State, before her family, before all else. She has no future except as a Jerry Springer freak.
I'd like a copy of that book just to use as paper to potty train my puppy. It'd be worth the money spent to see a big steamer hit her right in the face.
God knows its already covered with egg.
I'm always amused to hear those who swallowed "Hope & Change" hook, line, and sinker accuse Gov. Palin of being "stupid".
Hmm. . . let's see . . .
You guys: Internet trolls
Her: Influential politician, best-selling author, potential presidential candidate . . . .
I think some of you may have your assessment of her intelligence vs. yours just a bit backwards.
Are you kidding me, Tom??
Palin doesn't even have a position on zupdog.
The person who QUIT the position of governor of Alaska- Sarah Palin, is simply exploiting the hysteria she has caused with her right wing drivel. Rightly so, nothing wrong with a person capitalizing on their fifteen.
Will someone please tell me what she has done that is so profound and glorious? (Besides losing an election and quitting her job.)
Not everybody is impressed with money, palinites. Does getting a book deal really qualify her for the presidency in thy ignorant sheeples minds?
OP:
asphictersayswhat
Touche', Tom.
;))
No posts from dobieman since 3:30. He must have climaxed.
DipS***- What do you mean by "climaxed"?
LostAlaskan99712-
I merely meant that he had exhausted his humor routine. He was on a roll. Really going at it, huffing and puffing, getting all excited. Then poof! It was over. You know, how a movie or a book has a climax scene. Only the movie or book then winds down gently, doesn't just disappear.
Why? What did you think that I meant?
This proves it takes a moron to read another moron's book. Right wings nuts will follow Palin off of a cliff.
mountainstates 9/30/2009, 7:11 p.m. Suggest removal This proves it takes a moron to read another moron's book. Right wings nuts will follow Palin off of a cliff.
................................
Can change the word 'right' to 'left' and 'Palin' to 'Osama' and still tell the truth.
You and I both know what you meant, Dipstick, don't try and be coy.
That's the problem with you people- you fool nobody else but YOURSELVES.
Who's "Osama"?
Palin Rules Obama Drools!
Fascinating. I'm pleased to see her book selling so well. I own stock in Harper Collins. ;)
This will also be a boost for the timber/paper and ink companies, as well as printers and bookstores across the country.
I won't be buying a copy myself, of course. There will be plenty lying around the Transfer Sites come January.
There are two Osamas. One of them is who lives in this country but had mentors who hated this country, and one of his mentors even tried to blow up the pentagon and proud of it, while his other mentor totally hates this country, and Osama was with him for 20 years? And other Osama you already know about.
Yay Sarah!!
kwigster05 - gad, give it a rest.
Why does this become an Obama bashing party for you?
Wow - great comeback! And wow - you believe all
the rightwing lies! And wow - instant deflection
from the Sarah topic! And total disrespect
for the President of the United States!
Way to go!
(Now you can tell me that I need to give it a rest . . .)
Why does this have to become a Mrs Palin bashing party? And wow - you believe all of the leftwing lies! And wow - instant deflection of the Obama topic! And total disrespect for a woman!
Way to go!
The topic of the article is "Sarah", not Obama.
b bu but OBAMA!!!....won the presidency fair and square.
President Barack Hussein Obama > FORMER Gvnr. Sarah Louise Palin.
The topic of the article is "Palins book already a best seller" , not about how much hate and fear the leftwing socialist can spew at the mere mention of her name.
Perhaps if the AP and the Newsminer covered President Obama's dealings with ACORN, Van Jones, Afghanistan, the safe school czar, Iran or any number of topics. Well I suppose we will see a nice piece of 'investigative journalism" on how he single handedly brought the Olympics to Chicago.
bb but BUSH!!!!....won the presidency fair and square (except not with ACORN's help)
FORMER Community Organizer/ACORN Lawyer - Barack Hussein Obama
FORMER Senator (quitter) - Barack Hussein Obama
FORMER autobiographer (writer)- Barack Hussein Obama
CURRENT President - Barack Hussein Obama
Former Mayor - Sarah Louise Palin
Former Governor (quitter) - Sarah Louise Palin
CURRENT autobiographer (writer) - Sarah Louise Palin
FUTURE President - Sarah Louise Palin
It's like they are twins!
I think Doobie is lighting up the Hooka to get his second wind.
If anyone demonstrates left wing fruitcake...its Doobie.
Power, I've got to disagree there. I think CurtJ has that one locked up good.
Dobie's pretty close, though.
Larry, you forgot a few thing. I agree with you, especially after all the liberals just ignored the latest corruption with them and it took them days to finally go against them. Larry, forgot to mention:
FORMER mentee of Jeremiah Wright- Barack Hussein Obama
FORMER friend of Bill Ayers- Barack Hussein Obama
Now you can tell me I need to give it a rest.
What? Obama's a great president. He runs his current office like he did his last one...always campaigning for the next election, and leaving all the decision making up to everyone else. He doesn't have to worry about blaming others for his bad decisions, because he doesn't make any decisions. That's left to Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid.
You want leadership? Despite literally DOZENS of his speeches on healthcare, he can't even get all Democrats on board, let alone any conservatives. How do the American people feel? ABC News/Washington Post's poll after Obama's last big speech on the matter showed:
Split on Obama's handling of health care: 48-48 (46-50 August 17)
Support Obama's health care reforms: 46-48 (45-50 August 17)
President Obama's job approval is at 54 (57 August 17)
Deficit: 65% think health care reform will make it worse
Medicare: 56% of seniors think it will weaken Medicare
On the crucial "what's in it for me?" question, twice as many Americans (32-16) think it will make their own care worse, twice as many (40-20) think it will increase their costs, and more than three times as many (37-11) think it will hurt their coverage.

How's that for the great orator?
hey kwig, you forgot
Bush- Lost the popular vote, conservative Supreme Court blocked a valid recount request on key state for Electoral College win.
yeah, you can give it a rest.
mwm... you forgot that Bush didn't use ACORN
I'm glad she had someone help her write it.
OMG! some people paid by the signature faked some! When there is any evidence that any of those fakes were used to actually vote, I'll be concerned. Until then...
"Who's 'Osama'?"
He's someone else who hates America...
Sarah has 7 million reasons to leave you bed wetters behind. Let's see, SARAH 2012 kinda sums this up.
I should add that some of you bed wetters double as snivelers and I think you should collectively write a book about your troubled lives,...should be a snoozer bound for the south end of an outhouse.
SARAH 2012!!!
Did I mention,.....GO SARAH 2012!!!
A best seller?.....really?....SARAH 2012!!
Ouch BOB,....help me out here,.....number one you say,....SARAH 2012!!
I hope you are not surprised, and or hurt,....SARAH 2012!!
Sarah! Sarah! Sarah! Sarah will defeat the liberals in 2012! Go Palin! The liberals may hate you, but thats only because they fear you. They know you are what America needs!
Hey Oh_please, this proves NOTHING, except Americans are dumber than I ever gave them credit for. The thought of her being President is scarier than Hillary being President, for sure!
I think you better check you sarcasm detector, Muckraker. It seems to be broken.
Did doobie hyperventilate yesterday afternoon. Someone needs to check on him. What bar does he hang out in?
Blue Loon maybe?
One thing is for sure. Articles about Palin do not stimulate intellectual debate. And that is surprising considering that most liberals consider themselves to be intellectuals. Well, that just validates my theory that liberals are driven be emotions.
So, right now Godbama is at the Olympic headquarters begging them to give Chicago the big show in 2016. Won't that cap his glorious rein of power nicely. To bad about that young man, the 16 year old honors student, getting beaten to death by Godbama's supporters. The poor kid must have been wearing a Palin pin or something. I hope the Olympic people don't see that video.
Americans are dumb? Well.... I suppose you are actually correct. Look who we voted into office. A liberal socialist. But luckily.... he would not make it in anther 4 years. I think America is starting to get her taste of Liberalism. Palin in 2012!
Is that libel or a lame attempt at humor, Artie?

Geez, how many kids does that woman have?
I think dobieman is now safely ensconced on the fourth floor at FMH. And I believe his presence there is one of the reasons that Mike Kelly is trying to block universal health care. Can't blame him I guess. There's only so much that the government can afford to pay for.
She probably meant to title her book Going Wrong but forgot to hit spell check.
Go ahead, give your money to someone who gets bankrolled from Commie's, ill gotten gains while palling around with the Chinese

A teacher asked her 6th grade class how many of them were Obama fans. Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, all the kids raised their hands except for little Johnny. The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different.
Little Johnny said, 'Because I'm not an Obama fan.'
The teacher asked, 'Why aren't you an Obama fan?'
Johnny said, 'Because I'm a Republican.'
The teacher asked him why he's a Republican.
Little Johnny answered, 'Well, my Mom's a Republican and my Dad's a Republican, so I'm a Republican.'
Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, 'If your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, what would that make you?'
With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, 'That would make me an Obama fan.
Palin is so excited over herself I bet she has nightmares that the end is near!
kwigster, your joke was cut-and-pasted directly from the internet. Like much of Palin's book, I expect.
You go Sarah. Laugh all the way to the bank!!!!!!!! I love it.
Not once do I see any of the Palin haters criticize her on political issues. Still waiting for one in this article.
kwigster05 - Palin opinion isn't worthy of any political issue, she has to be schooled and we just aren't that into her!
That's right AK. She has to be schooled cause she hasn't been schooled yet on any of the issues. LOL
Oh! I've got one for you, kwigster!
SHE QUIT HER JOB BEFORE IT WAS COMPLETED!
Why Americans will never elect a quitter like Palin to the office of the presidency:

There IS one event she excels at, however:
http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/5482/iq...
I think she's thinks there's a election this November!!
It was the best choice out there, otherwise libs like you would've used up all our taxpaying money on BOGUS ethics complaints. Libs would've rather had her in waste money? Sheesh.
Is it talent, or her recent exposure (Thanks to John McCain) that made her publishers think a book 'written' by her would sell?........think about it
I guarantee the publishers will print no more than the 1.5 million copies already printed, y'all will see- once people crack those babies open and get a few pages into them they will realize that they will be worth more as a sleep aid, after they've restocked the bargain bins with them. Wait and see......
Looks like I was right too- you people really do think a failed V.P. campaign, failed governorship and ONE measly book deal that MIGHT sell more than 1.5 million copies is all a person needs to be president. Obama has much, much more political experience, of course.
Howard Stern has sold more than 6 million copies of the two books he has written, so how is "Sarahs" 1.5 mil deal supposed to be impressive? and/or how does it qualify her to be president? Howard Stern 2012!!!
Bababooey 2012!!!
LostAlaskan99712: "Obama has much, much more political experience, of course."
For instance?
Wait I remember LostAlaskan, he campaigned for 2 years. Lots of experience.
It was the best choice out there, otherwise libs like you would've used up all our taxpaying money on BOGUS ethics complaints. Libs would've rather had her in waste money?
------------------------
Rrrrriiiiiiiight.... :)
If Sarah can't handle the heat being the little ol' governor of Alaska she sure as hell can't handle the heat in DC. Americans know that.
Don't get me wrong! I'm 100 percent behind her running for president. Hell, I'd probably donate money to her campaign as it would allow her to keep up her entertaining wackiness a little longer!
It's also fun to watch you guys furtively clinging to the dream...
Libs still can't figure out a way to criticize her in political issues.
http://img42.imageshack.us/img42/6230/wt...
Capitolism is a wonderful thing, Sarah has proven that you can turn lemons into lemonaid,....how wonderful it will be to have a president with such a great outlook on life and believes in the greatness of America. SARAH 2012!!
"Sarah has proven that you can turn lemons into lemonaid,...."
Fantastic, were all saved.
Now, if she can just teach her flock how to spell......
Libs still fail to bring up a serious political issue.
Godbama's flock is, was, well represented by ACORN and the ACLU. The Palin crowd has the NRA, the NFL, and the USMC.
I can spell God, country, and family.
Can you spell child prostitution and NAMBLA? Well can you, punk.
Oh, in response to twigsters lame attempt:
"LostAlaskan99712: "Obama has much, much more political experience, of course." .......For instance?"
Well, Obama has a law degree from Harvard, as opposed to Palins B.S. in journalism and he never QUIT halfway through a term in a major office.
(It took Palin something like six years at five different colleges to "earn" that measly bachelors degree, btw. She couldn't last one semester at one school for years, just like she couldn't last one term as governor. Coincidence? I think not, once a quitter- ALWAYS a quitter.)
"Can you spell child prostitution and NAMBLA? Well can you, punk."
Aaaand out of left field it's roadtrip!
Seriously, can you really explain to me what "child prostitution and NAMBLA" have to with anything that's been discussed so far? Weird.
How about sex offenders in the clergy and the FLDS?
You joke that we can't spell, and in my case you are correct. I joke that your side is full of pervs. That's really something about how the left is supporting Polansky. I would mention his crime but we do have to pretend that a child might be reading this.
So does "Polansky" represent the "left" any more than Rush 'vicodin' Limburger or Bill 'sexual harassment' O'Reilly represent the "right"?
That door's just gonna keep swingin back and forth all night......
Try staying on topic (you might look a little less foolish), goodnight.
"(you might look a little less foolish)" Right, I would not want to look foolish by saying something like, "Now, if she can just teach her flock how to spell......". And after the Palin hater Letterman just admitted to womanising and Godbama's admitted cock snorting your examples of bad behavior seem a little tame. The Polanski supporters are a who's who of Hollywood Obama loving liberals.
Face it, Polanski = Streisand = Clinton = ACORN = Obama.
Goodnight eh?

Absolutely right. He never QUIT but he sure voted present for the last in his 3rd and 4th year, and still campaigning today for 2010 and 2012 as president. SHEESH.
roadtrip, you forgot Van Jones the communist which makes:
Obama=Jones=North Korea
You also for 20 years with Jeremiah Wright which makes:
Obama=Wright=God damn America
also forgot Bill Ayers which makes:
Obama=Ayers=unrepentant terrorist
Lost.....how much money was it she got for the Book deal?
by the way I see Palin was right again.........Letterman is a dirty old man.
NotPc -- You are correct about Palin vs Letterman. Letterman abused his position of power and celebrity for sexual exploitation of his staffers. He is a weak, weak man.
roadtrip 10/1/2009, 11:22 p.m.Suggest removal "(you might look a little less foolish)" Right, I would not want to look foolish by saying something like, "Now, if she can just teach her flock how to spell......". And after the Palin hater Letterman just admitted to womanising and Godbama's admitted cock snorting your examples of bad behavior seem a little tame. The Polanski supporters are a who's who of Hollywood Obama loving liberals.
Face it, Polanski = Streisand = Clinton = ACORN = Obama.
Goodnight eh?
Admitted WHAT snorting?? Good grief, where's YOUR mind at?????????
lol, roadie....he snorts that, too?

-------------------
You got that right, Junior! Letterman's sleazy enough to hang out with Newt Gingrich and John Kyl!
Little Freudian slip for you there, roadie? ;)
How many Freudians does it take to change a penis, uh..I mean lightbulb?
Lol, just as I thought- nothing but cheap, schoolyard insults and phallic references. You boys are as clueless as your ridiculous deity.
I love how you repubs will jump all over a person for "not staying on topic", but as soon as it fits your purposes y'all do exactly the same.
What has she offered the American people besides "I'm Joe Six Pack"?
(That's really the bottom line, if "Sarah" were an overweight black woman most of you wouldn't even think of supporting her, even if the "ideals" and speeches were exactly the same. Most of you voted for her looks.)
The term "former governor" loosely applies as she didn't even make it halfway through one term before quitting. Walking out on an important job like that is very telling about a person, she will never be trusted with such an important position again. Mark my words- she will remain a "civilian politician" and never hold a public office again. Good riddance.
Lost...just as I drink whenever CurtJ says his two magic phrases, I'm going to now take a shot every time you lose credibility in your argument by being condescending.
Bring it! (and don't make me go retroactive!)
Ugh, well if I go down some of you are going down with me.
Stupid spell checker.
"Lost.....how much money was it she got for the Book deal?"
Probably not enough, in her mind. I'm sure it's the most money she's ever made at one time anyway, she must be on cloud nine about now, thinking of all those digits on her bank statement...
Too bad money isn't everything, obviously, a six figure wardrobe didn't win her the White House. Just like whatever money she's duped the publishing company for isn't going to buy her the presidency in 2012.
Tuna, at least I can stay on topic. And I'm sorry but you don't determine "credibility" here, or anywhere else for that matter.
(That doesn't mean I don't enjoy watching you make an a** of yourself, over and over, along with your little digital buddies. Ignorance is bliss?)
You guys didn't graduate high school, did you?
(The level of immaturity on y'alls posts is very revealing.)
btw, Tuna- "girls" take shots.
If you were really cool you'd just chug from the bottle till it's gone.
(Nothing is more impressive than drinking large amounts of alcohol.)
Once again, liberals fail to criticize her on serious political issues. Was hoping I'd at least see one over night. YAWN!!
And, Junior?
Based on your loathing for Letterman's extracurricular activities, I'm waiting for you to call for John Ensign's immediate resignation. Remember him? The Republican senator who was cheating on his wife with a staffer and being blackmailed?
Once again, liberals fail to criticize her on serious political issues.
------------------------------
When Palin actually starts broaching serious political issues, maybe someone will debate her.
Just read that Ensign was a Promise Keeper. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA.
"The level of immaturity on y'alls posts is very revealing."
DRINK!
Still waiting for comment written from somebody mature!
NO, dobieman, don't rest you are too funny. very clever and right on. perhaps if you were palin's "co" writer i might have bought a (used) copy.
I love it the liberals have made Sarah a millionaire! I guess that will pay off her legal fees now. Way to go liberals keeping her in the Lime Light you guys are great!
"I suspect some seeing this article might confuse quantity for quality.

Dobieman... Thank you SO much! I haven't laughed like that over these posts in a while.

Dobieman considers himself a wit. I would agree that he is half right.
So many liars here . I wonder if this a cross section of Fairbanks ?
Oh_please one question??????Does imageshack place a limit on how much you can download per day?If so you must be getting near your limit.
Dobie, I enjoyed your rant. I thought it was hilarious, especially when "doobie obsessed" Power_of_the_O, became so irate when you wouldn't answer him.
The Whine -- "I'm waiting for you to call for John Ensign's immediate resignation."
Have I called for Letterman's immediate resignation? No. But clearly you are not a happy little girl, therefore, if you will stop your whining, I will call for (buh, buh, buh, but...) John Ensign's immediate resignation.
I'm most likely "not paying attention", but who is John Ensign?
Is he the guy that made the undercover videos of ACORN supporting child prostitution? Or maybe he is the guy who told Obama that it would be a good idea for him to go to Copenhagen. No, wait, he is the dude who tried to blackmail Letterman.
Eh.
I'll just wait for the book-on-tape version.
Palin was upfront about using the services of a ghostwriter, Obama used a bomb throwing communist terrorist named William Ayers to ghost write his book and will not admit it.......
After 7 grueling months of the ongoing disaster of the Great Leader and his "czars", a best selling book by Palin is great news.
Thank you roadtrip. The names I sometimes don't remember "possibly Alzheimer's". But I do remember the incident.
It looks like John Ensign is a senator who Bill Clintoned one of his staffers wives and then bent the rules to help the guy out after he quit. Rod Sterling would be proud of this one.
Didn't learn much from this article. I always knew there are a lot of stupid people out there.
Hey, I represent that remark.

--------------------
It's OK, Junior. I just enjoy watching you display your selective 'outrage'.
If someone is willing to loan or give me a copy of "Going Rogue" I'm willing to withhold judgement until I've actually read it...or am I not getting into the spirit of this errr... discussion?
For the Sarah Haters
There was once was a Sarah named Palin
who found her polytiks failin'
with a wink and a look
and a ghostwritten book
she got rich from a tome about bailin'
For the Sarah Lovers
There was once was a Sarah named Palin
who got sick of the liberals railin'
with a plan in her hand
and support from her man
she showed how the US could quit failing
LOL thanks for the laughs, good night.
