Barack Obama’s Lawyer To Help Sarah Palin Get Huge Book Deal

by Jim Newell  4:07 pm January 22, 2009

Sarah Palin made it very clear that when the campaign was over and she had lost, she would go back to Alaska, which, in her words, is “the state that I am the executive of,” and use her role in this capacity to make the state better. Since returning, she has helped Alaska by holding interviews with every wingnut and cable news anchor willing to talk to her about how nothing was her fault during the campaign. Although these gubernatorial leadership efforts have already made Alaska the most respectable place on Earth, Palin is not one to rest, and now she will help her state even more by devoting all of her time towards shopping a multi-million-dollar book deal.

The book will chronicle her important state reform record, including the chapters “Nicolle Wallace Was Full of Shit,” “Steve Schmidt Tried to Sabotage My Image,” and “Katie Couric, I Will Literally Kill You Tomorrow.” The rest will be about how mean Andrew Sullivan is. It will be dedicated to Kathryn Jean Lopez and written in nail polish.

And who is she paying to write it?

barrysislamicrepublic January 22, 2009 at 4:11 pm

My favorite chapter however, is the one which acts a cautionary tale to rednecks who have won the lottery like she did: take as much free shit as possible. (at least 150K of free shit)

Maybe the book will include some good turkey recipes

So her only problem is that none of her supporters can read…?

AnnieGetYourFun January 22, 2009 at 4:15 pm

If only her fans were literate, this would be a really good idea.

springfield_meltdown January 22, 2009 at 4:18 pm

I’m looking forward to the chapter on education, especially her thoughts on elitist high school and college educations.

MoodProcessor January 22, 2009 at 4:18 pm

Additional chapters:

“Satin Boxers Make the Man”
“Hey, Can I Borrow Your Towel”
“Obstinate Abstinence”
“The Rearing of the Head of the Liberal Media”
and, the Epilogue – “Also”

ThreeFirstNames January 22, 2009 at 4:19 pm

And of course Appendix B, detailing the efficient level of meth production in rural municipalities. Also.

jagorev January 22, 2009 at 4:19 pm

She only wants $11 million for her book? But that’s only, like, 60 shopping sprees! What’s she going to do after the money runs out early in 2010?

norbizness January 22, 2009 at 4:19 pm

Your majesty/Sarah Palin is like a dose of clap. Before you/she arrive(s) is pleasure, and after is a pain in the dong.

Jukesgrrl January 22, 2009 at 4:20 pm

All executives have household help. Who picks up after the snowchildren while she’s field dressing a moose? Who empties Sarah’s garbage (or do they just let it freeze until spring)? THAT’s who I want a book (Governor Dearest) from.

Doglessliberal January 22, 2009 at 4:21 pm

[re=226003]Jamie Sommers[/re]: that would be an improvement, I bet. And I also bet she bills the State of AK for his fee somehow.

Doglessliberal January 22, 2009 at 4:21 pm

[re=226011]Toomush Infermashun[/re]: ah, picture book! Maybe even with pop-ups!

ella January 22, 2009 at 4:22 pm

[re=226017]springfield_meltdown[/re]: If she devotes a chapter to each of the nothing colleges she went to, that’s half the book right there.

sevenrepeat January 22, 2009 at 4:23 pm

i will only buy it if oprah tells me to buy it; which will mean that the book and it’s author must be fraudulent. also, it must be available for sale at starbucks, also.

GlennBecksFelch January 22, 2009 at 4:25 pm

While I was watching ‘Milk’, the Anita Bryant clips brought to mind Palin, and I can see what gave Limbaugh & Kristol erections for Palin – she’s their second cumming.

ManchuCandidate January 22, 2009 at 4:25 pm

Now we’ve gotten to the attention whore’s ghost written autobiography stage. What’s next? A perfume? Climbing out of a Dogsled without any panties? Or will it be the Playboy pictorial?

Blue Line January 22, 2009 at 4:25 pm

How does she have time to write a book? I imagine reading every single newspaper is time consuming.

I’m sure she will ask for a $4000,00,00,0 advance.

There. Fixed.

She has such pretty hair. Too bad it fills the space where her brain should be.

I hope that whomever ghost writes it, just basically transcribes what she says in her taped recordings and leaves her tale telling as is just for the lulz.

[re=226064]ManchuCandidate[/re]: somehow I see her more in one of those “life comes at you fast” commercials. Is that Nationwide? Or Allstate? She could be deep frying moose parts a la the one with Kevin Federline…with babies crawling around all over the place…crumpled Neiman Marcus bags in the corner. Or she could be burning her Palin 2012 signs to fire the meth lab. Whatever.

Atheist Nun January 22, 2009 at 4:46 pm

Wait… if Palin is writing it, who is she going to blame for taking her quotes out of context when “the media” reveals how stupid she sounds again?

Keep Federline away from her. Put those two in a room and they’ll breed like, uh, Tribbles. The nation will be overrun with stupid babies that have an extremely large sense of entitlement inversely proportional to their talent.

“It was the best of times, it was the times where we’re being impacting with the consumers and those who were predatory lenders, but there’s got to be a long-term, comprehensive solution, you know, it’s going to be a multifaceted solution, and of course with the health care. And the position of the bailout that the taxpayers have been. And job creation. Also.”

Anne Coulter is probably sticking pins in her Palin voodoo doll as we speak.

Once upon a time, I used to think Paris Hilton “writing” a book was the low point of modern American culture. I stand corrected.

You all can scoff: scoff, you scoffers! But when word gets out that there are locker room shots from her high school basketball days, you’ll be rushing down to Borders to put down a deposit.

[re=226153]Tra[/re]: I have had to read many actual language books with real live words in them also since the election just to get the Palinspeak out of my brain, totally. And your post has brought it all back, also, just like the naughty dirty penny that it is with it’s non-Real-American liberal tendencies and beliefs, dontcha know, like the mainstream “gotcha” media where they wonder where I got my underwear while not investigating their, you know, real information about Barack Obama who may or may not even be a citizen of these United States of America! Why didn’t anyone not ask him that? I mean, Hillary brought it up, even! Now I have to read more about the black plague and the Nazis just to, you know, clear out the clutter and lack of clarity which were bad times when real live people were experiencing such a bad time that they had death and major problems also. For the children! And crocheting, also.

I understand that this memoir will actually be a comic book.

ivenson January 22, 2009 at 10:14 pm

Since she’s such a known name, the cover should be just two words…enormous white print on a black background “PALIN”…..”ALSO”.

TeddyS January 22, 2009 at 10:43 pm

It’s this way: Publishers want to make money. A Palin book, even if only contained empty pages, would be snapped up by the millions of morons who voted for her and Walnuts. It’s how Coulter, Hannity, Beck and those other rightwing peabrains make money. Joe the Plumber and Alberto Gonzales must be screwed up to fail landing a wingnutbook deal. The nekkid picture of Sarah would only help sales. And it would find its rightful place beside My Pet Goat in the bush presidential library.

Joey Ratz January 23, 2009 at 1:34 am

KittyLitter January 23, 2009 at 1:56 am

Actually, TeddyS, rightwing fucktards don’t buy books or read them. Rightwing fucktard “think”tanks buy them in bulk to put their authors on the best-seller list and create the myth that anyone cares what they “think.” Right now, if you subscribe to Townhall, Human Events, or join the Conservative Book Club, you will get a “free” copy of A. Hussein Coulter’s latest deuce.
