Remember Sarah Palin, the briefly famous wingnut lady who can’t speak, can’t read and can’t even remember the name of a single newspaper she pretends to read every day? Yeah, she’s getting millions of dollars from HarperCollins to write her “memoirs.” Jesus. She hired a lawyer last year (after she lost the election for McCain) to go after an $11 million advance.
The Anchorage Daily News reports:
She called that figure “laughable” in January but has never provided another. Palin said she’d give a portion of the book money to charities, although she hasn’t decided how much or which ones.
This snowbilly grifter is the biggest con artist in American History.

“Palin said she’d give a portion of the book money to charities, although she hasn’t decided how much or which ones.”
The American Society for the Advancement of Single Teenage Daughters of Governors, and the Society for Moose-Killin’.
I predict that a few GOP and fundie groups will buy copies to give as gifts. The rest will sit around bookstores and warehouses, being discounted more and more, until they are sent to be turned into pulp.
that picture made me throw up in my mouth a little.
Agghh- Jesus christ!! Todd actually puts his cock in that thing?
Ha, no charity in the world is gonna see a dime of that money, unless it’s the “Fuck You, All Mine Palin Fund”. You know what this means, though: BOOK TOUR! I await her interviews on Jon Stewart, Oprah & the View.
I was going to compliment the picture–really speaks to her essential character.
Harper Collins “won” the bidding. Regnery must really be running short of cash.
[re=315120]JMP[/re]: That should be Single Teenage Mother Daughters of Governors, obviously.
[re=315124]Terry[/re]: The publisher will probably also spend several months flogging the book on Wonkette, not getting irony.
I heard that Skinamax optioned it.
[re=315125]Captain McAwesome[/re]:
…and yet, the guys here were calling her the GILF.
Palin is to great literature what Liberace was to pumping iron.
I wonder what kind of cut Greta’s husband gets?
Foreward by Tonya Harding.

“There have been so many things written and said through mainstream media that have not been accurate, and it will be nice through an unfiltered forum to get to speak truthfully about who we are and what we stand for and what Alaska is all about,” Palin said.
And I cannot goddamn wait until Rumsfeld writes his memoirs either.
So, where do you propose the book will be filed?
Humor? Science Fiction? Occult? (Hey, you can’t call the same-old-shit ‘New Age.’)
Hmmm. Not so sure I want my nutz resting on her chin now.
Ken, got any close-ups of Jessica Alba’s lips to make us all feel a bit better?
[re=315132]Terry[/re]: That was when they had only seen B&W “Sarah Barracuda” basketball picture.
If they had seen the one at the top of this page GILF would have stood for Gross Images Lacking Feces.
Yeah, she’s getting millions of dollars from HarperCollins to write her “memoirs.”
Correction: She’s getting millions of dollars to drive several ghost writers to a hot bath and a few messy minutes with a razor.
God, looks like she could create diamonds between those lips.
Those are the upper lips, right?
I look forward to reading about her college years, and how tough it was finding a GOOD school to get into.
How do you author a book when you don’t do teh reedin.

Finally – a jeebus-luvin jizz twizzlin beauty queen flunky is here to tell me what Alaska is all about. Can’t fucking wait.
[re=315132]Terry[/re]: Yeah, but who said anything about kissing her?
[re=315124]Terry[/re]: It’s strictly Kindle. As in fire-starter.
What happened to the reality show? Did I miss it?
[re=315151]Hominidx[/re]: “God, looks like she could create diamonds between those lips.”
Greta was overheard bragging how the tip of Todd’s cock was the hardest element she’d ever come across (or on).

Money is power, right? So if she gets to roll around in literally millions of dollar bills does she really need to run for another office? I mean, millionaires don’t have to read shit and no one gives a good goddamn.

weird. she’s a very attractive woman (yes, she is) and that close-up captures it all:
small minded,
mean
repressed
artificial
tense
weird.
sigh, I feel the need to point out a Very Important Fact: Harper Collins is owned by News Corp, which is also Fox News. Expect a glowing forward by Greta, and afterward by Hannity, and maybe the book jacket will be written by Satan.
Remember that West Virginia preacher who won $100 million or so in lottery, only to end up with multiple DUIs and car crashes, ripped off by pole dancers, hookers, lost his wife,had a daughter and nephew overdose and die, and other generally hillbilly mayhem?

Okay, that was funny. I’m big enough to admit it.
No moooing around.
I think Palin is hot. And Malkin too.
But I do not like the idea of ‘hate f**ks’ I do not understand them.
I think it might be a sign that I like to be degraded.
I hope it is “OK” to express deep secrets like that at a family sex gossip blog like this.
Except, if it is true that she tatooed her lips for permanent lipstick, then forget it.
I wouldn’t like to be THAT degraded, even if it is true that I do like to be degraded.
That would be too much degradation
Even for a family sex-news blog like this one here.
Sarah Palin. Book.
I can’t even put them in the same sentence.
I would betcha a dime bag o’ Wasilla Meth that her general follower doesn’t read much beyond the back of the SoftScrub while taking a shit. Oh, while they may claim the the jebus bible is the only book worth reading, they have yet to actually turn a page of it, except for the back part where they write in relative’s name when the kettle explodes.
Oh I so wish Wonkette did photoshop contests… I very much want to design the cover to her book.

“Memoirs of a Valley Girl” could be the title or the “Witch of Wasilla” After this big book deal, then maybe she can buy those clothes from the RNC and pay her own legal fees. Can’t imagine many Americans are going to contribute to her legal fund after this news. She has become the Britney Spears of politics. I hope she gets enough money from this deal to retire and stay in Alaska. I’m hoping her 15 seconds of fame are drawing to a close soon.

This is why the publishing industry deserves its imminent death.
If only McCain had chosen Lieberman, we would have been spared this grifter cunt. I guess I have another thing to add to my “Things I Can Legitimately Blame Joe Lieberman For” list.
I assume Meghan McCain will be the ghost writer.
[re=315238]obfuscator[/re]: I thought that was Stephen King?
I predict a musical in about 2035 entitled “Don’t Cry for Me, Alaska.” Andrew Lloyd Webber will be taken out of cryogenic storage to write the book and music. A reanimated Madonna will star. It’ll be huge.
Typical Republican reaction:
Wow! Sarah Palin is writing a book??? Who would know, she’s beautiful AND brainy!
[re=315241]Custerwolf[/re]: I’d read that. I wouldn’t buy it, but I’d read it whilst loitering at Barnes & Nobles.
This isn’t original, only true. My sex drive screamed “Red alert! Mental fellatio image approaching!” My penis, however, somehow sucked itself up into my stomach in response. And then the image hit me and I understood why. Can we not do this thing with the picture again? K, thx.
[re=315213]Custerwolf[/re]: With nothing between us but two glasses of whiskey and a copy of “Dreams of My Father.” You had me at Chapter 1.

So is this some kind of back door way of making illegal campaign contributions or something. It can’t be because they think they’ll make a profit. You can’t tell me any of these multi-million dollar wingnut tirades they’ve published over the last 8 years has ever cleared enough to cover the cost of the ink to print it. They should save themselves counter space and just unpack the books directly into the .25 mark down bin.

Chapter 12: The Importance of Religion at Home
People ask me how was I able to deal with Bristol telling me she was pregnant. I won’t deny that it was a hard blow, but I knew that our religion would get us through it. Call me crazy, but Bristol’s and Levi’s deep religious beliefs let me know everything would be all right. I remember how, before the pregnancy, Bristol and Levi would pray together in her room. “Oh God!, Oh God! Oh God!” she would scream as the spirit overwhelmed her, followed by her talking in tongues. They would also discuss politics together, as the first time I ever heard “Drill, Baby, Drill!” was when Bristol shouted it from her room.

[re=315124]Terry[/re]: Anyone remember Newt Gingrich’s novel, 1942? It earned him a multi-million dollar advance from one of Rupert Murdoch’s tame publishers. In fact, it was a lightly disguised bribe, for allowing M. to own more than one TV station in a city. Perhaps Palin’s book is hiding a bribe as well. On the other hand, maybe it’s a big joke, like the memoirs of Morris the Cat.

“And I cannot goddamn wait until Rumsfeld writes his memoirs either.”
I’m waiting for something like Procopius’ _Secret History_, full of stories of how Bush was really a demon, who carried his head under his arm, late at night, and what a harlot Condi was, wishing for a 4th “portal for emissaries of cupid,” so that she could entertain 4 admirers at once, instead of only 3.

Loose lips sink ships.

[re=315296]zhubajie[/re]: It’s true. The churches will sell copies from a table in the back of the parish hall (coffee room). You know — where they sell the DVDs of pastor’s best sermons and the copies of the LaHaye books. In the pastor’s post-sermon wrap-up remarks, everyone will be very strongly urged to get a few copies.
And still the Lord tarries, failing to show up with his whip, to teach the Neopharisees the same lesson he taught their philosophical forebears.
Those lips are the spitting image of Nurse Ratched. No shit.
Stop freaking me out.
Perhaps the clearest evidence that the Christians are right, and the World is fallen.
I really don’t get the publishing industry throwing tons of $$$ at people like her. Number one, the demographic that likes Palin doesn’t like reading anyway. Who will buy this except for a handful of people? There are many great writers out there who are so much more talented than her, and they just get shafted by deals like this.
I am now officially organizing a local party where we will get smashed and take turns reading aloud from this book while other partygoers act it out for the edification of all. With props. I hope to make it a yearly event, if the fire department and paramedics say I can.

It hurts my heart that a single other sentence of Snowbilly Methqueen’s (ghost writer’s) words will be immortalized on paper, much less a book. I weep in shame before posterity, on behalf of our dark times.

Also, her base doesn’t read any more than she does. It’s organizing an alpine skiing trip in Kansas.

I love encountering wingnut libraries – that one shelf of books in the family room with the Left Behind series, The Purpose Driven Life, various Chicken Soup Soul remedies, the Rise and Fall of the Third Reich (always there) and the Living Bible. I’ll probably see Palin’s book on shelves like that in the future. That is, if this book ever gets written. This is Palin after all. $5 says that the next time we hear about this, she’ll be firing yet another ghost writer and taking her legal disputes with HarperCollins over her advance public with a diatribe about the socialist media.
Hmmm, that pic needs bukkake…

That’ll keep it at a George W. Bush reading level.
