Okay, all aboard, the next stop of the Sarah Palin’s Preemptive Book Tour will be… the Oprah Winfrey show! The big day is the 16th of November—the book is being released on the the day after—so you should just go ahead and pencil in these important dates. Or you know what, use pen. This is Oprah, alright, not some backwoods three-foodstamps-a-couple picnic with Palin’s constituents that she’d normally just skip out on. It’s Hollywood by way of Chicago, baby—she’ll be there. Also: We shudder to consider what truly horrific thing Oprah must have done in her past that somehow only Meg Stapleton knows about. What is the equivalent, in murders, of writing Going Rogue? [HuffPost]
Considering that Palin also absorbs the political life force of all she touches (where are you John McCain?), I think that the Palin Rogue is perfect.
Sarah must have finally forgiven Oprah for not whoring her show out for Sarah during the election.
Is Palin one of the Lizard People?
I got a feelin’
(whooo-hoooo)
That this Oprah’s gonna be a good show.

Don’t know why O would give Snowbilly this large of a platform since I assume O would like to rip Snowbilly’s arm off & beat her senseless with it.
I can’t imagine the horrible gotcha questions that Oprah might ask poor Sarah. The mind reels.
PLEASE TO HAVE DAILY REMINDERS OF THIS GLORIOUS EVENT
Yaybuls: No more caffeine for you.
Texan Bulldoggette: If Sarah goes full birther, O will do it.
And you get a snow machine, and you get a snow machine, and you get a snow machine, EVERYONE GETS A SNOW MACHINE.
The equivalent in murders of writing Going Rogue is, according to that owl who licks those delicious tootsie pops for marketing research groups…three.
I wonder if we’ll finally get to see her “O” face…
Isn’t Oprah a black?
4tehlulz: O does want to rip Snowbilly’s arm off. But she wants to eat it, not beat Snowbilly senseless with it.
Penis.
Oprah Winfrey presents a story of hope, a testament to the healing power of love, and a celebration of life. Sarah Palin is Celie, in ‘The Color Purple,’ coming soon to a books-a-million near you.
hobospacejunkie: Leave me outta this, you bindlestiff cosmonaut.
November 14 Palin will announce her “no show” because of other “commitments” (urgent taxidermy or something).
Y’all are assuming that Snowbilly will actually show up. It’s not like Oprah didn’t see this coming.
user-of-owls: Fine, but you’re the one with the sweet tooth, not me.
hobospacejunkie: Beak, not tooth! That’s not avian transcendence!
Noodle Salad: No, no, no. Each audience member gets to take home, free, a baby with Down Syndrome.
Also, Oprah would be giving away free copies of Palin’s book, but since Amazon is now selling it for $9, there’s no need.
Those penis people keep e-mailing me too. Make them stop.
This has the potential to be either Oprah’s greatest show or her biggest sell-out moment. It all depends on how she uses this opportunity.
Gumboz1953: Like, have you read the book that Lynn wrote for you?
Who is Oprah Winfrey?
Miss Wasilla is directly responsible for the outpouring of hate directed at the Obamas. During the campaign the Secret Service asked her to back off on inciting the crowds, but she didn’t. And the climate of hate since the election of a Black man, is shocking. I expected some, a lot maybe, but it is much uglier than I imagined, and she is to blame. She let it happen and made it OK for these racist crackers to go full on moron.
How could ANYONE give her airtime unless they ask her about this.
You know who ELSE was on Oprah’s show?!
Apparently, Meg Stapleton found out that Oprah’s weight problem was a result of her addiction to fried kittens. Either that, or Oprah is about to go Katie Couric on Palin’s ass.
ManchuCandidate: or perhaps Palin “Moulin” Rouge, in which she is a young doomed courtesan who never shows up at the appointed place or time.
This will be a great opportunity to re-unite Bristol and Levi - for the baby’s sake, for Jesus’ sake, for abstinence before marriage sake and for ratings sake.
Make sure to lock your ego detectors in a secure, lead-lined box, as this confluence of narcissism is going to be Krakatoa-esque.
Decker: Going “Katie Couric” sounds much tougher than it really was. I believe she asked Snowbilly what she read, what Supreme Court ruling (other than Rowe v. Wade) she disagreed with & when her running mate (Hello!) had actually been a ‘maverick’. None of which Snowbilly could answer & anyone with a beating heart could have made something up and sounded halfway informed. I hope Oprah goes full on Oprah (like when she made James Frey cry)!
give you my “o” face in what respect, oprah?
I hope they get Dr Phil on at the same time. Hilarity will ensue.
Texan Bulldoggette: yeah i hope Oprah does go the James Fry moment.
And will the “O” place one of her little gold stickers on this peice of tripe?
No. But I’ll watch the second time when Palin is asked back to the show and Oprah gets all ‘oh no you di’int” and makes her weepingly admit that her life is a funny lie. Maybe Tom Cruise (DIANEBIKS) will be there.
hope for the first time Oprah will have to ask for Gail to hold her rings , and wig cause she’s about to beat some ass.
Katie Couric didn’t even go Katie Couric on her ass. She thought she was lobbing softballs, but Bible Spice not only struck out, she did a full 360 and fell on her butt.
I don’t expect Oprah to ask her any hard questions, either, but we still might get some good answers.
Oprah? I would have thought Jerry Springer.
It’s a little hard to count while they’re jumping like that, but I don’t think there are anywhere near 9,000 penises there. Sarah’s going to have to up her game if she wants to compete on Oprah.
it’s still better than playing host to jenny “i will spray your children with AIDS” mccarthy
user-of-owls: This question will never get old.
KilgoreTrout_XL: I totally remember that show.
Boy this book’s been rushed to market. Sarah Palin’s half life has been computed by her publisher to be three months, give or take a week. Well, there is hope for the world.
That Blingee’d picture is more disturbing the more I look at it. If I have another drink, maybe I’ll figure out why…
Texan Bulldoggette: Do you think a month gives Sarah enough time to read her own book once through before making it to Oprah? Given how many colleges it took for her to finish a breezy degree, I’m betting her knowledge of the last 40% of the book will be hazy hazy hazy.
bitchincamaro: No.
user-of-owls: hobospacejunkie: Speaking of Bindlestiffs, I’m going to peg hobospacejunkie as Scranton. Amiright?
One things for sho, no matter what happens, all us’ns (flaming liberal Obama worshippers in the church of global warmin’ ) will make hay with the results. Just like her pal Hannity does with whatever the President of the United States does.
Texan Bulldoggette: And that’s the worst joke of all - Couric is a “real journalist,” and Palin was overmatched. I don’t watch Oprah or understand the phenomenon of her career, but I hope she exposes Bible Spice.
It’s like the Wonkette version of the perfect storm. I think this is how the world will end.
I finally got the Going “Rogue” = white hair stripe thing in the Blingee.
Monsieur Grumpe: Or Sir Charles!
Texan Bulldoggette: I was in a sports bar the other night, and they were playing clips from an Oprah episode in which Tyson and Holyfield were shaking hands and making up. If Oprah can allow a specimen like Mike Tyson on her show, she can probably deal with Caribou Barbie.
Then again, I never pretended to understand Oprah.
The big O will shock the nation (with delight) as she announces that every audience member gets a free copy of Palin’s book, a day before relase. Then, she will light the bonfire.
Darkness: You are probably right, though I’m afraid age, infirmity, past addictions or (most likely) my distinct lack of cool prevents me from getting the reference.
hobospacejunkie: The reference should be right up your alley, then. Ehem. James Blish, Cities in Flight. Scranton was the space city that snuck up on other cities and stole their stuff.
College of the Ozarks is selling copies of Sarah Palin’s book autographed by Palin, her wayward husband, all of the children, Levi Johnston, Pat Robertson, Billy Graham and Ernest Angley.
Apparently, Robertson, Graham and Angley, it turns out, all used to date Palin when she was a sportscaster, and all of them are on the Board of Trustees at the College of the Ozarks.
It was Robertson, Graham, Angley and the Palins who drafted the college sex guidelines for the school–as a joke, done during alcohol- and pot- and cocaine-fueled all-night party binges in the “Administrator’s Building” on campus! Students often wondered why they saw scores of Hooter’s girls and local strippers entering the building late at night every weekend.
Robertson, Graham, Angley and the Palins are apparently still holding their secret late-night parties on campus, and they’re all looking forward to a huge “Homecumming” weekend when Palin visits the campus soon!
Also, the book was ghost-written by Ernest Angley.
That’s the real story behind the book and the college.
I am seriously considering taking the day off work, getting myself some popcorn, and delighting in this event. The last time I watched Oprah was the Tom-Cruise-couch-jumping episode, and it was the most brilliant/terrifying hour of television that I have ever seen. I can only hope that Sarah Palin manages to trump it. Will Levi show up as a special guest? Can we organize some Sarah-Palin-does-Oprah bingo?
This will make a fine drinking game.
Snowbilly will probably surround herself with her Human Shield offspring. Coward, liar, hypocrite and fraud that she is, but then again you already knew that.
I will buy the book if Sara converts to the Anglican Church, becomes a priest and then becomes a Catholic…now baby THAT’S rouge. OR, if Sara hosts a hotdog eating contest on TeeVee, sans the buns, with mayo as a dip.
Another thought…This may be the opportune time for all in Wonkettedom to be guest analysts and review the show. A what??
Will she go all Tom Cruise and jump on the couch?
Will she go all rogue……and what would that be like?
Will she even show up and if she does will she bring Meggy Staplemouth?
Always only questions also too be about this you betcha ex governor.
Lilybart: the disgust with the Obama administration has nothing to do with his color, is has to do with his policies which, if implemented, would be a disaster for this country.Thankfully, some Democrats are beginning to see the light and are questoning some of his more radical views.
Lilybart: the disgust with the Obama administration has nothing to do with his race, it has to do with his communist-like policies. Even some Democrats are beginning to see that Obama is so far left that the future of the country is in jeopardy if he is allowed to continue on this course.
terycarl: sorry for the double post….it didn’t register here the first time!!!
doesn’t palin know that chicago is part of the FAKE AMERICA!?
so. when is this taping and what hotel is she staying in?
