Oh how the mighty crazies fall.
Tea party favorite Sharron Angle is spending thousands of dollars to self-publish an autobiography about her life and values. [...]
As a self-publisher, Angle has control over the design and editing of her book, titled “Right Angle.” The Nevada Republican is hoping for an April release.
Just drop by her house and she’ll have one of the grandkids print you off a copy! It was dictated to them them the past few weeks, and they jotted it down in crayon, so it’ll probably be perfectly copyedited.

"and then on Thursday, I saw a cat. I didn't like that cat, because it was brown. Stupid illegal Mexican cat…. but then I thought the cat looked kind of Siamese"
What – to crappy for even Regnery to buy?
Which is saying aLOT.
Can I pay her for the book with a chicken? Oops, wrong Nevada crazy lady.
Howz about a duck?
Why a duck? Why-a no chicken?
Shit I thought it was the same lady. Well, keep fucking that chicken I guess…
That's one book that'll never have any pages stuck together.
I assume it'll have all her wisdom accumulated over the course of her life. So in other words, one page cannot by definition stick together.
Apparently it was even too weird for Marvel Comics.
Losing to Harry Reid is not a superpower.
Oh yeah? Then show me someone else who could have done it.
Someone whose name doesn't rhyme with "Shpooamar Blahdafi"
She's come a long way since the old Wonkette story: "Sharron Angle Forced To Self-Read A Book."
I'll wait for the movie.
Sharon Angle to be played by the ever lovely Smurfette.
I'm voting for Gary Busey as Angle, Steve Buscemi as Reid, and Ted Nugent as the Second Amendment.
Isn't the book always better than the movie?
I'm pleasantly surprised she didn't turn to second-amendment solutions to make someone publish it.
You know who else self-published an autobiography about their life and values?
Carrot Top?
L. Ron Hubbard?
The Marquis de Sade?
Bill Bennett?
Ted Kaczynski?
was it Sarah Palin's "My Struggle"?
Including a detailed account of Hitler's heartbreak over Eva Braun's affair with an Inuit masseuse?
Mein Alaskampf I-II
Gilgamesh?
Anyone with presidential aspirations?
Hitler! Hitler! It's fucking Hitler! Why can't you people see what he's talking about?
Easy on the throttle/spittle there, big guy/gal. And who or what, exactly, is the "it" that's f*^#ing Hitler?
Hopefully it is a huge demon with a giant dick made of fire and thorns.
Alastair Crowely?
Oh Noes…A Teabagger™ with a Commodore PET and dot-matrix printer screeds a manifesto
What, she couldn't just tweet this out in under 140 characters?
You say that like it's a bad thing — now she's an author and a publisher. Time to update the old C.V.!
And a book binder. Next up, candlestick making.
Well you have to salute her pluck. Do you know how difficult it is to get supplies for a mimeograph machine?
snnnnniiiiiffffffffff mmmmm smells like bananas!
Keep plucking that chicken, Sharron.
Based on the kind of crap that Regnery and its subsidiaries dump on the market from brain dead right wing fucknuts this must be one of the worst manuscripts ever produced in whatever language it is written.
Surely it has been translated from the Olde Cuntish.
Book stores will stock it in the "Mental-Health Disorders" section.
"The Nevada Republican is hoping for an April release"
Happy April Fool's Day!
That is one long happy ending.
When I was in Cuba many years ago, they had these open-air used book markets in Havana. The problem was selection. You'd see something like a lawnmower manual, a three-volume set commemorating the 1977 visit of the Prime Minister of Comorros, and then nothing but oceans of Che Guevara's "On Revolution." They must have printed billions of them. It took me a while to figure out why every other Cuban seemed to be hawking the exact same book (other than limitless supply and a comical unfamiliarity with basic capitalism). Then it finally clicked: chronic shortages of toilet paper.
And now, at long last, you see the point of my post.
She'll need the big 64 box of Crayolas. Maybe two, since she'll be using a lot of 'burnt umber' on teh brownez.
She doesn't possess the fine motor skills needed for the 64 box of Crayolas. She is still at the Palmer stage and needs the So Big Crayolas.
No matter how many times it hasn't worked out well for her, she always eats "the ones that say they're food".
More like: "Off on a Tangent" than "Right Angle" if you ask me.
She was going to title it "The Protocols of the Elders of Juárez", but her intended audience wouldn't buy a book with Messican in the title.
Aren't all autobiographies about the author's life? C'mon, NPR, you've still got Joan Kroc's money to hire editors with!
She looks sort of Asian in that picture on the NPR page, no? You all look sort of Asian to me!
I'm Asian by injection!
Other title ideas:
A Mind That Lost Itself
Self-Loathing in Las Vegas
It's Not the Heat, It's the Stupidity
SHARRON: The Second R Stands for Right
Viewing the World Through A Right-Angle Lense
and the first R is for retard?
Sounds pretty obtuse to me.
Yet oblique.
Definitely not a cute angle.
Don't worry – she'll sell 10,000 copies to her campaign and then give them away….what a scam.
Sharron, the hardest part is stapling the pages together so don't make it too long.
But how much will she pay Victoria Jackson to play her in the adaptation?
Ah, self published books. I bet Amazon is just waiting with bated breath for the pre-orders.
"Obtuse Angle"
/fixed
You. Beat. Me.
"Shart Angle – More than Just Hot Air"
I smell a book burning!
"Write Angle"?
"Try Angle"?
"Angle Soft"? (for the TP'ers)
I tried Angle once. As expected, it tasted like hate and cheap perfume.
When this hits the bookshelves, I will go to my local Barnes & Noble. I will move half the copies to the "Psychology" section and the other half to "Lesbian Erotica". You're welcome.
My husband likes to pick up Coultergeist's books and leave them in the mens bathroom.
'Angleberries' is more to the point.
Today is the first time I've ever been happy about the fact that my small desert town in Nevada doesn't have a bookstore.
Whatsamattah – Regnery not interested?
Now that was just plain mean.
Why, thank you.
The article bloatedly says Angle recently "contracted the book with the leading self-publishing company." Judging from this leading self-publishing company's web site, it looks like I could simply go online and "contract" my own autobiography of Sharron Angle in a matter of seconds.
"Contract" means it's contagious?
Through irresponsible behavior, you know.
Impossible that there aren't enough teatards willing to postpone a trip to the bingo parlor to drop a Jackson for this. Either it's a bluff in response to a lowball figure from a publishing house, or it's a scam.
Between the self-publishing costs and the fee for a ghost-writer, writing a book can get really expensive!
I thought "Obtuse Angle" might be more accurate, but I'm just a stoopind liebrill.
"Eww! There's Christine O'Donnell all over my book!"
Far Right Angle would probably be more accurate, honestly.
You say forced to self-publish. As though she had no choice but to print the damned thing.
She is self-publishing of her autobiography??? OMG She's going to run against Barack Obama as liberal conservative
That's the sequel. From Every Angle.
Is she going to self-pulp it as well?
Little Miss Troll-Face has been forced to "do" for herself most of her life, seeing as how even the Arizona male has some standards in the area of fuckability, so; no surprises here.
It is with apology to Wonkette that I actually like the clever title of her book. Sad and pathetic as it may be.
