Going Rogue

Well my son got me Sarah Palin's book Going Rouge and although I'm not an advote reader I'm starting it. My son addressed the present to "The Great Republican". Yeah he's a smart ass.

Anyway I'm only on chapter 5 so don't hold your breath to how it ends. It's gonna take me awhile...

Well it starts out pretty cool. It's all about Alaska and it brings back a flood of memories for myself. This women is speaking from the heart and she was more of a sourdough than me that's for sure.

 

Re: Going Rogue

I have something in common with Sarah. She cam up to Alaska in a blue Rambler and I came up in a pink one. lol

 

Re: Going Rogue

I think your son might be the only one to buy her book... I saw it advertised on TV the other night for $4.95

I'm guessing it hasn't made any best sellers lists if they're just about giving it away already.

 

Re: Going Rogue

Uhh no

Going Rogue Goes to Top of Book Sales Chart - ArtsBeat Blog - NYTimes.com

 

Re: Going Rogue

Although the sales have dropped....




Going Rogue:An American Life -- 300,000 Copies Sold on the First Day!

 

Re: Going Rogue

Let's compare, Sarah Palin's book sells nearly $500,000 books in the first week.

Nancy Pelosi's autobiography released in 2008, at the supposed height of the Democrat's rise to power, sells 2,737 copies in it's first week.

Keep laughing and making jokes.

 

Re: Going Rogue

Actually if you include the sales to mass market retailers like Wal-Mart, Sarah sold 700,000 books in the first week. The Nielsen BookScan does not track those sales.


And let's not compare Sarah to other female ploiticians like Hillary Clinton, Hillary even had a sex scandle with her husband to drive her sales. Sarah smoked even Hillary, I believe you could call that making the best sellers list, lol.


*****************

I understand why Liberals would be scared of Sarah in general because she really is "of the people" while they just pretend to care about the little guy but the thing that has always surprised me is the raw anger and hate most liberal women show Sarah.

You would think a smart, successful, and moral woman who has shown that you can be strong and still remain feminine in life would be admired by all women even if they did not agree with all of her political stands but that just is not the case. Every Liberal women's groups have come out against Sarah with pure attacks and even say if she would have been elected into office as the Vice-President, it would be a massive step backwards for all women around the word....


Really?

A step backwards?

How do they figure that?

It seems to me the only way a woman is considered a "good" woman to a Liberal woman is if that first woman is willing to kill babies in the womb. Everything else does not matter from the looks of things.

 

Re: Going Rogue

A lot of idiots buy books these days.

 

Re: Going Rogue

At least they can read, the average Democrat voter can't.

 

Re: Going Rogue

That is made clear by Pelosi's book sales.

 

Re: Going Rogue

Hopefully, those photos of Sarah without makeup will sink her political ambitions.

 

Re: Going Rogue

I thought you wanted a third Independent party hugo. She might not be the one to run it but she could defiantly help it get off the ground.

 

Re: Going Rogue

We don't need another tax and send out checks party. Where's Arthur Bremer when ya need him?

 

Re: Going Rogue

Palin is a lot more conservative than 99% of the people currently in office. I would support her or anyone like her in a heart beat.

The problem with the independants is they are too far detached from reality to ever offer a National canidate. They can have local support sure, but that is the end of their ability. Independants should be supporting real conservatives, did you know most independants supported Obama? A massive number of libertarians supported Obama, not just with votes but they were very vocal in their support of him.

With independants like that, nobody will ever take them seriously on the big stage.

 

Re: Going Rogue

Ohhh so that's why hugo voted for Obama.

Yeah but it would be nice to get a really conservative movement up and running.

 

Re: Going Rogue

Palin's record is more liberal than GW Bush's was when he was governor of Texas. In 2000 conservative Republicans voted overwhelmingly for GW and we ended up with 8 years of reckless spending and government growth. I'll vote for someone in 2012 who believes in limited government. That ain't Palin.

I ain't even talking about independents. There are Republicans that actually believe in limited government and are not simply political opportunists jumping on the bandwagon, ie Sarah Palin. Y'all gonna vote for a commie just cuz she's cute with her makeup on.

 

Re: Going Rogue

I don't know where your getting all this Sarah for big goverment stuff but I think your dead wrong along with the commie comment.

 

Re: Going Rogue

It's great to be a commie!

 

Re: Going Rogue

I nominate Dr. Rand Paul for GOP Presidential candidate in 2012.

 

Re: Going Rogue

I'll second that.
