America’s favorite snow-trash dingbat is going to make personal appearances in a bunch of hellholes towns that nobody would willingly visit* unless they were trying to sell a book to a bunch of yokels whose idea of reading is an evening spent phonetically sounding out the decals on their 1:32 scale NASCAR replicas.
This book that Sarah Palin’s did not write is called America By Hard-On and it is :
Written in her own refreshingly candid voice, America By Heart will include selections from classic and contemporary readings that have moved her-from the nation’s founding documents to great speeches, sermons, letters, literature and poetry, biography, and even some of her favorite songs and movies. Here, too, are portraits of some of the extraordinary men and women she admires and who embody her deep love of country, her strong rootedness in faith, and her profound love and appreciation of family.
So, basically: Reagan, Reagan, madlibs, knock knock jokes, Reagan, Red Dawn, Reagan, Night Ranger lyrics, Reagan, poems that start out: “There was a young girl from Wasilla”, Reagan, the “German’s bombing Pearl Harbor” speech from Animal House, 75 Crazy-Hot Sex Moves, a recipe for Frito-moose pot pie, and Reagan.
Along with appearances at real book stores like Barnes & Nobel (where employees will spend the evening futilely masking their contempt before going home and committing suicide because they have just seen the future and it actually doesn’t get better) Palin will also appear at your finer Sam’s Clubs and Walmart’s where her fans will also be also be able to pick up ten gallon resealable containers of deep-fried high fructose salty snacks to shovel into the gaping maws of their dull-witted obese still-working-on-that-GED-at-23 couch-bonobo children.
Also. Too. U-S-A.
*New Orleans excluded.

Fixed it for ya.
Dear Mr. TBogg,
The bitterness level of this post gave me wood.
Regards,
Charles Krauthammer
There was a young girl from Wasilla,
Who sold herself as a moose killah.
Her failure to win
Didn’t wipe off her grin.
‘Cause her best trait was being a quittah!
Is the arrow there because the right’s boners are so small we’d miss them?
Well played.
She’s humiliating the poor boy, telling him that Todd’s goes out the HERE.
Rootedness?
I’m honored. I just couldn’t resist the cue!
“Are those starbursts in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?”
My turn!
There was a young girl from Wasilla
Whose DNA matched a gorilla
She angrily stated
Her parents had mated
With ancestors so not vanilla
So she’s
plagiarizingcobbling together a bunch of writing from other people and calling it her book. Typical.Like Bill Bennett before her, raiding and reselling stuff in the public domain. Does that make her a looter or a moocher?
“Ooooo these Christians are a greedy lot.” Mad Jack Duncan ub Paint Your Wagon
The point — that you liberals seemed to have missed — is that SARAH PALIN READS!
Fixed!
Not to get too prissy here, but how much of what Sarah copies is from the Bible?
No, her editor/ghost writer reads and selects bits and pieces that sound like what she would select, while making sure no copyright laws are breached. If it were up to Sarah, the book would have ended half-way through a middle chapter.
Your characterization of those “flyover” cities and towns is elitist. Folks shop at WalMart because it’s all they can afford. Moreover, a good chunk of those cities are democratic and voted for Obama, and yes, democrats also shop at WalMart.
Sarah is the GOPs go to CUCILF
“Crazy Unelectable Candidate I’d like to ,,,,”
Alaskan.
Wiggle room when the ghostwriter steps forward?
Or simply an indicator of the depths to which we’ve sunk that the press release for a book with her name on it has to include the information that she wrote it?
If it wasn’t for the fact that she’s two years older than Newt’s current wife Calista Bisek, I’d almost suspect that Gingrich would want her underneath him on his 2012 ticket. They could be grifters together!
gawd, loves me some good snark on a friday.
“The venues include the giant book chains — Borders, Barnes & Noble and Books-a-Million. But the former Alaska governor will also sign books at all-American locations like Wal-Mart, Sam’s Club, Costco and Kroger.”
Bookstores are so not all-American, I see.
There was a young girl from Wasilla
A grifter, an idiot with the charm of a gorilla
She winks and she nods
Stiffening the conservative rods
But for me, I’ve had more than my filla.
Which doesn’t actually state that Palin wrote it.
Damn, TBogg, you forgot all the exclamation points!!!
This imagery is deeply disturbing.
Although I’d bet he really does call it “his 2012 ticket.”
I am from one of those flyover areas and I can assure you that it (and most of its brethren) is a deeply conservative pocket of tea baggers and stating the obvious is not elitist. As a matter of fact, most of those areas don’t even get visited by the conservatives unless they’re trolling for votes. Making the Walmart shoppers think that they are the only “real Americans” is just a tool for Palin and her ilk.
Have you seen the trailer for her “Sarah Palin’s Alaska” series on TLC? I swear there’s a moment where she viciously slams her daughter’s face into a birthday cake.
Yes, really. What the hell?
Said daughter…Willow? Washday? Wrangle?….pops right back up with a fixed, baffled smile on her face, but still….
Well, she is pandering to an audience that produced these results:
I’d say Palin is not misunderestimating the American public.
So the powers that be have been informed that you want your alt caption feature back, haven’t they?
I second that. The opportunity for supplemental behind the scenes photo snark is just too great to ignore.
Jackass 3D premiered at NYC’s Museum of Modern Art, if memory serves.
According to the kleptomaniac plutocratic oligarchs who now rule this country, we are all in flyover country.
There was a young girl from Wasiller
(Who’s roughly as wise as Joe Miller)
Her book’s mostly cribbed,
‘Cept the part that she fibbed,
And horny male Gops hope to drill ‘er
