Liberal media obsession over Sarah Palin's book Going Rogue backfires
PDOP ^ | 10/02/09 | J Brown

Posted on 10/02/2009 6:30:05 AM PDT by Jabrown

From the fringe left Daily Kos to mainstream media outlets such as CNN and MSNBC learned a tough lesson on Thursday as they awoke to find Sarah Palin's Autobiography Going Rogue: An American Life atop the pre-order best sellers lists and daily sales boards for Amazon, Barnes and Noble and nearly every other book retailer websites. The announcement of Palin's release date on Wednesday caused an outbreak of attacks on the former Vice Presidential candidate that would lead you to believe that she had announced a Presidential campaign rather than a book release.

Thousands of Internet and print articles attacking Palin flew into circulation while unrepentant liberal networks such as MSNBC filled every available minute of airtime with their obsession over the Palin. The magnitude of the attacks was ridiculously overwhelming, especially in light of the nations current economic and national security woes. Adding to the ridiculous nature of these attacks were the reality that the book will not...

Mine is happily on order.

I hope to have it signed by the author one day, shortly after making the maximum possible contribution(s) to her campaign.

“Is a hatred of the values and political beliefs of Palin or a deeper rooted fear that a silent majority of the nation shares those same conservative values? Most likely, it’s a combination of both.”

exactly. The moment the very attractive Palin stepped onto the public stage dressed in a feminine way, with her Down’s syndrome baby in her arms, she became the left’s biggest nightmare. Her decision to bear and then show that baby openly is the source of their deepest derision of her intellect. and the women who attack her are far more bitter than the men, who egg it on like a girl fight.

Add that to the fact that Mark Levin’s book has sold over a million copies shows that conservatism still lives despite what the MSM wants us to believe.

Liberal media obsession over Sarah Palin's book

Liberal obsess over Sarah because she is a threat to them. Let's hope that the threat materializes into reality in the not to distant future.

WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF PINKOS AND RINOS. THROW THEM ALL OUT!!

Half her sales will be to liberals who plan to go through the book with a fine tooth comb to find something to hang her with. I hope she put in some bait for them to learn some new things, and a few impossible scavenger hunts to keep them busy, like "I hid my youthful diary in a green box near the summit of Mt. McKinley."

The main reason we conservatives love Sarah is because she has the same effect on lieberals that sunlight has on werewolves. I can’t name one other potential Republican candidate who even comes close.

We were driving through a remote hilly area of Mexico several years ago and came upon an overturned truck loaded with fresh vegetables and fruit. Hundreds had come down out of the hills with baskets and buckets in hand to gather the “free” cargo and engage in the feeding frenzy. The driver was lying nearby obviously having been thrown from the vehicle and bleeding profusely. Nobody seemed to notice. Learned a valuable lesson that day about human nature.

Me either. She drives them absolutely ape because she is the anti-thesis and refutation on fall of their tired, liberal, entitlement logic and positions.

Just like sunlight on werewolves.

yeah,I remember trips to Mexico years ago when I was told not to bring “folding” money when “visiting” smaller locations along the Baha coast.....because the local merchants didn't have change...if you purchased something that cost 10 pesos,you got more items until.. (then ya wanted,)until they were satisfied with the purchase...*smiles*

Me too. I'm going to buy this one - it'll make the book review people at the New York Times cringe... that's worth the price of the book.

I will buy a copy later. Reason: Sarah and this book is driving the libs crazy, and every time they spew out their venom on her the book sales surge, and they can't figure it out.

Therefore, I will wait on another of their vicious rampage and purchase one then. Let them know it is actually them that are contributing to her success, BIG PLUS is that we actually LOVE her and her graceful ways.

We always took some “folding money” in case we were in an accident or got stopped by the police. Amazing how quickly they would apologize for their error when your license was wrapped in $20.
