NEW YORK - You know the title, now see the cover of Sarah Palin's "Going Rogue."

The former Alaska governor's memoir, a top-seller online weeks before publication, will feature an outdoor shot of Palin, wearing an American flag pin on her red fleece top, eyes turned slightly from the camera as she smiles confidently into the horizon, a patchwork of Alaska blue sky and clouds behind her.

Palin says, she “can see Russia from her front porch”.

Since you put that in quotation marks, can I assume you have a credible first-hand source for that?

Or have you been staying up too late on Saturday nights?

RM...dag gummit...Tina Fey said 'I can see Russia from my house...' Not the real Sarah Palin (though Russia IS visable from many parts of Alaska). For the record, Gov. Palin also did NOT bring a flute to the Biden Debate either...

[Reagan Man]

Bring it on!!! LOL

[PennsylvaniaMom]

LOL...as an early political admirer of Gov. Palin...may I say her defenders (those like me) make the PUMAs look tame.

[Ready4Freddy]

She’s not an elite, she actually WORKS for a living.

Doing what? She quit the last 2 jobs she had, didn't she?

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Occassionally, people unprepared to agree with super-majority conservative opinion on Palin post on Plain threads. Big deal.

It's a damned big deal when minions of Axelrod and/or RINO operatives troll the Palin threads seeking to undermine her credibility as a viable Conservative contender for 2012. We've all seen these posts and usually they get blasted for what they are.

Consequently, your comment above is disingenuous at best.

[Ready4Freddy]

You're comparing Palin's competence to Obama? ROFL

No. Neither she nor Obama have demonstrated any competence.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

Palin says, she “can see Russia from her front porch”.

She never said that. Tina Fey did on SNL.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

And she doesn’t appear to be any better a liar than the current resident. She was up to her ears in real problems in AK, and quit her job because of them.

I really hope that we can come up with a viable candidate other than her. She’d be an embarrassment as prez.

[Ready4Freddy]

Did Palin ever use AK’s proximity to Russia in re: her foreign affairs experience?

[EternalVigilance]

I’ll walk where angels fear to tread and say that the pic on the cover doesn’t look that rogue-ish.

[upsdriver]

Who are on your list of candidates competent enough to be president?

[Reagan Man]

Sarcasm my dear!

On a serious note. Palin obviously borrowed part of her new book title from the Reagan autobiography, An American Life. A smart decision on her part. But lets not get carried away.

[Virginia Ridgerunner]

So, I guess that enormous record-setting pipeline deal with Exxon that she single-handedly negotiated in June was a direct result of her incompetence....

[Extremely Extreme Extremist]

No. Neither she nor Obama have demonstrated any competence.

What do you mean by "competence?"
She has executed the offices she has held for 17 years in good faith and at a level that exceeded her predecessors.
Now I understand that you want to believe the Tina Fey version of Palin but it's not going to fly here.

[PennsylvaniaMom]

Oh...R4F...not getting enough attention are we???

Say ‘hi’ to the kiddies over Kos later!!!

[70th Division]

Actually you are wrong again. She was a Governor which means she ran something other than her mouth. Obama did not. She was a Mayor, same thing. She is the Commander in Chief of the only stand full time National Guard unit. The missle battery that guards Alaska from Russia.

Apparently you do not read much. She was attacked by the left on a full time basis. She spent 1/2 Million defending her self. And AND all the suits were dismissed. ALL OF THEM!

I would have quit too. She can fight slander as a governor. Now she can fight back with a defamation suit if they continue with the frivolous suits. And she can raise money for conservative candidates and for her self for a potential run. Do not be short sighted here.

The left hates and fears Sarah. They defecate them selves when she is around. They want to destroy her. THEY ARE VERY SCARED! She draws a crowd. She relates to people. She raises money. So you on the left should be very scared.

[Ready4Freddy]

Single-handedly? Wow.

[Big Giant Head]

And had even less political experience than the current resident. And she doesn’t appear to be any better a liar than the current resident. She was up to her ears in real problems in AK, and quit her job because of them. I really hope that we can come up with a viable candidate other than her. She’d be an embarrassment as prez.

LOL! Wow. I want some of whatever you're drinking/smoking. Now off to read the rest of the thread...

Hey Freddy...

Russia (left) and Alaska (right), with the Diomede Islands in the middle...

And don't forget about the classified briefings she regularly received from the Alaskan Air Defense Command and DoD by virtue of her role as governor.
