“Going Rouge” isn't a spoof at all but a collection of essays about Palin put together by Richard Kim and Betsy Reed, editors at liberal-leaning weekly The Nation

Reduse, reuse, recycle. Then again, that's not very green of them to reprint this collection that few bothered to read in the first place!

I look forward to the followup article where they count the book sales of these two books. Didn’t Susan Estrich do this same thing with an Ann Coulter book? How did that work out?

Absolutely disgusting but not shocking. Obama’s approval ratings are at a -13..liberals are shaking in their boots knowing their time is almost up

“Going Rouge” isn't a spoof at all but a collection of essays about Palin put together by Richard Kim and Betsy Reed, editors at liberal-leaning weekly The Nation, Entertainment Weekly reported. It includes work by regular Nation contributors, including Katha Pollitt, Katrina vanden Heuvel and Naomi Klein."


This won't be the first time Katha Katrina and Naomi have collaborated!

The smart way to deal with this:

Have Sarah’s book publisher bring a lawsuit against the other company, for deliberately copying the basic elements and layout and introducing the book at the same time as theirs to confuse and take advantage of people looking for Sarah’s real book, not their spoof book.

It’s too close to the original. Plenty of case law out there. It’s a cheap chinese knock-off.

Does “The New York Daily News” refer to Geraldine Ferraro as a “failed vice presidential candidate?”

“F” all of these putrid moonbats.

When one of Hillary’s books was prominently displayed at Borders I went over and sneezed on them. Might have to trot that old tactic out again.

Palin Derangement Syndrome is very real. The libs must really be threatened by her.

All the more reason for me to support her.

I think the big box booksellers won’t be too happy when dealing with pissed off customers returning the books....

All this crap did for me was to drive me to Amazon today to order another copy of Sarah’s book(at 9.00 per copy on Amazon, engaged in a book war)it is a bargain. I am sure Sarah’s publisher will sue these jerks for copyright infringement and get a court order to halt release of the other book.

Obviously Sarah Palin inspires passion in her adversaries. I would take it as a compliment if I were her.

Sarah’s decision to appear on Oprah probably means she has decided that she is ready to put the McCain disasters behind her, bypass the MSM, and present her case directly to the public. If she succeeds, books like this won’t matter a whit.

Interesting! A few weeks ago when the media first reported on her book, I happened to catch the story on Good Morning America (by the metro-sexual dude). He called the book ‘Going Rouge’. When Diane Sawyer corrected him and said the book was called ‘Going Rogue’, they both excused the error by saying that it was spelled ‘Going Rouge’ on the teleprompter.

Now, it is appearant to me that the MSM had done this on purpose.

"When the failed vice presidential candidate's memoir hits shelves Nov. 17"....

Why is it that Jack Kemp, Joe Lieberman and John Edwards are never ever referred to as "failed vice presidential candidate....." unlike Palin, who is repeatedly smeared this way ad nauseum?

Simple solution:
1) Go to book store
2) Pick up book and pretend to peruse it
3) Replace book cover down
4) Repeat as needed
Did this with anti-Palin magazine at supermarket, no longer at check-out!
Enjoy!
