>”Sure, Palin, with her history of political intrigues, hardline anti-abortionist stance, firm creationist beliefs and self-styled ‘hockey mum’ image, has never left the media wanting for juicy stories”<

Could someone here please explain to me what the heck the author is talking about with this statement. I love the descriptions, hardline, firm, self styled.

Is Sarah Palin burning down Abortion Clinics now? Is she to Abortion what the Earth Liberation Front is to Logging? Does she force people to recite Genesis until they collapse from exhaustion? Were there no Hockey Moms until Sarah Palin coined the phrase?

Liberals just can't help themselves with the drama. It's all about them telling everyone who will listen that it's all about us. Narcissism is something they all feed off of.

The really odd thing to me is, if his goal was to make money off a Palin book, why did he blow it? Just think if his book had been 180 degrees out from what was expected and he had lavished stellar praise upon Palin?

It would have become a best seller overnight and the printing presses could not keep up with the demand. McGiniss could not make all the media interviews demanded of him and there would now be a movie in the works. It is amazing how some people cut their nose off to spite their face, not to mention their financial well being.

“Why are liberal hacks so obsessed with Palin?”

Because one of the chief psychological needs of liberals and elitist types is the need to feel intellectually superior to other people. I have discovered this from debating with Obots for a few years. Sooo, if there is somebody who is not especially book smart, then they pile on sooo they can show off how much useless stuff they know.

My father used to say that your average teacher could not fix a car, but would always feel smarter than a mechanic because the mechanic had dirt and grease under his finger nails. I am starting to appreciate how much stuff he was right about. (But don’t tell him!!!)

Sooo, picking on Sarah Palin because she talks funny or something, or doesn’t know much about a lot of academic stuff, is a easy way for them to feel superior. But, I would like to see Maureen Dowd kill a moose and fry it up in a pan.

Is that the number? 6000? Interesting. I wonder who many it takes to make it onto the NYTimes bestseller list. Probably not many these days...

And is she a firm creationist? I never heard that.

Also, another mistake this author makes - as far as I know, Track Palin does not appear in Sarah Palin’s Alaska.

During the presidential race, actress Tina Fey’s uncanny Saturday Night Live impersonations of Palin became a global sensation. Really? How were these uncanny impersonations brought to the globe's attention?

The only time I've ever seen (or had the opportunity to see) any part of SNL was watching a brief news clip of the real Sarah Palan on SNL (with some Sarah Palin inpersonator in the background). Mildly amusing, but sensation level low.

There are 6 billion people in the world who do not have the ability to watch Saturday Night Live - Not many people know that.

I know, that makes me a freak... someone needs to notify Attackwatch.com

I'm on it. How do you want it phrased:
1. Some lunatic on FR seems to like Sarah Palin better than Obummer.
2. Some hateful lunatic on FR believes in God and thinks God is not for the liberal agenda.
3. Some dangerous madman on FR will probably not vote for Obummer or any other Democrat.

God Bless

Yea he was in an ep. The ep was about Todd’s fishing venture, and how they want to pass it on to Track, but Track has to prove he’s willing to work it.

Indeed he does; there was the episode where they were working the family fishing business. I remember him specifically, and Todd as well, with a more hands-off role, allowing a more hands-on role for Track.

It's a relatively new disease that infected even this site.

It can be fatal if not treated for properly.
