Sarah's Little Book Selling Vacation
Sarah, Sarah, Sarah.

Half of us watch you for the same reasons that we were glued to the screen wondering how Wile E. Coyote would mismanage his latest Acme purchase. Another 40% of Americans watch you because there is something unnerving, scary, yet riveting in the thought that you had the chance to be one heart beat away from the presidency. The remaining 10% are brain damaged, ultra-religious, super conservatives or seriously deluded "morans" (perhaps a combination of all those groups) who truly support you for president.

And now you venture to the lower 48, (states. Really, Sarah, we have that many on this continent. The nonAfrican continent) to peddle a book written by a crazy religious freak writer who believes in Creative Design, thinks teaching of Evolution is a sin, an who believes that the Rapture will be arriving any day now. What an explosive combination, a foolish, egotistical media whore, and a book writer who is a jezus freak.

Luckily, for most of the thinking, rational population that resides in the Lower 48, AP has taken on the distasteful task of fact checking your book. Your biggest complaint? That a hard-nosed, street wise, political expert warned that Gwen Ifell was going to "fuck" with you? and all you could think about was his use of "the f-bomb?"

Here's my prediction. She has a whirlwind book tour scheduled. She is skipping all the hard cities, and sticking to smaller venues. Safe venues. Places that will not allow cell phones, recording devices or video. The real Sarah, the one we saw on Poor Insecure Katie Couric (who Palin felt sorry for?) will raise her dim-witted head. And she will quit in the middle of her book selling tour, complaining that the bookseller breached its contract.

As for quitting the tour? Ha. We will see vintage Sarah. It is always someone else's fault. Sarah will blame others for her failed tour. She will sue the bookseller for some weird breach of contract (How DARE they force me to skip all the real cities?) and claim that they screwed her great opportunity to tell her side of the story.

4. DING DING DING! ChairmanAgnostic, you're our grand prize winner!
The remaining 10% (watching Sarah) are brain damaged, ultra-religious, super conservatives or seriously deluded "morans" (perhaps a combination of all those groups) who truly support you for president.

That, fortunately, is the bottom line--Sarah's "base" is too small to matter to anyone but a national media too lazy to cover stories like this one. As for her book, the object of the game is to sell as many copies before the holidays before it hits the remainder bins.

9. Now that's just begging for someone to uncover any "youthful indiscretions" Vincent may have had
in her past.

10. She 's coming to my neck of the woods Dec 4th
to the red part of the city in a really red county. Plano, TX..specifically, at an independent bookstore I have never heard of that's over in the Mcmansion part of town. The store owner said that her people called him, he didn't call her people.
It's in the middle of the day on a Friday.


She probably knew better than to go into Dallas and anything outside the McMansion part of this city could be hit or miss if people actually showed up.
Per a local article, she will not be speaking and she is only signing books and not "memorabilia".

11. Like a new T-shirt, her colors will run and fade at the first
sign of a raindrop.
