Just heard that every book store in the US has sold out of 'Going Rogue'
My neighbor said he saw it on FOX news. He said there were crowd shots showing hundreds of thousands of people holding tea bagger signs in front of what FOX said was a book store In Washington DC, trying to get a copy of the new book. They also said that people had come to the book store from as far away as Boogerglob Yugoslavia! The report also stated that some of these people had been in line since last November. More at 11:00...

16.  Hannity showed footage from the 9/12 march and said it was from Bachman's teaparty thing.
So whatever crowds they show, note the weather and the signs.

18. Will "Going Rouge" among Christians be more popular than the Bible? Bigger than Jesus?
Did we hear Sarah Palin remark that "Going Rogue" will be read by more Christians than the Bible?

Is it irresponsible to speculate? It would be irresponsible not to.

Edited on Tue Nov-17-09 04:39 PM by Hubert Flottz
out of the wilderness. She said that she'd gotten a sure fire sign from the big scary first dude upstairs that nobody ever sees. She said she'd noticed that she too had a big old bush that was often burning, but wasn't being consumed.

Sarah is gonna be rich!

She can finally get her lips done and that boob job she has been longing for. Also, she can get all the help and maids that she needs. She will never have to work another day. She really showed those people that picked her second to the black girl in the beauty contest. Yep! She done good!

35. Royalty is probably not more than 15% of the $29 list price
It's selling for about $14.50 or half off.

Some of the comments on Amazon are hillarious.

By Gen. JC Christian, patriot (Tremonton, UT United States) - See all my reviews

There are many kinds of truth. There are truths based on facts, truths based on faith, and truths based on something that sounds as if it should be true (truthiness). Then there's the kind of truth we find in Sarah's book: stories and concepts that become truths simply because she states them. She's a lot like our Lord and Savior, Glen Beck, in that respect.

25. Wait two days and THE DOLLAR STORE will have Loads of copies right next to Karen Huges' book,
O'Reiley's book, Colter and all the other GOP political books who are bought on the down low just to push up sales figures.

You can tell which books had manipulated figures, just look at what ones they dump onto the dollar stores.

"An unprincipled, deceitful, and unreliable person; a scoundrel or rascal."

In other words, a thief and scammer.

59. It has even sold out on Kindle!

There are simply not enough electrons in the world to accommodate the demand for digital copies of this book!

60. FOX Snooze is now reporting that many people have time-traveled here from the future
in order to be able to read 'Going Rogue' again for the first time.

They say that eleventy gazillion copies have been sold in the future.

It's true.

70. Some big old tall dude named Klaatu was just on the...
situation room saying that if he couldn't get a copy of that book after flying all the way to Earth, that he would stop the entire planet and everything on it, by high noon tomorrow. He said Lou Dobbs told him he could pick up a copy today and he's really upset.

80. Some guy just called her the Tonya Harding of politics for the way she exacts revenge on ...
... former friends and allies.

I tuned in to Andrea Mitchell briefly this morning and it was the usual: one Repub and one Dem "strategist", whatever that means. The Dem said that and the Repub actually almost laughed, saying "You really came loaded for bear! -- but I feel I must defend her now."

It was a funny moment.

102. FOX said not to buy those bootleg copies...
they said they were dropped all over the US night before last by an entire squadron of those Iraqi drones that Bush & Dick warned us about back in 02! FOX said that they had heard reports that most terra-ist groups around the world had been counterfeiting 'Going Rouge' for years just waiting for a chance like this to unleash just such an attack on the weak and the unsuspecting.

110. that's sexist!
shame on you for reporting on facts about Palin! that's sexist and you'll pay! Jeebus doesn't like facts.

Also, too, Going Rogue is the Number One Best Seller of All Time and Will Sell Even More When She is Reserected! Sinners!!!



Pre-Photoshopped Runner's World Photo Shoot (you know, the one she signed a waiver for) -- cuz this one ain't sexist:

111. I knew there was prolly more to this story than we heard about
Edited on Wed Nov-18-09 07:41 AM by Hubert Flottz
on the TV...

My neighbor came over and borrowed a pot of coffee and my breakfast and he let me in on some top secret information that he heard on the repub grapevine. He said that his daughter's boyfriend's girlfriend had an uncle who knew someone over in Virginia at the CIA. Anyway, my neighbor said that the word is at the CIA, there is a simple explanation why there was a sudden buy-up of all those copies of 'Going Rogue'. It seems that the CIA tried reading the text of that book nonstop for hours on end to terra-ist suspects abroad, instead of their standard GESTAPO type interrogations okayed and approved by the neocons awhile back. The story is that most of the suspects turned in their own mothers after just ten minutes of this new type of organized browbeating. So, the CIA grabbed up 67890987676565432 copies just yesterday morning alone. Now my neighbor still freely admits that he's a hard core born again republican, so you can take this report to the bank, but it just may bounce like a bad check.

Now, also, too -- Palin has a version where she reads her book aloud to you!!! I can see this working as a great foreign policy credential -- er, torture implement -- for her future!

113. Sarah's voice is the fingernails on the blackboard X a million.
She reminds me so much of this Jehovah's Witless hypocrite that I know and can't stand...shrill to the max and "always right" no matter how wrong she is.(I tolerate the lady because she married a friend of mine, but I'm always glad when she's headed out the door.)

118. A GREAT Idea...
Living here in West Bye Gawd Virginia, you're not a very well respected citizen if you don't have an old rusty car up on cinder blocks with it's wheels off, in your front yard. That may very well be where so many of the books they sent here to WV went? I'll bet every freeper in the area replaced those cinder blocks with 'Going Rogue' blocks. I hope the colors of the books don't clash with everyone's satellite dishes.

The book contains a secret code when you hold it up to the mirror and read ever other word, about how Jesus and the Holy Family traveled to Alaska in ancient times to seek refuge and are the ancestors of the Palin bloodline.
