Poor private Mary Cheney is now writing a half-million dollar book

[CatWoman]

Well that was quick. Six months ago she was an innocent private wallflower, now she's hawking her name for half a million bucks.

Gee, mainstream media, didn't we tell you so? Didn't we inform you that in 2002 Mary was selling photo ops at gay Republican fundraisers for $500 a pop (i.e., pay Mary 500 bucks and she'll let you snap a photo with her)? But no, the MSM fell for the "Mary is a private citizen, how DARE you ask any questions about her?" line.

Now we know that what the Cheneys REALLY meant was "how dare you ask any questions about her and not pay half a million bucks first." I guess they always knew what Mary was, they were just haggling over the price.

My favorite line in a second story on the topic is Mary Matalin's incredibly self-loathing comment, so apropros for a book by Mary.

3. As if she's writing it herself...

These book deals are just a way of "rewarding" people. Who the hell paid $26 bucks for those books by Ari Fleischer or Christie Whitmann?

I love this quote from:

(new york times on Ghostwriters)
...Basketball legend Charles Barkley complained that he had been misquoted in his own autobiography. This gave rise to a niggling suspicion in some quarters that ghostwriters were churning out books with only minimal input from their nominal authors. Shocking! . . .

4. oh puuuuhleeeeze

:puke: I wonder if they will be buying that book in bulk so a free copy can be offered with a 1 year subscription to "Human Events" (simultaneously causing it to climb up the New York Times best seller list). snicker.

5. Who is the market for this book?

self-loathing lesbians who vote Republican and who know their father and mother's friends despise them? People who have no access to the thousands of books written by people with something to say? Other over-privileged, over-indulged progeny of the wealthy who have been given over-paid employment from Mummy and Popsy's friends?
Just who exactly is going to buy whatever Mary has to say?
And just how pathetic is their life that they're going to devote time out of their life to such a trivial pursuit?
The mind boggles.
