Edited on Mon Nov-02-09 03:38 PM by Botany
Driving from Wisconsin to Ohio today my radio scanned to the Rush Limbaugh show ..... An add came on from News Max and they were selling Palin's book $4.95 w/ a subscription to their publication too.
I guess the jacket price for the book is $29.95 ...... the promo kept saying that Palin's new book is already a best seller ...... :rofl:

13. What's weird is it's been the #1 bestseller on Amazon since the day they began taking pre-orders. |

22. And News Max, along with other right wing organizations |
|
wouldn't buy truckloads to use as promotional items in order to inflate initial sales figures. That surely couldn't happen. Could it? :shrug:

6. How many people who follow Palin have read a book? |
|
If they do read, can they comprehend or are they capable of critical thinking?

12. Oh, some librul journalist will hit her with that "gotcha" question |
|
But our Sarah's too smart by half to fall for that obvious trap. Watch her deflect those pesky questions with "In what respect are you asking if I've read my own book?" Also.

17. That seems harsh toward DUers, considering the number of threads |
|
that continue to appear about Sarah and the rest of the family.

23. Sorry I should have stated "followers" as apposed to follows. A poor choice of words on my part. |
|
I do follow stories about Sarah, and I read a couple books a week since I abandoned broadcast media. A poor choice of words on my part. Sarah does not seem to want to go away anytime soon.
A former friend whom I know can read obviously does not, he gets his news from Fox and an odious source called newsbusters. He recently told me he does not read books on politics and has recently quit reading even his French news magazines because they praise Obama and degrade Sarah Palin.

|
and, yes, I read ... although chances are good I won't be reading her book.

21. It might be interesting to read, in a watching a horrific freeway car crash sort of way |
|
but if I ever read it I will pick it up used at the Goodwill store so I don't contribute one penny to Palin's bank account.
