Audacity Of Going Roguer: Sarah Palin Signs New Book Deal

» 5 comments

This morning is not lacking for Sarah Palin news. From Politico:

HarperCollins announced a SECOND Palin book yesterday (currently untitled) that ‘will be a celebration of American virtues and strengths. Palin will reflect on the key values-both national and spiritual-that have been such a profound part of her life and which continue to inform her vision of the future. The book will include selections from classic and contemporary readings that have inspired her, as well as portraits of some of the extraordinary men and women she admires and who embody her love of country, faith, and family. She will also draw from her personal experience to amplify these timely (and timeless) themes. … The deal was negotiated by Jonathan Burnham, Senior Vice President and Publisher, Harper, and Palin’s attorney, Robert B.Barnett of Williams & Connolly.

Robert Barnett is, of course, the ‘attorney’ who negotiates all of D.C.’s big book deals. I can’t be the only person dying to find out what the “selections from classic and contemporary readings” will include. Needless to say this sounds a lot like the Palin version of Audacity of Hope, and I suspect the publication date, when it’s eventually announced, will be just in time for the 2011 holiday season.

    Oh, goody, maybe this will, at the very least, promote reading skills on the right. Kind of like when most of us honed our reading skills in grade school with comic books.

    Jim R, you and others on the left are so predictable…
    How does a woman who has more in her resume of job qualifications then most of the people in Washington before she ever entered the pubic forum …. scare the crap out of you and the others on the left.

    Where are the largest percentage of Obama voters?….Inner urban City.
    Now, Where is the lowest grades and High school drop out rate in the country at? Inner urban City.
    So, do your math on where the basic smart people are….

    The RED states spend less money on education then the BLUE states do…I think that is JIM R’s point. It has been that way traditionally here in America, like ALWAYS.

    A blue state will build a school and a red state will build a church….it’s a a fact. It has been that way for YOUR entire lifetime, PUREFREEDOM.

    PUREFREEDOM you might want to google that statistic.

    She went to 5 different colleges before she ever graduated with a BA degree in journalism. She was a mayor of a town of 7000 people and damned near bankrupt it. She quit half way through her term as Governor of Alaska. What a resume. Could you name some people in Congress with a worse resume?
