New Palin biography aimed at 9- to 12-year-olds

JUNEAU, Alaska – You might call it Sarah Palin's introduction to the cubs.

A biography of the former Alaska governor and self-described "mama grizzly" is set for release in September by Christian book publisher Zondervan.

"Speaking Up: The Sarah Palin Story," is one in a series of biographies aimed at 9- to 12-year-old readers. Others feature 2007 Heisman Trophy winner Tim Tebow and U2 frontman Bono.

Kerr said the book begins with Palin's childhood in Alaska and shows that "with guts, character, determination and unwavering faith in God, even an ordinary person can change the world."

There are aspects of Palin's life that the book shies away from. For example, Kerr said, there's no mention of her teenage daughter Bristol Palin's pregnancy.

"We tried to stay away from the super-heavy stuff," Kerr said.

to encourage them to work hard and study is indoctrination.

:puke:

Because they're the real followers of Hitler Youth propaganda techniques.

never mind he was the POTUS......the above trumps that

nt

Should really be the title.

Is that the title?

She's a total nutjob.

And the amount of time and money it's going to take to fix it just boggle the mind.

and immense air head change the world? God really didn't give her brains or a heart. Shes pure evil...

I'm concerned about the idiots who follow her and think she has a message, a plan, an idea, a brain. :crazy:

Truly frightening! :scared:

So, it works.

It could as awkward as the Palin family Christmas dinner-especially in 2008

Progressive organizations should be targeting the same age group with biographies of FDR, Mother Jones and Paul Wellstone.

Of course, Republicans play for keeps.

In what sense, Charlie? Super-heavy and Sarah Palin is an oxymoran. Her photo could be used as an example next to the entry for "shallow" in the dictionary.

Perhaps the book is directed at 9- to 12-year-old readers because Palin HAS no material above that age range...

WHAT heavy-stuff?

I think I just threw up in my mouth:puke:

...is the gray matter in Quiterella's head!

She's just one of many ignorant spokesmodels who do litle to change anything. THe only "world" she's changed is her own. She's made herself rich with her snarky babble.

and besides, she's well read with "all" those books and zines she's read: "all of them"

She has been pivotal in the GOP's effort to prepare America for the next civil war. Right now, I do not dare go to a Veterans of Foreign Wars meeting because, thanks to that insufferable woman, I really think I will AT MINIMUM get my ass kicked. I am a Democrat, I am a liberal and I work for what she calls the Lamestream Media. Therefore I Am The Enemy. I'm even more worried about my publisher's wife; she's the corporation's attorney, she writes a column for our paper that regularly pisses off the locals (as a good column should) and she's not very big.

That's about the intelligence level her supporters show at the events where she's spoken.

on just how stupid she is. Then maybe she is really aiming to her base, those with reading skills of 9 - 12 years olds.

That would take effort.

I don't think quitting and cheating people out of money are positive...

uninformed masses.

Up is down....wrong is right.

Yeah, like Adolf Hitler and Genghis Khan changed the world. :eyes:

Bad enough she is so pompously ignorant. Bad enough she is milking her fan club for millions. But so, so sad that we have probably a hundred million who think this f*cking dumb idiot has anything of value to offer them.

Our country is f*cked right now. This dumb bitch can point it out. However, she has NO answers, only the same vision the lamest of us might have. Yet, there are so many lame ass, ignorant morons in this country that she is elevated to being "someone worth paying attention to", when in fact, she is probably as dumb as any yokel from the back woods of ID, AL or any other back woods part of the USA.

What a shame on us.

Word to the wise: she keeps on going - she's not going away. It's fun to pick on her and insult her but she seems to be gaining - not losing - supporters. Time to take her serious and admit she's no fool. She's not afraid of the left or the right. She's not apologizing. Might be time to accept that she has influence. Or not...

the other 30% were Bush's base anyway.

More of her followers are sure to be disappointed by her incredibly lousy performance attempting to talk immigration issues on O'Reilly's show (she was an absolute embarrassment). Check out the DU thread (w/video) on it that was started by Turborama Sat. night:

and that she's not going away. But I don't think her support is growing and I think she's a fool. Take her serious? Yes. Insofar as that she is a real threat.

While the goat in "The Pet Goat" eats everything in its path, Palin reflects stupid commentary on every minor detail of her boring life.

It will be a book well worth avoiding.

them early in life...so much easier than messing with adult. See Sarah run kids, she runs from the adults because they have hateful questions dontcha know!

She is trying to write above her intellectual level.

And this is also prepping the 12 year olds when they become 18 in 6 years. So let's see. If Obama survives this term, (No help from Faux) and gets re-elected that means he will be out in 2017. And lo and behold those 12 year olds will know who Sarah is already, and be there to vote for her. But it could back fire I suppose. If these kids knew that Sarah shoots mama Grizzles, mama Moose's, mama Deer, mama Wolves. I'm sure there were times she wanted to shoot mama Bristol too. (She's so HEAVY!)) LOL! Maybe more of them will be turned off by it. Sarah is so disgusting.

The book of X...who knew she could write anything beyond an...X

from a helicopter, leaving that poor mama wolf cubs alone, defenseless and hungry. Yeah--that should go over really well with children.

Maybe a nice kitty would make this a better thread.

Get at the kids while they are young and aspiring to stupidity.

What self-serving tripe. Do you think the book will mention how she quit her governor job halfway through, or is that some of the "super-heavy stuff" they are staying away from?

:puke:

Nuff said :)

n/t

when I find it in the trash somewhere I'll fish it out and show it to my ten-year-old, to teach him what complete crap looks like.

of these 3 people only Bono is a good role model. Great musician and philanthropist too. Tebow=radically religious. Palin=poor politician and irresponsible parent (Bristol anyone?) School libraries should NOT use taxpayers' money to order these Christian religious propaganda books!

A blast from the past--remember this from two years ago?
