Have you read Sarah Palin's book

.
.

I just finished it.

As a weekly visitor tour local library, I managed to be the first to sign it out.

I have seen hundreds of posts on Palin, I imagine there are thousands - and most are negative.

I am not challenging the validity of posters views or comments, but I am interested in how many managed to or plan to read the book.

I'll admit there were parts of the book that I disagree with, but on the whole I found the book to be - -

interesting.

So I thought a poll may be an idea.

DU'ers would make up half of her audience.

"Keepin' the enemy close" don'tcha know...

I exploded my face in a microwave oven instead.

she and her family lead, so no I will not be reading it.

I don't plan on getting around to that one either.

Boy, I learn something new every day around here!!

If I wanted a grammar lesson, I'll go back to grammar school!!

A lot.

:rofl:

She's not clever enough to compose an inscription in a greeting card on her own. :rofl:

scanning through it quickly i decided i probably would never read it.

have raves about the twit now, about how poorly she was treated, how everything was spun against her, poor little sawah, etc. So, I asked if I could borrow it to figure out how to counter this crap. I know, fighting an uphill battle, but still.

Reading someone else's synopsis doesn't give you your own informed opinion.

My thoughts on my reason for reading it was that Palin, or someone like her COULD be the next leader of the USA.

I wanna know how people like her think, even if it infuriates me.

After Bush, I believe anything is possible down there - -

and heck, it ain't just down there, it's spreading -

How do we justify our Harper sleaze . . ?

oh my . .

But I'm not a fan of fiction.

...but I also don't comment about the book either. Well, I guess I just did...but not about the content. The content of her talking points, but not he content of her book. So I won't be reading it because I really really don't feel like it.

I'd rather read through a stack of National Enquirer's first, or even the back a single cereal box a thousand times.

I confess, I'd like to read it, but I'm not ABOUT to buy it, and I'm sure the list at the library is super-long.

I was sorta surprised that there was not more slamming of Democrats; oh yeah there is some, but it's not a theme in the book.

I was also surprised that there was not a whole lot of defensive stuff about the "goings-on" during her campaign; again, there is some, but once again it is not a pervading theme throughout the book.

There's a few surprises in there - I think it's worth a read for those with an open mind - mind you, there's more than a few spots in there that will really piss off many, especially Democrats.

The book pissed me off more than a few times, but I don't regret reading it.

AND, if your library is in a Democratic area, I don't think the waiting list would be very long . . .

And no, I wouldn't buy it either.

I'm happy hers is in the near the bottom of the list.

:rofl:

from my family members. i don't need to borrow/pay for it.

Right after my dinner with elvis and my trip into outer space.

However, I do not like to fly, what with the intrusive security measures. I can't imagine what they must be like on space voyages:crazy:
:)

until I couldn't stand it anymore.

You really couldn't pay me to actually buy the book and read that drivel.

You do know the book is full of lies, don't you? Here are Mudflats' synopses of the chapters of the book, conveniently marked with "pants on fire" for every lie that is told.

AKMuckraker at The Mudflats read and synopsized the book so that the rest of us wouldn't have to. :)

All three pages, front cover, back cover, and the one blank page in the middle. :rofl:

Not! Buddy, you = fail. Go find a better pastime and let the adults handle the important stuff, and as nicely as I can say it, stop wasting DU's time & cyberspace.

Not to be confused with 'Going Rogue'. 'Going Rouge' was a hoot.

Knowing what the "other guys" say and think is a good defense IMO

I do not discount the possibility that Sarah, or someone like her could be the next CIC.

Best to know how they think methinks . .

And if indeed the book is full of lies as some claim, would be good to know if she ever gets back on the "ticket" so to speak.

I cannot help remembering the reigns of the BushGang - and their legacy is not yet over

(sigh)

lose my mind if I read her 'book' (calling that thing a book is laughable, tripe is more like it).

giving her attention?

Why would I have the least interest in anything she "wrote," if she actually wrote it herself?

Anyway, no, I have not and will not read it.

More important things to spend my time doing. There is such precious little time to devote to reading, I won't waste it on garbage.
