Sarah Palin likened to Joan of Arc in two-hour documentary film

The Undefeated, a movie charting Palin's rise from 'soccer mom' to vice-presidential candidate, draws parallels with French martyr

It might just be Sarah Palin's last chance to re-establish herself as a viable presidency candidate ahead of the 2012 US elections in the wake of a disastrous PR run. A new film commissioned by Palin, the former governor of Alaska, will present her as a Joan of Arc-like figure beset at every turn by vicious leftwing enemies seeking to thwart her ambition of reviving the conservative legacy of Ronald Reagan.

The Undefeated has been shot by rightwing film-maker Steven K Bannon, who met the documentary's $1m costs from his own pocket. Palin initially reached out to the director with the aim of recruiting him to work on videos pushing her cause, but Bannon offered to make a feature-length film instead.

Rife with religious imagery, the movie will chart Palin's rise from Alaskan "soccer mom" to vice-presidential candidate. Drawing on content from Palin's book Going Rogue: An American Life, which has sold more than 2m copies, the film will seek to explain her decision to step down as governor of Alaska following her unsuccessful run alongside John McCain in 2008.

Perfect!! :rofl:

:)

LOL, Fumesucker!

It's just the continuation of the grift.

:shrug:

:shrug:

"The Undefeated", in which alternate reality is that the case...a more accurate title would be more like "I got my ass kicked so bad I quit"...

Please Sarah, run...i want to see the look on your face when Mittens, Newt and Ron Paul pile on and SHRED YOU TO PIECES...

:rofl:

There is no similarity - unless Sarah Palin is hearing voices.

Firstly...other than the few braindead Palinistas out there, I can't see anyone with a functioning braincell who would spend a dime to go see this comedy. Maybe if its so bad maybe it'll make it to a "worst of" festival. Then what kind of DVD sales are there? (Other than the WorldNut daily giveaway). I suspect we'll hear about how there's a "lamestream" media attack and more victim bullshit. When its all said and done, this "movie" will end up in some cold dark storeage room...a reminder to the dude who blew all his money on what a major sucker he was. This "film" may make "Atlass Shrugged" look like "Gone With The Wind"...

I haven't seen any of his films, but his association with that den of nasty snakes tells me everything I need to know about him.

when it comes to that part of the story where she gets burned at the stake.

Sarah isn't willing to make that kind of sacrifice...

And Catholics? However, I'm okay with burning Palin at the stake, however. (I'm kidding, of course, for the humor-impaired)

about Repub and the French....

:)

She is delusional, hears voices in her head telling her she's going to save the world, when in the end she's just headed for the guest spot at a bonfire.

Joan of Arc :

Eyewitnesses described the scene of the execution by burning on 30 May 1431. Tied to a tall pillar in the Vieux-Marché in Rouen, she asked two of the clergy, Fr Martin Ladvenu and Fr Isambart de la Pierre, to hold a crucifix before her. A peasant also constructed a small cross which she put in the front of her dress. After she expired, the English raked back the coals to expose her charred body so that no one could claim she had escaped alive, then burned the body twice more to reduce it to ashes and prevent any collection of relics. They cast her remains into the Seine.<57> The executioner, Geoffroy Therage, later stated that he "...greatly feared to be damned."<58>

If that's not the modern Republican in a nutshell I don't know what is. Lose an election? No problem, just say you didn't. Sarah didn't lose. See? She's "Undefeated"! Ronald Reagan? Why he cut taxes and lowered the deficit. There was never a terrorist attack in America under George Bush's watch, which of course gave him time to locate the weapons of mass destruction. It really is beautiful. If reality doesn't quite fit our agenda we simply "create our own reality".

But the real point is that Caribou Barbie is a weapons-grade narcissist, DSM-IV Exhibit A. And I can't figure out why so many of these sycophants and hangers-on are paying for her first-class ticket on her ego trip.

I wouldn't put it past her.

"Atlas Shrugged Part 1 of 3 1", the Palin Film, and Ben Stein's "Expelled."

:evilgrin:

way to get herself out there. The religious right will eat it up then before long the tea leafs will be read then they will realized they have been had at their expense and of course ours. The message of hate to divide the country will have been accomplished. She won't win but her effects just like in AK will be around for many years. What the country who has sense tried to do is unite this country but the teabaggers won't hear of it.

If she's undefeated,that is.

the GOPers tie her to a stake with lots of firewood stacked around her? Guess they could have a Palin Roast...

The only thing I don't get is the title. As I recall Palin was defeated pretty soundly.

because last time I checked - that was DEFEATED

Anybody got a light?

She is totally delusional, but my guess is she's going to run. Why else do this vanity piece?

I'd pay to see that!

I've always thought Joan of Arc had some huge mental problems, what with all those voices and shit...

they go over like a lead balloon. A million dollar failure.

the only difference being that Rob Reiner INTENDED "Spinal Tap" to be funny!

Like in "The Producers." Maybe it's intended to fail horribly. In any event, I expect it to fail horribly.
